Answer:

Consider the following calculation and analysis

Explanation:

We will analyse from cost perspective, the alternative with lower cost should be selected.

Total no. of doctor visit = 12 monthly visit + 3 times special visit = 15

Cost = 50 * 15 = $750

Under Traditional health checkup plan

Cost of plan = $ 250 + (20% of doctor visiting charges) = 250 + 20% of 750 = $400

Under HMO

Premium = 20 * 12 months = $240

Co payment = 10 * 15 = 150

Total = $ 390

There is a saving of $10 in HMO, so she should opt for this option. Moreover, the benefit of HMO would be the payments are monthly in small installments ,rather than a big outflow as in the case of traditonal plan.

Deluxe Ezra Company purchases equipment on January 1, Year 1, at a cost of $469,000. The asset is expected to have a service lif
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

to calculate depreciation using the sum-of-the-years'-digits method:

n(n+1) divided by 2 = [12(13)] / 2 = 78

depreciable value = cost - salvage value = $469,000 - $40,000 = $429,000

  1. depreciation year 1 = 12/78 x $429,000 = $66,000
  2. depreciation year 2 = 11/78 x $429,000 = $60,500
  3. depreciation year 3 = 10/78 x $429,000 = $55,000

the formula used to calculate depreciation using the double-declining-balance method is:

2 x cost of the asset x depreciation rate

  1. depreciation year 1 = 2 x $469,000 x 1/12 = $78,167
  2. depreciation year 2 = 2 x ($469,000 - $78,167) x 1/12 = $65,139
  3. depreciation year 3 = 2 x ($390,833 - $65,139) x 1/12 = $54,282

pochemuha

Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

An increase in supply decreases the equilibrium price as the supply curve shifts rightward and intersects the demand curve at a lower point. This decline in the equilibrium price causes the quantity demanded to increase. The demand for the product remains the same.

The statement given in the question is false. A change in demand is caused by a change in other factors while the price of the product remains the same. The change in price affects the quantity demanded.
