Answer: Straight line method of depreciation
Explanation: Under the straight line method of depreciation the asset is expensed over its useful life. In this method, depreciation or amortization is calculated by dividing the difference of initial cost and salvage value of the asset from its useful number of years.
This method is not commonly used for assets having longer term period but still some business entities use it as it is easy to calculate.
Answer:
The correct answers are:
1) "B": a common resource.
2) "A": excludable and rival.
Explanation:
1) A common resource is one that provides tangible benefits. This is the type of resource that can be used by several people at the same time without excluding the availability for its use to others. If they are not owned by anyone they take the name of open-access resources.
2) A good is excludable and rival if someone can prevent the use of it and when its use necessarily implies others not using it. Under this category fall all private resources since their ownership belongs to a certain number of people only if not only one.
Answer:
$6.25 per ton of coal
Explanation:
the depletion base = purchase cost + restoration costs
- purchase cost = $20 million
- restoration costs = $6 million
depletion base = $26,000,000
depletion rate per ton of coal = (depletion base - salvage value) / estimated reserves = ($26,000,000 - $1,000,000) / 4,000,000 = $6.25 per ton of coal
The depletion rate follows the same concepts as depreciation of fixed assets, but instead of using a fixed asset, you are extracting materials and decreasing the value of the deposits.
Answer:
Original cost of the stock = $23.16
Explanation:
Original cost of the stock = Selling price of stock / ( 1 + r )^n
Original cost of the stock = $50 / (1+8%)^10
Original cost of the stock = $50 / (1.08)^10
Original cost of the stock = $23.16
Answer:
$10
Explanation:
Price Q Demanded Q Supplied Domestically Q Supplied by Importers $6 13,000 2,000 8,000
$7 12,000 4,000 8,000
$8 11,000 6,000 8,000
$9 10,000 8,000 8,000
<u>$10 9,000 = 9,000 </u><u> </u> 8,000
$11 8,000 10,000 8,000
If there is no international trade allowed, then we should look for the price at which the quantity demanded is equal to the quantity supplied by domestic producers. At $10 per widget, the total quantity demanded is 9,000 units and the total quantity supplied by domestic producers is 9,000 units.
