Gonzo Co. owns a building in Georgia. The buildingâ€™s historical cost is $970,000, and $440,000 of accumulated depreciation has

ladessa [460]

Answer:

1. The cost to be capitalized to building account is $343,600

2. The subsequent carrying amount of the building is $873,600

Explanation:

1. In order to calculate the which of the costs incurred by Gonzo Co. should be capitalized to the building account we would have to use the following formula:

cost to be capitalize=Major improvement to the plumbing+Added a loby

cost to be capitalize=$109,000+$234,600

cost to be capitalize=$343,600

The cost to be capitalized to building account is $343,600

2. To calculate the subsequent carrying amount of the building we have to use the following formula:

subsequent carrying amount=Historical cost+improvements-Accumulated Depreciation

subsequent carrying amount=$970,000+$343,600-$440,000

subsequent carrying amount=$873,600

The subsequent carrying amount of the building is $873,600

Drying times for newly painted microwave oven cabinets are normally distributed with a mean of 2.5 minutes and a standard deviat

Marina86 [1]

Answer: 3.22

Explanation:

Given that;

mean = 2.5 min

standard deviation = 0.25 min

now to get the value of X required, we say

z = (x - u) / a

where z is the distance from the mean measured in the standard deviation units, x is the value we are interested in, u is the mean distribution, a is the standard deviation of the distribution.

the time delay should be just enough to allow 99.8% of the cabinets to dry completely = 99.8/100 = 0.9980

first we determine an appropriate z value.

Using the standardized normal tables,

value of z for approximately 0.9980 is 2.88

so using our initial equation z = (x - u) / a

we substitute the value

z = (x - u) / a

2.88 = ( x - 2.5) / 0.25

2.88 * 0.25 = x - 2.5

0.72 = x - 2.5

x = 0.72 + 2.5

x = 3.22

Land, a building and equipment are acquired for a lump sum of $1,000,000. The market values of the land, building and equipment

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

The answer is option (b). $250,000

Explanation:

Step 1: Determine total market value

The expression for the total market value is;

Total market value=land value+building value+equipment value

where;

land value=$300,00

building value=$600,000

equipment value=$300,000

replacing;

Total market value=(300,000+600,000+300,000)=$1,200,000

Total market value=$1,200,000

Step 2: Determine fraction of the total market value that is equipment

Equipment fraction=equipment value/total market value

where;

equipment value=$300,000

total market value=$1,200,000

replacing;

Equipment fraction=300,000/1,200,000=0.25

Step 3: Determine cost assigned to the equipment

Cost assigned to the equipment=equipment fraction×lump sum

where;

equipment fraction=0.25

lump sum=$1,000,000

replacing;

Cost assigned to the equipment=(0.25×1,000,000)=250,000

Cost assigned to the equipment=$250,000
