Straight line depreciation (D) is computed as follows:

D= (purchase cost of an asset- its expected salvage value)/ the number of years of its expected useful life.

In the case of the old machine sold by Nicklaus Company, depreciation (D) in dollars is:

D = (160,000-0)/10

D= 160,000/10

D= 16,000 per year

Since the machine was bought on June 30, 2003, and was sold on January 1, 2009, its total depreciation value (TD) for the 6 and half years that it was used is:

TD = 16,000 x 6.5

TD= 104,000

Cost of the asset on time of sale, therefore, is 160,000-104,000=56,000

<span>Since the company sold it at only $52,000, recorded loss will be $4,000 (56,000-52,000). </span>

If the Central Bank of Macroland puts an additional 1,000 dollars of currency into the economy, the public deposits all currency
yan [13]

Answer:

the banks will eventually make new loans totaling 9,000 and the money supply will increase by 10,000

Explanation:

The money multiplier is 1/0.10= 10. If 1,000 new dollars of currency are deposited in the banks, they must hold $100 as required reserves and can lend out $900. Through the money multiplier, loans will increase by $900*10= $9000. The expansion of the money supply is the original deposit + the increase in loans or $1,000+ $9,000= $10,000

ziro4ka [17]

Answer: $2289

Explanation:

First, we have to calculate the gross percentage which would be:

= (Revenue - Cost of goods sold) Revenue

= ($124000 - $86800) / $$124000

= 30%

Therefore, the amount of gross profit must Panner defer in reporting this investment using the equity method would be:

= ($21800 × 30%) × 35%

= $21800 × 0.3 × 0.35

= $2289

You just purchased an existing business that produces solar panels according to the following production function:
frez [133]

Answer:

<u>$50</u>

<u>Explanation</u>:

In the production function, Q = K0.5L0.5,

K denotes the fixed input in the short run.

First, we calculate the total cost:

Cost of Capital= 25 x $1 = $25

Cost of Labor (for a start 25 workers are used)= 25 x $1 = $25

Total= $50

Since the price of the solar panels is $100, substrating from the total cost $50 (100-50) we get $50 profit per unit of solar panel.

The market risk premium is 9.0%, and the risk-free rate is 5.0%. If the expected return on a bond is 9.5%, what is its beta?
leva [86]

Answer:

The beta is 1

Explanation:

The computation of beta using the CAPM model is shown below:

As we know that

Expected rate of return = Risk free rate of return + Beta × Market risk premium

9.5% = 5% + Beta × 9.0%

9.5% - 5% = Beta × 9.0%

9.0% = Beta × 9.0%

So, the beta is 1

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

And, the same is to be considered
