Miller Mining, a calendar-year corporation, purchased the rights to a copper mine on July 1, Year 1. Of the total purchase price

, $2.8 million was appropriately allocable to the copper. Estimated reserves were 800,000 tons of copper. Miller expects to extract and sell 10,000 tons of copper per month. Production began immediately. The selling price is $25 per ton. Miller uses percentage depletion (15%) for tax purposes. To aid production, Miller also purchased some new equipment on July 1, Year 1. The equipment cost $76,000 and had an estimated useful life of 8 years. After all the copper is removed from this mine, however, the equipment will be of no use to Miller and will be sold for an estimated $4,000. If sales and production conform to expectations, what is Miller’s depreciation expense on the new equipment for financial accounting purposes for the Year 1 calendar year?
a. $10,800
b. $5,400
c. $9,000
d. $4,500

Answer:

d. $4,500

Explanation:

The computation of depreciation expense on the new equipment is shown below:-

For computing the depreciation expense on the new equipment first we need to find out the Depreciation per annum which is here below:-

Depreciation per annum = (Cost - Residual value) ÷ Life

= ($76,000 - $4,000) ÷ 8

= $72,000 ÷ 8

= $9,000

Depreciation for 1 year calendar (July 1 to Dec 31) = Depreciation per annum × 6 months ÷ Total number of months in a year

= $9,000 × 6 ÷ 12

= $4,500

So, the depreciation expenses for the year end up-to 31st Dec is $4,500

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Total cost assigned to Job XY5:

Direct material cost                                               4,000

Direct labour cost (50 hrs x $15 x 50 units)     37,500

Overhead applied (50 hrs x $4 x 50 units)       10,000

Total cost of the job                                              51,500

Overhead absorption rate

= <u>Budgeted overhead</u>

  Budgeted direct labour hours

=<u> $80,000</u>

  20,000 hrs

= $4 per direct labour hour

Explanation:

The total cost of the job is the aggregate of direct material cost, direct labour cost and overhead. Overhead is absorbed based on direct labour hours. We need to calculate overhead absorption rate by dividing the budgeted overhead by budgeted direct labour hours. The overhead absorption rate is used to multiply the direct labour hours of the job in order to obtain the overhead applied to the job.

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

Ans. The cost of equity capital is 6.5 (6.5%)

Explanation:

Hi, all we need to do is fill the following equation with the data from the problem.

r(e)=rf+beta*(MRP)

Where:

rf = Risk free rate (in our case, 2%)

MRP = market risk premium (in our case, 6%)

r(e) = Cost of equity capital

Therefore, this is what we get.

r(e)=0.02+0.75*0.06=0.065

So the cost of equity capital is 6.5% or 6.5 as the problem suggests to answer.

Best of luck.
