Answer:

24

Explanation:

Absolute threshold is a concept that refers to the most minimum level of a sensory stimulus that an individual can sense. Testing this usually require individuals to differentiate the intensity of a stimulus.

A general rule of thumb is that when an individual can sense whether something is stronger 50% of the time, that stimulus level is the person’s absolute threshold.

Thus, in the example of Daniel, we should only pay attention to his 24 candles experiment – since he can recognize the difference in light intensity, 50% of the time, when there are only 24 candles. When he added 11 more candles, making them 35 candles, his ability to recognize the light intensity differences are reduced to 25%.

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

$5,000

Explanation:

The computation of total amount of excess fair over book value amortization expense adjustments to be recognized by red is shown below:-

Excess of fair value over book value =  Land fair value - Land book value

= $52,000 -$42,000

= -$10,000

Here land is not amortized

Excess of fair value over book value = Building fair value - Building book value

= $390,000 - $200,000

= $190,000

Excess fair value over book value amortization expense adjustments to be recognized by red = Excess of fair value over book value of building ÷ Number of Years

= $190,000 ÷ 10

= $19,000

Excess of fair value over book value = Equipment fair value - Equipment book value

= $280,000 - $350,000

= ($70,000)

Excess fair value over book value amortization expense adjustments to be recognized by red for equipment = Excess of fair value over book value of equipment ÷ Number of Years

= ($70,000) ÷ 5

= ($14,000)

Total amount of excess fair over book value amortization expense adjustments to be recognized by red

= $19,000 - $14,000

= $5,000
