The company should accept the special order because it will get an additional profit of $4,000 ($12,500 - $7,500 - $1,000) for the special order. This additional profit amount can be acquired by separating the effect from the special order on each cost and sales of the company's business. The sales should increase by $12,500 ($5 x 2500 unit) amount if the job is taken and the variable cost should increase by $7,500 ($3 x 2500 unit). Lastly, the fixed cost should increase by $1,000 (the new machine).

Answer:
The journal entry is as follows:
Explanation:
January 5 Patent A/c..................Dr $100,000
To Cash A/c............Cr $100,000
As patent is purchased so asset is increasing and any increase in asset would be debited. Therefore, patent account is debited. And it is purchased against cash and decrease in asset is credited. Therefore, cash account is credited.
December 31 Amortization expense- Patent................Dr $5,000
To Accumulated Amortization- Patent........Cr $5,000

Answer:
a. $32,800
b. $37,019
c. $37,460
Explanation:
a. The computation of Total Amount Withdrawn by Alan when simple interest is shown below:-
Accumulated amount of money = Invested amount + (Rate of interest × Number of years)
= $20,000 + ($20,000 × 8% × 8)
= $32,800
b. The computation of Total Amount Withdrawn by Alan when annually Compounded is shown below:-
Accumulated amount of money = Invested amount × (1 + rate of interest)^Number of years
= $20,000 × (1 + 0.08)^8
= $20,000 × 1.85093
= $37,019
c. The computation of Total Amount Withdrawn by Alan when semi annually Compounded is shown below:-
Accumulated amount of money = Invested amount × (1 + rate of interest × Number of years ÷ 200)^16)
= ($20,000 × (1 + 0.08 × 8 ÷ 200)^16)
= $20,000 × 1.87298
= $37,460
Therefore we have applied the above formulas.
