Answer:

Depreciation expense on third year is $2,400

Explanation:

First, we must compute the depreciation expense for the first 2 years.

($18,000 - 2,000)/5years = $3,200 depreciation expense per year.

Second, let’s compute the net book value before the adjustment.

$3,200 x 2 years = $6,400 (total depreciation for 2 years)

$18,000 - $6,400 = $11,600 (Net book value before adjustment)

Finally we can now compute the Depreciation expense on the third year.

($11,600 - $2,000) / 3+1

$9,600/4 = $2,400 (new depreciation expense on third year)

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

$0.50

=$0.50

As randomly selected securities are combined to create a portfolio, the _________ risk of the portfolio decreases until 20 to 40
malfutka [58]

Answer and Explanation:

The Risk of an investment that can be minimized or removed by mixing several portfolio assets is called risk diversification.

Risk of an investment asset that can not be minimized or removed by inserting that asset is considered a non-diversifiable risk to a diversified investment portfolio.

So as per the question since the risk of the portfolio decreased from 20 to 40 the portion of the risk eliminated is diversifiable risk and the remaining would be considered as a non-diversifiable risk.
