In the given question it is mentioned that the employees earned vacation pay of $35,000 during the first year of the operation.
Hence,
the expenses should be recorded as the vacation pay expenses in the same year not in the following year i.e the second year whether the employees take the vacation in the same year or the next year.
Answer:
The output growth rate is 3%.
Explanation:
Use the growth accounting equation as follow
ΔA% = ΔY% - αΔK% - βΔL%
Where
∆A = change in productivity = 2%
∆K = growth in capital =
∆L = growth in labor =
α = elasticity of capital = 0.2
β = elasticity of labor = 0.8
∆Y = change in output = ?
Placing values in the formula
2% = ΔY% - ( 0.2 x 1% ) – ( 0.8 x 1% )
2% = ΔY% - 1%
ΔY% = 2% + 1%
ΔY% = 3%
Hence, the output growth rate is 3%.
Answer:
So the depreciation in year 1 is $95,000
Explanation:
Depreciation is the accounting method that is used to allocate cost of an asset over its useful life. It is assumed that an asset losses values over a period and the salvage or terminal value is the value of the good after its useful life has ended.
Straight line method of depreciation assumes equal allocation of depreciation expense over the useful life of an asset.
In the given the asset value is $570,000 and the terminal value is $0
Using the formula
Depreciation= (Value of asset- Salvage value)/Number of useful years
Depreciation= (570,000-0)/6
Depreciation= $95,000 paid equally for 6 years
So the depreciation in year 1 is $95,000
Answer:
$46,500
Explanation:
Accounting equation is stated as :
Assets = Equity + Liabilities
therefore,
Equity = Assets - Liabilities
Equity at Beginning of the Period :
Equity = Assets - Liabilities
= $78,000 - $42,000
= $36,000
Equity at end of the Period
Closing Equity Balance = Opening Balance + Net Income - Dividends
= $36,000 + $15,500 - $5,000
= $46,500
Answer:
Proposal A: $185,714.29
Proposal B: $160,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
$10,000 for installations to be completed.
The revenue generated by each unit is $ 20.00
Proposal A:
Fixed costs= 55,000
The variable cost is $13.00
Proposal B:
Fixed costs= 70,000
The variable cost is $10.00
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Proposal A: (55,000+10,000)/[(20-13)/20]= $185,714.29
Proposal B: (70,000 + 10,000)/[(20-10)/20]= $160,000
