a.September 30, 2017

Calculation for Depreciation Expense and Accumulated Depreciation -Equipment

We have to record depreciation expense for the first 9 months of 2017 which is

$80,000 ÷ 5 years = $16,000 ×9/12 = $12,000

Calculation for Accumulated Depreciation-Equipment:

($32,000 + $12,000) =44,000

Calculation for Loss on Disposal of Plant Assets

($52,000 – $46,000) =6,000

b)On June 30, 2017

Calculation for Gain on Disposal of Plant Assets

($24,000 – $21,000)=3,000

Net interest margin—often referred to as spread—is the difference between the rate banks pay on deposits and the rate they charg

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

(a) $P(X\:>\:5.40)=0.9938$

(b) $P(X\:$

Explanation:

(a) Find the z-value that corresponds to 5.40 percent

. $Z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$

$Z=\frac{5.40-4.15}{0.5}$

$Z=\frac{1.25}{0.5}=2.5$

Hence the net interest margin of 5.40 percent is 2.5 standard deviation above the mean.

The area to the left of 2.5 from the standard normal distribution table is 0.9938.The probability that a randomly selected U.S. bank will have a net interest margin that exceeds 5.40 percent is 1-0.9938=0.0062

(b) The z-value that corresponds to 4.40 percent is $Z=\frac{4.40-4.15}{0.5}=0.5$ The net interest margin of 4.40 percent is 0.5 standard deviation above the mean.

Using the normal distribution table, the area under the curve to the left of 0.5 is 0.6915

Therefore the probability that a randomly selected U.S. bank will have a net interest margin less than 4.40 percent is 0.6915

We substitute the 1.65 into the formula and solve for X. $1.65=\frac{X-4.15}{0.5}$

$1.65\times 0.5=X-4.15$ $0.825=X-4.15$

$0.825+4.15=X$

$4.975=X$

A bank that wants its net interest margin to be less than the net interest margins of 95 percent of all U.S. banks should set its net interest margin to 4.975 percent.

Neil is developing his marketing strategy. Which of these is NOT a requirement Neil has to follow based on the Telephone Consume

krok68 [10]

The TCPA restricts the making of telemarketing calls and uses automatic telephone dialing systems and artificial or prerecorded voice messages.

So that it will cope with a growing wide variety of telephone advertising calls, Congress enacted 1991 the phone consumer safety Act (TCPA). The TCPA restricts the making of telemarketing calls and the use of automated telephone dialing structures and synthetic or prerecorded voice messages.

The TCPA restricts telemarketing calls made to: Any residential phone subscriber before the hour of eight a.m. or after nine p.m. (known as party's neighborhood time) A residential phone quantity on the country-wide do-now not-name registry.

Normally speaking, the TCPA prohibits the usage of an ATDS or prerecorded message to touch cellular telephones, and prerecorded telemarketing messages to contact residential phones, except the recipient has provided and now not revoked “consent” to acquire the call/text.

The computation of the annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company is shown below:

Sales (9,000 units × 20.50) $184,500

Less: Variable costs:

Direct materials (9,000 units × $3.10) -$27,900

Direct labor (9,000 units × $1.50) -$13,500

Variable manufacturing overhead (9,000 units × $6.40) $57,600

Increase in variable costs (9,000 units × $5) -$45,000

Less: Investment in special molds -$36,000

Financial advantage $4,500

We simply deduct the all cost from the sales so that the financial advantage could come
