Nonflowering Plants. Some plants don't produce flowers and seeds. Plants such as ferns and mosses are called nonflowering plants and produce spores instead of seeds. There is also another group called the Fungi, that include mushrooms, and these also reproduce by spores.his process is sometimes called cloning because every new plant is exactly like the parent. One type of cloning uses cuttings --parts of plants that grow into new plants. Both stems and leaves can be used as cuttings. Another kind of cloning is grafting --the joining together of two plants into one.
Cancellation of Debt (COD) Income. Taxpayers in the United States may have tax consequences when debt is cancelled. This is commonly known as COD (Cancellation of Debt) Income. According to the Internal Revenue Code, the discharge of indebtedness must be included in a taxpayer's gross income.
If you exclude part of the recovery from income, you must include with your return a computation showing how you figured the exclusion. Example. Joe Smith, a sole proprietor, had gross income of $8,000, a bad debt deduction of $300, and other allowable deductions of $7,700. He also had 2 personal exemptions for a total of $7,900. He would not pay income tax even if he did not deduct the bad debt. Therefore, he will not report as income any part of the $300 he may recover in any future year.
