An asset was purchased for $100,000 on January 1, Year 1 and originally estimated to have a useful life of 12 years with a residual value of $10,000. At the beginning of the third year, it was determined that the remaining useful life of the asset was only 4 years with a residual value of $2,800. Calculate the third-year depreciation expense using the revised amounts and straight-line method. a.$20,550.00 b.$21,550.00 c.$21,050.00 d.$19,550.00
Answer:
A
Explanation:
The following steps would be taken to determine the answer
Calculate depreciation expense given the initial information calculate the accumulated depreciation by the third year. Accumulated depreciation is sum of depreciation expensesubtract the accumulated depreciation from the cost price of the asset. This would give the book value calculate the depreciation expense using the new information and the book valueStraight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life
($100,000 - $10,000) / 12 = $7500
Depreciation expense each year is $7500
Accumulated depreciation = $7500 x 2 = $15,000
Book value at the beginning of year 3 = $100,000 - $15,000 = $85,000
($85,000 - $2800) / 4 = $20,550
How does risk influence the rate of interest?
Answer:
Interest rate risk directly affects the values of fixed income securities. Since interest rates and bond prices are inversely related, the risk associated with a rise in interest rates causes bond prices to fall and vice versa. Interest rate risk affects the prices of bonds, and all bondholders face this type of risk.

The answer is "1960.58"
Explanation:
Through the partnership, the importance of the penis is increased
[tex]w = 0.01 a^x[/tex]
In which an element is gradual and x the year is no.
For [tex]2015 x = 2015 - 1909 = 106[/tex], and at that time [tex]w = 3200[/tex]
thus
[tex]3200 = 0.01 a^{106}\\\\320000 = a^{106}\\\\\ln(320000) = 106 \ln(a)\\\\12.67 = 106 \ln(a)[/tex]
[tex]\ln (a) = 0.1196\\\\\to a = e^{0.1196} = 1.127[/tex]
[tex]15,000 = 0.01\times 1.127^x\\\\15,00,000 = 1.127^x[/tex]
[tex]\ln(15,00,000) = x \ln(1.127)\\\\[/tex]
[tex]6.17 = x\times 0.1196\\\\\to x = 51.58\\\\\to Year = 1909 + 51.58 = 1960.58[/tex]
Suppose that it has just been projected that, because of a number of technological innova- tions, your firm will need 20 percent fewer clerical employees within the next three years. There are currently 122 clerical positions in the company, split between three departments of equal size. Retirements at this level are projected to be roughly 2 percent per year. Annual vol- untary turnover and involuntary turnover for Department A is 2 percent and 5 percent, respectively; Department B is 3 percent and 3 percent; and Department C is 5 percent and 0 percent. Do you project a labour shortage or surplus in the next three years for clerical positions
Answer:
There will be a labor shortage
Explanation:
number of clerical staffs present = 122 staffs
number of clerical staffs needed in 3 years
= 122 - ( 20% * 122 ) = 97.6 ≈ 98 staffs
next : lets project the number of employees in next three years considering the voluntary and involuntary turnovers
= 122*(1-2%)^3 * (((1-7%)^3)/3 + ((1-6%)^3)/3 + ((1-5%)^3)/3)
= 95.4 ≈ 94 staffs
since the projected number of employees is < number of clerical staffs needed in 3 years, There will be a labor shortage

What is an easement? What is it called when an easement is obtained against the consent of the landowner? What type of easement can be created by two adjacent landowners where one of them is “landlocked” by the other landowner?
Answer:
1. An easement is the right given to a person by law to utilize a particular part of another person's land.
2. When an easement is obtained against the consent of the landowner it is known as Prescriptive easement.
3. An easement that is created by two adjacent landowners where one is landlocked by the other landowner is called Easement appurtenant.
Explanation:
An easement is the lawful right of a person to use another person's property. Ingress, egress, and drainage are common reasons why an easement might be needed. When a piece of land does not have access to a roadway, then an easement might be required.
Prescriptive easement occurs when a land has been used by another person who is not the legal owner for up to twenty years without the consent/knowledge of the original owner of the land.
Easement appurtenant occurs for example when a person cannot access his own land with passing through another person's land. An easement by necessity can be created in such situations to solve the problem.
A note payable was executed by Sterling Inc. to Miami Finance Company. Sterling Inc. used $768,000 of its accounts receivable as collateral for the loan. The contract provided that Miami would advance 85% of the gross amount of the receivables. Sterling Inc. continues to collect payments for the receivables and the cash from customers is then remitted to the finance company. The cash remitted is first applied to the finance charges, with the remainder applied to principal.
During the first month, customers owing $524,800 paid cash, less sales returns and allowances of $20,480, originally recorded as a refund liability. The finance charge at the end of the first month was $4,480. During the second month, the remaining receivables were collected in full, except for $5,120 off as uncollectible. Final settlement was effected with the finance company, including payment of an additional finance charge of $1,920.
Required:
a. Record the entry for Sterling to record the secured borrowing.
b. Record the entries for Sterling to record (1) the collections and (2) the payment to Miami for the first month.
c. Record the entries for Sterling to record (1) the collections for the second month and (2) the final payment to Miami.

Faux Trees Company produces artificial Christmas trees. A local shopping mall recently made a special order offer; the shopping mall would like to purchase 230 extra-large white trees. Faux Trees Company is currently producing and selling 20,000 trees; the company has the excess capacity to handle this special order. The shopping mall has offered to pay $160 for each tree. An accountant at Faux Trees Company provides an estimate of the unit product cost as follows:
Direct materials $51.61
Direct labor​ (variable) $3.80
Variable manufacturing overhead $1.00
Fixed manufacturing overhead ​$4.00
Total unit cost $60.41
This special order would require an investment of $5,000 for the molds required for the extra−large trees. These molds would have no other purpose and would have no salvage value. The special order trees would also have an additional variable cost of $8.26 per unit associated with having a white tree. This special order would not have any effect on the​ company's other sales. If the special order is​ accepted, the​ company's operating income would increase​ (decrease) by:_______
a. $15679 decrease.
b. $15,679 increase.
c. $16,708 decrease.
d. $10,679 increase.
Answer: $16,925.90 increase
Explanation:
Company already has the excess capacity to handle this order so the fixed costs will not be included as they would have already been incurred.
Cost of manufacturing the trees would be:
= Variable cost + Fixed cost
= ((51.61 + 3.80 + 1.00 + 8.26 for white tree) * 230 trees) + 5,000 for molds
= (64.67 * 230) + 5,000
= $19,874.10
Incremental revenue = 230 trees * 160
= $36,800
Incremental operating income = 36,800 - 19,874.1
= $16,925.90 increase
Note: Options might be for a variant of this question.
Assume the following for the town of Boone: The town has a total population of 60,000 people, of which 2,000 are under 16 years of age or are institutionalized; 4,000 are full-time students who are not employed and are not seeking work; and 50,000 are employed. The rest of the people are out of work but have been actively seeking work within the past four weeks. What is Boone's unemployment rate?
Answer:
Unemployment rate= 7.4%
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the labor force. The labor force is the sum of employed people and unemployed people over 16 actively looking for work.
Labor force= 60,000 - 2,000 - 4,000= 54,000
Now, we can calculate the unemployment rate, using the following formula:
unemployment rate= (unemployed people / labor force)*100
unemployment rate= (4,000/54,000)*100
unemployment rate= 7.4%
On average, your firm receives 65 checks a day from customers. These checks, on average, are worth $39.90 each and clear the bank in 1.5 days. In addition, your firm disburses 38 checks a day with an average amount of $89.50. These checks clear your bank in 2 days. What is the average amount of the collection float? $2,473.80 $3,401.00 $3,890.25 $5,101.50 $6,802.00
Answer:
$3,890.25
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the average amount of the collection float
Using this formula
Collection float =Average Checks received ×Average checks worth×Bank checks clearing numbers of days
Let plug in the formula
Collection float =65 x $39.90 x 1.5 days
Collection float = $3,890.25
Therefore the average amount of the collection float will be $3,890.25

Absorption costing unit product cost=$108 + $51 + $7 + $39
Absorption costing unit product cost= $205 per unit
Therefore The absorption costing unit product cost was:$205 per unit
Wilde Software Development has a 12% unlevered cost of equity. Wilde forecasts the following interest expenses, which are expected to grow at a constant 3% rate after Year 3. Wilde's tax rate is 25%. Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Interest expenses $80 $95 $140 What is the horizon value of the interest tax shield
Answer: $400.56
Explanation:
Horizon value = Tax shield in 3rd year * (1 + growth rate) / (Required return - Growth rate)
Tax shield in year 3 = Interest expense * tax rate
= 140 * 25%
= $35
Horizon value = 35 * ( 1 + 3%) / (12% - 3%)
= $400.56

Vaughn Manufacturing manufactures a product with a unit variable cost of $100 and a unit sales price of $186. Fixed manufacturing costs were $480000 when 10000 units were produced and sold. The company has a one-time opportunity to sell an additional 1000 units at $130 each in a foreign market which would not affect its present sales. If the company has sufficient capacity to produce the additional units, acceptance of the special order would affect net income as follows:______.
A. Income would increase by $40,000.
B. Income would increase by $8,000.
C. Income would decrease by $8,000
D. Income would increase by $140,000
Answer:
The correct option is A. Income would increase by $40,000.
Explanation:
Note: There are some errors in the data provided in this question. The errors are threfore fixed by providing the complete question again before answering the question as follows:
Vaughn Manufacturing manufactures a product with a unit variable cost of $100 and a unit sales price of $176. Fixed manufacturing costs were $480000 when 10000 units were produced and sold. The company has a one-time opportunity to sell an additional 1000 units at $140 each in a foreign market which would not affect its present sales. If the company has sufficient capacity to produce the additional units, acceptance of the special order would affect net income as follows:______.
A. Income would increase by $40,000.
B. Income would increase by $8,000.
C. Income would decrease by $8,000
D. Income would increase by $140,000
The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:
Additional units to be sold = 1000
Selling price per unit of additional units to be sold = $140
Unit variable cost = $100
Expected change in income if the special order is accepted = (Selling price per unit of additional units to be sold - Unit variable cost) * Additional units to be sold = ($140 - $100) * 1000 = $40,000
Therefore, the correct option is A. Income would increase by $40,000.

If equilibrium is achieved in a competitive market the deadweight loss will equal the sum of consumer surplus and producer surplus. the deadweight loss will be the same as the opportunity cost of the last unit of output sold. the deadweight loss will be maximized. there is no deadweight loss.
Answer:
there is no deadweight loss.
Explanation:
In a perfect competition, there are many buyers and sellers of homogeneous products, and there is free entry and exit in the market.
This simply means that, in a perfectly competitive market, there are many buyers and sellers (price takers) of homogeneous products (standardized products with substitute) and the market is free (practically open) to all individuals or business entities that are willing to trade all their goods and services.
Generally, a perfectly competitive market is characterized by the following features;
1. Perfect information.
2. No barriers, it is typically free.
3. Equilibrium price and quantity.
4. Many buyers and sellers.
5. Homogeneous products.
Examples of a perfectly competitive market are the Agricultural sector, e-commerce and the foreign exchange market.
Hence, if equilibrium is achieved in a competitive market then, there is no deadweight loss i.e a loss of economic efficiency due to a lack of balance in competing economical influences for goods or services.
Organizations with low turnover and satisfied employees tend to perform better. On the other side of the coin, organizations have to act when an employee's performance consistently falls short. Based on these concepts, organizations may distinguish between involuntary and voluntary turnover, recognize their effects on the organization, develop measures to encourage top performers to stay, and develop ways to manage the separation process fairly. Any organization wants to retain good performers and encourage or force low-performing employees to leave. There are two types of employee turnover. Involuntary turnover occurs when the employer requires employees to leave, often when they would prefer to stay. This action may potentially result in lawsuits and violence. Voluntary turnover occurs when employees initiate the turnover, often when the organization would prefer to keep them. These employees may retire or leave to work with different organizations. Both types of turnovers are costly because of subsequent needs to recruit, hire, and train replacements.

B. Involuntary Turnover
C. Employee at Will Doctrine
Answer:
Answer is explained in the explanation section below.
Explanation:
Voluntary Turnover:
Better Job: If an employee is offered a better job, he may choose to quit his current position.
Careers: If an employee is career-oriented and wishes to pursue higher education, he will willingly leave his employment.
Retirement: When an employee reaches the legal working age, he retires, which is referred to as voluntary retirement.
Involuntary Turnover:
Workplace Violence: An employer may decide to fire an employee who engages in workplace violence. This is what is known as spontaneous turnover.
Violating: If an employee is found to be in breach of the company's rules, he will be dismissed, resulting in involuntary turnover.
Employee layoffs: Forced turnover occurs when a company's employees are laid off in large numbers.
Employment at-will doctrine:
For some reason: This allows the employer to fire an employee for any cause.
Promise: Neither the employer nor the employee has made any commitments to each other.
Refusing to state the reason for the employee's termination: If the employer refuses to state the reason for the employee's termination,

Item 5 Required information Skip to question Current Time 0:00 / Duration 6:35 1x The Science Institute has three departments: Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. The institute's controller wants to estimate the cost of operating each department. He has identified several indirect costs that must be allocated to each department including $43,000 of indirect salaries, $4,500 of office supplies, and $36,500 of office rent. There are 500 students in the biology department, 200 in chemistry and 300 in physics (1,000 total students as the allocation base). The amount of cost that should be allocated to the Chemistry Department is
Answer:
$16,800
Explanation:
Calculation to determine The amount of cost that should be allocated to the Chemistry Department is
First step is to calculate the Cost to be allocated
Cost to be allocated = $43,000 + $4,500 + $36,500
Cost to be allocated= $84,000
Second step is to calculate the Allocation base
Allocation base = 500 + 200 + 300
Allocation base = 1,000 total students
Third step is to calculate the Allocation rate using this formula
Allocation rate = Cost to be allocated ÷
Allocation base
Let plug in the formula
Allocation rate= $84,000 ÷ 1,000
Allocation rate = $84 per student
Now let calculate the Allocation to Chemistry Department
Allocation to Chemistry Department = $84 per student x 200
Allocation to Chemistry Department = $16,800
Therefore The amount of cost that should be allocated to the Chemistry Department is $16,800
Barnes Company reports the following operating results for the month of August: sales $300,000 (units 5,000); variable costs $217,000; and fixed costs $70,000. Management is considering the following independent courses of action to increase net income.
Compute the net income to be earned under each alternative.
1. Increase selling price by 10% with no change in total variable costs or sales volume.
2. Reduce variable costs to 55% of sales.
3. Reduce fixed costs by $18,000.
Which course of action will produce the highest net income?
Answer:
1. $43000
2.$65000
3. $31000
Alternative 2
Explanation:
Computation for the net income to be earned by Increasing the selling price by 10% with no change in total variable costs or sales volume.
1. Calculation of net income :-
First step is to calculate the Current selling price
Current selling price = $300000/ 5000 units
Current selling price= $ 60 per unit
Second step is to calculate the New selling price
New selling price = $ 60 *110%
New selling price= $ 66 per unit
Now let calculate the net income
Sales (5000 units * $66 per unit) $330000
Less Variable costs ($217000)
