Present worth is $7,944 ( Considering some assumptions )

Depreciation is the reduction in the value of asset due to wear and tear. Depreciation is charged only on fixed asset on a straight line or on a fixed rate per year.

Computer and other hardware of $12,000 to be depreciated over 5 years with no salvage value

<u>Depreciation </u><u>per year = ( Cost of Asset - Salvage value ) / Useful life </u>

= ($12,000 - $0) / 5 = $12,000/5 = $2,400 per year

It is assumed that the assets are donated at the end of third year and depreciation of that year is fully charged.

Depreciation for 3 years = $2,400 x 3 = $7,200

Now As all these event happened in the past and it is assumed that we are standing at the end of year 3, the present worth of the all these depreciation is actually the future value of these deduction because it was made earlier.

Present worth of depreciation is as follows

Present Worth = [$2,400 x (1+0.1)^2 ] + [$2,400 x (1+0.1)^1 ] + [$2,400 x (1+0.1)^0 ] = $2,904 + $2,640 + $2,400 = $7,944

Third deduction was made at the date when worth is being calculated.

pogonyaev

Answer:

Scott Company

Journal Entries:

January 31:

Debit Payroll $80,000

Credit Salaries Payable $57,200

Credit Payroll Taxes Payable $22,800

To record the salaries and taxes payable.

Debit Salaries Payable $57,200

Debit Payroll Taxes Payable $22,800

Credit Cash $80,000

To record the payment of the salaries and taxes.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Number of sales employees = 5

Salary per month = $16,000 each

Withholding taxes:

FICA social security taxes of 6.2% = $992

Medicare taxes  1.45% = $232

Federal income tax = 16% = $2,560

Monthly Medical Insurance = $440

FUTA = 0.8% of the first $7,000 = $56

SUTA = 4.0% of the first $7,000 = $280

Total withholding tax deductions = $4,560

Payroll total ($16,000 * 5) = $80,000

Withholding taxes for each:

FICA social security taxes of 6.2% = $992 * 5 - $4,960

Medicare taxes  1.45% = $232 * 5 - $1,160

Federal income tax = 16% = $2,560 * 5 - $12,800

Monthly Medical Insurance = $440 * 5 - $2,200

FUTA = 0.8% of the first $7,000 = $56 * 5 - $280

SUTA = 4.0% of the first $7,000 = $280 * 5 - $1,400

Total withholding tax deductions = $4,560 * 5 = $22,800

Net pay = $57,200

I believe the answer is: by informing readers of the education options being described

By putting the phrase  "After high schools" ,  readers would know that the information that being put below the phrase would include the set of options/paths that can be done after graduation. In most career planning forms, it would contain information regarding college, scholarships, and the type of careers that can be taken with current high school diploma.

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

B. Portfolio B with E(R)=13% and STD=18%

Explanation:

The computation is shown below;

Reward to risk ratio = (15% - 5%) ÷ 20% = 0.5

The porfolio should be in line i.e.

= 0.05 + 0.5 × standard deviation

For portfolio A

= 0.05 + 0.5 × 25

= 17.5%

For portfolio C

= 0.05 + 0.5 × 1

= 5.5%

Portfolio B, the std is 18%

So,

= 0.05 + 0.5 × 18%

= 14%
