Answer:

b Gain of $5,000

Explanation:

Book value of equipment on the date of sale = Cost of the equipment - Accumulated depreciation

= $310,000 - $260,000 = $50,000

Gain on sale of equipment

= Proceeds from sale - Book value of equipment on the date of sale

= $55,000 - $50,000

= $5,000

Therefore, The amount of the gain or loss on this transaction is $5,000.

You currently have $5,400. First United Bank will pay you an annual interest rate of 8.9, while Second National Bank will pay yo
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Second National  Bank

Present value (PV) = $5,400

Future value (FV) = $13,900

Interest rate (r) = 10% = 0.10

FV = PV(1 + r)n

$13,900 = $5,400(1 + 0.10)n    

<u>$13,900</u> = (1.10)n

$5,400            

2.574074074 = (1.10)n

Log 2.574074074 = n  log 1.10

<u>Log 2.574074074</u> = n  

Log 1.10                  

n =  9.9 years      

None of the answers is correct                                                                                                                                                          

Explanation:

In this case, we will apply the formula of future value of a lump sum. The present value, interest rate and future value were provided with  the exception of number of years. Thus, the number of years becomes the subject of the formula. The future value equals present value, multiplied                     by 1 plus interest rate, raised to power number of years.
