Answer:
Book value of the asset = $484,000
Explanation:
Given:
Equipment cost = $800,000
Residual value = $10,000
Computation:
Depreciation = (Equipment cost - Residual value) / Life
Depreciation = ($800,000 - $ 10,000) / 5
Depreciation = $ 158,000 per year
Depreciation for 2 year =$ 158,000 x 2
Depreciation for 2 year = $316,000
Book value of the asset = Equipment cost - Depreciation for 2 year
Book value of the asset = $800,000 - $316,000
Book value of the asset = $484,000
Answer:
Georgeland has an absolute but not a comparative advantage in producing clothing.
Explanation:
Absolute advantage is defined as the ability of a firm to produce higher amounts of a product as a result of use of the same resources with other competitors. It is usually bad a result of more efficient production process.
Comparative advantage is the ability of a firm to produce goods at a lower opportunity cost. Therefore they are able to sell at lower price compared to competitors.
Georgeland can produce 18 units of clothe per year while Alland can produce 16 units per year, so Georgeland has absolute advantage.
In producing clothes Georgeland has opportunity cost of 36 units of food which is higher than that of Alland which is 32 units of food. So Georgeland does not have comparative advantage in producing clothes.
Answer:
b. Call for $1,500
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
We can calculate the amount of margin call by using following formula:-
Loss of today = future contracts based total bushels × total contract × (settlement cost per bushels - future contract price per bushels)
= 5,000 cents × 6 × (390 cents - 385 cents)
= 5,000 cents × 6 × 5 cents
= 150,000 cents
And we know that
100 cents = 1 dollar
so,
150,000 cents ÷ 100 =$1,500
Initial margin $878 per future contract and maintenance margin $650 per contract, Margins of both are less than loss .So we have to pay $1,500 in initial margin.
According to the analysis, we will receive $1,500 margin call.
Therefore option (B) call for $1,500 is correct.
Answer:
Cedrick's potential maximum liability = $50
Explanation:
Given:
$250 = a Blueminusray player
$600 = new set of tires
$200 = Cash withdrawal
$40 = interest charges
Find:
Cedrick's potential maximum liability
Computation:
Cedrick's potential maximum liability = Blueminusray player - Cash withdrawal
Cedrick's potential maximum liability = $250 - $200
Cedrick's potential maximum liability = $50
