Answer:

d. Straight-line.

Explanation:

Depreciation: Depreciation is an expense indicating a reduction in the value of fixed assets due to tear and wear, obsolescence, usage, time period, etc. It is shown on the income statement debit line. It is a non-cash item not impacting the cash balance.

In the straight-line method, the depreciation expense would be lowest in this method and it remains the same for the remaining useful life

In the double-declining method, the depreciation rate is doubled and contain the highest value

In the sum of the year digit, we sum the useful life like 5 years so we sum 5+4+3+2+1 = 15 years and divide it to the useful life i.e 5

In the composite or group, the depreciation is taken for the group, not for the individual company

ololo11 [35]
To find the margin of safety in dollars, subtract the breakeven sales from the budged or actual sales. 

Current sales are 41,800 units 
Break even point in units is 33,900
Cost per unit is $170

(33,900)($170) = $5,763,000
(41,800)($170) = $7,106,000

The margin of safety in dollars is:
$7,106,000 - $5,763,000 = $1,343,000

Sati [7]

Answer:

The price per share should be $22.5

Explanation:

The price earnings multiple or P/E tells us how much price the investors are willing to pay for $1 earnings of the company.

We first need to calculate the earnings per share of the company.

Earnings per share = Net Income / Number of outstanding common shares

Earnings per share = 1500000 / 1000000  =  $1.5 per share

Using the P/E for the industry, the price per share of Flintstone should be,

P/E = Price per share / Earnings per share

15 = Price per share / 1.5

15 * 1.5 = Price per share

Price per Share = $22.5
