Answer:

Explanation:

A project whose NPV equals zero shows that return on the project is equal to the cost of capital (hurdle rate). This may not seem like an attractive investment however, it is viable and given some conditions, a company may decide to invest in it. An example of such would be if investors and financial managers believe that the hurdle rate used in determining the risk of the project is exaggerated or if letting the available capital stay idle is more costly than investing it in a project that will break-even.

When an accelerated depreciation method is used to calculate depreciation expense: Multiple Choice the accumulated depreciation
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

the net book value of the asset halfway through its useful life will be less than if straight-line depreciation is used.

Explanation:

Let me use an example to illustrate this.

An asset has a useful life of 4 years. It costs $1000. It has a salvage value of 0

If the straight line depreciation method is used , the depreciation expense every year = $1000/ 4 = $250

The net book value halfway through its useful life = $1000 - ($250 x 2) = $500

If double declining method is used, the depreciation expense in the first year would be = 2/4 x $1000 = $500

The net book value at the beginning of year 2 = $1000 - $500 = $500

Depreciation expense in year 2 = 2/4 x $500 = $250

The net book value at the beginning of year 3 = $500 - $250 = $250

We can see that the net book value halfway through the useful is lower when double declining depreciation method is used

<em>(Interest expense recognition on note for 2 months)</em>

Debit Interest payable                           $2,250

Credit Cash                                          $62,250

<em>(To record settlement of note at maturity)</em>

In the books of  Yellow Bank:

November 1, 2017:

Debit Note receivable                        $60,000

Credit Cash                                         $60,000

<em>(To record note receivable from Blue Company)</em>

December 31, 2017:

Credit Interest revenue                           $500

<em>(Interest revenue recognition on note for 2 months)</em>

August 1, 2018:

Debit Cash                                         $62,250

Credit Note receivable                     $60,000

Credit Interest receivable                   $2,250

<em>(To record note collection at maturity)</em>

Explanation:

Note receivable is a promissory note with a written promise made by the borrower to the lender (payee) to pay a certain, definite sum at a specified date.

Interest expense / revenue on the notes is calculated as: Principal x Interest Rate x Time

In this case, the total interest expense / revenue is $60,000 x 5%/12 x 9 months = $2,250.

Monthly interest expense / revenue is therefore $2,250 / 9 months = $250.

Therefore, interest expense / revenue recognition for 2 months will be $250 x 2 months (November 1 - December 31) = $500.

What do you think about the 7dream concept for seven- eleven japan? from a supply chain perspective, is it likely to be more suc
VashaNatasha [74]
The Seven Dream concept of the Seven Eleven convenience store is a good supply chain concept that targets e-commerce customer. While most of the e-commerce portal are successful these days, 7 Dream comes as an unique inception. This allows customer to order via online and collect from the store deliveries at their convenience as well. The concept is seem to be more preferred in Japan, where customers have preference towards store delivery of the shipped goods. In fact, the 7- eleven in Japan is more successful than any other countries where the franchise has its stores open.

From the supply chain perspective, I think 7dream concept will be more successful in Japan than in USA. The reason being the urban customer of Japanese market and convenient access  for them to store and pick up. For place like USA, where population is sparsely distributed to large area, this supply chain concept will not be very effective. For Suburban population, this model will be very inconvenience as they have to drive a long way to store to collect their deliveries, which they could have easily got home delivered via other such services.
