This is the full question:

At the beginning of 2016, Air Asia purchased a used airplane at a cost of $40,000,000. Air Asia expects the plane to remain useful for eight years (5,000,000 miles) and to have a residual value of $5,000,000. Air Asia expects the plane to be flow 1,200,000 the first year and 1,400,000 the second year.

1) Compute second-year (2017) depreciation expense using the following methods

a. Straight-line

b. Units-of-production

c. Double-declining-balance

2) Calculate the balance in Accumulated Depreciation at the end of the second year for all three methods:

Answer:

Explanation:

1)a) Straight-line

Depreciable base = Cost of the Asset - Residual Value

                              = $40,000,000 - $5,000,000

                              = $35,000,000

Depreciation expense per year = Depreciable base / years of useful life

                                                     = $35,000,000 / 8

                                                     = $4,375,000

The depreciation expense for the second year is = $4,375,000

                                                                                       

b) Units-of-production

Units of Production Rate = Depreciable Base / Units Over Useful Life

                                        = $35,000,000 / 5,000,000 miles

                                        = 7

Depreciation Expense = Units of Production Rate x Actual Units Produced

                                      = 7 x 1,400,000 miles in the second year

                                      = $9,800,000

c. Double-declining-balance

Double-declining balance = 2 x (Asset Cost - Residual Value ) / Useful Life of the Asset

                                           = 2 x ($40,000,000 - $5,000,000) / 8

                                           = $8,750,000

2) a) Straight-line Accumulated depreciation

We simply multiply the previous answer by two = $4,375,000 x 2

                                                                              = $8,750,000

2) b) Units-of-production Accumulated depreciation

First we find the depreciation expense for the first year using the same formula as above

= 7 x 1,200,000

= $8,400,000

Finally we simply add up depreciation expense for the two years

= $8,400,000 + $9,800,000

= $18,200,000

2) c) Double-declining-balance Accumulated depreciation

We simply multiply the first result by two = $8,750,000 x 2

                                                                    = $17,500,000

docker41 [41]

Answer:

$250,000

Explanation:

The depreciable cost of the equipment is the amount that will be used to provide for depreciation on the asset also known as Depreciable Amount.

<em>Depreciable Cost = Cost - Salvage Value</em>

therefore,

Depreciable Cost = $300,000 - $50,000 = $250,000

Artist 52 [7]

Answer and explanation:

Location is one of the many factors businesses must consider at the moment of starting operations. Commercial areas tend to have higher rent and property prices. Typically, businessmen deal with it by increasing their products price so they can cover expenditures and make a profit. At the same time, most consumers are willing to pay the higher price for the product because it removes the need for relocation even if it could imply moving one or two blocks away.

Sholpan [36]
The answer to this item is letter <em>C. PRICE ELASTIC. </em>

The price elastic demand as stated in this given corresponds to the increase or rise in the total revenue when the price is brought down or decreased. This is indicated by the PED (price elasticity of demand).

The total revenue is calculated by multiplying the total items, good, or services sold by the unit price. For the demand which is price elastic, the decrease in the price will cause a higher raise in the number of customer vying for the products and services.
