Answer:

D.Gain, $5,000.

Explanation:

Truck Value =  $48,000

Annual depreciation =   ( $48,000 -   $8,000) / 8 = $40,000 / 8= $5,000

First year (2013) = $40,000 - $5,000 =  $35,000

Second year (2014) = $35,000 - $5,000 =  $30,000

Third year (2015)= $30,000 - $5,000 =  $25,000

Gain  = Sale Value - Truck Value (actual) = $30,000 - $25,000 = $5,000

Based on the following information, what would be recorded as purchases discount if the invoice is paid within the discount peri
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

$30

Explanation:

2/10 net 30 means the supplier extends 30 days credit to the purchaser. If the payment is made between 10 days and 30 days, no discount is allowed.

However if the payment is made within 10 days, 2% of net purchase price would be allowed as a discount by the supplier.

Now, Net Purchases = Total invoice price - freight - purchases returns

Net Purchases =  $2150 - $150 - $ 500

Net Purchases= $1500

Rate of discount = 2%

Purchases discount = 2% of 1500= $30 will be allowed if the payment is made within the discount period.

valkas [14]

Answer: The correct answer is False.

Explanation:

Business behavior will not determine the ethics of society. Businesses can't be responsible to change the moral and ethical behaviors of a single person or an entire world. Only a person can change their own behavior. A society in whole can only be changed by each person acting upon their own free will.

If a business is not ethical, then they need to change the way they work and do business and lead by example.

b. If the employer accepts Turner's counteroffer, Turner will recognize as gross income $55,000 per month [($480,000 + $180,000)/12].

= $660,000  ÷ 12 months

= $55,000
