Flanders Company purchased an asset on January 1, 2021 for $60,000. The asset has an estimated salvage value of $3,000. Its esti

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

$14,250

Explanation:

Annual depreciation = (Cost - Salvage value) / Useful Life

Annual depreciation = ($60,000 - $3,000) / 8

Annual depreciation = $57,000 / 8

Annual depreciation = $7,125

Accumulated dep. at December 31, 2022 = $7,125 * 2

Accumulated dep. at December 31, 2022 = $14,250

So, the balance in accumulated depreciation using the straight-line method at December 31, 2022 is $14,250.

You are the manager of a firm that produces products X and Y at zero cost. You know that different types of consumers value your

arlik [135]

Answer and Explanation:

a)

If you charge $40 for X then everyone will buy as everyone is willing to pay atleast $40. this means all three groups buy that is 3*1000 buyers.So profit from X = 3000*40= $120,000

And since everyone is willing to willing to pay atleast $60 for Y again all three groups will buy so profit from Y =3000*60=$180,000

profits=$300,000

b)

If you charge $90 and $160 for X and Y respectively you will have only 1000 buyers for each product as others are unwilling to pay this much.

So profits = 1000*90 + 1000*160=$250,000

c)

for a bundle of X and Y buyers are willing to pay a total of $150, $210 and $200 across the three categories.

So everyone will buy a bundle of 1 X and 1 Y.

profits = 150*3000= $450,000

d)

If you charge $210 only the second will buy as they are willing to pay that much so profits =1000*210=$210,000

Also by selling X at $90 group 1 will buy X; profits=1000*90=$90,000

and by selling Y at $160 group 3 will buy Y; profits=1000*160=$160,000

total profits =$460,000

Consider the closed (no exports or imports) Latverian economy in which the consumption function is C = 300 + 0.75DI (where DI =

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

0.66

Explanation:

Marginal propensity to consume is the proportion of disposable income that is spent on consumption

Marginal propensity to consume = change in consumption / change in income = C / Y

Gross domestic product (Y) is the sum of all final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year.

In a closed economy, GDP = Consumption + Investment spending + Government Spending

Y = 300 + 0.75(Y - $1,200) + $900 + $1,300

Y = 300 + 0.75Y - $900 + $900 + $1,300

Collect like terms

Y - 0.75Y = $1600

0.25Y = $1600

Y = $6400

Substitute for Y in the consumption function : 300 + 0.75(Y - $1,200)

300 + 0.75($6400 - $1,200)

300 + 0.75($5,200) = $4,200

C = $4200

Marginal propensity to consume = $4,200 / $6400 = 0.66
