To determine what the depreciation of an asset using straight line method, the formula to be used is:

(Initial cost of machine – salvage value) divided by estimated useful life


So in this problem:

Initial Cost - $135000

Salvage Value – $15000

Estimated Useful Life – 5 years

Plug that in the formula


Annual depreciation = ($135000 - $15000) / 5

= $120000/ 5

= $24,000


The first year depreciation for the machine is $24000 because the company bought it in the beginning of the year. (So there is no need to divide this by 12 months)

To record this:

Depreciation Expense $24000

<span>          Accumulated Depreciation $24000</span>

Answer:

A)

Explanation:

Research studies indicate that U.S. producers gain more from tariffs than U.S. consumers lose.

Trava [24]

Answer:

b) surplus; shortage; up; fall

Explanation:

If the bond market and money market start out at equillibrum, and money supply is increased there will be an excess (surplus) of money over bonds.

That is more money to buy less bonds. The relative scarcity of bonds will result in a shortage (bond supply cannot meet demand).

As a result of the shortage price of bonds will increase because more people are looking for the scarce bonds.

Price of bonds has an inverse relationship with interest. As price increases interest rates will fall.

For example consider a zero coupon bond of $1,000, being sold for low price of $850. On maturity it will yield gain of $150.

If the price rises to $950 the yield will only be $50.

So as price increases and interest (yield) decreases, it will no more be attractive to investors and demand will reduce to meet the available supply of bonds.

mixer [17]

Answer:

6,000

Explanation:

The expected value from this investment can be calculated by possible values for random variables by multiplying them by their probability

DATA

Strong  = 30,000   , probability = 30%

Moderate = 10,000 , probability = 60%

Weak = -30,000 , probability = 10%

Calculation

Expected profit = Values x Probability

Expected profit = (30,000 x 30%) + (10,000 x 60%) + ( 30,000 x 10%)

Expected profit = 6,000 + 6,000 -6,000

Expected profit = 6,000
