Answer:

Option A ,$2000 gain

Explanation:

Upon disposal of asset an, the cost is transferred from asset to disposal by crediting asset account and debiting disposal account.

The accumulated depreciation on the asset is also transferred from accumulated depreciation account to disposal account by debiting accumulated depreciation account and crediting disposal account

Lastly the proceeds from disposal is debit to cash account and credited to disposal account.

The sum of proceeds and accumulated depreciation on the credit side is compared to the cost on the debit side in the disposal account,when credit is more there is a gain on disposal and vice versa.

In this instance, sum of accumulated depreciation and proceeds of $34000($18000+$16,000) is more than cost of $32000,hence gain on disposal is $2000($34000-$32000)

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

The price is $1,540      

Explanation:

The reason is that the profit share is $1,100 and the cost includes computer chip, software and printer which are worth $150, $250 and $40.

The price can be calculated using the following formula:

Price - Cost = Profit

Here profit is $1100 and cost is $440 (150+250+40)

By putting the values we have:

Price - $440 = $1100

Price = $1100 + $440 = $1540

Answer: E.When there are so many industry rivals that the impact of any one company's actions is spread thinly across all industry members

The decision for increasing or reducing price is met by follower firms to do the same thing. It gets less competitive because you know all the players in the industry would be following the same practices and doing the same thing.
