A company records the fees for legal services paid in advance by its clients in an account called Unearned Legal Fees. If the co
White raven [17]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Now the initial jounal entry of the Unearned Fees was recorded as:

Dr Cash received XX

Cr        Unearned Fees XX ........... Is a liability

Now the reason why the statement is true can be best explained from the following equation:

Equity = Ordinary Stock + (Revenue - Expense - Dividend)

Now just look at the above equation and the journal entry, the unearned fees increased the liability and if this amount is not waived off to the amount the unearned fees are converted to earnings, I mean if you have received the amount for 3 months services in advance and only one month services are delivered then the 1/3 part of the unearned fees will recognized as earned. If it is not complied then we can see in the above equation that the revenue would decrease and this decrease will decrease the equity.

your firm is contemplating the purchase of a new $545,000 computer-based order entry system. the system will be depreciated stra
liberstina [14]

The IRR of the new computer-based order entry system is 22.87%.

<h3>What is the IRR?</h3>

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after-tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested

The cash flow at the beginning of the period = purchase price of the system - reduction in working capital

$545,000 - $96,000 = $449,000

Depreciation expense = (cost of the asset - salvage value) / useful life

($545,000 - 0) / 5 = $109,000

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 5 = (amount saved - depreciation)(1 - taxes) + depreciation

($165,000 - $109,00)(1 - 0.22) + $109,000 = $152,680

Terminal cash flow = Salvage value - (tax x salvage value)

$71,000 - (0.22 x 71,000) = $55,380

IRR can be determined using a financial calculator:

Cash flow in year 0 = $-449,000

Cash flow in year 1 - 4= $152,680

Cash flow in year 5 = $152,680 + $55,380 = 208,060

IRR = 22.87%
