Bumek [7]

Answer:

b. $765000

Explanation:

Depreciation is a non-cash item and as such will not be considered in the computation of the amount to be disbursed in the month.

Given that the company pays for 70% of its purchases in the month of purchase and the remaining 30% in the next month for direct materials, it means the company will pay 70% of the material purchase in August and 30% of July's purchase in August.

Hence, The budgeted cash disbursements for August are

= 70% * $530,000 + 30% * $370,000 + $160000 + $73,000 + $50,000

= $765,000

Doss [256]

Depreciation for 2019 and the equipment's book value at December 31, 2019, would be: $13,200 and $45,600 respectively

Explanation:

Cutter Enterprises uses straight-line depreciation method, Depreciation Expense per year is calculated by following formula:

Annual Depreciation Expense = (Cost of the equipment − Residual Value)/Useful Life  = ($72,000 - $6,000)/5 = $13,200

Depreciation Expense for 2018 = $13,200

Accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2018 = $13,200

Depreciation Expense for 2019 = $13,200

Accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2019 = $13,200 + $13,200 = $26,400

The equipment's book value at December 31, 2019 = Cost of the equipment - Accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2019 = $72,000 - $26,400 = $45,600
