marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

c. $10,000

Explanation:

Depreciation per year = (Cost of equipment - Salvage) / useful life

Depreciation for 1 year (Jan 1,2006 - Jan, 2007) = (60000-0)/3 = 20,000

However, on January 2007, the remaining useful life will change from 2 years to 5-1 = 4 years

Beginning 2007,

accumulated depreciation = 20,000

Remaining Book value of equipment = 60,000 - 20,000 = 40,000

Depreciation for Year 2007  will be = ($40,000 -0)/4 = $10,000

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

Even though the democratic republic of Congo is rich in natural resources while Switzerland has almost no natural resources, but Switzerland is among one of the richest countries while Congo is among the poorest.  

This indicates that abundant natural resources are not the only factor required for economic growth. Other factors such as human capital, physical capital, state of technology, etc. are also necessary for economic growth. Abundant natural resources cannot be efficiently utilized without these factors.  

Even if a country is not rich in natural resources but possesses these factors, it can still have high economic growth.

enyata [817]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": Wal-Mart employed a preemptive strategy.
