Answer:

B. An increase in the price of currency

Explanation:

In the case of imports, if the price of foreign currency goes up, more local currency would be needed to purchase foreign currency.

This would lead to the price of imports going up, and this would be passed to the consumer. Prices rise (inflation) as a result of the rise in cost (foreign currency)

Determine the amount of depletion expense that would be recognized on the Year 1 income statement for each of the two reserves,

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Kindly check the explanation section.

Explanation:

STEP ONE: calculate or Determine the depletion expense per unit. .

For oil reserves, the depletion expense = 1376000 - 0/ 257000 - 12000 = $5.76.

For timber, the depletion expense = 2080000 - 112000/ 1770000 = $1.11.

For silver mine, the depletion expense = 1840000 - 0/ 131000 = $14.05.

For Gold mine, the depletion expense = 3070000 - 0/63000 = $48.73.

STEP TWO : Determine or calculate the total depletion expense.

For the year 2018, the total depletion expense for; (a). silver mine= 14.05 × 14800 = $ 207,940.

(b). Timber = 1.11 × 51000 = $566100.

For 2019, the the total depletion expense for; (a). silver mine= 14.05 × 29000 = 407,450

(b). Timber = 1.11 × 370,000 = 410,700.

(c). Gold mine = 48.73 × 4200 = 204,666.

(d). Oil reserve = 5.76 × 83,000 = 478,080.

STEP THREE:

SILVER MINE: 1840000

- Accumulated depletion = ($ 407,450 + $ 207,940) = 615,390.

(1). Thus, 1840000 - 615,390 = 1,224,610.

GOLD MINE = 3070000.

Accumulated depletion = 204,666.

(2). Therefore, we have 3070000 - 204666 = 2,865,334.

TIMBER: 2080000.

Accumulated depletion = ( $566100 + 410,700) = 976,800.

Residual value of land = #112000.

(3). Therefore, (2080000 - 976,800) - 112,000 = 991,200.

OIL RESERVES: 1376000.

Accumulated depletion= 478,080.

(4). Therefore, 1376000 - 478,080 = 897,920.

Hence, we have the total natural resources = (1) + (2). + (3). + (4). =

1,224,610 + 2,865,334 + 991,200 + 897,920 = $ 5,979,064.

Therefore, 5,979,064 - 112,000 = $ 5,867,064.

The Ramapo Company produces two products, Blinks and Dinks. They are manufactured in two departments, Fabrication and Assembly.

Bond [772]

Answer:

$60 per unit

Explanation:

Total overheads:

= Overheads of fabrication department + Overheads of assembly department

= $90,500 + $109,700

= $200,200

Total labor hours:

= Blinks + Dinks

= (1,013 × 4) + (1,859 × 5)

= 4,052 + 9,295

= 13,347

Overhead rate per hour = Total overheads ÷ Total labor hours

= $200,200 ÷ 13,347

= $15 per hour

Total overhead cost for blinks:

= Total hours for blinks × rate per hour

= 4,052 × $15 per hour

= $60,780

Overhead cost per unit for Blinks:

= Total overhead cost for blinks ÷ Total units

= $60,780 ÷ 1,013

= $60 per unit

Define the term collateral and include two examples

Scorpion4ik [409]

Collateral is an asset or piece of property that a borrower offers to a lender as security for a loan. ... An example of unsecured lending is a business credit card. Borrowers do not offer collateral when using a credit card. Since the loan is unsecured, credit cards typically carry higher interest rates.
