Question: Please use 2 0 2 4 tax law Required: Please complete AAA Fast Plumbing's 2 0 2 4 tax return based upon the facts presented

Please use 2024 tax law Required: Please complete AAA Fast Plumbing's 2024 tax return based upon the facts presented below. If required information is missing, use reasonable assumptions to fill in the gaps. Ignore all AMT calculations and AMT related reporting items. Facts: Michael Rodriguez and Devontae Johnson have been life-long friends. Both Michael and Devontae started to work for the same national plumbing repair company immediately after graduating from technical college. After nearly a decade of working for that same company, Michael and Devontae decided to venture out on their own and form their own plumbing company called AAA Fast Plumbing Repair (AAA). They formed AAA as a limited liability company (LLC). Michael and Devontae each own \(50\%\) of the company. The company has been successful primarily based upon reputation and the fact that AAA is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Although AAA charges a premium for after normal business hour calls, most of its competitors will not perform services past 9 p.m. and, thus, AAA finds itself often as one of the only available choices for middle of the night emergencies. AAA has several employees and because of implementing technology solutions to aid in its call dispatch program, AAA has been able to expand its service area to now include a three-county area instead of just one. Information relating to AAA and its owners is as follows: Name of Company: Address: Company formed and started: Accounting Method: Tax-year end: Employer Identification Number: AAA Fast Plumbing Repair, LLC 1456 East Buena Vista Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 90001(has not changed since inception) January 1,2013 Cash December 3134-7652143 Members' Information:
