<span>You are given Nigel's current balance of $668.47 in an account he has held for 15 years. Also you are given an initial deposit of $497. You are asked to find the simple interest rate on the account. You will use the simple interest formula, F = P(1 + rn) were F is the current balance, P is the principal amount deposited, r is the rate and n is the number of years.

</span>F = P(1 + rn)
668.47 = 497(1 + r(15))
r = 0.023 or 2.3%

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

The amount of overhead applied during the year is $2,400,000

Explanation:

In determining overheads amounts to be included in product costing, a company uses Budgeted overheads.

Budgeted overheads are used rather than actual overheads because of the delays that are made to obtain Actual data for Actual overhead amounts which will delay product costing.

Therefore Using machine hours as a base, the amount of overhead applied during the year is $2,400,000

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

Given the following:

Asset    Acquisition-Cost   Expected-Life    Residual-Value   Time-Used

Land        $104,300                 Infinite               $100,000            10 years

Building     430,000               25 years                30,000             10 years

Machine     285,000                5 years                  10,000              2 years

Patent          80,000                10 years                     0                    3 years

Truck            21,000             100,000 miles           3,000         44,000 miles

Therefore, we have:

Building annual depreciation = ($430,000 - $30,000) / 25 = $16,000

Building net book value (NBV) = $430,000 - (16,000 * 10) = $270,000

Machine annual depreciation = ($285,000 - 10,000) / 10 = $27,500

Machine NBV = $285,000 - ($27,500 * 2) = $230,000

Patent annual amortization = $80,000 / 10 = $8,000

Patent net written down value = $80,000 - ($8,000 * 3) = $56,000

Truck accumulated depreciation = ($21,000 - 3,000) * (44,000 / 100,000) = $7,920

Truck NBV = $21,000 - $7,920 = 13,080
