Answer:

The cost at which the truck will be recorded is $45700

Explanation:

The cost at which an asset should be recorded in the books of a business includes the all the costs that are incurred to purchase the asset and bring it to the location and condition necessary for use at it was intended. These costs are usually non recurring in nature.

The truck should be recorded at,

Purchase price                  40500

Sales tax paid                     2100

Shipping & Preparation     <u>3100</u>

Total cost                          <u> 45700</u>

<u />

The sales tax will be capitalized if it is not refundable.

The shipping and preparation cost are necessary for the truck to bring it to the location and condition necessary for it to use.

The insurance is a recurring expense and is not necessary cost to bring the truck to the location and condition necessary for it to use.

Answer:

Cost of truck = $45,700

Explanation:

<em>According to International Accounting Standards (IAS) 16, property plants and equipment, the cost of an assets includes all of the cost necessary to bring and make it ready for the intended use</em>.  

These costs include purchase cost, fees and commission associated with the purchase of the asset.  

Cost of the truck for record =40,500 + 2,100 + 3,100

                                               = $45,700

The insurance cost was incurred after the purchase and is not a cost necessary to bring the truck to for its intended use

I want to start my own brand &amp; build a fashion empire. Should I go to a fashion college or to a business school?
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Honestly, business would be much better for you. Learning business will give you many more opportunities and learn how to sell your products. Business will help you with marketing, pricing, discounting, and know how to "not get effed over." I believe that would be much better for you THEN go to fashion college.

The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows,

At December 31, 2011 the accounting records of Gordon, Inc. contain the following items:

Accounts Payable 2500

Land 30000

Building 31250

Notes Payable ?

Retained earnings 125000

Accounts Receivable 18750

Cash ?

Equipment 40000

Capital Stock 12500

If the Notes Payable is $10,000, the December 31, 2011 cash balance is:

Answer:

Cash = $30000

Explanation:

The accounting equation states that the sum of total assets is always equal to the sum of total liabilities plus total equity. We can state the equation as follows,

Total Assets = Total Liabilities + Total Equity

So,

(30000 + 31250 + 18750 + 40000 + Cash) = (2500 + 10000) + (125000 + 12500)

120000 + Cash = 12500 + 137500

Cash = 150000 - 120000

Cash = $30000
