Cost of the Sold PPE and 2. The Accumulated Depreciation of the Sold PPE item. After that we complete our PPE disposal account to find the missing figure of the Sale Price of PPE.

1. Cost of Sold PPE

Open a PPE at Cost Account:  Opening Balance $ 7327 million (Debit), Addition of PPE $ 254 million (Debit),Closing Balance $6805 million(Credit).The Balancing figure of this account $ 776 million (credit) {7327+254-6805} is the cost of the PPE item sold.

2. Accumulated Depreciation of the Sold PPE Item

Open a PPE Accumulated Depreciation Account : Opening Balance $ 5516 million (Credit), Depreciation Expense $ 420 million (Credit), Closing Balance $ 5254 million (Debit). The Balancing figure of this account $682 million (Debit) is the Accumulated Depreciation of the PPE item disposed or sold.

3. Disposal Account and Calculation of the Sale Price (Balancing figure)

Open a PPE Disposal Account : Cost of PPE $ 776 million (Debit), Gain on Sale of PPE $ 14 million (Debit), Accumulated Depreciation of the PPE Sold $ 682 million (Credit). The Balancing figure of this account $ 108 million (Credit) {776+14-108} is the Sale Price of PPE item.

Thus Sale price of the PPE is $ 108 million.

uysha [10]

Answer:

Falls:rises.

Explanation:

The MU/P (Marginal Utility/Price) ratio for good X is greater than the MU/P (Marginal Utility/Price) ratio for good Y. To achieve consumer equilibrium, the consumer reallocates dollars from the purchase of good Y to the purchase of good X. If the law of diminishing marginal utility holds, the marginal utility of good X falls and the marginal utility of good Y rises.

The law of diminishing marginal utility states that as the unit of a good or service consumed by an individual increases, the additional satisfaction he or she derives from consuming additional units would start decreasing or diminishing as the units of good or service consumed increases.

Also, the marginal utility of goods and services is the additional satisfaction that a consumer derives from consuming or buying an additional unit of a good or service.

Hence, the marginal utility of good X falls and the marginal utility of good Y rises because the consumer no longer derive satisfaction or benefits (utility) from the consumption of good X while he would switch to good Y for satisfaction.

Completed unit        58,500      58,500× 100%  =     58,500
