Answer:
Straight-line = $3,900
Double Declining Method = $7,800
Activity Based = $3,600
Explanation:
1. Straight-line.
Depreciation Expense = (Cost of Asset - Salvage Value) / Useful Life
= $43,000 - $4,000 / 10
= $3,900
2. Double Declining Method
Deprectiation Expense = (2 x (Cost of Asset - Salvage Value)) / Useful Life
= 2 x ($43,000 - $4,000) / 10
= (2 x $39,000 ) / 10
= $78,000 / 10
= $7,800
3. Activity Based
Depreciation Expense = (Cost of Asset - Salvage Value) x Activity Peformed / Estimated Lifetime Acitity
= ($43,000 - $4,000) x 1,200 hours / 13,000 hours
= $39,000 x 1,200 / 13,000
= $3,600
Answer:
8%
Explanation:
The formula and the computation of the price elasticity of supply is shown below:
Price elasticity of supply = (Percentage change in quantity supplied ÷ percentage change in price)
where,
Price elasticity of supply = 0.4
And, the percentage change in price = 20%
So, the percentage change in quantity supplied is
= Price elasticity of supply × the percentage change in price
= 0.4 × 20%
= 8%
It shows a direct relationship between the quantity supplied and the price.
Answer:
The payback period for this project is 2.43 years.
Explanation:
Elmer Sporting Goods is getting ready to produce a new line of golf clubs by investing $1.85 million.
The investment will result in additional cash flows of $525,000, $812,500, and 1,200,000 over the next three years.
The payback period is the time it takes to cover the investment to be covered by returns.
The investment cost remaining in the first year
= $1,850,000 - $525,000
= $1,325,000
The investment cost remaining in the second year
= $1,325,000 - $812,500
= $512,500
The third year payback
= 
= 0.427
The total payback period
= 2.43 years
The total cost of the lone will be lower
Answer:
Value Added = Value of Output - Intermediate Consumption = Final Goods . Value
Explanation:
This can be explained with an example:
A produces flour & sells it to Grocer for Rs 100. Grocer produces Wheat & sells it to Baker for Rs 150. Baker produces bread & sells it to Consumers for Rs 200.
Value of Final Product (Used by end consumers) i.e Bread = Rs 200.
However if considering total Value Of Output including all value added at each stage = 100 + 150 + 200 = 450. This is Overestimated value of Final product Bread, because of 'Double Counting' - Grocer's wheat includes the intermediate good (good purchased for further resale/reprocessing) value of flour and Baker's bread includes value of Wheat & flour intermediate products both.
This problem can be solved by: Calculating Value Added (by subtracting intermediate consumption) at each stage & then summing it to get the Final good value.
In this case: Farmer's Value Added = VO - IC = Flour Value - 0 = 100 .
Grocer's Value Added = VO - IC = Wheat - Flour Value = 150 - 100 = 50
Baker's Value Added = VO - IC = Bread - Wheat Value = 200 - 150 = 50
Adding value added by all these 3 we get , 150 + 50 + 50 = 200 i.e equal to final good bread value 200.
