Answer:

The insurance company will pay $192 which is present value of the asset

Explanation:

Depreciation is defined as the allocation of cost throughout the useful life of an asset. It refers to the rate at which an asset losses value over time.

The original value is used when calculating depreciation. Present market value is not used.

The value of the asset is spread out equally over its useful life.

In this instance

Depreciation per year= Asset value ÷ Years of useful life

Depreciation per year= 288 ÷ 6 = $48

The asset has been used for 2 years

Amount depreciated= 48 * 2= $96

Present value= Original value - Depreciation

Present value= 288 - 96= $192

Bonus Receivable (Dr.) $2,325

Service Revenue (Cr.) $95,325

b. Service Revenue (Dr.) $9,300

Bonus receivable (Cr.) $9,300

c. Accounts Receivable (Dr.) $93,775

Bonus Receivable (Dr.) $775

Service Revenue (Cr.) $93,000

d. Cash (Dr.) $29,000

Bonus Receivable (Cr.) $29,000

Explanation:

The contract between Burger Boy and Velocity is for eight months.

Expected value of the contract on 1st month is :

80% * [ $93,000 * 8 months + $31,000 ] + 20% [ $93,000 * 8 months - $31,000] = $762,600

The expected value per month is $762,600 / 8 months = $95,325 per month

Expected value of the contract 5th month with revised probability is :

60% * [ $93,000 * 8 months + $31,000 ] + 40% [ $93,000 * 8 months - $31,000] = $750,200

The expected value per month is $750,200 / 8 months = $93,775 per month.

Flo is considering three mutually exclusive options for the additional space he plans to add to the K-State Superstore. The cost
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

B) Children’s clothing only

Explanation:

cost of the expansion $148,000

three mutually exclusive projects:

  • NPV $221,000 for children’s clothing ≥ $148,000 (initial investment)
  • NPV $178,000 for exclusive gifts ≥ $148,000 initial investment
  • NPV $145,000 for decorator items ≤ $148,000 initial investment

The projects whose NPV is positive should be considered (this eliminates decorator items)

Since the projects are mutually exclusive, only one can be chosen. So the project with the highest NPV is the best project for the store ⇒ children's clothing

Sabv Corporation's break-even-point in sales is $840,000, and its variable expenses are 75% of sales. If the company lost $34,00
zhuklara [117]

Answer:sales must have amounted to:$704,000

Explanation:

Contribution ratio = Sales ratio - Variable cost ratio

= 100%- 75%

=25%

Sales to break even = Fixed expenses / Contribution margin ratio

Therefore,

 Fixed expenses = Sales to break even   x  Contribution margin ratio

=$840,000 x 25%

=$210,000

Contribution margin can also be calculated as

Fixed expenses- Operating loss

=$210,000 -$34,000

=$176,000

Sales = Contribution margin/ Contribution ratio

= $176,000/25% =$704,000
