GRECO RESORT TRIAL BALANCE AUGUST 31, 2014

Buildings 120,000 Equipment 16,000

Explanation:

First, calcualte the depreciable amount:

cost less salvage value:

120,000 - 10% = 120,000 * (1 - 0.1) = 108,000

Now we multiply this by the depreciation rate which represent 1/useful life

108,000 x 4% = 108,000 x 0.04 = 4,320

We do the same with the equipment

16,000* (1 - 0.1) = 14,800 amount subject to depreciation

14,800 * 10% = 14,800 x 0.1 = 1,480

he adjusting entry will debit the depreciation expense and increase the accumulated depreciation of eahc asset

Although Costco pays its employees substantially more than its closest competitor, Sam’s Club, it has similar financial returns
yuradex [85]

Although Costco pays its employees substantially more than its closest competitor, Sam’s Club, it has similar financial returns on its labor costs due to lower turnover and higher levels of productivity

Option A

<u>Explanation: </u>

While Costco costs its workers slightly more than its closest competitor, Sam's Club, Costco pays higher prices in order to recruit more professionals and to provide better customer service due to lower turnover and a similar financial return.

Direct costs involve wages for staff making a product and employees on the production line, while indirect costs apply to assistance, such as employees repairing factory equipment.

When labor costs are wrongly distributed or measured, the price of goods or services may be changed from their actual costs and profits from losses.

Northern Organic Farms is considering a project which will produce annual sales of $975,000 and increase cash expenses by $848,0
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

B) $114,000

Explanation:

To calculate the operating cash flows using the top down approach we can use the following equation:

operating cash flow = increase in total sales - increase in total expenses - increase in taxes paid

operating cash flow = $975,000 - $848,000 - ($154,000 - $141,000) = $975,000 - $848,000 - $13,000 = $114,000

I didn't include depreciation since it is normally included to calculate the increase in taxes but taxes were already given.

If gdp is $20 trillon, how many years will it take for gdp to increase to $40 trillion if annual growth is 10 percent?
ElenaW [278]

It will take 7 years.

Given GDP is $20 trillion and increased GDP is $40 trillion.

Gross domestic product (GDP) is the standard measure of  value added generated by the country's production of goods and services over a certain time period. GDP is the total monetary or market worth of all completed products and services produced within a country's boundaries in a certain time period.

As such, it also accounts for the money generated by such output, as well as the overall amount spent on final products and services (less imports).

Time take to reach $40 trillion is to be found.

Formula to find the time taken to reach $40 trillion  is given below:

F = P *(1+i) ^t

Here,

F = 40,

P = 20,

I = 10%

Now put the values in the formula given above.

F = 0.1040 = 20 × (1+0.10) ^t(1.10)^t

  = 40 / 20

  = 2

Taking log both sides t = log 2 / log 1.10  

                                    = 7.27 yrs or 7 yrs

Therefore, it will take 7 years.
