Answer:

Straight-line method

Depreciation expense: $19,800

Book value : $153,600

b. Double-declining-balance method. 

Depreciation expense: $43,350

Book value : $130,050

c. Units-of-production method

Depreciation expense: $23,760

Book value : $149,640

Explanation:

Straight line depreciation expense = (cost of asset - residual value) / useful life

($173,400 - $15,000) / 8 = $19,800

The straight line depreciation method allocates the same deprecation expense for each year of the useful life of the asset.

So, deprecation expense in 2009 would be

$19,800.

Book value = Cost of asset - deprecation expense

$173,400 - $19,800 = $153,600

Depreciation expense using the Double declining method = depreciation factor × cost of asset

Deprecation factor = 2 x (1/useful life) = 2 x (1/8) = 0.25

0.25 x $173,400 = $43,350

Book value = $173,400 - $43,350 = $130,050

Deprecation expense using the unit of production method = deprecation factor × (cost of asset - Salvage value)

Depreciation factor = Total pages printed in 2009 / total pages that can be printed by the machine

675,000 /4,500,000 = 0.15

0.15 x ($173,400 - $15,000) = $23,760

Book value at the end of 2009 = $173,400 - $23,760 = $149,640

I hope my answer helps you

Give examples of needs, wants, and demands that fedex customers demonstrate, differentiating these three concepts.
weeeeeb [17]

The needs are also what we call to be the requirements of the human beings that are essential and whose. These include, for the case of FedEx, the need for self-expression and also the need for the customer to be served in a means that makes him or her to fit in to a certain social class.

 

Wants are what we call to be temporary and hence changes regularly and are only directed by our surrounding towards reaching certain needs. For the case of FedEx, wants include customer’s want to have immediately needed materials and goods/products that are needed on very short notices.

 

<span>Demands happen when a customer is capable to sacrifice some money so as to be content with a need or want. These include for example the demand to be provided with export and import services, tracking packages etc.</span>

Which of the following has inelastic demand: O Movie tickets Ice cream O Televisions Bread​
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

Bread​

Explanation:

Inelastic demand tends to remain relatively stable despite price changes. Inelastic demand is a stable demand, or demand that is not stretching. Foodstuffs and essential goods tend to have constant demand regardless of changes in prices. People have to consume these goods no matter their costs.

Bread is foodstuff. People must eat to survive. The demand for bread and other foods stuff will remain relatively constant despite changes in prices.

The classical view of the economy holds that transitions to full employment are relatively quick.1. Under what condition(s) can
Effectus [21]

Answer:

1. Under what condition(s) can an economy make a relatively quick and easy transition to full-employment level of output?

Classical economics are great theoretically, but actual evidence from real life is always against them. The problem with wages and unemployment is that wages are sticky, no one likes a wage cut and employees will always fight against them. That results in drastic changes in the level of unemployment, since it is easier to fire employees than lower their salaries.

When a demand shock occurs, and the aggregate demand curve shifts to the right, the aggregate supply curve will also shift. At this point, suppliers will need to hire more employees and fast since they cannot keep up with the demand. The problem is that in real life, demand shocks are sudden only in theory, no one will wake up tomorrow having twice the money and willing to spend it all immediately.

Classical economics work on the long run, but the problem is that the long run is not a definite point in time. We might actually never live to see the long run occur.

2. What condition(s) would keep an economy from moving back to full employment quickly and easily?

Shifts in the aggregate demand curve never occur from one day to another, they are gradual and take time. In real life, unless you suddenly win the lottery, the amount of goods that you purchase is generally stable. It will increase or decrease over time but not abruptly. Since sudden demand shocks do not occur in real life, neither do sudden shifts in the employment level. That is why the government issues monthly unemployment data, and you analyze the trends over several months or even years.

Emily Corporation sells two products: hurricane lamps and flashlights. Hurricane lamps account for 70 percent of the units sold,
zmey [24]

Answer:

weighted-average contribution margin= $4.7

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Hurricane lamps account for 70 percent of the units sold, while the flashlights account for the remaining 30 percent of unit sales. The unit sales price of the lamps is $9.00, and the unit variable cost is $4.00. The unit sales price of the flashlights is $7.00, and the unit variable cost is $3.00.

<u>To calculate the weighted-average contribution margin, we need to calculate first the weighted-average selling price and weighted average variable cost for each product.</u>

weighted average selling price= (selling price* weighted sales participation)

weighted average selling price= (0.7*9 + 0.3*7)= $8.4

weighted average variable cost= (variable cost* weighted sales participation)

weighted average variable cost= (0.7*4 + 0.3*3)= 3.7

<u>Now, we can calculate the weighted average contribution margin:</u>

weighted-average contribution margin= 8.4 - 3.7= $4.7

A "Name That Tune" contest has a grand prize of $500,000. However, the contest stipulates that the winner will receive just $200
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is (C) $401,302

Explanation:

To get how much the contest winner actually won, we have to calculate the amount receive at the end of each year discounted at this moment. Then,  we added  all the payments.  

For example, the first payment in  $200,000 at this moment,  so we add  $200,000.  

At the end of the first year we receive $30,000, and the rate of discount is 8%

The formula of discount is P=A/ (1+r)ⁿ

A=Final amount  

P= Principal

r= interest rate

n= time

Year 1 = A/ (1+r)ⁿ =$30,000/1,08¹= 27777,77

Year 2 =$30,000/1,08²= 25720,16

Year 3=23814,96

Year 4=22050,89

Year 5=20417,49

Year 6=18905,08

Year 7=17504,71

Year 8=16208,06

Year 9=15007,46

Year 10=13895,80

 

Total  401302,44
