Year 8   $600,000        $55,000         $540,000           $60,000

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Cost of special equipment for the dam construction = $600,000

Estimated useful life = 8 years

Salvage value of equipment = $60,000

Depreciable amount = $540,000 ($600,000 - $60,000)

Sum-of-the-years-digit = 36 (8 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1)

Utilization Schedule for the Special Equipment:

Year Utilization (hr/yr)  Unit of Production                SYD Depreciation

1               6000                $150,000 (6,000 * $25)   $120,000 (8 * $15,000)

2              4000                $100,000 (4,000 * $25)   $105,000 (7 * $15,000)

3              4000                $100,000 (4,000 * $25)    $90,000 (6* $15,000)  

4              1600                  $40,000 (1,600 * $25)     $75,000 (5 * $15,000)

5               800                  $20,000 (800 * $25)       $60,000 (4 * $15,000)

6               800                  $20,000 (800 * $25)       $45,000 (3 * $15,000)

7            2200                  $55,000 (2,200 * $25)    $30,000 (2 * $15,000)

8            2200                  $55,000 (2,200 * $25)    $15,000 (1 * $15,000)

Total   21,600 hours

Depreciation rate per hour = $25 ($540,000/21,600)

Sum-of-the-years-digits depreciation rate = $15,000 ($540,000/36)

is an unlevered firm with a total market value of $3,900,000 with 60,000 shares of stock outstanding. The firm has expected EBIT
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Earnings per share= $3.58

Explanation:

Earnings per share(EPS) = Earnings attributable to share/Number of shares

Price per share = $3,900,000/60,000=$65 per share

The units of shares to be re-purchased with debt proceed

= The proceeds from debt/share price

=$975,000/$65= 15,000

The number of shares outstanding after repurchased = 60,000-15,000= 45,000 units

EBIT                                                     220,000

Less interest (6%×975,000)                <u> (58,500)</u>

Earnings attributable to shares           <u>    151,500</u>

Earnings per share                                151,500/45,000 units=$3.58

Earnings per share= $3.58

qaws [65]

Answer:

Foreign exchange loss

Explanation:

A foreign exchange gain/loss is normal for companies that operate in foreign countries. E.g. you prepared your financial statements by converting the foreign currency into your local currency, in this case you converted Canadian dollars to US dollars. But then the exchange rate between the currencies changes. If the value of the Canadian dollar's value increased after conversion, then you gained, and an adjustment must be made to show that gain. But if the Canadian dollar's value decreased after the conversion, then you lost (what happened here) and an adjusting entry must be made to report the loss.

In order to correct his, you must:
