Answer:

The company should recognize a loss on sale of plant asset of $100,00.

Explanation:

The cost = $375,000

Accumulated Depreciation = $150,000

Therefore, book value = $225,000

This book value is compared with the sales value of $125,000.

There is a difference of $100,000 ($225,000 - $125,000).

Since the book value is greater than the sales value, it means that the plant asset was sold at a loss.

The cost is the amount at which the plant asset was purchased.  The accumulated depreciation represents the cost that has been expensed so far.  The sales value is the amount at which the plant asset was sold.

The question is incomplete as the figures are missing. The complete question is,

Fosnight Enterprises prepared the following sales​ budget:

Month       Budgeted Sales

March         $6,000

April            $13,000

May             $11,000

June            $20,000

The expected gross profit rate is  20​% and the inventory at the end of February was  $7,000.  Desired inventory levels at the end of the month are  30​%  of the next ​month's cost of goods sold.  What are the total purchases budgeted for May?

Answer:

Purchases - May = $10960

Explanation:

To calculate the total value of purchases that are budgeted for May, we first need to calculate the cost of goods sold and the opening and closing inventory for May.

As the gross profit margin is 20%, the cost of goods sold will be 80% of sales.

Cost of goods sold for May = 0.8 * 11000 = $8800

Cost of goods sold for June = 0.8 * 20000 = $16000

Opening inventory - May = 8800 * 0.3  = $2640

Closing Inventory - May = 16000 * 0.3  = $4800

Purchases = Closing Inventory + Cost of Goods Sold for the month - Opening Inventory

Purchases - May = 4800 + 8800 - 2640

Purchases - May = $10960

1. Understanding opportunity costYou work as an assistant coach on the university basketball team and earn $15 per hour. One day
Gwar [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": $24.

Explanation:

Opportunity cost can be defined as the cost of the best next available option after taking another decision in regards to a situation. It is also the return that the chosen option provides compared to the return that could have provided the option that was forgone.

In this case, choosing to go to the local carnival will represent losing one hour of working as a coach assistant ($15). Besides, as there is a $9 admission fee to the carnival, you will need to spend that money. Thus, the total opportunity cost of going to the carnival instead of working is $24 (<em>$15+$9=$24</em>).
