On January 1, Year 1, Raven Limo Service, Inc. paid $64,000 cash to purchase a limousine. The limo was expected to have a six ye
MAXImum [283]

Assuming Raven uses straight-line depreciation, the Company would recognize a $2,000 gain.

<h3>What is straight-line depreciation?</h3>

The simplest way to determine depreciation over time is through straight-line depreciation. According to this strategy, an asset's value is reduced by the same amount for each year that it is in use.

<h3>Depreciation formula:</h3>

(Depreciation expense per year = (Cost of the asset - Salvage value) ÷ Useful life.

The given data is -

The cost of asses is given as $64,000.

The salvage value is given as $10,000.

The sole price is $30,000.

Calculation for the depreciation-

Depreciation expense per year = ($64,000 Cost - $10,000 Salvage) ÷ (6               Year life)

Depreciation expense per year = $9,000

Accumulated depreciation on January 1, Year 5 = ($9,000 per year) × (4 years)

Accumulated depreciation on January 1, Year 5 = $36,000.

Book value = $64,000 Cost - $36,000 Accumulated depreciation

                    = $28,000

Gain on sale = $30,000 Sales price - $28,000 Book value

                     = $2,000)

Therefore, the gain on the scale is  $2,000.

Jackson company has the following financial information for their most recent fiscal year: Revenues Cost of Sales Interest Expen
irinina [24]

Answer:

The calculations are shown below

Explanation:

The computations are shown below:

But before that, first we have to prepare the income statement so that the values could come    

Particulars Amount  

Revenues $99,700  

Less: Cost of sales -$64,700  

Gross profit $35,000  

Less: Interest expenses -$1,800  

Earnings before tax $33,200  

Less: Taxes -$11,620  

Net income $21,580  

So, the calculations are shown below:

1. Earnings per share = Net income ÷ Common stock outstanding  

= $21,580 ÷ 16,000 shares    

= $1.35 per share

2. Price earnings ratio = Stock price per share ÷ Earnings per share  

= $22 ÷ $1.35    

= 16.3 times  

3. Long term debt to equity ratio  = Long term debt ÷ Total equity  

= $45,800 ÷ $120,000    

= 0.38 times  

4. Total market value = Number of shares outstanding × Market price per share

= 16,000 shares  × $22    

= $352,000

xeze [42]

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question is option B) both statements i and ii are correct.

Explanation:

First of all the marginal product can be defined as the additional unit of product that a business can produce by using additional unit of input. And marginal revenue product refers to the change that occurs in the total revenue due to the production of additional unit of product.

Any competitive firm would hire additional workers only when the MRPL (marginal revenue product of labor) is greater than the wages paid to that labor and additional cost incurred in hiring those workers and they would stop hiring the workers when the MRPL is equal to the cost paid to the workers.

Otrada [13]

Answer:

$1,213,657.685

Explanation:

For computation of compounded future value first we need to find out the present worth which is shown below:-

Present\ worth = Initial\ amount\ of\ investment\times \frac{(1 - (1 + g)^n \times (1 + i)^{-n}}{i - g}

= \$2,250\times  (\frac{(1 - (1 + 0.04)^{45}\times (1 + 0.06)^{-45}}{0.06 - 0.04})\\\\ = \$2,250 \times \frac{1-0.216245988}{0.02}

= $88,172.32636

Now, Future value = Present worth × (1 + interest rate)^number of years

= $88,172.32636  × (1 + 6%)^45

= $1,213,657.685

Therefore we have applied the above formula to determine the future value.
