EKG, Inc. is considering a new project that will require an initial cash investment of $419,000. The project will produce no cas
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

In 5.99 years, the invested amount is recovered.

Explanation:

In the payback, we analyze in how many years the invested amount is recovered. The computation is shown below:

In year 0 = $419,000

In year 1 = $0

In year 2 = $0

In year 3 = $69,000

In year 4 = $98,000

In year 5 = $109,000

In year 6 = $145,000

In year 7 = $165,000

If we sum the first 5 year cash inflows than it would be $276,000

Now we deduct the $276,000 from the $419,000 , so the amount would be $143,000 as if we added the fourth year cash inflow so the total amount exceed to the initial investment. So, we deduct it

And, the next year cash inflow is $145,000

So, the payback period equal to

= 5 years + $143,000 ÷ $145,000

= 5.99 years

In 5.99 years, the invested amount is recovered.

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

$1,400 should be recorded on December 31 for the Loss

Explanation:

Bowie Company uses straight-line depreciation method, Depreciation Expense each year is calculated by following formula:  

Annual Depreciation Expense = (Cost of machine − Salvage Value)/Useful Life = ($22,000-$1,000)/5 = $4,200

The machine was originally purchased on January 1, 2015.

Depreciation Expense for 2015 = Depreciation Expense for 2016 = Depreciation Expense for 2017 = Depreciation Expense for 2018 = $4,200

Accumulated depreciation  at December 31, 2018 = $4,200 x 4 = $16,800

Carrying amount of the machine = $22,000 - $16,800 = $5,200

Sales price - Carrying amount of the machine = $3,800 - $5,200 = -$1,400<0

The company recorded loss on the sale $1,400
