For the purpose of accounting, there are three types of expenditure.
1) Capital Expenditure
It is the amount incurred
in acquiring long term assets like land, buildings, equipments (which
are used for the purpose of earning revenues). These costs are reflected
in the account of Property, Plant and Equipment.
2) Revenue
Expenditure
It is the cost incurred in one accounting year wherein the benefits
are also enjoyed in the same period only. It does not increase the
earning capacity of the business, instead, it maintains the existing
earning capacity of said business. This expenditure is recurring in
nature like salaries and wages, selling and distribution expenses.
3) Deferred
Revenue Expenditure
It is a revenue Expenditure which has been incurred
within the current accounting year but its benefit will be extended to a
number of years. This cost is charged to the Profit and Loss account.
Example of this is advertising cost.

Answer:
Book value= $51,875
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchase price= $80,000
Salvage value= $5,000
Useful life= 8 years
<u>First, we need to calculate the annual depreciation under the straight-line method:</u>
Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)
Annual depreciation= (80,000 - 5,000) / 8
Annual depreciation= $9,375
<u>Now, we can determine the book value at the end of 2019:</u>
Book value= purchase price - accumulated depreciation
Book value= 80,000 - (9,375*3)
Book value= $51,875
Answer:
Contribution per unit of Bran X = 51 cents
Contribution margin: 51 / 69 = 73.91%
Explanation:
<em>Retail price: 1.20</em>
retail margin of 35% --> thus the cost of good is 1.20 x ( 1 - 0.35) = 0.78
At this price the wholesalers trade to grosery store and others
wholesales margin 11.5% --> the price at which Alger sales the product to wholesalers:
0.78 x (1- 0.115) =<em> 0.6903 producer selling price</em>
Now from this, Horatio has the following variable cost:
variable manufacturing cost: 0.08
shipping and other cost: 0.03
sales persons 10% commision 0.06903
Total variable cost: 0.17903
Contribution per product: .6903 - 0.17903 = 0.51127 = 51 cents
