ollegr [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option E.

STatiana [176]

If the demand for a good falls by less than the supply of the good rises, then the good’s equilibrium price will fall and its equilibrium quantity will rise.
According to the law of demand indicates that as price increases, consumers are willing and able to purchase less so the quantity demanded will fall and cause the downward sloping demand curve. So when price falls, consumers are willing and able to purchase more.

BigorU [14]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of two different depreciation schedules is shown below:-

a. Using the Double-declining balance method

Year            Equipment Cost      Depreciation rate     Amount

2005                $90,000                     50%                  $45,000

2006                $45,000                      50%                  $22,500

2007                $22,500                      50%                  $11,250

2008 No depreciation as it is lower that straight line method that is $22,500 also we took the double rate of 25% so we consider 50%

b. Using the straight line method

Straight Line Depreciation Method:

$100,000 - $10,000

= $90,000

Year            Equipment Cost      Depreciation rate      Amount

2005                $90,000                     25%                      $22,500

2006                $90,000                      25%                     $22,500

2007                $90,000                      25%                     $22,500

2008                $90,000                      25%                     $22,500

Depreciation rate is

= 1 ÷ 4 years

=  25
