Perdue Company purchased equipment on April 1 for $38,880. The equipment was expected to have a useful life of three years, or 5
finlep [7]

Answer:

See explanation section.

Explanation:

Requirement 1

We know,

Depreciation expense under the straight-line method = (Cost price - residual value) ÷ useful life

The depreciation expense under the straight-line method remains same in every year.

December 31, Year 1 - depreciation expense = ($38,880 - $1,080) ÷ 3 years.

Depreciation expense = ($37,800 ÷ 3)

Depreciation expense = $12,600

Depreciation expense for year 1 = $12,600 × 9 ÷ 12

Depreciation expense for year 1 = $9,450

Requirement 2

The depreciation expense under the straight-line method remains the same every year.

Year 2 depreciation expense = ($38,880 - $1,080) ÷ 3 years = $12,600

Year 3 depreciation expense = ($38,880 - $1,080) ÷ 3 years = $12,600

Year 4 depreciation expense = ($38,880 - $1,080) ÷ 3 years = $12,600

The equipment will be dissolved after 4 year with a residual value of $1,080.

Requirement 3

The depreciation expense under units-of-activity method = [(Cost price - residual value) ÷ Total operating hours] × usage during the period.

Given,

Cost price = $38,880

residual value = $1,080

Total operating hours =  5,400

Putting the values into the formula, we can get

Depreciation expense rate = ($38,880 - $1,080) ÷  5,400

Depreciation expense rate = $37,800 ÷ 5,400

Depreciation expense rate = $7 per hour.

Depreciation expense for year 1 = $7 per hour × 1,000

Depreciation expense for year 1 = $7,000

Requirement 4

We get from requirement 3

Depreciation expense rate = $7 per hour.

Year 2 Depreciation expense = $7 per hour.

Depreciation expense for year 2 = $7 per hour × 1,900 hour.

Depreciation expense for year 2 = $13,300 hour.

Year 3 Depreciation expense = $7 per hour.

Depreciation expense year 3 = $7 per hour ×  1,600 hour.

Depreciation expense year 3 = $11,200 hour.

Year 4 Depreciation expense = $7 per hour.

Depreciation expense year 4 = $7 per hour ×  900 hour.

Depreciation expense year 4 = $6,300 hour.

Requirement 5

Depreciation rate under the double-declining-balance method = (100% ÷ useful life) ÷ 2

Depreciation rate = (100% ÷ 3 years) × 2

Depreciation rate = 66.67%

Depreciation expense for year 1 = cost price × depreciation rate

Given,

cost price = $38,880

depreciation rate = 66.67%

Putting the values into the formula, we can get

Depreciation expense for year 1 = cost price × depreciation rate

Depreciation expense for year 1 = $38,880 × 66.67%

Depreciation expense for year 1 = $25,921

Requirement 6

In double-declining-balance method, depreciation expense is decreasing.

Book value of year 1 after depreciation = Cost price - year 1 depreciation expense =  $38,880 - $25,921 = $12,959

Depreciation expense for year 2 = Book value of year 1 × depreciation rate.

Depreciation expense for year 2 = ($12,959 × 66.67%) = $8,640

Book value of year 2 after depreciation = Book value of year 1 - Depreciation expense for year 2 = $12,959 - $8,640 = $4,319

Depreciation expense for year 3 = Book value of year 2 × depreciation rate.

Depreciation expense for year 3 = $4,319 × 66.67% = $2,879.50

Book value of year 3 after depreciation = Book value of year 2 - Depreciation expense for year 3 = $4,319 - $2,879.50 = $1,439.5

Depreciation expense for year 4 = Book value of year 3 × depreciation rate.

Depreciation expense for year 4 = $1,439.5 × 66.67% = $960

D. estimate price elasticity of demand by experimenting with different prices.

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand is an economic concept which is a measure of the sensitivity of customers willingness to buy something to its price. If the customers readily change their buying behavior with a change in price of the product, it would mean that the demand for the product is elastic.

When firms are introducing new products, they generally determine the best selling price by experimenting with different prices and observing the buying behavior of customers. Then the choose the price which produces the maximum amount of revenue for the firm, which entails the price of the product and number of units sold.
