Answer:
The depreciation for the first year is $75,000
Explanation:
In working hours method the depreciation on a fixed asset is charged using the ratio of numbers of hours utilized by the asset in a period and lifetime working capacity in hours.
First, we need to calculate the Depreciable value
Depreciable value = Cost of Asset - Salvage value = $315,000 - $15,000 = $300,000
Depreciation = Depreciable value x Numbers of hours worked / Total working capacity of Asset = $300,000 x 25,000 / 100,000 = $75,000
Answer:
1. b. $896.00
2. c. $317.20
3. a. $578.80
4. b. $67.20
5. d. $4.80
Explanation:
1. WIlliam's total earnings
40 hours at $16 = $640
8 hours at $32 = $256
Total = $896
2. WIlliam's total deductions
Income Tax $200
United Fund deduction $50
Social security tax (6% * $896) $3.76
Medicare tax (1.5% * $896) <u>$13.44</u>
Total <u>$317.20</u>
3. William's net pay
= Total earnings - Total deductions
= $896 - $317.20
= $578.80
Cash Paid is $578.80
4. Employers FICA based on Williams pay
Social Security and Medicare taxes = 7.5% * $869 = $67.20
5. Employers Federal Unemployment based on Williams pay
Federal unemployment tax = 0.8% * $600 = $4.80

Answer:
D) The supply of the output from the hydroelectric power plants to increase
Explanation:
The externality here is a negative one where the hydroelectric plants has to bear the cost of pollution as the paper mills operates.
Correcting means to make the paper mills pay for the external costs of their production and compensate the power plant for the additional cost that incurred as they have to clean up the water.
As the cost of production reduces, the power plant will be more willing to supply electricity at similar prices, ie. their supply curve will shift to the right. It will intersect with the demand curve of the consumers at a point with higher quantity (and maybe lower price)
In other words, they will supply more electricity.
