Answer:
If discount rate is 11.7% Project B should be accepted.
If discount rate is 13.5% both projects should be rejected
Explanation:
If the Net present value of Project A is higher than that of project B, we will accept project A and vice versa.
<u>Under 11.7% Discount Rate</u>
Net Present Value-Project A = -82000 + 34000 / 1.117 + 34000 / 1.117² + 34000 / 1.117³ = $85.099
Net Present Value-Project B = -82000 + 115000 / 1.117³ = $516.029
Project B should be accepted as it has a higher NPV.
<u />
<u>Under 13.5% Discount Rate</u>
Net present Value-Project A = -82000 + 34000 / 1.135 + 34000 / 1.135² + 34000 / 1.135³ = - $2397.49
Net Present Value-Project B = -82000 + 115000 / 1.135³ = - $3347.91
Both projects should be rejected as both have negative NPVs
Answer:
$35,660
Explanation:
the depreciable value of the vehicle = $47,550 - $4,500 = $43,050
depreciation expense per mile driven = $43,050 / 105,000 miles = $0.41
depreciation expense 2019 = $0.41 x 10,500 = $4,305
depreciation expense 2020 = $0.41 x 18,500 = $7,585
accumulated depreciation = $11,890
book value = $47,550 - $11,890 = $35,660
Answer:
The balance in the accumulated depreciation account at the end of the second year is $146,000.
Explanation:
Straight line method charges a <u>fixed depreciation charge</u> on the asset during its period of use.
Depreciation Expense (Straight line) = Cost - Residual Amount ÷ Estimated Useful life
= $778,000 - $48,000 ÷ 10
= $73,000
Therefore, for each year, a depreciation expense of $73,000 is charged to profit an loss.
Accumulated Depreciation Calculation :
Depreciation Expense : Year 1 $73,000
Depreciation Expense : Year 2 $73,000
Total Expense $146,000
The government can control tariffs and can limit how much can be imported into the usa.
The government can provide subsidies to certain producers, typically farmers.
The government can put a ceiling and a floor on prices as they wish. They can control the lowest and highest price a commodity can sell for.
The government can own public works such as a water company if they feel they can provide the service for a lower cost than the local competitors.
The government can decide which companies are monopolies and which companies are violating federal policies regarding trade. The government has the power to break up monopolies.
Each of these has advantages and disadvantages. For example, for farmers, when prices on their crops are too low, the government "gives" them money for their crops so they can stay in business.
A monopoly business controls the price and supply. If the monopoly is broken up, then competitors can enter the field- this can help drive down prices.
If the government can provide utility services for cheaper, that is good.
Answer: option C
Explanation: THIS CAN BE REPRESENTED AS FOLLOWS :-
If we eliminate the product there would be no sales, no variable expenses and therefore, no contribution.
sales = nil
-variable expenses= <u>nil</u>
contribution = nil
- fixed expenses = <u>56,000</u>
NET LOSS = <u> (56000)</u>
.
NOTE :-
Fixed expense = (140,000)*(40%)= 56,000
.
.
Thus increase in loss would be 56000- 50,000=6000
