Answer:

1.89 years and 2.91 years

Explanation:

The formula to compute the payback period is shown below:

= Initial investment ÷ Net cash flow

For first case

The initial investment is $260,000

And, the net cash flow is shown below:

= Depreciation + incremental after tax income

where,

Depreciation equals to

= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)

= ($260,000 - $10,000) ÷ (4 years)

= ($20,000) ÷ (4 years)  

= $62,500

And the incremental after tax income is $75,000

So, the net cash flow would equal to

= $62,500 + $75,000

= $137,500

So, the payback period would be

= $260,000 ÷ $137,500

= 1.89 years

For second case

The initial investment is $170,000

And, the net cash flow is shown below:

= Depreciation + incremental after tax income

where,

Depreciation equals to

= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)

= ($170,000 - $14,000) ÷ (9 years)

= ($156,000) ÷ (9 years)  

= $17,333

And the incremental after tax income is $41,000

So, the net cash flow would equal to

= $17,333 + $41,000

= $58,333

So, the payback period would be

= $170,000 ÷ $58,333

= 2.91 years

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Current Ratio = 1.67:1

Acid Test Ratio = 0.1:1

Gross Profit Margin = 66%

Explanation:

Cash.......1000

Merchandise inventory...12,500

Store supplies....5800

Prepaid Insurance...2400

Accounts Payable...................10,000

Sales..............................111950

Cost of Goods Sold....38,400

Store supplies still available at fiscal year-end amount to $1,900. Expired insurance, an administrative expense, for the fiscal year is $1,650. Depreciation expense on store equipment, a selling expense, is $1,600 for the fiscal year. To estimate shrinkage, a physical count of ending merchandise inventory is taken. It shows $11,000 of inventory is still available at fiscal year-end. 4. Compute the current ratio, acid-test ratio, and gross margin ratio as of January 31, 2018.

Therefore Balance Store supplies = 5800-1900

Prepaid Insurance = 2400-1650

Balance Inventory = 11,000

Current Ratio = Current Assets/ Current liabilities

Current Ratio = (1000 cash + 11,000 inventory + 3,900 Store supplies + 750 prepaid insurance) / 10,000 Accounts payable = 16650/10000 = 1.67

Current Ratio = 1.67:1

Acid test Ratio = Current Asset - inventory / Current Liabilities

(16,650 -  11,000 inventory - 3,900 Store supplies - 750 Prepaid Insurance) /10,000 = 0.1

Acid Test Ratio = 0.1:1

Gross Profit Margin = Gross Profit / Sales x 100

Gross Profit = Sales - Cost of Goods Sold = 111,950 - 38400 = 73550

Therefore Gross profit Margin = 73550/111950 x 100 = 66%

Gross Profit Margin = 66%

Both country 1 and country 2 are located on their respective production possibilities frontiers (PPFs) for consumer goods and ca
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

A) Country 1's PPF lies further to the right than country 2's PPF.

Explanation:

Production Possibility Curve shows the combination of two goods, that an economy can produce - by utilising given resources & technology best efficiently.

If country 1 produces twice the output of both goods compared to country 2. Then, country 1's PPF would lie further to the right than country 2's PPF.  As, more quantities implies rightward shifted PPC, signifying more quantities of goods that can be produced.

Efficient or inefficient production leads to production inside or on PPC, doesn't shift PPC. Population change is also irrelevant in this case.

Nitella [24]

Answer:

1. a. Callie =$375,000

b. Neil $25,000

2. Equal

Explanation:

The computation of given question is shown below:-

1. Adjusted Callie contribution = $300,000

Neil contribution = $100,000 × 50%

= $75,000

Callie basis in partnership interest after the formation = $300,000 + $75,000

= $375,000

Adjusted Neil contribution = $100,000

Neil contribution = $100,000 × 50%

= $75,000

Neil basis in partnership interest after the formation = $375,000 - $75,000

= $25,000

2. Equal or in Profit-Loss Sharing Ratio

In the profit - loss sharing ratio or equal when debt is allocated between the two partners

Brrunno [24]

Answer: A. debit of $3,745 to Premium on Bonds Payable.

Explanation:

The carrying value of the bonds at redemption date is $103,745.

The bonds retired however, had a face value of $100,000.

The company therefore paid a premium on these bonds which is:

= 103,745 - 100,000

= $3,745

This amount will be debited to the Premium on Bonds Payable account.
