Answer:

$30,000

Explanation:

Amortization is the process of expensing the cost of an intangible over its useful life. It is equivalent to depreciation in physical assets.

Under the straight-line depreciation, the depreciation amount is constant throughout the life of the asset.

For Bricktown, the cost of the asset is $50,000

use-life is five years,

the rate of depreciation will be 1/5 x 100

=1/5 x 100

20 percent

depreciation per year will 20% x $50,000

=20/100 x 100

=10,000

Accumulated depreciation at the end of the second year

=$10,000 x 2

=$20,000

The carrying value after two years will be the value of the asset - accumulated value. ( carrying value is the book value).

=$50,000 - $20,000

=$30,000

If S3 is the market supply curve, then each firm in this market will earn an economic loss of ______ per week.
Ahat [919]

Answer: ($2,000)

Explanation:

With S3 as the supply curve, the equilibrium price is $10.

With this being a Perfectly competitive market, the profit maximising quantity will be where Price which is the same as Marginal Revenue equals Marginal cost.

That quantity is 200 gallons a week.

At this same level, the Average Total Costs are $20.

Profit (Loss) = (Price - ATC) * Quantity

= (10 - 20) * 200

= ($2,000)

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

Expected return = 9%

Explanation:

<em>A portfolio is a collection of assets/ investment. The expected  return on the stock would be the weighted average of all the return of the possible  return weighted according to their probability.</em>

Expected return on portfolio:

E(R) =( Wa*Ra) + (Wb*Rb)  + (Wc*Rc)

R- possible return,W- probability

E(R) = (30%× 0.25) + (12%× 0.5) + (-18%× 0.25) = 9 %

Expected return = 9%

Note that the negative sign in the last possible return  implies a loss.

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

1.$20 per hour

2. Processing accounts $4 per account

Issuing statements $2 per statement

Processing transactions $1 per transaction

Answering inquiries $3 per inquiry

$40,000

Explanation:

1. Calculation to determine the capacity cost rate for the checking account process

Using this formula

Capacity cost rate= Total resources / Total checking processing hours

Let plug in the formula

Capacity cost rate= $400,000 / 20,000

Capacity cost rate= $20 per hour

Therefore the capacity cost rate for the checking account process is $20 per hour

2. Calculation to determine the activity rates for the four activities.

Processing accounts= 0.20 × $20

Processing accounts= $4 per account

Issuing statements= 0.10 × $20

Issuing statements= $2 per statement

Processing transactions= 0.05 × $20

Processing transactions= $1 per transaction

Answering inquiries= 0.15 × $20

Answering inquiries= $3 per inquiry

Therefore the activity rates for the four activities are:

Processing accounts $4 per account

Issuing statements $2 per statement

Processing transactions $1 per transaction

Answering inquiries $3 per inquiry

Calculation to determine the cost of the issuing statements activity If the total of issuing statement was 20,000

Using this formula

Cost of the issuing statements activity= Issuing statements*Total of issuing statement

Cost of the issuing statements activity

Let plug in the formula

Cost of the issuing statements activity= 20,000 × $2

Cost of the issuing statements activity= $40,000

Therefore the cost of the issuing statements activity is $40,000

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

D) Biased interpretation

Explanation:

The risk that is most likely the cause of this would be Biased Interpretation. This is basically when an individual takes a very random or common and takes it as being either negative or positive. This is most likely causing the sales associates to greet the customers at different intervals as they see opportunities differently. Some sales associates may see an opportunity of greeting a customer as negative while another may see it as positive. Therefore, only the one that sees it as positive will greet the customer, while the other will wait for another opportunity.
