Answer:
$322,000
Explanation:
For computing the book value at the beginning of the third year first we have to determine the depreciation expense using the straight-line method which is shown below:
= (Original cost of equipment - expected salvage value) ÷ (estimated life)
= ($490,000 - $70,000) ÷ (5 years)
= ($20,000) ÷ (5 years)
= $84,000
In this method, the depreciation is same for all the remaining useful life
For two years, the accumulated depreciation is
= $84,000 × 2
= $168,000
So, the book value is
= $490,000 - $168,000
= $322,000
This is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options
Answer:
Nico invest $2500 at 9% interest rate and $800 at 4% interest rate.
Explanation:
He invests some money at 9%, and $1700 less than that amount at 4 %.
Let Nico invest $x at 9%.
It means he invest $( x-1700) at 4%.
The investments produced a total of $257 interest in 1 yr.




Add 68 on both sides.


Divide both sides by 0.13.

Nico invest $2500 at 9% interest rate.

Nico invest $800 at 4% interest rate.
Therefore Nico invest $2500 at 9% interest rate and $800 at 4% interest rate.
Answer:
New task purchase
Explanation:
New task purchase is the one purchase decision that has not been done previously by the business as they did not have the need for a new product/task. The new purchase is different from re-purchase as a new purchase will require a lot of evaluation from the buyer both for the product they intend to purchase and the vendor that they want to purchase from. New task purchase is usually done by a company when a need is recognized within the organization. This need may come internally from the firm or may have come from externally (e.g. clients).
After the need is recognized the company tries to evaluate several products that can satisfy this need and also looks for consultants/vendors that can provide solutions for the need. During this process a company will look at several vendors and evaluate them for their capabilities to serve the product/service. After the initial qualification check the company asks all the eligible suppliers/vendors to submit their bids (also called the tendering process).
After evaluation of the bids the firm may decide to purchase the product/service from any of the vendor which suits its needs best. Many companies usually go for the lowest price bids when there is no difference in the product of different supplier and the purchase decision is made.
After the purchase decision the companies usually re-evaluate their purchases and then decide about the future purchases of similar product.
