Answer:
Depreciation for
2017 = $2,540
2018 = $10,160
Explanation:
Provided, Total cost of the machine = $77,980
Estimated salvage value = $6,860
Therefore, value to be depreciated = $77,980 - $6,860 = $71,120
Total life of asset = 7 years
Depreciation for the year 2017 = October to December = 3 months

Depreciation for the year 2018 =
= $10,160
Under straight line method depreciation is fixed for each year, but in the given case in 2017 the asset is used only for 3 months, thus depreciation will be charged for 3 months only.
Final Answer
Depreciation for
2017 = $2,540
2018 = $10,160
Answer:
(a) $4.08
(b) $51.03
Explanation:
Constant growth rate for earnings:
= (EPS for any year ÷ EPS for the previous year) - 1
= (8.40 ÷ 8.00) - 1
= 0.05
= 5%
(a) EPS for 2016 = EPS for 2015 × (1 + 5%)
= 9.72 × 1.05
= $10.21
Dividend for 2016 = 40% × EPS for 2016
= 40% × 10.206
= $4.08
(b) Stock Price at the beginning of 2016:
= Dividend for 2016 ÷ (Required rate of return - Constant growth rate)
= 4.0824 ÷ (0.13 - 0.05)
= $51.03
Answer:
$1,498.86
Explanation:
Given that;
Packing of crates per month(u) = 779
Annual carrying cost of 39% of the purchase price per crate
Ordering cost (S) = $27
D = 779 × 12 = $9,348 crates per year
H = 0.39P
H = 0.39 × $12
H = $4.68 crates per year
Total ordering cost = D/Q × S
= ( $9,348 / 779 ) × $27
= $324
Total Holding cost = Q / 2 × H
= ( 779 / 2 ) × $4.68
= $1,822.86
Annual savings = Total holding cost - Total ordering cost
= $1,822.86 - $324
= $1,498.86
The firm would be saving $1,498.86 annually.
