$12120 is the annual amortization expense

<u>Explanation:</u>

The following formula is used to calculate the annual depreciation expense that will be recorded in the books of accounts

Depreciation = ( cost of the asset minus salvage value) divide by number of years.

Given data in the question: number of years = 10, cost of the asset = $124000, salvage value = $28000

Putting the figures in the formula,

Depreciation expense = ($124000 minus $28000) divide by 10

After solving, we get = $12120

Thus, annual depreciation expense = $12120

What can a food surplus lead to?
gayaneshka [121]
A food surplus in a society can lead to many different things. But based on the principles of supply and demand a surplus of food should lead to a reduction in the price of food, because the quantity supplied is most likely higher than the quantity demanded. In addition a food surplus could lead a country or companies to sell their food surplus internationally or to "dump" the goods on another country or market by selling the goods for a very cheap price most likely lower than the price of the good in that market prior to the entry of this new producer or country with the food surplus.

Suppose that Techno TV produces LCD televisions. At a price of $2,000 per television, Techno determines that its optimal output
prohojiy [21]

Answer: The answer is b. Reduce output in the short run.

Explanation: In production, to determine the quantity of products to supply, the demand of the consumer plays a very vital role. This is because the consumer demand will determine the price at which a company will sell its products.

In the case of Techno above, they would do well to reduce the output in the short run, since demand has reduced, pending when the demand increases. This is because if they maintain their current output of 3000 TV sets per week, they will sell less units and their revenue (price x quantity sold) will be lower than their cost and this will lead to them incurring loss.

So until the recession scare passes, output should be reduced in the short run.
