Answer:

loss of $1,200

Explanation:

Depreciation is the systematic allocation of cost to an asset. it is given as

Depreciation = (cost - salvage value)/useful life

When an asset is sold at an amount lower than its carrying or net book value, a loss on sale/disposal is recognized otherwise, a gain on disposal. The netbook value is the cost less accumulated depreciation.

Depreciation =  ($33,000 - $4,000)/5

= $5800

Netbook value at disposal = $33,000 - $5800

= $27,200

Gain/(loss) on disposal = $26,000 - $27,200

= ($1,200)

Gouda Company and Cheddar Company had the same sales, total costs, and income from operations for the current fiscal year; yet G
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

If both companies have the sames sales volume, total costs and income from operations, the reason why Gouda has a lower break even point is that their variable costs are lower. We use the contribution margin per unit to calculate the break even point and the contribution margin per unit = sales price - variable costs. The question states that total costs are equal, but it doesn't say anything about variable or fixed costs.

Assuming that Gouda is above break even point, each sale will generate a higher operating profit since the contribution margin is higher.

SashulF [63]

Answer:

a. he or she has not ratified the contract on reaching majority.

Explanation:

Generally a minor is allowed to dissaffirm a contract they entered when they were underaged. Also when they attain the age of majority they will need to ratify the contract for it to be binding.

In the case where the contract has not been ratified on reaching majority, it can still be dissaffirmed.

Contracts with minors are void, and only some state laws allow for ratification of the contract on attainment of majority age.
