Answer:
$6,666.67 and $10,000
Explanation:
The computation of the depreciation expense for the year 2017 and 2018 is shown below:
= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)
= ($88,000 - $8,000) ÷ (8 years)
= ($80,000) ÷ (8 years)
= $10,000
Since the machinery is purchased on April 30 and we assume the books are closed on December 31 so the number of months calculated is 8 months
Therefore for the year 2017 the depreciation expense is
= $10,000 × 8 months ÷ 12 months
= $6,666.67
And, for the year 2018 the depreciation expense is same i.e $10,000
Answer:
They should not make the change because the price of the stocks will decrease.
Explanation:
the current price of the stocks using the perpetuity formula = dividend / required rate of return
current price with current capital structure = $5.64 / 0.123 = $45.85
if the company changes its capital structure by increasing debt, the price of the stocks will be
$5.92 / 0.136 = $43.53
since the price of the stocks would actually decrease if the capital structure changes, the change should not be made. The stockholders' wealth is measured by the price of the stocks, and if the price of the stocks decreases, then the stockholders' wealth also decreases.
Answer:
b. some firms exit, industry supply decreases, market price rises.
Explanation:
A perfect competitive industry is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms.
If firms are making economic loss is the short run, in the long run, firms leave the industry. This leads to a fall in supply and prices rise as a result. In the long run, firms in a competitive industry earn zero economic profit.
