Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

For April, revenue was $90,000 and labor hours were 4x[(40x6)+(25x4)]. This is 90,000/1,360 = 66.18 dollars per hour of labor. For May, revenue was $80,000 and labor hours were 4x[(40x6)+(10x2)] This is 80,000/1,040 =  77 dollars per hour of labor a difference of $ 10.82per hour. The percentage change in productivity between April and May, then, is 3.95/44.12 = 0.1634935026x 100 = 16.35%

Augustus Company is considering investing in new equipment. Based on the following, what is the Average Annual Operating Income
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

$50,000

Explanation:

Estimated Cost of New Equipment = $500,000

Useful life in years = 5

Estimated Residual Value = $50,000

Expected New Cash Inflows over life of asset = $700,000

Annual depreciation expense = (Estimated Cost of New Equipment-Estimated Residual Value)/Useful life in years

= ($500,000 - $50,000) / 5

= $450,000 / 5

= $90,000

Average annual cash flow = Expected New Cash Inflows over life of asset/ Useful life in years

= $700,000/5

= $140,000

Average annual operating income = Average annual cash flow - Annual depreciation expense

= $140,000 - $90,000

= $50,000

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

c. Debit: Discount on notes payable, $41,884.

Explanation:

The journal entry is shown below:

Equipment    $883,116  

Discount on Notes payable $41,884  ($740,000 - $698,116)

        To Notes payable       $740,000  

        To Cash                       $185,000

(Being the amount paid in cash and note payable is recorded)

Working note

= Note payable amount × PVF factor at 6% for one year

= $740,000 × 0.94340

= $698,116

For recording this we debited the equipment as it increased the assets and discount is always debited while the note payable and cash is credited as it increased the liabilities and reduced the assets
