<span>Nutrition Labeling and Education Act
This act requires nutrition labeling on food and standardizes terms such as serving size, "low fat", "light", and the such. It prevents things such as claiming "low calorie" cause the "calories per serving" is only half of the competitors, while specifying an absurdly low serving size that's also half the size the competitors use.</span>
Answer:
Annual depreciation= $197,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchasing price= $1,040,000
Residual value= $55,000
Useful life in years= 5
<u>Under the straight-line method, the annual depreciation is the same during the useful life of the machine. To calculate the annual depreciation, we need to use the following formula:</u>
Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)
Annual depreciation= (1,040,000 - 55,000)/5= $197,000
Answer:
Explanation:
1) The total cost of reducing runoff if the farmers are not allowed to trade permits is:
total loss = farmer A' loss + farmer B's loss
where:
- farmer A's loss = (100 - 50) x $25 = $1,250
- farmer B's loss = (100 - 50) x $50 = $2,500
total loss = $1,250 + $2,500 = $3,750
2) The total cost of reducing runoff if the farmers are allowed to trade permits is:
Since farmer A will be willing to sell his permits to farmer B for a price that is ≥ $25 and ≤ $50, the total cost of reducing runoff is $2,500.
If farmer A sells his runoff permit at a price higher than $25 his costs will decrease but farmer B's costs will increase, so any gain due to price change is offset by the other farmer's loss.
