Answer:
I'm not sure what this question is about, but the concept of the income expenditures model and its components is the following:
In the income (or aggregate) expenditures model, its author (Keynes) established certain assumptions in order to analyze how the economy works as a whole. His assumptions included that investment, government spending and net exports were all independent from income level.
When the economy is at equilibrium, total expenditures (GDP) = income level = consumption + government + investment + net exports
Another important assumptions are:
- marginal propensity to consume (MPC) + marginal propensity to save (MPS) = 1
- consumption = autonomous consumption + [MPC x (total income level - taxes)]
Savings = investment increase when disposable income increases or real GDP increases.
This model is used to explain the relationship between labor and production levels, and how they are affected by the economy's total expenditures. By increasing expenditures, the demand for labor and products/services will increase.
Answer:
The book value of this equipment at the end of four years if he ignores bonus depreciation $26,290.
Explanation:
Cost of property = $67,600
Balance Depreciation
Year 1 67,600 13520
Year 2 54,080 17,306
Year 3 36,774 7,061
Year 4 29,713 3,423
Book vaue at the end of year 4 = 29,713 - 3423 = $26,290

Answer:
c.Rents occur at the beginning of each period of an annuity due.
Explanation:
First, know the difference between Ordinary annuity and Annuity due.
In Ordinary annuity, recurring payments occur at the end of the payment period; for example at the end of every month, end of ever year , end of every quarter etc.
On the other hand, in the case of Annuity due, the recurring payments occur at the beginning of the period like at the beginning of the month, beginning of the year;Jan 1st, or beginning of every quarter
In the case of rent, tenants pay rent at the beginning of each month making this type of payment an Annuity Due.
Answer:
Explanation:
Under GAAP, every cost incurred should be classified into either period cost or product cost, where:
Product Cost:
The cost business has incurred right now, but will benefit from it in future for e.g. raw materials used to manufacture something which will be sold in next period (by the way period means the time span for which business is reporting its performance like year or quarter). these generally include direct labor, materials and manufacturing over heads
these costs should be capitalized and expensed out in future as the inventory is used.
Period Cost:
all other costs from which business has benefited completely in current period, including admin sales and distribution related costs
these should be expensed out in current period.
for warehousing costs, if they pertain to raw materials and semi finished goods they will be capitalized but if they pertains to finished goods they will be expensed out (as there is no benefit expected from them in future now)
for research and development, every research cost should be expensed out for e.g. feasibility studies under GAAP, but if product found to be commercially viable then the development costs can be capitalized as intangible asset(with the same logic as these will be exactly like manufacturing costs for tangible products).
