Ivanhoe Company has a factory machine with a book value of $88,100 and a remaining useful life of 7 years. It can be sold for $3

3,800. A new machine is available at a cost of $510,700. This machine will have a 7-year useful life with no salvage value. The new machine will lower annual variable manufacturing costs from $576,600 to $470,500. Prepare an analysis showing whether the old machine should be retained or replaced. (In the first two columns, enter costs and expenses as positive amounts, and any amounts received as negative amounts. In the third column, enter net income increases as positive amounts and decreases as negative amounts. Enter negative amounts using either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45).)

Answer:

Total costs are reduced with the new machine.

Explanation:

scenario 1: keep using old machine

machine cost = $88,100

variable expenses = $576,600 x 7 = $4,036,200

total expenses for 7 years = $4,124,300

scenario 2: purchase new machine

machine cost = $510,700 - $33,800 = $476,900

variable expenses = $470,500 x 7 = $3,293,500

total expenses for 7 years = $3,770,400

difference in total expenses = $3,770,400 - $4,124,300 = $353,900 favorable for new machine

Since the total costs are lower when you purchase the new machine, then  you should go ahead and do it. Generally when you carry on a project that needs a significant investment like this new machine, you should use an interest rate to calculate present value, but you could also lease the machine instead of purchasing it (since it has no residual value).

On-Time Delivery Company acquired an adjacent lot to construct a new warehouse, paying $27,000 and giving a short-term note for
crimeas [40]

Answer:

$306,835

Explanation:

Data provided

Legal fees paid = $2,435

Delinquent taxes = $15,100

Fees paid to remove old building = $19,400

Material salvage sold = $4,100

The computation of the cost of the land to be reported on the balance sheet is below:-

Amount paid to acquire adjacent lot = $27,000 + $247,000

= $274,000

Total cost of land = Amount paid to acquire adjacent lot + Legal fees paid + Fees paid to remove old building - Material salvage sold

= $274,000 + $2,435 + $15,100  + $19,400  - $4,100

= $306,835

the xyz block company purchased a new office computer and other depreciable computer hardware for $12,000. during the third year
Serhud [2]

Present worth is $7,944 ( Considering some assumptions )

Depreciation is the reduction in the value of asset due to wear and tear. Depreciation is charged only on fixed asset on a straight line or on a fixed rate per year.

Computer and other hardware of $12,000 to be depreciated over 5 years with no salvage value

<u>Depreciation </u><u>per year = ( Cost of Asset - Salvage value ) / Useful life </u>

= ($12,000 - $0) / 5 = $12,000/5 = $2,400 per year

It is assumed that the assets are donated at the end of third year and depreciation of that year is fully charged.

Depreciation for 3 years = $2,400 x 3 = $7,200

Now As all these event happened in the past and it is assumed that we are standing at the end of year 3, the present worth of the all these depreciation is actually the future value of these deduction because it was made earlier.

Present worth of depreciation is as follows

Present Worth = [$2,400 x (1+0.1)^2 ] + [$2,400 x (1+0.1)^1 ] + [$2,400 x (1+0.1)^0 ] = $2,904 + $2,640 + $2,400 = $7,944

Third deduction was made at the date when worth is being calculated.

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

<u>February.</u>

Desired ending inventory = 10% of March Cost of goods(COGS):

= 10% * 35,000

= $3,500

Inventory needed = COGS + ending inventory

= 32,000 + 3,500

= $35,500

Beginning inventory = January ending inventory = $3,200

Required Purchases = Inventory needed - Beginning inventory

= 35,500 - 3,200

= $32,300

<u>March</u>

Desired ending inventory = 10% of April COGS:

= 10% * 40,000

= $4,000

Inventory needed:

= 35,000 + 4,000

= $39,000

Beginning inventory = February ending inventory = $3,500

Required purchases:

= 39,000 - 3,500

= $35,500
