On January 3, 2014, Trusty Delivery Service purchased a truck at a cost of $90,000. Before placing the truck in service, Trusty

spent $3,000 painting it, $1,500 replacing tires, and $4,500 overhauling the engine. The truck should remain in service for five years and have a residual value of $9,000. The truck's annual mileage is expected to be 22,500 miles in each of the first four years and 10,000 miles in the fifth year - 100,000 miles in total.
In deciding which depreciation method to use, Mikail Johnson, the general manager, requests a depreciation schedule for each of the depreciation methods (straight-line, units-of-production, and double-declining-balance).

Answer:

Accumulated depreciation for Years 1 - 5 under:

  • the Straight-line method is $90,000.
  • the Units-of-production method is $90,000.
  • the Double-declining-balance method is $86,170.

Explanation:

The total cost of the asset is $90,000 + $3,000 + $1,500 + $4,500 = $99,000, since all the other costs were directly attributable cost and were necessary to bring the asset to usable form.

  • The painting is capitalized because it is the first time Trust Delivery would be using the asset, otherwise it would have been expended
  • Overhauling cost can be regarded as a separate asset, if we were provided with different useful lives - componentization.

Under straight-line method, depreciation expense is (cost - residual value) / No of years = ($99,000 - $9,000) / 5 years = $18,000 yearly depreciation expense.

Accumulated depreciation for Years 1 to 5 is $18,000 x 5 years $90,000.

The unit-of-production method is used when the asset value closely relates to the units of output it is able to produce. It is expressed with the formula below:

(Original Cost - Salvage value) / Estimated production capacity x Units/year

At Year 1, depreciation expense (DE) is: ($99,000 - $9,000) / 100,000 miles x 22,500 miles = $20,250/year

Accumulated depreciation for the first four years is $20,250 x 4 years = $81,000.

At Year 5, depreciation = $90,000 / 100,000 miles x 10,000 miles = $9,000

Note that this depreciation method results in higher depreciation charge when the asset is heavily used, at this time, it was in Years 1 - 4.

Accumulated depreciation expense for Years 1 to 5, under this method, is $90,000 (addition of first four years and the Year 5).

The double-declining method is otherwise known as the reducing balance method and is given by the formula below:

Double declining method = 2 X SLDP X BV

SLDP = straight-line depreciation percentage

BV = Book value

SLDP is 100%/5years = 20%, then 20% multiplied by 2 to give 40%

At Year 1, 40% X $99,000 = $39,600

At Year 2, 40% X $59,400 ($99,000 - $39,600) = $23,760

At Year 3, 40% X $35,640 ($59,400 - $23,760) = $14,256

At Year 4, 40% X $21,384 ($35,640 - $14,256) = $8,554 approximately (the depreciation expense would stop at this stage since the amount falls below the residual value).

Accumulated depreciation expense for Years 1 to 4, under this method, is $86,170 (addition of all the yearly depreciation).

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

$8,770.00

Explanation:

In this question we use the present value formula i.e shown in the attachment below:

Data provided in the question

Future value = $0

Rate of interest = 0.48%

NPER = 4 years × 12 months = 48 months

PMT = $205

The formula is shown below:

= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)

So, after solving this, the answer would be $8,770.00

You are planning to save for retirement over the next 30 years. To do this, you will invest $750 per month in a stock account an
Alex

Answer:

The withdrawals will be of  $ 11,379.014 per month

Explanation:

Future value of the annuities:

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C         750.00

time 360(30 years x 12 monhs per year)

rate 0.008333333 (10% / 12 months)

750 \times \frac{1-(1+0.00833)^{-360} }{0.008333} = PV\\

PV $1,695,365.9436

C \times \frac{(1+r)^{time} -1}{rate} = PV\\

C         250.00

time 360 (30 years x 12 monhs per year)

rate             0.005 (6% / 12 months)

250 \times \frac{(1+0.005)^{360} -1}{0.005} = PV\\

PV $251,128.7606

Total 1,695,365.84 + 251,128.76 = 1.946.494,6‬

and from here we withdraw for 25 years:

PV \div \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = C\\

PV 1,946,495

time 300 (25 years x 12 months)

rate 0.004166667 (5% / 12 months)

1946494.6 \div \frac{1-(1+0.004167)^{-300} }{0.004167} = C\\

C  $ 11,379.014

1. A statement of affairs shows $50,000 of assets pledged to fully secured creditors, $100,000 of assets pledged to partially se
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

B. $165,000

This amount is made up of as follows:

Partially unsecured Liability = $25,000 ($125,000 - 100,000)

plus Unsecured with priority = $20,000

plus Totally Unsecured  = $120,000

Total = $165,000

Explanation:

a) The fully secured liability of $40,000 had secured assets worth $50,000, giving excess assets of $10,000.

b) The partially secured liability of $125,000 could only be secured with assets worth $100,000, leaving the balance of $25,000 as unsecured.

c) The Unsecured with priority equals $20,000

d) The completely unsecured without priority equals $120,000.

When (b) to (d) are summed, the total is $165,000.

e) The unsecured liabilities with priority will be paid before other all unsecured liabilities.  That is the only advantage they enjoy.  But, they can  only be settled after all reorganization expenses had been settled.

A company reported the following financial information: Taxable income for current year $120,000 Deferred income tax liability,
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

$41,000

Explanation:

Calculation to determine The current-year's income tax expense amount

First step is to calculate the current tax expense

Current tax expense=$120,000 taxable income × 35% tax rate

Current tax expense=$42,000

Second step is to calculate the deferred income tax liability increased

Deferred income tax liability=$55,000-$50,000

Deferred income tax liability=$5,000

Third step is to calculate the deferred income tax asset increased

Deferred income tax asset=$16,000-$10,000

Deferred income tax asset=$6,000

Now let calculate the current year's income tax expense

Current year's income tax expense = $42,000 + $5,000 - $6,000

Current year's income tax expense=$41,000

Therefore Current year's income tax expense is $41,000
