Answer:

Explanation:

Depreciation : Depreciation is a decrease value of the fixed assets due to wear and tear, obsolesce, etc.

In the given question, the accumulated depreciation is $720 and the asset is purchase on Dec 1 with $3,600 value

So on the date of December 31, the adjusted value would be

= $720 × 1 ÷ 12 months

= $60

As on December 1 the asset is purchased , and we have to prepared the financial statement on December 31 . So, from December 1 to December 31, it has 1 month which is not yet recorded.

Hence, the adjusted entry would be :

Deprecation Expense A/c Dr $60

    To Accumulated Depreciation A/c  $60

(Being adjusted entry recorded)

"You plan to buy a piece of machinery worth $50,000 then you plan to sell it at the end of its 15-year life cycle for $5,000. Wh
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

$3,000 and $35,000

Explanation:

The computations are shown below:

The depreciation expense would be

=(Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)

= ($50,000 - $5,000) ÷ (15 years)

= ($45,000) ÷ (15 years)  

= $3,000

In this method, the depreciation is same for all the remaining useful life

The book value would be

= (Original cost of equipment) - (depreciation × number of years)

= ($50,000) - ($3,000 × 5 years)

= $50,000 - $15,000

= $35,000

Other things remaining the same, if the average aggregate inventory value goes down, then?
mixas84 [53]

Other things remain the same if the average aggregate inventory value goes down, then the inventory turnover ratio will go up, but weeks of supply will go down.

An inventory valuation allows a company to provide a monetary value for items that make up its inventory. Inventories are usually the largest current asset of a business, and proper measurement of them is necessary to assure accurate financial statements.

An inventory valuation is a monetary amount associated with the goods in the inventory at the end of an accounting period.

ABC Corp. has just paid a dividend of $0.26. ABC has an annual required return of 12%.
Elis [28]

Answer:

a. If dividends are annual and expected to be constant, what is the intrinsic value (fair price) of ABC stock?

P₀ = $0.26 / 12% = $2.16667 = $2.17

b. What is ABC's dividend yield?

$0.26 / $2.17 = 12%

c. From now on, assume that the dividend of 0.26 was a quarterly dividend. What is the quarterly discount rate?

12% / 4 = 3%

d. What is the intrinsic value if dividends are constant and quarterly?

P₀ = $0.26 / 3% = $8.66667 = $8.67

e. We now think that dividends will grow by 0.3% from quarter to quarter. The firm just paid the quarterly dividend of 0.26. What is the intrinsic value of ABC stock?

P₀ = ($0.26 x 1.003) / (3% - 0.3%) = $9.6585 = $9.66

f. A different analyst thinks that ABC's dividends will grow by 5% for the next 4 quarters, and then grow by 0.3% thereafter. What is the intrinsic value?

Div₀ = $0.26

Div₁ = $0.273

Div₂ = $0.287

Div₃ = $0.301

Div₄ = $0.316

Div₅ = $0.317

terminal value in 4 quarters = $0.317 / (3% - 0.3%) = $11.74

P₀ = $0.273/1.03 + $0.287/1.03² + $0.301/1.03³ + $0.316/1.03⁴ + $11.74/1.03⁴ = $0.265 + $0.271 + $0.275 + $0.281 + $10.43 = $11.522
