Answer:
$272,000
Explanation:
Accumulated depreciation is the sum of depreciation expense. 
Depreciation is a method of expensing the cost of an asset. 
Depreciation expense using the straight line depreciation method = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life 
($700,000 - $20,000) / 5 = $136,000
The straight line depreciation method Deprecation allocates the same deprecation expense each year of the useful life of an asset.
The depreciation expense in 2019 and 2020 would be $136,000 x 2 = $272,000

Answer:
Use goal seek to answer this question. All else equals, to have a net income of 20,000, the COGS margin percentage must be <u>40%</u>, and the gross profit must be <u>$17,250</u>. 
Explanation:
The income statement is missing, so I looked it up and the information given was:
- Revenue 100,000 
- COGS 40,000 
- Gross Profit 60,000 
- Salaries 
- Marketing 
- Rent 
- Earnings Before Tax 23,000
- Income Tax 25% 
- Net Income ?
Since COGS are$40,000 and total sales are $100,000, the COGS margin percentage = 40,000 / 100,000 = 40%
Since earnings before taxes are $23,000 and taxes are 25%, then net income = $23,000 x (1 - 25%) = $23,000 x 75% = $17,250
 
        
             
        
        
        
If inflation is lower than expected, it would benefit the union and it would be a disadvantage to Friendly Airlines because the real wage increase would now be 4%.
<h3>What is inflation?</h3>
Inflation is when there is a general increase in the general price level of an economy. If inflation turns out to be lower than expected, the employers would be at a disadvantage while the employees would be at advantage because there would be an increase in their real wages. 
Increase in real wage = real increase in wage + (expected inflation + actual inflation) 
3% + (6% - 5%) = 4%

Answer:
The amount of taxpayers that are part of the "older generation" is slowly rising and is higher than the amount in 1997.
Explanation:
Remember to run a successful government, you must have the income in which to run the government programs. Most of these funds come from taxpayer's. In this case, it is clear that younger people generally make more as well as are generally healthy, leading to a large amount of input of money into the government, with fewer withdrawals. This would give a huge boost to the government budget. Older people on the other hand tend to not work as much, so their taxes are generally lower. They also withdraw more from the Government through Social Security, and so leaves the government with a negative balance from them in most cases. 
The chart on the other hand shows a <em>increase of percentage of older people</em>, which leaves a large gap in between the surplus and the spending, leading to a decrease of funding for the government. If this continues, the government would lose money, and would have to cut programs or face collapse. To fix this, they either have to, like stated above, cut programs, or give more taxes. Both are unacceptable to the American Public, which is what makes the government, as well as the average citizen, worried about the US government's funding surplus.
