Answer:

$21,640.

Explanation:

So, we are given the following data or parameters or information which is going to assist us in solving this question/problem:

=> "New passenger automobile (September 30) = $61,600."

=> "Baking equipment (June 30) = 18,480"

=>" William decides to use the election to expense on the baking equipment (and has adequate taxable income to cover the deduction) but not on the automobile (which has a 5-year recoveryand he also uses the MACRS accelerated method to calculate depreciation but elects out of bonus depreciation. "

=> "Assume he has adequate taxable income."

Therefore, if we are to follow the rules of the Internal Revenue Services, the new passenger automobile that is the depreciable limit = 11,160 - 8000 = 3,160.

Hence, the maximum depreciation deduction = Baking equipment + depreciable limit = 18,480 + 3,160 = $21,640.

Answer:

$P(X$

And we can find this probability using the normal standard distribution table or excel and we got:

$P(Z$

Explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the expected return, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(11,26)$

Where $\mu=11$ and $\sigma=26$

We are interested on this probability

$P(X$

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

$P(X$

And we can find this probability using the normal standard distribution table or excel and we got:

$P(Z$

Answer:

A. Year 1 $17,500

Year 2 $17,500

Year 3 $17,500

B. $322,500

C. Dr Cash $300,000

Dr Accumulated Depreciation-Equipment $52,500

Dr Loss on disposal of Equipment $22,500

Cr Equipment $375,000

D. Dr Cash $325,000

Dr Accumulated Depreciation-Equipment $52,500

Cr Equipment $375,000

Cr Gain on disposal of Equipment $2,500

Explanation:

A. Calculation to determine What was the annual amount of depreciation for the Years 1-3 using the straight-line method of depreciation

Year 1 Depreciation expense Year 1=($375,000-$25,000)/20 years

Year 1 Depreciation expense Year=$17,500

Year 2 Depreciation expense Year=($375,000-$25,000)/20 years

Year 2 Depreciation expense Year=$17,500

Year 3 Depreciation expense Year=($375,000-$25,000)/20 years

Year 3 Depreciation expense Year=$17,500

Therefore the annual amount of depreciation for the Years 1-3 using the straight-line method of depreciation is :

Year 1 $17,500

Year 2 $17,500

Year 3 $17,500

B. Calculation to determine What was the book value of the equipment on January 1 of Year 4

Book value of Equipment=[$375,000-($17,500*3)]

Book value of Equipment=[$375,000-$52,500)

Book value of Equipment=$322,500

Therefore the book value of the equipment on January 1 of Year 4 is $322,500
