Answer:

The amount deposited today is $56,603.77

Explanation:

First of all, let us lay out the information clearly :

final amount to be realized = $60,000

return on investment = 6% = 0.06

Let the amount to be invested be P

6% of P + P = $60,000

0.06P + P = 60,000

1.06P = 60,000

∴ P = 60,000 ÷ 1.06 = 56,603.77 ( to 2 decimal places).

Therefore, the amount deposited today, that will yield a 6% return on investment to yield $60,000 is $56,603.77

Masja [62]
When identical units of an item are purchased at different costs: <span>an inventory cost flow method must be used under both a perpetual and a periodic inventory system.

A perpetual inventory system will update your inventory on hand after each sale or purchase of inventory is made.  A periodic inventory system is updated periodically, meaning, a company will give a time period they would like their sales and purchases to update in and the system will perform that. Both systems are great for a business but it's their option of how they are generated.

If a finance lease contains a bargain purchase option, the lessee should amortize the leased asset: Multiple Choice Over the ter
Finger [1]

Answer:

Over the economic life of the asset.

Explanation:

An asset obtained under a financial lease must be depreciated in the same way as the company would depreciate any other similar fixed asset. E.g. a leased truck should be depreciated similarly to other trucks owned by the company.

In a financial lease, the lessor amortizes the asset's value, while the lessee depreciates the assets as common fixed assets (a lessee doesn't amortize).
