Answer: Third

Explanation:

Diminishing returns to labor refers to the phenomenon where every additional worker leads to an increase in production at a decreasing rate.

Using the scenario described, when there was only one employee the company could mow 4 lawns a day. They added a 2nd worker and that figure went to 9 lawns a day which is an increase of FIVE.

When they added a 3rd worker, the figure again went up but only to 12 which is an increase of THREE only as opposed to the last increase of FIVE.

After the third worker therefore, there was an increase but at a smaller rate.

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

James and Short LLC

Short's capital account on July 1, 20X1 should be recorded at the fair value of contributed property minus the mortgage liability, which the partnership assumed.

Explanation:

The fair value of contributed property is the current market value of the contributed property by Short.  It is the market value that will determine how the contributed property can be valued.  The market value assumes that the contributed property is being sold in pieces and not as a whole.  This is why the value is considered a fair basis for recognizing the capital contribution of Short into the partnership.

You are given the following information for Ted’s Dread Co.: sales = $82,000; costs = $57,700; addition to retained earnings = $
vazorg [7]

Answer:$6,843.33=Depreciation

Explanation:

To Calculate the depreciation expense for the company

Net income = Dividends + Addition to retained earnings

Net income = $3,320 + 7,500

Net income = $10,820

Also,

Net income = Taxable income - (Taxable income)(Tax rate)

Net income = Taxable income(1 - Tax rate)

Therefore,

Taxable income = Net income / (1 - Tax rate)

Taxable income = $10,820 / (1 - 0.25

Taxable income = $10,820/0.75 =14,426.67

But

EBIT -interest = taxable income,So

EBIT = Taxable income + Interest

EBIT = $14,426.67+3,030

EBIT = 17,456.67

EBIT = Sales - Costs - Depreciation

$17,456.67 = $82000 - 57,700 - Depreciation

$17,456.67= 24,300-Deprecistion

Depreciation =24,300-17456.67 =

$6,843.33
