Computing second-year depreciation and accumulated depreciationAt the beginning of 2016, Air Asia purchased a used airplane at a

cost of $40,000,000. Air Asia expects the plane to remainuseful for eight years (5,000,000 miles) and to have a residual value of $5,000,000. Air Asia expects the plane to be ﬂown1,200,000 miles the ﬁrst year and 1,400,000 miles the second year.Requirements1 Compute second-year (2017) depreciation expense on the plane using the following methods:a. Straight-lineb. Units-of-productionc Double-declining-balance2 Calculate the balance in Accumulated Depreciation at the end ofthe second year for all three methods.

Answer:

1. a.$4,375,000

b. $7,500,000

c. $9,800,000

2. $8,750,000

$18,200,000

$17,500,000

Explanation:

1. The computation of the depreciation expense for the second year is presented below:

a) Straight-line method:

= (Purchase value of airplane - residual value) ÷ (useful life)

= ($40,000,000 - $5,000,000) ÷ (8 years)

= ($35,000,000) ÷ (8 years)

= $4,375,000

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

(b) Double-declining balance method:

First we have to find the depreciation rate which is shown below:

= One ÷ useful life

= 1 ÷ 8

= 12.5%

Now the rate is double So, 25%

In year 1, the original cost is $40,000,000 so the depreciation is $10,000,000 after applying the 25% depreciation rate

And, in year 2, the $30,000,000 × 25% = $7,500,000

(c) Units-of-production method:

= (Purchase value of airplane - residual value) ÷ (estimated miles)

= ($40,000,000 - $5,000,000) ÷ ($5,000,000 miles)

= ($35,000,000) ÷ ($5,000,000 miles)

= $7 per miles

In first year, it would be

= Miles in first year × depreciation per miles

= 1,200,000 miles × $7

= $8,400,000

Now for the second year, it would be

= Miles in second year × depreciation per miles

= 1,400,000 miles × $7

= $9,800,000

2. The calculation of the accumulated depreciation balance would be

Straight line method:

= $4,375,000 + $4,375,000

= $8,750,000

Double-declining balance method:

= $10,000,000 + $7,500,000

= $17,500,000

Units-of-production method:

= $8,400,000 + $9,800,000

= $18,200,000

irga5000 [103]

Answer: Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Correct Option: Marginal revenue equals marginal cost.

Pure monopoly is a market situation in which there is a single firm who are producing the goods and these goods are the close substitute. There is no other firm in the market. So, the monopoly firm is the price setter.

The output level that is produced by the profit maximizing monopoly firm is at a point where marginal revenue is equal to the marginal cost. It is the same profit maximizing condition that a competitive firm also utilize to find their equilibrium level of output.

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

utilitarian

Explanation:

Utilitarian Motivation is the zeal, drive to acquire products that can be used to get, acquire or accomplish another thing/something.Usually, Utility items are bought/purchased frequently more out of need and are a regular part of the consumer's life, and buyers are price sensitive.

Consumer behavior is the search for value of goods or services and its is the transformation into something of value.

Utilitarian: seeks to helps the consumer solve problems and accomplish tasks.utilitarian value is a means to and end.

Utilitarian products

Utilitarian products usually gives benefits like practicality and functionality as they are compatible with our rational system of thinking.

Let $S$ be the set of complex numbers of the form $a + bi,$ where $a$ and $b$ are integers. We say that $z \in S$ is a unit if t

lakkis [162]

Answer:

Number of units possible in S are 4.

Explanation:

Given <em>S</em> is a set of complex number of the form $a+bi$ where <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are integers.

$z\in S$ is a unit if $w\in z$ exists such that $zw=1$ .

To find:

Number of units possible = ?

Solution:

Given that:

$zw = 1$

Taking modulus both sides:

$|zw| = |1|$

Using the property that modulus of product of two complex numbers is equal to their individual modulus multiplied.

i.e.

$|z_1z_2|=|z_1|.|z_2|$

So,

$|zw| = |1|\\\Rightarrow |zw| =|z|.|w| =1\\\Rightarrow |z|=\dfrac{1}{|w|}$ ......... (1)

Let $z=a+bi$

Then modulus of z is $|z| = \sqrt{a^2+b^2}$

Given that a and b are <em>integers</em>, so the equation (1) can be true only when $|z| = |w| =1$ (Reciprocal of 1 is 1). Modulus can be equal only when one of the following is satisfied:

(a = 1, b = 0) , (a = -1, b = 0), (a = 0, b = 1) OR (a = 0, b = -1)

So, the possible complex numbers can be:

$1.\ 1 + 0i = 1\\2.\ -1 + 0i = -1\\3.\ 0+ 1i = i\\4.\ 0 -1i = -i$

Hence, number of units possible in S are 4.

Use the following information to answer the next three questions.

nalin [4]

Answer:

The alignment of numbers in the first part of the question is off. However, you solve this question as shown below. The correct answer is C. $1,124.

Explanation:

This is a one-time cashflow type of question where the principal amount is invested once and no other addition is made to the account. You use the future value formula to solve the result of the compounding effect at year 3.

FV formula;

FV = PV(1+r)^n

PV = 800

discount rate; r = 12% or 0.12

total duration of investment; n = 3

therefore; FV = 800(1+0.12)^3

FV = 800 * 1.404928

FV = 1123.94

To the nearest whole dollar, the amount will grow to $1,124

Explain one guideline that will help a speaker use or create an effective presentational aid. Provide examples.

Karolina [17]

You should never read directly from the presentation aid. You should only look and use it when it’s relevant so it shows yk what you are doing and you aren’t just reading it. You should use a font that’s clear and easy to read. You should also use the same font on all your slides. Example: visual aids such as graphs, maps and diagrams.
