Beck was the general manager of Chilkoot Lumber Co. Haines sold fuel to the company. To persuade Haines to sell on credit, Beck

signed a paper by which he promised to pay any debt the lumber company owed Haines. He signed this paper with his name followed by "general manager." Haines later sued Beck on this promise, and Beck raised the defense that the addition of "general manager" showed that Beck, who was signing on behalf of Chilkoot, was not personally liable and did not intend to be bound by the paper. Was Beck liable on the paper?

Answer:

No

Beck was the general manager of company. By signing the company's document, actually company is liable to pay that amount not individual. The claim that Haines make is incorrect as any liability is supposed to be beared by company. The claim that Beck made is correct. because he wrote general manager which means he is an employee of that company. So, liability falls on company rather than individual.

Answer:

The annual depreciation under SL is $16000 per year.

Explanation:

The depreciation expense under Straight Line (SL) method remains constant throughout an asset's useful life. The depreciation under straight line method is calculated by calculating the value of the asset that is eligible for depreciation, which is its cost less the salvage value (SV) and dividing it by the asset's useful life.

The straight line depreciation per year = (Cost - SV) / estimated useful life

Annual depreciation under SL = (100000 - 20000) / 5   = $16000 per year
