Answer:

(a) 5

(b) $150 million

(c) 45 million

Explanation:

(a) Multiplier = 1 ÷ (1 - MPC )

                     = 1 ÷ (1 - 0.8 )

                     = 1 ÷ 0.2

                     = 5 ⇒ the value of the simple multiplier is 5.

b) If the autonomous expenditure is increased by $30 million then the total output will increase by:

= $30 million × 5

= $150 million

c) If the Marginal propensity to import is 0.3 then the import will increase by:

= 150 × 0.3

= 45 million

elixir [45]

Answer:

The depreciation is $52,500

Explanation:

The formula to compute the depreciation under the straight-line method is shown below:

= \dfrac{(original\ cost - salvage\ value )}{Number\ of\ years}

= \dfrac{(\$225,000 - \$15,000)}{4\years}

= $52,500

Under the straight-line method, the depreciation expense should be the same for the remaining useful life. Life of the equipment or machine should always be expressed in years, not in hours.

So, these usage of hours should be ignored.

Martha B's has total assets of $1,810. These assets are expected to increase in value to either $1,900 or $2,400 by next year. T
Blababa [14]

Answer:

$7.24

Explanation:

PV at the risk free rate = $1,900 / (1 + 0.055)

PV at the risk free rate = $1,900 / 1.055

PV at the risk free rate = $1,800.95

Number of options needed = (2,400 - 1,900) / (400 - 0)

Number of options needed = 500 / 400

Number of options needed = 1.25

Total assets = (No of options needed*Value of equity) +  Present value at the risk free rate. Let Value of equity be C0

$1,810 = (1.25*C0) + $1,800.95

$1,810 - $1,800.95 = 1.25*C0

C0 = $9.05 / 1.25

C0 = $7.24

So, the Value of equity in this firm is $7.24.

Determine which of the following statements are correct regarding damaged or obsolete goods. (Check all that apply.)
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

1.  Damaged or obsolete goods are not counted in inventory if they cannot be sold.  

2.  If these can be sold… Cost should be reduced to Net Realizable Value

Explanation:

The law relating to the valuation of inventory is that ''inventory should be valued at lower of 'Cost' and 'Net Realizable Value'.

Therefore in the case of damaged or obsolete goods, they have to be eliminated from inventory, otherwise it will lead to overvaluation.

However in the case where these can be sold, They have to be valued at lower of 'cost' or 'salable value', implying that 'Cost' should be reduced to 'Net Realizable Value'

AfilCa [17]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)

= ($52,000 - $8,000) ÷ (4 years)

= ($44000) ÷ (4 years)  

= $11,000

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

a. The depreciation expense for 2019 is $11,000

b.  The depreciation expense for 2020 is $11,000

c. The accumulated depreciation for year 2019 is $11,000

d. The accumulated depreciation for year 2020 is $22,000 ($11,000 + $11,000)

e. The book value is

= Original cost - accumulated depreciation

= $52,000 - $22,000

= $30,000
