ANSWER

$\frac{5( \sqrt{11} + \sqrt{3} )} {8}$

EXPLANATION

The given rational function is

$\frac{5}{ \sqrt{11} - \sqrt{3}}$

We need to rationalize the denominator by multiplying both the numerator and the denominator by the conjugate of

$\sqrt{11} - \sqrt{3}$

which is

$\sqrt{11} + \sqrt{3}$

When we rationalize we obtain:

$\frac{5( \sqrt{11} + \sqrt{3} )}{(\sqrt{11} - \sqrt{3} )( \sqrt{11} + \sqrt{3} )}$

The denominator is now a difference of two squares:

$(a - b)(a + b) = {a}^{2} - {b}^{2}$

We apply this property to get

$\frac{5( \sqrt{11} + \sqrt{3} )}{( \sqrt{11}) ^{2} - ( \sqrt{3}) ^{2} )}$

$\frac{5( \sqrt{11} + \sqrt{3} )}{11 - 3}$

This simplifies to

$\frac{5( \sqrt{11} + \sqrt{3} )} {8}$

$\frac{5 } {8}\sqrt{11} + \frac{5 } {8}\sqrt{3}$

Pryce Company owns equipment that cost $65,000 when purchased on January 1, 2012. It has been depreciated using the straight-lin

ki77a [65]

Monthly depreciation is calculated as follows:
65,000 (Cost) – 5,000 (Salvage Value) ÷ 60 (5 years X 12 months per year) = 1,000 in depreciation per month.

a) Accumulated depreciation from 1/1/12 to 1/1/15 is 36,000 (12 months for 2012, 2013, & 2014).
Assuming that sale was a Cash sale, the journal entry would look like this:
1/1/15
Cash (DR) 31,000
Accumulated Depreciation (DR) 36,000
Equipment (CR) 65,000
Gain on Sale of Equipment (CR) 2,000

b) Accumulated depreciation from 1/1/12 to 5/1/15 is 40,000 (12 months for 2012, 2013, 2014, & 4 months for 2015).
Assuming that sale was a Cash sale, the journal entry would look like this:
5/1/15
Cash (DR) 31,000
Accumulated Depreciation (DR) 40,000
Equipment (CR) 65,000
Gain on Sale of Equipment (CR) 6,000

c) Accumulated depreciation from 1/1/12 to 1/1/15 is 36,000 (12 months for 2012, 2013, & 2014).
Assuming that sale was a Cash sale, the journal entry would look like this:
1/1/15
Cash (DR) 11,000
Accumulated Depreciation (DR) 36,000
Loss on Sale of Equipment (DR) 18,000
Equipment (CR) 65,000

d) Accumulated depreciation from 1/1/12 to 10/1/15 is 45,000 (12 months for 2012, 2013, 2014, & 9 months for 2015).
Assuming that sale was a Cash sale, the journal entry would look like this:
10/1/15
Cash (DR) 11,000
Accumulated Depreciation (DR) 45,000
Loss on Sale of Equipment (DR) 9,000
Equipment (CR) 65,000
