Answer:

The correct answer is B that is gain of $1,000

Explanation:

The amount of gain or loss on the disposal of the fixed assets is computed as:

Amount of loss or gain = (Selling Price + Accumulated depreciation) - Cost of fixed assets

where

Selling Price is $27,500

Accumulated depreciation is $3,500

Cost of fixed assets is $30,000

Putting the values above:

= ($27,500 + $3,500) - $30,000

= $31,000 - $30,000

= $1,000

It is a gain of $1,000 on disposal of the fixed assets.

Tems11 [23]

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

= \frac{\$ 512,500}{\$ 1,200,000}

= 0.427

The total payback period

= 2.43 years

Paid in capital in excess of par-Common stock  (39,000,000-33,000,000)        Cr.$6,000,000  

As the book value of preferred stock is greater than the price paid at the time of conversion into common stock,therefore excess amount is paid in capital in excess of par for common stocks.As the preferred stock is reduced by their book value,therefore it is debited and common stock is credited with its cost.

E25-18 Making outsourcing decisions Cool Systems manufactures an optical switch that it uses in its final product. The switch ha
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

From a cost savings perspective the switch should be made in-house

Explanation:

In deciding whether Cool Systems should make or buy the switch , we calculate the relevant applicable to  both situations,then compare t see which option saves costs.

The cost of making the switch is calculated thus:

Direct materials per unit      $5

Direct labor                           $3

Variable overhead                <u>$6</u>

Total relevant cost               <u> $14</u>    

The cost of purchasing the switch from another supplier is $15

From the above analysis, it is preferable to make the switch in-house as that option saves $1($15-$14) per switch.

However, it might be that we need to look beyond cost savings sometimes,purchasing the switch from another supplier might be viable if the quality of the outside switch is better or that the outside supplier can deliver in timely fashion.
