Answer:
The straight line depreciation for the first year is $24000
Explanation:
The straight line method of depreciation charges/allocates a constant amount of depreciation through out the useful life of the asset. The straight line depreciation expense for the year is calculated as follows,
Straight line depreciation = (Cost - Salvage Value) / Estimated useful life
Straight line depreciation = (135000 - 15000) / 5 = $24000 per year
Thus, the amount of depreciation for first year under straight line method is $24000
This is because the lowest is the most efficient amout to make. As we increase number the extra costs of making those items will also increase.
Answer:
Ans. The equilibrium rate of return on a 1-year Treasury bond is 6.65% (please check the explanation)
Explanation:
Hi, well, this type of bonds exist so people can avoid the time value of money risk, in other words, to keep money save from inflation and provide a risk free return at the same time. From a part of the text I can tell that the person who wrote it wanted to add up the risk free rate and the inflation rate, that is 3.05%+3.60% =6.65%.
This is why I wrote this answer, but the truth is that since they are both effective rates (risk free rate and inflation), they need to be add as effective rates, that is:

Therefore


So the real equilibrium rate of return is 6.76%, but for the sake of the question, I wrote 6.65%.
Best of luck.
Answer:
C. $40,000
Explanation:
For computing the amount of the gain recognized, first we have to calculate the gain recognized based on the adjusted basis
= Cash received + fair market value of the stock - adjusted cash basis
= $40,000 + $60,000 - $35,000
= $100,000 -$35,000
= $65,000
But the cash is received for $40,000. So, only $40,000 of gain would be recognized. As in the case of transfer, if the amount is received other than the stock so the amount which is received is recognized as a gain i.e $40,000
