Answer:

a.

Cash                                                        $21080 Dr

Accumulated Depreciation-Machine    $24080 Dr

                 Gain on Disposal                            $2160 Cr

                 Machine account                            $43000 Cr

b.

Cash                                                          $11080 Dr

Accumulated Depreciation-Machine      $24080 Dr

Loss on Disposal                                      $7840 Dr

                 Machine account                           $43000 Cr

Explanation:

The asset is being sold off by the company which will cause the business to write off the asset from the books and credit it. The accumulated depreciation is a contra asset account and it will be debited to close this account.

The carrying value of the asset = Cost - Accumulated Depreciation

Carrying value = 43000 - 24080 = $18920

If the sales proceeds is more than the carrying value there is a gain on disposal and vice versa.

a.

Gain/loss on disposal = 21080 - 18920 = $2160 gain

b.

Gain/loss on disposal = 11080 - 18920 = -$7840 loss

Blababa [14]
During the twentieth century, the real income of blue-collar workers in western societies increased significantly overall, although it has dropped in the past 20 years. 
White-collar workers went to work in factories instead of going to farming, and within a few years created the new industrial working class of America. Workingin factories was a difficult transition for rural people who were accustomed to living in communities where life was controlled by the hours of available daylight and the natural rhythm of the seasons.

Two mutually exclusive investment opportunities require an initial investment of $7 million. Investment A pays $1.5 million per
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:The cost of capital that will make both investments equal is 17.045%

Explanation:

Investment A

$1.5 million will be received in perpetuity we can there use perpetuity formula to Value investment A.

Value of Investment A = 1500 000/r

Investment B

$1.2 Million will be received in Investment B with a growth rate of 3% will then use Gordon's growth rate model to value investment B.

Value of investment B = (1200 000 x (1+0.03))/(r - 0.03)

Value of investment B = 1236000/(r - 0.03)

1500 000/r = 1236000/(r - 0.03)

1236000(r) = 1500000(r - 0.03)

(r - 0.03) = 1236000( r)/1500000

r - 0.03 = 0.824r

r - 0.824r = 0.03 = 0.176r = 0.03

r = 0.03/0.176 = 0.170454545

R = 17.045%

The cost of capital that will make both investments to be equal is 17.045%
