Of the total expenditure, $2,900 represented ordinary repairs and annual maintenance and $11,850 represented the cost of the new feature.

Answer:

2016 Depreciation

Dr depreciation expense $5720

Cr Accumulated depreciation               $5720

2017 Depreciation

Dr depreciation expense $5720

Cr Accumulated depreciation               $5720

Journal entries for 2018 expenditure

Dr repairs and maintenance   $2900

Dr Equipment account             $11850

Cr Cash account                                          $14750

2018 Depreciation

Dr depreciation expense          $4800.83

Cr Accumulated depreciation                     $4800.83

Explanation:

There are two policies for depreciating non-current asset  especially when it is acquired part-way through the year like we have here, namely full year depreciation in the year of purchase and none in the year of disposal or proportional depreciation throughout the useful life,I am adopting the former in this question.

Formula for depreciation=cost-residual value/useful life

Yearly depreciation is ($57200-$0)/10=$5720

However,after two years the book value is calculated thus:

Book value=$57200-($5720*2)=$45760

additional cost incurred in enhancing the capacity of the asset would be added :  $45760 +$11,850=$57610

Since the useful life has also been reviewed up to 12 years, the depreciation from now on is $57610/12=$4800.83

Which of the following is NOT a necessary condition for oligopoly? differentiated products barriers to entry strategic dependenc
stepladder [879]

Answer:

differentiated products.

Explanation:

An oligopoly occurs when a few large firms dominate a market and they aim to maximise profit. The action of one firm has significant effect on the market, so the firm's are interdependent.

There are high barriers to entry including use of government liscences, patents, economies of scale, and actions taken by firms to discourage entry into the market.

However differentiation of products is not a necessary condition for oligopoly. Products can be homogenous or differentiated.
