To
determine what the depreciation of an asset using straight line method, the
formula to be used is:
(Initial
cost of machine – salvage value) divided by estimated useful life
So in
this problem:
Initial Cost
- $135000
Salvage
Value – $15000
Estimated
Useful Life – 5 years
Plug that
in the formula
Annual
depreciation = ($135000 - $15000) / 5
= $120000/
5
= $24,000
The first
year depreciation for the machine is $24000 because the company bought it in
the beginning of the year. (So there is no need to divide this by 12 months)
To record
this:
Depreciation
Expense $24000
<span> Accumulated Depreciation $24000</span>
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "D": All securities in an efficient market are zero net present value investments.
Explanation:
The Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) states that neither public or insider information cannot help in an attempt to beat the market because stocks already show all available information possible. Thus, neither using technical or fundamental analysis could be useful to predict future stock price movement.
<em>In other words, in a market under EMH all stocks are zero Net Present Value (present value inflows minus present value outflows) investment vehicles.</em>
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "C": Positive confirmations.
Explanation:
Positive confirmations are audit procedures by which ambiguous information is clarified. It also implies the confirmation of the accuracy of the data provided in the company's books and Financial Statements. By doing so, liabilities, bank accounts, accounts receivables and payables amounts are verified.
Answer:
1.4484 %
Explanation:
The formula for Yield to Maturity =
[C + (FP - MP) /n]/FP + MP/2
Where
C = Coupon rate = 8% = 0.08
MP = Market value or price = $865
FP = Face or Par value = $1000
n = number of years = 10
Yield to Maturity =[ 0.08 +(1000 - 865) /10]/ 1000 + 865/2
Yield to Maturity = 1.4484 %
