Answer:
The correct answer is letter "B": Extend the useful life of an asset beyond its original estimate by several years.
Explanation:
Ordinary repairs refer to routine maintenance that equipment and machinery need to work over its estimated useful life. <em>It does not aim to extend the life of the equipment but helps meeting the estimated time a company plans to use those assets.</em> In accounting terms, ordinary repairs demand to record a debit to an expense account and a credit to a cash account.
Answer:
A) price will increase and quantity increase.
Explanation:
An increase in demand means more customers are willing and can afford to buy a product. Holding the other factors constant, an increase in demand results in many potential buyers chasing very few goods. The competition for the few goods leads to an increase in their prices. The equilibrium point moves up the graph to a new higher position as a result of an increase in demand.
As per the law of supply, quantity supplied increases as prices rise. Profit motives drive all business establishments. As prices increase due to increased demand, suppliers will be motivated to supply more to take advantage of high prices.
Answer:
5.925%
Explanation:
For computing the cost of debt, first we have to determine the YTM by using the Rate formula that is shown in the attachment
Given that,
Present value = $1,050
Assuming figure - Future value or Face value = $1,000
PMT = 1,000 × 8% = $80
NPER = 20 year - 1 year = 19 year
= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)
The present value come in negative
So, after solving this,
1. The pretax cost of debt is 7.50%
2. And, the after tax cost of debt would be
= Pretax cost of debt × ( 1 - tax rate)
= 7.50% × ( 1 - 0.21)
= 5.925%
Answer:
Explanation:
When Leverett's exports became less popular, its savings, Y-C-G does not change. Reason being that, it is assumed that Y depends on the amount of capital and labour, consumption depends only on disposable income and government spending is a fixed extrinsic variable.
Since investment depends on interest rate, and Leverett is a small open economy that takes the interest rate as given, thus investment also does not change . Neither does net export change (This is shown by the S-I curve in the attachment).
The decreased popularity of Leverett's exports leads to an inward shift of the net export curve inward. At the new equilibrium,net exports remains unchanged, though the currency has depreciated.
Leverett's trade balance remained the same, despite the fact that its exports are less popular, this is due to the fact that the depreciated currency provides a stimulus to net exports which overcomes the unpopularity of its exports by making them cheaper.
b. Leverett's currency now buys less foreign currency, thus traveling abroad becomes more expensive. This is an instance showing that imports (including foreign travel) have become more expensive- as required to keep net exports unchanged in the case of decreased demand for exports.
Answer:
whether or not there are close substitutes for the products of the two firms
Explanation:
The law watches closely for mergers that actively seek to inhibit or totally annihilate competition in the market which will be harmful for consumers. Mergers such as horizontal mergers, vertical mergers tend to bring about a monopoly whereby sellers aim to coordinate in a such a way that there is an agreement amongst them and profit is ensured while market becomes less efficient.
