Answer:

Depreciation for 6 months ending June 30, 2016 is $ 5,000 and the accounting entry to record the transaction is:

Depreciation Expense  - Debit                    $ 5,000

Allowance for Depreciation  - Credit           $ 5,000  

Explanation:

The depreciation charge for the year is calculated as follows:

Total cost of the equipment                             $ 55,000

Salvage Value                                                    $  5,000

Net Depreciable value                                      $  50,000

Estimated Useful Life                                           5 years

Annual Depreciation expense(50000/5)         $ 10,000

Depreciation for 6 months (10000/2)               $ 5,000

Q 4.35: McGinnis Construction is a cash-basis company with a fiscal year-end of June 30. McGinnis’ employees earn a normal weekl
hjlf

Answer: Understatement, $30,900

Explanation:

There will be an UNDERSTATEMENT of McGinnis' net income for the most recent fiscal year of $30,900.

The Understatement arises because as of year end which is June 30th, McGinnis were not paid for their services that cost $40,900 and instead will only be paid on the 8th of the next month so it was not accounted for in the net income.

The reason the net income understatement is $30,900 and not $40,900 is because McGinnis will still have to account for the payment to it's employees. If in a five day week they earn $12,500, that would mean that they earn $2,500 a day (12,500/5). Seeing as June ended on a Thursday, that is a 4 day week which means $2,500*4= $10,000.

That $10,000 will reduce the net income by that amount.

The net effect is a $30,900 UNDERSTATEMENT.

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

Option A is the cheapest.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The engineering department estimates costs of $450,000 for the first year. It is estimated that if process and plant alterations are made, the waste treatment cost will decline $43,000 each year. As an alternative, a specialized firm, Hydro-Clean, has offered a contract to process the waste liquids for 15 years for $225,000 per year.

We need to use the following formula and chose the smallest net present value:

NPV= Io +∑ [Cf/(1+i)^n]

Option A:

Io= 407,000

Year cost= 43,000

NPV= 734,061

Option B:

Yearly cost= 225,000

NPV= 1,936,368
