Answer:

The journal entry is shown below:

Explanation:

The journal entry is as follows for recording the depreciation:

Depreciation expense A/c.........................Dr  $ 14,400

           Accumulated depreciation...............Cr   $ 14,400

Working Note:

Depreciation rate = 100 % / Number of years of life

= 100 % / 10 years

= 10%

This will be multiplied by 2

= 10% × 2

Depreciation rate = 20%

Using the double declining method:

In year 2019

Depreciation expense = Cost of purchasing × Depreciation rate

= $180,000 × 20%

= $36,000

In year 2020

Depreciation expense = ( Cost of purchasing - Depreciation expense of last year) × Depreciation rate

= ($180,000 - $36,000) × 20%

= $144,000 × 20%

= $28,800

Using the Straight Line method:

In the year 2021

Depreciation expense = (Cost of purchasing - Depreciation expense of 2 years) / Number of years of useful life

= ($180,000 - $64,800) /  8

= $115,200 / 8

= $14,400

mario62 [17]

Answer:

$34,000

Explanation:

Given the above information, the computation of segment margin for product P is shown below;

Net operating profit = (Segment margin Q + Segment margin P) - Common fixed expenses

$26,000 = ($48,000 + Segment margin P) - $56,000

$26,000 = $48,000 + Segment margin P - $56,000

$26,000 = Segment margin P - $8,000

Segment margin P = $26,000 + $8,000

Segment margin P = $34,000

A nonprofit group organizes its local fundraisers in teams, with each of its L team leaders responsible for D group directors, a
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

Each of L team leaders has D group directors, making the total number of group directors equal to (L)(D). And each of those group directors has F fundraisers, again requiring multiplication: that total is (L)(D)(F). (You can try this by plugging in small numbers - if each of 2 leaders has 3 directors, you know there would be 6 directors)

So while statement 1 is not sufficient (there are multiple combinations that could get you to 81, such as L = 1, D = 2, and F = 39; or L = 1, D = 5, and F = 15), statement 2 guarantees that there is only one team leader. This is because 5 is a prime number, and you know that the number of group directors = LD. The only possible way for LD to equal 5 is if L is 1 and D is 5, or if D is 1 and L is 5. And since the stimulus tells you that there are more directors than leaders, the combination must be 5 directors and 1 leader. Accordingly, statement 2 is sufficient.
