I believe it's cross examination (the interrogation of a witness called by one's opponent). But I'm not 100% positive.
Answer:
equipment 3,700
Explanation:
First we calcualte the values of the machine given up:
<u>traded-out assets</u>
purchased 23000
depreciation <u>20,000 </u>
book value 3,000
fair value 5,000
gain on disposal 2,000
This gain would be recognzie if there was commercial substance. In this case we don't have commercial substance. So it is deffered.
Value given up forthe new equipment:
cash 700
traded-out <u>5,000 </u>
total value 5,700
We subtract the deffered gain on disposal to get the accounting value for the new equipment:
deferred gain (2,000)
accounting value 3,700
The machine will enter the accounting with 3,700
journal entry
equipment 3,700
acc del 20,000
equipment 23,000
cash 700
Answer:
The interest rate is higher in the US.
Explanation:
The forward price is calculated using the following formula,
F= S ( 1+Rd / 1+Rf)^t
where,
- F = Forward rate
- S = Spot rate
- Rd = Nominal interest rate in domestic market
- Rf = Nominal interest rate in foreign market
- t = time in years
We consider that the domestic market is the US and the domestic currency is the USD. Thus, it is a direct quote where 1 EUR = 1.3 USD
The forward price ER is more than the Sport ER only when the interest rate in domestic market is more than the interest rate in foreign market and as a result, the value of domestic currency against a foreign currency in the forward market depreciates.
We can see this by the following example,
Say Spot rate is $1.3 per 1 EUR and the interest rate in US is 10% while that in Euro zone is 5%. When we calculate the forward ER we will see that 1 EUR will buy us more USD in forward (more than 1.3 USD)
F= 1.3 * (1.1 / 1.05)^1 => $1.362 PER 1EUR
Answer:
- Difference in scientific judgements
- A. Employers should not be restricted from outsourcing work to foreign nations.
Explanation:
The difference in opinion between these two is based on a difference between in scientific judgments because they believe that different things will happen in response to implementing a different form of taxes.
Regardless of what they think in the above regard, these economists are most likely to support the outsourcing of work if it is cheaper to do so because economists generally believe that the most efficient method of production should be undertaken.
