Answer:
$3,160
Explanation:
Depreciation is the systematic allocation of the cost of an asset to the income statement over the estimated useful life of that asset.
It is determined as the depreciable value of the asset over the estimated useful life of the asset where the depreciable value is the difference between the cost and salvage value of the asset
.
Given that Williams Company purchased a machine costing $28,300 and is depreciating it over a 10-year estimated useful life with a residual value of $3,300,
Annual depreciation
= ($28,300 - $3,300)/10
= $2,500
At the beginning of the eighth year, a major overhaul on it was completed at a cost of $8,300,
Net book value at the beginning of the eighth year (before overhauling)
= $28,300 - 7($2,500)
= $10,800
Capitalizing the overhaul cost,
Net book value at the beginning of the eighth year (after overhauling)
= $10,800 + $8,300
= $19,100
Given that the total estimated useful life was changed to 12 years with the residual value unchanged,
Depreciation for the eighth year
= ($19,100 - $3,300)/5
= $15,800/5
= $3,160

B. The costs that are incurred during the production of a good or service are usually divided into three categories, which are direct material, direct labour and overhead costs.
Direct materials refer to those materials used in the production process which can be traced to a particular unit or department. A good example of a direct material is the raw materials used in the production unit for the production of a particular product.
Direct labour refers to the salaries and wages of those employees that are directly involved in the production process or in carrying out a particular operation. An example of a direct labour for the production of chocolates is the salary of those workers in the production unit.
Overhead cost refers to all other costs that are incurred during the process of production.These costs can not be traced to a specific department per say, but it cover the whole business unit. Overhead cost is of two types: administrative and manufacturing overheads. Examples of overhead costs are rent, utilities, insurance, depreciation, etc.
Answer:
Multinational enterprises (MNEs)
Relationship Change as the MNE moves from Globalization 2.0 to Globalization 3.0 operations:
This move means that Indian and Chinese companies would be competing with my local small firm. The MNE may be looking for cheaper prices for my company's products and services, which the Indian and Chinese companies would more efficiently supply it. My firm may be on the precipice of liquidating if this MNE is our major customer. My firm must move fast to become more competitive by differentiating our products and services with better quality and perhaps reduced production costs, to enable it compete more favorably with the Indian and Chinese competitors. Otherwise, we may regard the relationship as nearing its end and prepare for other opportunities with other companies.
Explanation:
Globalization reduces national boundaries by integrating national economies into a globalized economy, thus enabling companies to compete globally for financial resources, goods, and services. When Globalization 1.0 happened, countries were globalized and the world became a global village. When Globalization 2.0 from which the G7 profited largely, companies were globalized. With the current Globalization 3.0, individuals are being globalized, and the highest beneficiaries are Indian and Chinese nationals who appear better prepared to take on the world, garner most of the important resources to themselves, and call the shots from the boardrooms. An example is Microsoft's current CEO, Satya Nadella, who is an Indian-American.
Answer:
$65,000
Explanation:
Corporate liquidations of property generally are treated as a sale or exchange. Gain or loss generally is recognized by the corporation on a liquidating sale of its assets. Gain or loss generally is recognized also on a liquidating distribution of assets as if the corporation sold the assets to the distributee at fair market value.
In certain cases in which the distributee is a corporation in control of the distributing corporation, the distribution may not be taxable. For more information, see IRC Section 332 and the related regulations.
As a result, Alvo has a basis in the received property of $65,000 because the land was not sold and Alvo did not receive $200,000. Alvo no longer owns stock in Borasco, but has the land.
Answer:
$498.94
Explanation:
1 year interest rate = 5%
11 year interest rate = 7%
10 year spot interest rate at end of 1 year = [{(1+0.07)^11 / (1+0.05)}^(0.1) - 1]
10 year spot interest rate at end of 1 year = [(2.104852/1.05)^0.1] - 1
10 year spot interest rate at end of 1 year = 1.07202083615 - 1
10 year spot interest rate at end of 1 year = 0.072021
10 year spot interest rate at end of 1 year = 7.202%
Face value = $1,000
Forward Price of contract = $1000/(1+0.0720)^10
Forward Price of contract = $1000/2.00423136
Forward Price of contract = 498.944392915
Forward Price of contract = $498.94
