Answer:

Date of selling machine is 31 Dec 2021, then gain of $47,000

If date of selling this machine is 31 Dec 2012 (used tenor: 4 years), then gain of 2,000

Explanation:

Depreciation per year = (original cost $80,000 - residual value $5,000)/ useful life of 10 years

= $7,500 per year

Date of purchase: January 1, 2009

Date of sold: December 31, 2021

⇒ Actual life of this machine = 13 years, but the maximum depreciation as accounting rule is for 10 year only

After 13 years, the book value = original cost - depreciation booked

= $80,000 - $7,500*10 = $5,000

Gain/ Loss = sold price - boo value = $52,000 - $5,000 = $47,000

If date of selling this machine is 31 Dec 2012 (used tenor: 4 years), then we have:

Gain/ Loss = sold price - book value

= $52,000 - ($80,000 - $7,500*4) = 2,000

Answer:

a. the development of railroad cars that could haul cattle.

Explanation:

The abrupt end of long distance cattle drives in 1885 was primarily due to the development of railroad cars that could haul cattle.

It was the advent of expanding rail road lines that terminated the cattle drive through Kansas because the end points of the cattle trail shifted to meet expanding railroad lines.

It was logical that as the railroads expanded to meet the cattle drive, one had to give way to the other because cattle do stray and trains could haul cattle

A process that produces computer chips has a mean of .04 defective chip and a standard deviation of .003 chip. The allowable var

Anarel [89]

Answer:

a) 0.667

b) Yes

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Mean = 0.04

Standard Deviation = 0.003

Upper Specification Limit, USL = 0.046

Lower Specification Limit, LSL = 0.034

Now,

a) Capability Index is given as:

Cp = $\frac{(USL-LSL)}{(6\sigma)}$

or

Cp = $\frac{(0.046-0.034)}{(6\times0.003)}$

or

Cp = 0.667

Also,

Cpk = min( $\frac{(USL-Mean)}{(3\sigma)},\frac{(Mean-LSL)}{(3\sigma)}$

or

Cpk = min( $\frac{(0.046-0.04)}{(3\times0.003)},\frac{(0.04-0.034)}{(3\times0.003)}$

or

Cpk = min( 0.667 , 0.667 )= 0.667

Since,

Cp and Cpk are same in this case

therefore, it is ideal condition and process is capable

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

30,000 units

Explanation:

Budgeted sales is 30,000 units

Beginning inventory = 5000 units

Ending inventory = 5000 units

In order to meet the sales of 30,000 units, the sum of budgeted production and beginning inventory must be at least 30,000 units. However, since the company desires to have 5000 units in ending inventory, this sum must be raised to 35,000 units, which means the production needs to 30,000 units

--> Budgeted production = 30,000 + 5000 - 5000

= 30,000 units

To begin with, in order to compare to different variables that are in different measures the correct way to proceed is to put them in the same measure so therefore they will be comparable with each other. Once said that, in this case the person should put the psychological benefits in economics benefits as it is the other variable and in order to do that the person should think of what aspects of his productivity would increase if he takes the vacations and gains the psychological benefits.
