Answer:

Budget deficit / Fiscal deficit

Explanation:

At the start of the year, every government prepares a budget e.g. all sources of revenue (direct taxes, indirect taxes, aids etc) and projected expenses are also mentioned (development of society, defense etc.).

When a government spends more than its revenue from taxes so it means that government is running a budget deficit or a fiscal deficit which are covered through fiscal measures by government e.g. increasing taxes or reducing public spending.

Answer:

$10,000

Explanation:

Depreciation of an asset is the systematic allocation of estimated cost to an asset over time. It is added over the years to get the accumulated depreciation that is netted off the cost to get the net book value.

It is given as

Depreciation = (Cost - Salvage value)/Estimated useful life

Depreciation expense for Year 1 (the first year of the asset's life) under the straight-line method would be

= ( $60,000 - $10,000 ) / 5

= $50,000/5

= $10,000

Answer:

Cost per equivalent unit of material = $2.20 per unit

Cost per equivalent unit of conversion = $4 unit

Explanation:

The computation of Cost per equivalent unit of material, Cost per equivalent unit of conversion is shown below:-

For computing the cost per equivalent first we need to find the equivalent unit of material which is below:-

= Transferred units + ( Department units × Material percentage)

= 135,000 + (20,000 × 40%)

= 135,000 + 8,000

= 143,000

So, the Cost per equivalent unit of material = (Beginning material cost + Current month material cost) ÷ Equivalent unit of material

= ($32,400 + $282,240) ÷ 143,000

= $314,640 ÷ 143,000

= $2.20 per unit

Now, For computing the Cost per equivalent unit of conversion first we need to find the equivalent unit of conversion cost which is below:-

= Transferred units + ( Department units × Conversion percentage)

= 135,000 + (20,000 × 15%)

= 135,000 + 3,000

= 138,000

So, the Cost per equivalent unit of conversion = (Beginning conversion cost + Current month conversion cost) ÷ Equivalent unit of conversion cost

= ($6,250 + $544,700) ÷ 138,000

= $550,950 ÷ 138,000

= 3.99

or $4 unit
