Answer:

6 pounds of dried apples and 14 pounds of dried apricots

Explanation:

A = dried apples

B = dried apricots

1.3A + 1.6B = 1.51 x 20 = 30.2

A + B = 20

A = 20 - B

Replace A:

1.3(20 - B) + 1.6B = 30.2

26 - 1.3B + 1.6B = 30.2

0.3B = 30.2 - 26 = 4.2

B = 4.2 / 0.3 = 14

A = 6

Accrued Net Income will be calculated as below:

Sales                                                    $72800

Less Expenses                                     $20400

Cash Income                                         $52400

Less: Depreciation                                 $4900

Add: Accounts Receivable Inc              $4500

Less: Reduction in Prepaid Exp             $1900

Add: Reduction in Acc Liab                    $1700

Accrued Income                                   $51800

Depreciation will be reduced as its an expense and all expenses will be reduced.

Increase in Accounts Recievables indicate there have been sales which have not been paid for yet, thus sales will increase and this needs to be added

Reduction in Prepaid Expenses refer to expenses being paid off earlier but now need to be recognised, thus these need to be added to expenses

Reduction in accrued liabilitites indicate that expenses of previous period have been paid off now thus those need to be reduced from cash expenses.

A machine costing $450,000 with a four-year life and an estimated $30,000 salvage value is installed by Lux Company on January 1
Tasya [4]

Answer:

$112,500

Explanation:

Depreciation expense using the double declining method = Depreciation factor x cost of the asset

Depreciation factor = 2 x (1/useful life)  

Depreciation expense in year 1 = 2/4 x $450,000 = $225,000

Book value at the beginning of year 2 =  $450,000 - $225,000 =  $225,000

Depreciation expense in year 2 = 2/4 x $225,000 = $112,500

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

200 units      

Explanation:

For computing the number of units produced each time we need to applied the economic order quantity formula which is shown below:

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}}

where,

Annual demand is 1,600 units

Ordering cost per order is $25

And, the carrying cost or holding cost per unit per year is $2

Now placing these values to the above formula

So, the economic order quantity is

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{1,600}\times \text{\$25}}{\text{\$2}}}

= 200 units
