A company uses straight line depreciation for an item of equipment that cost $12000, had a salvage value of $2,000 and a five ye

timurjin [86]

Answer:

option (d) 2400

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Initial book value = $12,000

Salvage value = $2000

Useful life = 5 years

Thus,

Using the straight line method of depreciation

Annual depreciation = [Cost - Salvage value] ÷ Useful life

= [ $12,000 - $2,000 ] ÷ 5

= $2,000

Accumulated Depreciation for 3 years

= Annual depreciation × Time

= $2,000 × 3

= $6,000

Book value after 3 years = Cost - Accumulated depreciation

= $12,000 - $6,000

= $6,000

Remaining useful life = 2 years

Reduced Salvage value after 3 years = $1,200

Therefore,

Depreciable value of the Asset = Book value - Reduced salvage value

= $6,000 - $1,200

= $4,800

Revised depreciation to be charged every year

= Depreciable value of the Asset ÷ (Remaining useful life)

= $4,800 ÷ 2

= $2,400

Hence,

The correct answer is option (d) 2400

Questions

What is the company's cost of goods sold for the month?

COGS 33,000

What is the company's net income for the month?

net loss 4,333

What is the company's ending inventory for the month?

16,667

Missing Information:

It sold 8,00 units

Explanation:

manufacturing cost:

rent on factory 8000 +

factory workers salary 24000 +

direct materials 18000 = 50,000

cost per unit considering it produced 12,000:

50,000 / 12,000 = (4 + 1/6)

then, cost of good sold: cost per unit x units sold

(4 + 1/6) x 8,000 = 33,333.33

ending inventory 50,000 manufactured - 33,333 sold = 16,667 ending inventory

income for the month:

8,000 x 5 40,000

COGS - 33,333

gross margin 6,667

adv expense -5,000

admin expense -6,000

net loss 4,333

General Importers announced that it will pay a dividend of $4.25 per share one year from today. After that, the company expects

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

$12.93

Explanation:

First , find the dividend amount per year;

D1 = 4.25

D2,D3,D4,D5, D6 = 0

D3 = 2.2020(1.024) = 2.2548

D7 onwards = 2.35

Next, find the present value of the dividends at 12.6%;

PV (of D1) = 4.25/ 1.126 = 3.7744

PV (of D2 to D6) = 0

PV (of D7 onwards) today = (2.35/0.126) /(1.126^6)

PV (of D7 onwards) today = 18.6508 / 2.0381 = 9.1511

Add the PVs to find price of stock;

= 3.7744 + 0 + 9.1511

= $12.93

7. Time value of money.

8. Annuity due.

9. Perpetuity.

10. Ordinary annuity.

11. PMT/r.

Explanation:

Financial accounting is an accounting technique used for analyzing, summarizing and reporting of financial transactions like sales costs, purchase costs, payables and receivables of an organization using standard financial guidelines such as Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).

Some of the financial terminologies used in financial accounting are;

1. Amortization Schedule: A schedule or table that reports the amount of principal and the amount of interest that make up each payment made to repay a loan by the end of its regular term.

2. Amortized loan: A loan in which the payments include interest as well as loan principal.

3. Annual Percentage rate: A value that represents the interest paid by borrowers or earned by lenders, expressed as a percentage of the amount borrowed or invested over a 12-month period.

4. Discounting: A process that involves calculating the current value of a future cash flow or series of cash flows based on a certain interest rate.

5. Future Value: The name given to the amount to which a cash flow, or a series of cash flows, will grow over a given period of time when compounded at a given rate of interest.

6. Opportunity cost of funds: A 6% return that you could have earned if you had made a particular investment.

7. Time value of money: A concept that maintains that the owner of a cash flow will value it differently, depending on when it occurs.

8. Annuity due: A series of equal cash flows that occur at the beginning of each of the equally spaced intervals (such as daily, monthly, quarterly, and so on).

9. Perpetuity: A cash flow stream that is generated by a share of preferred stock that is expected to pay dividends every quarter indefinitely.

10. Ordinary annuity: A series of equal cash flows that occur at the end of each of the equally spaced intervals (such as daily, monthly, quarterly, and so on).

11. Time value of money calculations can be solved using a mathematical equation, a financial calculator, or a spreadsheet. The equation which can be used to solve for the present value of a perpetuity is given below;

Present value of a perpetuity (PV) = PMT/r

Where;

PMT represents the payment amount.
r represents the annual interest rate.
