On January 2, 2015, Alvarez Company purchased an electroplating machine to help manufacture a part for one of its key products.

The machine cost $250,500 and was estimated to have a useful life of six years or 700,000 cuttings, after which it could be sold for $25,500.

Answer:

Straight line for 2015-2020= $37,500 each year

Double Declining 2015 = $83,500, other years are explained

Untis of production 2015= $45,000.2, other years are in the explanation.

Explanation:

The completion of the question is as follows

FOr Units of Production,  (Assume annual production in platings of 140,000; 180,000; 100,000; 110,000; 80,000; and 90,000.)

The question is to determine and compute the depreciation expense for 2015-2020 as follows

a) Straight line method

Formula = Cost of Equipment - The residual value / useful life of the equipment

= $250,500- $25,500 / 6 years

= $37,500

Year 2015 = $37,500

Year 2016 = $37,500

Year 2017 = $37,500

Year 2018 = $37,500

Year 2019 = $37,500

Year 2020 = $37,500

b) Double Declining Balance

Formula = The straight line method rate x 2 x The net book value of the machine

= 1/6 x 2 x $250,500

2015= $83,500

2016 = 1/6 x 2 x $250,500- $83,500 = $55,666.67

following the same process of getting the book value for each year, subtract the depreciation from the book vaule for the next year

2017= 31,111.11

2018= 24,740.74

2019= 16,493..83

2020= 7,487.65

c)The unit of productio method

First we get the unit cost = The Cost of the machine - its salvage value/ the number of cuttings

= $250500-$25500 / 700,000 cuttings = 0.32143

Year 2015 = 0.32143 x 140,000 = 45,000.2

Year 2016 = 0.32143 x 180,000= 57,857.4

Year 2017 = 0.32143 x 100000= 32,413

Year 2018 = 0.32143 x 110,000= 35,357.3

Year 2019 = 0.32143 x 80,000= 25,714.4

Year 2020 = 0.32143 x 90,000= 28,928.7

Annual Operating Income would reduce by $78,000.

Explanation:

a) Calculation of the Net Income Lost:

Loss of Contribution        ($99,000)

Avoidable fixed cost          $21,000

Reduction of Income       ($78,000)

b) The line of purses contributes $80,000 towards the company's fixed cost.  Therefore, discontinuing this line of business would lead to the loss of this steam of income.  The amount of reduced operating income will be $78,000 ($80,000 - 2,000).

Alpha Industries stock sold for $39 a share at the beginning of the year. During the year, the company paid a dividend of $3 a s
nadezda [96]

Answer: c. capital loss.

Explanation:

A capital loss refers to a scenario where the price of a security falls below the price at which it was purchased. This is what happened to the Alpha Industries stock above as the price dropped from $39 to $37 which led to a capital loss of $2.

The dividends paid seem to outweigh the capital loss but we cannot be certain of this unless we know the tax rate being applied to the dividends and because these are usually high, the after tax dividends might have been lower the capital loss of $2.

The degree of risk is associated with the probability or magnitude of loss.
pochemuha

The degree of risk is associated with the probability or magnitude of loss. The given statement is true.

The area of mathematics known as probability deals with numerical representations of the likelihood that an event will occur or that a statement is true. An event's probability is a number between 0 and 1, where, roughly speaking, 0 denotes the event's impossibility and 1 denotes certainty.

Simply put, probability is the likelihood that something will occur. When we don't know how an event will turn out, we can discuss the likelihood or likelihood of several outcomes. Statistics is the study of events that follow a probability distribution.

Nuetrik [128]

Answer: c. Incremental

Explanation:

Simply put incremental cashflow is the additional cashflow that accrues to a company when it takes on a new project. The Multinational company should therefore consider this when they are accepting a project.

If the new project has a positive incremental cashflow, it will add to the cashflows of the company and so should be initiated as opposed to those with negative incremental cashflows.
