Positive Messages and the Writing Process
vlada-n [284]

Answer: Refer to Explanation

Explanation:

1. a. Sales pitches, requests for favors - Persuasive.

When writing a Sales Pitch or Request for Favors Message, one must try to convince the intended receiver to buy the good being sold or to be willing to grant the favor requested. For this reason, the tone has to be persuasive.

b. Replies, goodwill messages, direct claims - Positive

These types of messages have to have a positive tone because they should come across in a friendly way so that the receiver may accept it as such.

c. Bad news, refusals - Negative

These are negative messages and as such should have a negative and indirect tone so that the receiver may understand the gravity of the message.

2. a. Make a list of points to cover.

d. Collect information.

e. Compose the first draft

The 3-x-3 writing process is a method of writing used to encourage a good writing flow.

It is divided into 3 stages being, <em>Prewriting, Writing</em> and <em>Revising</em>.

During Prewriting, one must determine why the are writing as well as who the message is intended for. Gilberto has done this already so the next step is the Writing stage.

The Writing stage includes, Making a list of points to cover so that the writing may be orderly and have the relevant information. It also includes researching where you collect information for the message to be written. And then finally composing the first draft which can then be scrutinized in the next stage.

3. Messages delivered through business letters are less likely to reach <u>unintended recipients </u>than messages delivered through <u>e-mail</u>.

Thus, business letters are more <u>confidential</u>.

Messages through Business letters have the intended recipients stated and usually get to the intended recipient as a result. Emails can sometimes be mixed up.

That fact means that business letters can carry more sensitive information and as such are more confidential.

On July 1, 2019, Pharoah Company purchased new equipment for $80,000. Its estimated useful life was 8 years with a $16,000 salva
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Pharoah Company

Revised Annual Depreciation on Dec. 31, 2022:

= Depreciable amount divided by 10 years

= $55,000/10 = $5,500

Explanation:

a) Data:

July 1, 2019: Equipment Purchase $80,000

Estimated useful life = 8 years

Salvage value = $16,000

b) Computations:

Depreciable amount = $64,000 ($80,000 - 16,000)

Annual Depreciation Expense = $8,000 ($64,000/8)

Six months Depreciation Expense = $4,000 ($8,000/2)

c) Accumulated Depreciation from July 1, 2019 to Jan. 1, 2022:

July 1, 2019 to Dec. 31, 2019 = $4,000

Jan. 1, 2020 to Dec. 31, 2020 = $8,000

Jan. 1, 2021 to Dec. 31, 2021 = $8,000

Total  =      $20,000

d) Revision of Estimates:

Jan. 1, 2022, Book Value = Cost minus Accumulated Depreciation ( $80,000 - $20,000) = $60,000

Re-estimated salvage = $5,000

Depreciable amount  =$55,000

Remaining useful life = 10 years

Annual Depreciation Expense = $5,500 ($55,000/10)

e) Depreciation is an accounting estimate used as a way of expensing the cost of a fixed asset over its useful life.  It is in line with the accrual concept and matching principle of generally accepted accounting principles, which require expenses and revenues to be matched to the related period, expenses and revenues.  It is based on the judgement of management and can be revised in line with changing circumstances and judgements.  There are many methods for accounting for depreciation, including the straight-line as above, the unit of production method, double declining, sum of the years digit method, and accelerated methods like the MACRS or Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System for tax accounting.
