Answer:

There is a loss on disposal of $10000 and option C is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The units of production method charges depreciation based on the activity level that the asset is used for during a period

The depreciation rate under this method is,

Depreciation per hour = (240000 - 40000) / 10000  =  $20 per hour

The depreciation for the Year 2015 and 2016 under the units of production method is,

2015 = 20 * 2400 = $48000

2016 = 20 * 2100 = $42000

The accumulated depreciation at the end of 2016 is = 48000 + 42000 = $90000

The carrying value at the end of 2016 is = 240000 - 90000 = $150000

The gain/loss on disposal = 140000 - 150000 = - $10000 or a loss of $10000

Blababa [14]

Answer:

B. The hedge is asymmetric.

Explanation:

Hedging refers to a technique or a mechanism whereby firms and individuals aim for risk reduction, arising out of uncertain and volatile business situations, which may result into a heavy loss.

For example, an exporter entering into a forward contract to eliminate or reduce the risk of arising out of a future situation wherein, future receipts denominated in a foreign currency, receivable at a future date, may be less than same receipts receivable at current spot exchange rate as on today.

Currency hedge ratio depicts the proportion of total exposure which is covered by hedge w.r.t the total exposure itself.

Asymmetrical hedge refers to covering an exposure by an opposite position wherein the chances of earning profits are higher than the losses current position can lead to. Such an hedge would be similar to covering a call option with a put option. Asymmetrical refers to being of dissimilar or non equal size. Here, it refers to the dissimilarity between prospective profits and losses.

Under a perfect hedge, the loss position in a scenario is completely covered i.e 100% by a prospective gain in other situation, with there being negative correlation between the two scenarios such as if scenario 1 yields a profit, scenario 2 would yield a loss and vice versa.

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Debit Office Furniture account    $710

Credit Cash account                    $170

Credit Accounts payable             $710

Being entries to recognize office furniture partly paid for.

Explanation:

Total worth of the office furniture = $170 + $540 = $710

The total debit for this will be recorded in the office furniture account.

Hence to recognize the transaction,

Debit Office Furniture account    $710

Credit Cash account                    $170

Credit Accounts payable             $710

Being entries to recognize office furniture partly paid for.

If d0 = $1.75, g (which is constant) = 3.6%, and p0 = $40.00, what is the stock's expected total return for the coming year?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

The answer is <u>"a. 8.13%".</u>

Explanation:

Given that;

d0 = $1.75

p0 = $40.00

g = 3.6% = 0.036

By using the formula;

Price of the stock = (Dividend this year)(1+g) ÷ (r - g)  

By putting the values;

40 = (1.75)(1+0.036) ÷ (r - 0.036)

r - 0.036 = (1.75)(1.036) ÷ 40

r - 0.036 = 1.813 ÷ 40

r - 0.036 = 0.045325

r = 0.045325 + 0.036

r = 0.081325 = 0.081325 x 100

<u>r = 8.13%</u>
