Answer:

$38,000 loss

Explanation:

For calculation of entry to record the sale of the tractor first we need to determine the total depreciation and net book value on Jan 1, 2018 which is shown below:-

Total depreciation = (Tractor cost - Salvage value) × (Hours in 2016 + Hours in 2017) ÷ Hours of operation

= ($180,000 - $20,000) × (2,400 + 2,100) ÷ 10,000

= $72,000

Net book value on January 1, 2018 = Tractor cost - Total depreciation

= $180,000 - $72,000

= $108,000

Loss on sale = Sold tractor amount - Net book value on January 1, 2018

= $70,000 - $108,000

= $38,000

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

c. $215,000

Explanation:

The computation of the amount charged to income is shown below:

But before that first we have to determine the book value as on Jan 2024 which is

Total patent cost

= $200,000 + $50,000

= $250,000

Amortized cost till year 2024 is

= ($250,000 ÷ 10 years) × 3 years

= $75,000

The three years is counted from 2021 to 2024

Now

Book value on Jan 2024 is

= $250,000 - $75,000

= $175,000

So,

Amount charged to income  is

= $175,000 + $40,000

= $215,000

Which of the following, if true, would most weaken the argument that Fony Corp. should upgrade its technology?A) Employees fear
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer: E - The technology which the company is considering adopting was recently developed and has not yet been successfully implemented in a real business context.

Explanation: the company would be able to recover the cost of adoption of the new technology . This strengthens the argument that the upgrade should take place.

The new technology would improve cost of production and efficiency. This strengthens the argument that the upgrade takes place.

Because the upgrade hasn't been successfully tested, it might have an unintended negative impact which would erode all the benefits of the upgrade

Calculate the degree of operating leverage for the company below:Expected Quantity 50,000Total costs300,000Variable costs215,000
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Degree of Operating Leverage = 1.34

The Operating cash flow increases by 12%

The new operating cash flow is $290200

Explanation:

% change in Operating Cash Flow = Degree of Operating Leverage  * % change in sales

There is need to calculate Degree of operating leverage first. Degree of operating leverage = Contribution / EBIT

Where Contribution = OCF + Fixed costs / OCF

Fixed costs= Total costs - variable costs = 300000 - 215000

Fixed Cost= 85000

 

Degree of operating leverage = (250000 + 85000) / 250000

DOL= 1.34

% change in OCF = DOL * % change in sales

% change in sales = (56000 - 50000) / 50000 = 12%

% change in OCF = 1.34 * 12% = 16.08%

New OCF = 250000 * (1+16.08%)

=$250000 * (1 + 0.1608)

=$250000(1.1608)

= $290200
