Answer:

No information given regarding depreciation method Therefore, it is assume P.T Scope Company will use the Straight line Depreciation Method in order to get book value on Dec 31, 2012 and Book value computer system is $1080.

Explanation:

Using Straight line depreciation method the value of Computer system at Dec 31, 2012 is $1080

Depreciation = (cost of asset - Salvage value) / Useful life of asset

Note: In straight line depreciation method the depreciation expense remain constant as it based on the original cost of assets.

Depreciation expense on Dec 31, 2011 = ($3240 - 0 ) / 3 = $1080

Book value on Dec 31, 2011 = $3240 - $1080 = $2160

Depreciation expense on Dec 31, 2012 = ($3240 - 0 ) / 3 = $1080  

Book value on Dec 31, 2012 = $2160 - $1080 = $1080

Straight line depreciation method calculate book value based on the original cost and book value is calculated using Year starting value minus Depreciation expense. Hence, Book value reduce as asset continue to use in business until it reaches to zero or salvage value.

If the structural unemployment rate is 3%, the frictional unemployment rate is 2%, and the cyclical unemployment rate is 4%, the
Damm [24]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

In this scenario, the natural rate of unemployment would be 5% = 3% of frictional unemployment plus 2% of cyclical unemployment. The other type of unemployment that is part of the natural rate is not referenced in the question (surplus unemployment).

Cyclical unemployment is not added up because it is not part of natural unemployment.

In fact, what natural unemployment basically is, is unemployment that does not depend on business cycle, that is not cyclical. In that sense, cyclical unemployment is totally the opposite to natural unemployment, and you only reach a rate of natural unemployment, when cyclical unemployment is eliminated in a healthy economy.

Aleks [24]

Answer:

a. $9,338

b. 0.363

Explanation:

a. Contribution Margin  = Sales - Variable Cost

Where Sales = $25,700

Variable Cost = Food & Packaging + Payroll + 40% x General, Selling and Administrative expenses

V.C. = 8,982 + 6,500 + 40% * 3,700

V.C = 8,982 + 6,500 + 1,480

= $16,362

Therefore, Contribution Margin  = Sales - Variable Cost  

= $25,700 - $16,362

=$9,338

b. McDonald's contribution margin ratio  = Contribution Margin / Sales

= $9,338 / $25,700

= 0.363
