Cost on January 1 2016 = $1,250,000
Life = 10 years
Therefore,
Double-declining depreciation rate = 2*(1,250,000/10)/1,250,000 = 2*0.1 = 2*10% = 20%
Book value at end of 2016 = 1,250,000 - (1,250,000*20/100) = $1,000,000
Book value at end of 2017 = 1,000,000 - (1,000,000*20/100) = $800,000
Book value at end of 2018 = 800,000 - (800,000*20/100) = $640,000
Changing to straight line depreciation:
Life remaining = 7 years
Book value = $640,000
Depreciation expense per year = 640,000/7 = $91,428.57
Therefore, depreciation expense for 2019 = $91,428.57
Answer:
The SRAS curve will shift to the right.
Explanation:
A decline in nominal wages will reduce the cost of hiring labor. The overall cost of production will reduce as well. The firms will be able to increase production and investment.
This increase in production and investment will increase the aggregate supply. As a result, the short-run aggregate supply curve will move to the right. This will cause the equilibrium price to fall and the equilibrium quantity to increase.
