Answer:

(a) $9,000 per employee

(b) $252,000; $198,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Fringe benefits cost during 2018 = $450,000

Employees assigned to division A = 28

Employees assigned to division B = 22

(a) Allocation rate:

= Total cost to be allocated ÷ Cost driver

= $450,000 ÷ 50

= $9,000 per employee

(b) Cost assigned to A:

= Division Allocation Rate × Weight of base (No. of employees)

= $9,000 × 28

= $252,000

Cost assigned to B:

= Division Allocation Rate × Weight of base (No. of employees)

= $9,000 × 22

= $198,000

the xyz block company purchased a new office computer and other depreciable computer hardware for $12,000. during the third year
Serhud [2]

Present worth is $7,944 ( Considering some assumptions )

Depreciation is the reduction in the value of asset due to wear and tear. Depreciation is charged only on fixed asset on a straight line or on a fixed rate per year.

Computer and other hardware of $12,000 to be depreciated over 5 years with no salvage value

<u>Depreciation </u><u>per year = ( Cost of Asset - Salvage value ) / Useful life </u>

= ($12,000 - $0) / 5 = $12,000/5 = $2,400 per year

It is assumed that the assets are donated at the end of third year and depreciation of that year is fully charged.

Depreciation for 3 years = $2,400 x 3 = $7,200

Now As all these event happened in the past and it is assumed that we are standing at the end of year 3, the present worth of the all these depreciation is actually the future value of these deduction because it was made earlier.

Present worth of depreciation is as follows

Present Worth = [$2,400 x (1+0.1)^2 ] + [$2,400 x (1+0.1)^1 ] + [$2,400 x (1+0.1)^0 ] = $2,904 + $2,640 + $2,400 = $7,944

Third deduction was made at the date when worth is being calculated.

Suppose that the U.S. government decides to charge cola consumers a tax. Before the tax, 45 million cases of cola were sold ever
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Tax on a case of cola is $4 per case.

The burden that falls on consumers is $1 per case.

The burden that falls on producers is $3 per case

False. This is due to the fact that producers already carry a greater share of the tax burden.

Explanation:

Tax on a case of cola = Amount that consumers pay after the tax has been charged - Amount producers receive = $7 - $3 = $4 per case

Burden on consumers = Amount consumers pay after the tax has been levied - Amount consumers pay before tax was levied = $7 - $5 = $1 per case

Burden on producers = Tax on a case of cola - Burden on consumers = $4 - $1 = $3 per case

False. This is due to the fact that producers already carry a greater share of the tax burden.

3. Suppose Tyrone wants to open a savings account that earns 3.5% simple interest per year. He wants it to be worth $1500 in 4 y
saw5 [17]

Answer:

$1,307

Explanation:

The computation of the future value by using the following formula is shown below:

As we know that

Future value = Present value × (1 + interest rate)^number of years  

$1,500 = Present value × (1 + 0.035)^4

So, the present value is

= $1,500 ÷ (1.035)^4

= $1,307

Hence, the present value is $1,307 and the same is to be considered
