Drupady [299]

Answer:

Mergers and acquisitions consist of either joining two or more firms, or having one firm acquire another firm.

The rationale behind a merger or acquisiton is always strategic: a merger or an acquisition is carried out with the goal of improving the economic position and performance of the firms involved.

Some business strategies that can be implemented by a merger or acquisition are:

Horizontal integration: companies that sell similar products merge in order to join forces and expand their market reach.
Vertical integration: companies in the same industry, but that sell different products (for example, one company sells cars and the other sells bikes) merge in order to expand their market share.
Conglomerate formation: companies in different industries join in order to expand their markets even more.

On October 1, 2022, Ivanhoe Company places a new asset into service. The cost of the asset is $87500 with an estimated 5-year li

Dimas [21]

Answer:

$3150

Explanation:

Given:

Cost of the asset purchased = $87500 (on 1st October. 2022)

Salvage value at the end of its useful life = $24500

Useful life estimated = 5 years

Question asked:

What is the depreciation expense for 2022 if Ivanhoe Company uses the straight-line method of depreciation?

Solution:

As we know:

$Straight-Line\ Depreciation\ Expense=\frac{Cost\ - Salvage\ Value}{Useful\ Life\ of\ the\ Asset}$

$=\frac{87500-24500}{5} =\frac{63000}{5} =12600$

Depreciation expenses per year = $12600

But we have to find depreciation expenses for 2022 for:-

From 1st October, 2022 to 31st December, 2022 = 3 months.

Straight-Line Depreciation Expense for Partial Year = 

 $D\times\frac{N}{12} \\\\ D=Depreciation\ expense\ for\ a\ complete\ year.\\N= Number\ of\ months\ during\ which\ the\ fixed\ asset\ was\ available\ for\ use$

Depreciation Expense for 3 months = $12600\times\frac{3}{12} =\frac{37800}{12} =3150$

Therefore, the depreciation expense for 2022 if Ivanhoe Company uses the straight-line method of depreciation is $3150.

If you were wrongfully put

Neko [114]

Answer:

If you were wrongfully put into an insane asylum, how would you convince them that you're actually sane and not just pretending to be sane? Why?

When one seeks for an asylum, at that moment in time there is no choice of the location or group of people it could be once it is far away from war zone or trouble or danger zone where one can find peace at least. Then if it is an insane asylum, the only way to prove of his sanity by doing what is termed as wrong, i mean doing what seems to others as wrong which would depict his sanity that is different from others. while pretending to be like others that are insane would only paint such an individual as insane as well because it would take time to prove such not to be insane.
