Hi there
What we need first is the book value of the equipment
The book value is
originally costing - accumulated depreciation
100,000−65,000=35,000
Since the sale price is 40000 and the book value is 35000 This result a gain of 5000 (40000-35000)
Good luck!
Answer: to protect the economic freedom of all of its citizens
Explanation:
The above quote by Adam Smith was him criticizing the common practice in those days of nations trying to control the spending habits of their citizens by passing restrictive laws and limiting the importation and production of certain goods and services.
It would therefore support the U.S. policy of protecting the economic freedom of her citizens such that they may trade whatever it is that they want - so long as it is legal - without restrictions by the government.
Answer:
a) 15 to 35 approximately 95%
(b) 10 to 40 approximately almost all
(c) 20 to 30 approximately 68%
Explanation:
The data have a bell-shaped distribution which means the data is equally distributed on both sides of the mean.
We have the mean at 25 and a standard deviation of 5 which means that the interval is for each of the values of 5 .
The mean would be u and
The first value would be u ±σ = 25 ± 5= 20 and 30 (68 % )
The second value will be u ± 2σ= 25± 10 = 15 and 35 (95%)
The third value will be u ± 3σ= 25 ± 15 = 10 and 40 (99.7 % almost all)
In the figure below the light blue region gives u ±σ on both sides of the mean
, dark blue gives u ± 2σ values on both sides of the mean and grey gives
u ± 3 σ values on both sides of the mean.
It is obvious that 68 % of the data is contained in the u ±σ light blue region, 95 % of the data in the u ± 2σ dark blue including light blue and 99.7 % in the u ± 3σ all colored regions.
Future expectations about price, can be a demand and supply shifter.
If producers know that prices will go up in the near future, they will be less likely to produce more now. They will want to sell when prices are higher. The reverse is true, if consumers know that prices will go down in the future they will be less likely to purchase now.
Answer:
c. update the static planning budget to reflect the actual level of activity for the period
Explanation:
A flexible budget is a financial plan of expenses and revenues based on the actual level of output. A flexible budget adapts to changes in prices and company needs. Because the budget varies with the market condition, it is called a variable cost.
Due to their variable nature, flexible budgets are used to update the static estimates at the end of a period. The company compares the actual result in the flexible budget with that of a static budget. The management uses a flexible budget to evaluate the business performance for the period. Specific areas of success and failures are highlighted. Decisions on areas that need improvement can then be made.
