Answer: C. The employees will receive a share of profits as part of the company's ESOP.

Explanation:

The retirees can still get a portion of profits if they are part of an Employee Stock Ownership Plan.

ESOP is a pretty standard thing these days with companies where they reward their employees with shares in the company.

Seeing as the company is making too little to be able to keep paying Retirement benefits, the retirees being owners of Stock can still partake in the earnings that the company makes when they distribute dividends.

goblinko [34]

Answer:B It thought that unemployment was a greater problem than the rising inflation rate

Explanation:

Inflation is the continuous rise in price of goods and services which is as a result of large volume of money in circulation used for the few available goods and services.

Unemployment is a situation where all that are willing and capable of being employed are unable to get employment.

In the above scenario lowering Interest rates will increase the volume of money in circulation which will invariably increase inflation and we equally increase level of investment as the cost of fund will be cheaper thereby lowering unemployment.

This action means unemployment is of greater problem than rising inflation.

It does not mean inflation is of more concern than unemployment otherwise it will have increase the interest rate, it will make loanable fund demanded to exceed supply and the quantity of money in supply will increase.

Therefore, for each year, a depreciation expense of $73,000 is charged to profit an loss.

Accumulated Depreciation Calculation :

Depreciation Expense : Year 1     $73,000
