Answer and explanation:

Free float refers to the time an activity can be delayed in a program without affecting the work to be delivered on the due date, either affecting the beginning of any subsequent activity. The free float allows extending activities until the following step starts which allows the organization to verify the current step they are in was properly completed.

Besides, in scheduling and managing a project, free-floating can be used as a tool to find out if the program has been completed fulfilling the expectations of the program and if the organization is ready and has all the elements necessary to move forward.

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

c) $20,000.

Explanation:

The computation of the estimated ending inventory is shown below:

We know that

Cost of goods sold = Beginning inventory + purchase made - ending inventory

And, the

Sales - gross profit = Cost of goods sold

$100,000 - $100,000 × 30% = Cost of goods sold

So, cost of goods sold would be

= $100,000 - $30,000

= $70,000

Now the ending inventory would be

$70,000 = $18,000 + $72,000 - ending inventory

$70,000 = $90,000 - ending inventory

So, the ending inventory would be

= $90,000 - $70,000

= $20,000

Leker exchanged real property that was used exclusively for business and had an adjusted tax basis of $20,000 for new real prope

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

$17,000

Explanation:

Leker's Old Property Adjusted Tax Basis = $20,000

To calculate the new basis, subtract the $3000 recieved in cash from the new property.

New Tax Basis; $20,000-$3,000= $17,000

The transaction of Leker to exchange a real property for another led to a loss: Meaning a Property of $20,000 was exchanged for a property of $10,000+ $3,000 (cash)= $13,000

The Loss on the transaction= $20,000- $13,000= $7,000

Due to the loss no gain is recognized and the $3000 will reduce the basis for his new asset.

Ugo [173]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchase price= $66,000

Salvage value= $5,700

Useful life= 6

First, we need to calculate the annual depreciation using the following formula:

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation= (66,000 - 5,700) / 6= 10,050

2017:

Annual depreciation= (10,050/12)*3= $2,512.5

2018:

Annual depreciation= $10,050

The Alpha Beta Corporation disposes a capital asset with an original cost of $170,000 and accumulated depreciation of $109,000

Bingel [31]

Answer:

Option D) $54.400

Explanation:

When a company disposes a capital asset, the cost of the asset it's the remanent value, that is the difference between the original cost less the accumulated depreciation, in this case $170.000 minus $109.000, remanent value is $61.000.

This value it's the cost of sale and the price it's $50.000 , the result of this transaction it's a loss of ($11.000) so the after-tax cash inflow it's ($4.400).

The total Cash Inflow it's the sum of $50.000 (gained from the sale) and the save on taxes for $4.400, because of the loss I get a payback on taxes, the total is $54.400.
