Answer:
number of periods = 8 years.
Explanation:
We know,
Future Value = Present value × 
Here,
Present value = PV = $2,500
Future value = FV = $3,500
Interest rate (Compounding) = 5% = 0.05
We have to determine how many years (Periods) it will take, n = ?
Putting the values into the above formula,
$3,500 = $2,500 × 
or,
= $3,500 ÷ $2,500
or, n log 1.05 = 1.4
or, n × 0.17609 = 1.4
or, n = 1.4 ÷ 0.17609
Therefore, number of years = 7.95 or 8 years.
Answer:
depletion of the timber tract = $228,000 and
depreciation of the logging roads = $22,800
Explanation:
Timber tract
Depletion rate = (Cost - Residual Value) ÷ Estimated units
= ($2,950,000 - $670,000) ÷ 5,700,000
= $0.40
Depletion expense = Units used x Depletion rate
= 570,000 x $0.40
= $228,000
Logging Roads
Depreciation rate = (Cost - Residual Value) ÷ Estimated units
= ($228,000 - $0) ÷ 5,700,000
= $0.04
Depreciation expense = Units used x Depreciation rate
= 570,000 x $0.04
= $22,800
Answer: C) eliminating the effects of income statement transactions that did not result in a corresponding increase or decrease in cash
Explanation:
The income statement comprises of entries that are not cash based in nature but help in the computation of taxes amongst other things such as depreciation and amortization.
When calculating net cash provided from operating activities therefore the income calculated should be adjusted for any expenses or revenue that are not cash based in nature and so will not result in a corresponding increase or decrease in cash.
For instance, adding back depreciation and amortization to the net cash balance as both do not actually reduce the cash balance of the company.
Answer:
Credit the following;
Investment (Available for sale) $18,000
Gain on sale of an investment $2,000
Explanation:
Assuming all the unrealized holding gains and losses have been reversed, the investment will be recorded at the original cost of $18,000 instead of the fair value and the gain would then be $2,000.
The Journal entry for the sale would be;
DR Cash.......................................... .............$20,000
CR Investment (Available for sale)......................... $18,000
Gain on sale of an investment .................................$2,000
<em>(To record sale of bond investment)</em>
