Answer:

CPI for the current year  = 200

Explanation:

Given;

Contents in market basket

20X, 30Y, and 50Z

The current-year prices for goods

X = $2

Y = $6

Z = $10

The base-year prices are

X = $1

Y = $3

Z = $5

Now,

Total cost of market basket in the current year

= ∑ (Quantity × Price)

= 20 × $2 + 30 × $6 + 50 × $10

= $40 + $180 + $500

= $720

Total cost of market basket in the base year

= ∑ (Quantity × Price)

= 20 × $1 + 30 × $3 + 50 × $5

= $20 + $90 + $250

= $360

also,

CPI for the current year = \frac{\textup{Cost of market basket at current year prices}}{\textup{Cost of market basket at base year prices}}\times100

or

CPI for the current year = \frac{\$720}{\$360}\times100

or

CPI for the current year = 200

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchasing price= $393,000

Salvage value= $74,000

The machine would be run 30000 hours in the 5 years. The company ran the machine for 3900 actual hours in 2018.

To calculate the depreciation expense using the units of activity method, we need to use the following formula on each year:

Annual depreciation= [(original cost - salvage value)/useful life of production in hours]*hours operated

Annual depreciation= [(393,000 - 74,000)/30,000]*3,900

Annual depreciation= $41,470
