Answer 1

Income tax expense=Income before tax*Tax rate
Income before tax:
				$	$
Revenue:
Training charges					9000
Training fees related to Jan					33000
Total revenue					42000
Less:
Wages				24000
Utilities				7000
Depreciation expense-Building			(Note:1)	328
Depreciation expense-Equipment			(Note:1)	467
Advertising expense				290
Uncollectible accounts expense			(Note:2)	270
Total expenses					32355
Income before tax					9645
Income tax expense=9645*30%=$2894
Note:1
Building:
Depreciation expense=(Cost-Residual value)/Useful life
Cost=53000*80%=$ 42400
Depreciation expense=(42400-3000)/10=$ 3940
Depreciation expense for a month=3940/12=$ 328
Equipment:
Cost:
				$
Acquisition cost		(53000*20%)		10600
Refurbishment cost				600
Total				11200
Depreciation Rate=(1/Useful life)*2=(1/4)*2=0.25*2=0.50=50%
Depreciation expense=Cost*Depreciation rate=11200*50%=$ 5600
Depreciation expense for a month=5600/12=$ 467
Note:2
Uncollectible accounts expense=under 30-days old accounts not collectible*3%=9000*3%=$ 270
