1 answer:

7 0

Market structure is defined with characteristics of the market and there are four different market structures: perfect competition, oligopoly, monopoly and contestable market.
Perfect competition is a market structure in which there is a large number of small firms who produce identical goods otherwise known as homogenous goods and it has a lot of buyers. The competition between these firms is huge, because they are many firms and each of them wants to attract more buyers.
Oligopoly is a market structure in which there is a small amount of large firms, for example the supermarket industry. There are not so many buyers as in the perfect competition, but buyers can still choose from which supermarket, for example, they will buy. So there is a competition between the firms.

On October 1, 2022, Ivanhoe Company places a new asset into service. The cost of the asset is $87500 with an estimated 5-year li

Dimas [21]

Answer:

$3150

Explanation:

Given:

Cost of the asset purchased = $87500 (on 1st October. 2022)

Salvage value at the end of its useful life = $24500

Useful life estimated = 5 years

Question asked:

What is the depreciation expense for 2022 if Ivanhoe Company uses the straight-line method of depreciation?

Solution:

As we know:

$Straight-Line\ Depreciation\ Expense=\frac{Cost\ - Salvage\ Value}{Useful\ Life\ of\ the\ Asset}$

$=\frac{87500-24500}{5} =\frac{63000}{5} =12600$

Depreciation expenses per year = $12600

But we have to find depreciation expenses for 2022 for:-

From 1st October, 2022 to 31st December, 2022 = 3 months.

Straight-Line Depreciation Expense for Partial Year = 

 $D\times\frac{N}{12} \\\\ D=Depreciation\ expense\ for\ a\ complete\ year.\\N= Number\ of\ months\ during\ which\ the\ fixed\ asset\ was\ available\ for\ use$

Depreciation Expense for 3 months = $12600\times\frac{3}{12} =\frac{37800}{12} =3150$

Therefore, the depreciation expense for 2022 if Ivanhoe Company uses the straight-line method of depreciation is $3150.

Required information E12-3 Understanding the Computation of Cash Flows from Operating Activities (Indirect Method) [LO 12-2] [Th

kompoz [17]

Answer:

Net income = $320

Net cash flow from Operating activity = $145

Explanation:

The journal entries are shown below:

1. Cash A/c Dr $485

To Service revenue A/c $485

(Being sales service is provided for cash)

2. Salary expense A/c Dr $165

Outstanding salary expense A/c Dr $175

To Salary and wages payable A/c $340

(Being salary expense is recorded)

Salary and wages payable A/c $340

To Cash $340

(Being salary and wages are paid)

The net cash flow from operating activities would be

= Service revenue - salaries and wages payable

= $485 - $340

= $145

The net income would be

= Sales - salary expense

= $485 - $165

= $320

Cash flow from Operating activities under the indirect method

Net income $320

Less: Decrease in salary payable - $175

Net Cash flow from Operating activities $145
