Answer:
Correct answer is letter D, $11,000 cost, five-year life and $1,000 salvage value
Explanation:
To compute depreciation expense of an asset using straight-line method of depreciation, the information we needed is 3,
1. cost of an asset
2. life of an asset (in year)
3. residual value (if available)
<em>* residual value of an asset is to be determined by the company, some asset don't have scrap value assigned.</em>
<em />
<em>FORMULA </em>
<em>The difference between the cost of an asset and the expected residual value over the number of years it is expected to be useful.</em>
<em>(cost of an asset - residual value ) / life of an asset</em>
Answer: D. If one country creates all the reserves it can prevent other countries from trading.
Explanation:
<em>Ditching the Dollar</em> refers to a movement by nations to reduce the dependence on the US. dollar for transactions.
The USD is the major currency for trade around the world with it accounting for the currency of use in more than 50% of the entire World trade. This was due to the Bretton Woods Agreement and System which at the time pegged the USD to gold and other currencies at certain value to the USD.
The influence the USD gained that day continues today. Countries however are increasing becoming fed up by the United States using the Dollar to impose trade restrictions and sanctions on countries and then requiring everyone to fall in line because trades are mostly done in the currency controlled by the US, the USD.
For instance, when sanctions were imposed on Iran, the European Union looked for alternative means of payment for Iranian oil.
Ditching the Dollar therefore argues that having multiple reserve currencies to choose from is healthy because one country will not be able to control world trade as the US has.
Answer:
inflation rate = 17.5 percent per year ⇒ it will take 4 years to double
inflation rate = 35 percent per year ⇒ it will take 2 years to double
inflation rate = 3.5 percent per year ⇒ it will take 20 years to double
Explanation:
we can use the rule of 70 to determine the amount of time it would take the general price level to double.
the rule of 70 is a simple way we can use to estimate the number of years it will take an investment to double given a certain growth rate.
70 / 17.5 = 4 years
70 / 35 = 2 years
70 / 3.5 = 20 years
he importance of information giving has been recognized and promoted in political,

Answer:
D) Stock prices of companies that announce increased earning in January tend to outperform the market in February.
Explanation:
The above is consistent with the Efficient Market Hypothesis. All others are a direct contravention.
<em>The efficient market hypothesis (EMH), also known as the efficient market theory, is a hypothesis that states that the prices of shares contain all information and that consistent alpha generation is impossible.</em>
According to the hypothesis, stocks always trade at their fair value on exchanges, making it impossible for investors to purchase undervalued stocks or sell stocks for inflated prices.
This means that it should not be possible to outperform the overall market through professional stock selection or market timing.
The only way according to EMH that an investor can obtain better returns is by purchasing riskier investments.
By implication, this also means that it is not possible to "beat the market" consistently on a risk-adjusted basis since market prices should only react to new information.
You would note that in the option D, earning (which is a key driver for demand of stock) is announced in one month. The natural reaction would be for the demand for that stock to surge in the next month.
