On January 3, 2014, Trusty Delivery Service purchased a truck at a cost of $90,000. Before placing the truck in service, Trusty
likoan [24]

Answer:

Accumulated depreciation for Years 1 - 5 under:

  • the Straight-line method is $90,000.
  • the Units-of-production method is $90,000.
  • the Double-declining-balance method is $86,170.

Explanation:

The total cost of the asset is $90,000 + $3,000 + $1,500 + $4,500 = $99,000, since all the other costs were directly attributable cost and were necessary to bring the asset to usable form.

  • The painting is capitalized because it is the first time Trust Delivery would be using the asset, otherwise it would have been expended
  • Overhauling cost can be regarded as a separate asset, if we were provided with different useful lives - componentization.

Under straight-line method, depreciation expense is (cost - residual value) / No of years = ($99,000 - $9,000) / 5 years = $18,000 yearly depreciation expense.

Accumulated depreciation for Years 1 to 5 is $18,000 x 5 years $90,000.

The unit-of-production method is used when the asset value closely relates to the units of output it is able to produce. It is expressed with the formula below:

(Original Cost - Salvage value) / Estimated production capacity x Units/year

At Year 1, depreciation expense (DE) is: ($99,000 - $9,000) / 100,000 miles x 22,500 miles = $20,250/year

Accumulated depreciation for the first four years is $20,250 x 4 years = $81,000.

At Year 5, depreciation = $90,000 / 100,000 miles x 10,000 miles = $9,000

Note that this depreciation method results in higher depreciation charge when the asset is heavily used, at this time, it was in Years 1 - 4.

Accumulated depreciation expense for Years 1 to 5, under this method, is $90,000 (addition of first four years and the Year 5).

The double-declining method is otherwise known as the reducing balance method and is given by the formula below:

Double declining method = 2 X SLDP X BV

SLDP = straight-line depreciation percentage

BV = Book value

SLDP is 100%/5years = 20%, then 20% multiplied by 2 to give 40%

At Year 1, 40% X $99,000 = $39,600

At Year 2, 40% X $59,400 ($99,000 - $39,600) = $23,760

At Year 3, 40% X $35,640 ($59,400 - $23,760) = $14,256

At Year 4, 40% X $21,384 ($35,640 - $14,256) = $8,554 approximately (the depreciation expense would stop at this stage since the amount falls below the residual value).

Accumulated depreciation expense for Years 1 to 4, under this method, is $86,170 (addition of all the yearly depreciation).

Consider two scenarios for a nation's economic growth. Scenario A has real GDP growing at an average annual rate of 3.5 percent;
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

20 years (scenario A) and 16 years (scenario B)

Explanation:

The real GDP will double in "n" number of years, with "n" estimated by interpolation using the formula below.

current GDP * (1+Growth Rate)^{n} = 2 * current GDP

In the solutions below, we assumed current GDP to be 1, and as a result, the GDP will double to 2.

Scenario A

1 * (1+0.35)^{n} =2

When you substitute 20 for "n" in the left hand side (LHS) of the equation, you will arrive at 1.99 which is approximately equal to 2. Any number below 20 will result in a number less than 2.

Thus, with an average annual real GDP growth rate of 3.5%, real GDP will double in about 20 years.

Scenario B

1 * (1+0.45)^{n} =2

When you substitute 16 for "n" in the left hand side (LHS) of the equation, you will arrive at 2.02 which is approximately equal to 2. Any number below 16 will result in a number less than 2.

Thus, with an average annual real GDP growth rate of 4.5%, real GDP will double in about 16 years.

Under what conditions can a good separation be achieved with a simple distillation?
Reil [10]
Distillation is a process that can separate a mixture, composed of two or more components, by using selective evaporation and condensation. In this process is important to have the components with different boiling points, otherwise it's not possible to separate.
That means, that a good separation can be achieved if the boiling points have a large difference.

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

The ​short-run market supply curve shows the quantity supplied by all the firms in the market at each price when each firm's plant and the number of firms remain the same.

Explanation:

The short-run market supply curve is derived from each invidividual short-run supply curve at a given price, stating it as the sum of the quantities supplied by all the firms at this price.

If each firm's plant and the number of firms remain the same, you can calculate the market supply curve.
