Answer:

$2960 yearly savings

Explanation:

From the values given and from mathematical manipulation, he or she needs a contribution of at least $2900 every year in order to achieve his goal of $50,000.

                     EXPLANATION

  • If the child is 5yr old now, in 13years time, she will be 18yr old.
  • $2950 target yearly

  • for the next 13years, it would have amount to $38350

  • remember the bank will give an annual interest rate of 2%
  • so for 13years, that's 26% = 0.26

  • In the 13th year, he would have saved $38350, add the 26% interest for the duration of 13years = 26% x $38350 + $38350 = $48321

  • His savings will fall between $2950 - $2960 yearly.

A machine that cost $225,000 has an estimated residual value of $15,000 and an estimated useful life of 15,000 machine hours. Th
algol [13]

Answer:

$57,000

Explanation:

<u><em>Step 1 : Depreciation Rate</em></u>

Depreciation Rate = (Cost - Residual Value) ÷ Estimated Production

therefore,

Depreciation Rate = $14.00 per machine hour

<u><em>Step 2 : Depreciation expenses</em></u>

Depreciation expense = Depreciation Rate x Annual production

therefore

Year 1 = $42,000

Year 2 = $56,000

Year 3 = $70,000

Total    = $168,000

<em><u>Step 3 : Book Value</u></em>

Book Value = Cost - Accumulated Depreciation

                    = $225,000 - $168,000

                    = $57,000

Conclusion :

book value at the end of year 3 is $57,000

On April 30, 2017, Tilton Products purchased machinery for $88,000. The useful life of this machinery is estimated at 8 years, w
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

$6,666.67 and $10,000

Explanation:

The computation of the depreciation expense for the year 2017 and 2018 is shown below:

= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)  

= ($88,000 - $8,000) ÷ (8 years)  

= ($80,000) ÷ (8 years)  

= $10,000

Since the machinery is purchased on April 30 and we assume the books are closed on December 31 so the number of months calculated is 8 months

Therefore for the year 2017 the depreciation expense is

= $10,000 × 8 months ÷ 12 months

= $6,666.67

And, for the year 2018 the depreciation expense is same i.e $10,000

Ending work in process inventory        7,200                 3,100

Net income                                          1,000                   5,100

Explanation:

To work out the missing figures involves some manoeuvres of the figures, working up or down as the case may be.  For example, to calculate the cost of goods sold in Case 1, I deducted the ending inventory of finished goods from the Goods available for sale.  With this figure, it becomes possible to work out the Gross profit and the Net income.
