Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": vouchers as an efficient and equitable use of public resources.

Explanation:

School vouchers are monetary public resources allocated to private education. States provide parents a certain amount of money so their children go to a private school or, in other cases, that money can be used for homeschooling. The money provided covers part of private schooling only.

Therefore, <em>if a person focuses on providing students technical knowledge that could be useful for students when they join the workforce instead of allocating resources for private regular shooling, that individual is likely to consider that vouchers are not used efficiently neither it brings effective results.</em>

victus00 [196]

Answer:

The investor will pay up the rereofitted pumps in a period of 22.52 months.

Explanation:

<em><u>First,</u></em> we solve for the amount of profit generate per month:

21,000 gallons a month x $0.09 per gallon = $1,890

Now, we calcualte the time at which an monthly income of 1890 discounted at 2% per month matches a present value of 34,000

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C  $1,890.00

time    n

rate 0.02

PV $34,000.0000

1890 \times \frac{1-(1+0.02)^{-n} }{0.02} = 34000\\

(1+0.02)^{-n}= 1-\frac{34000\times0.02}{1890}

(1+0.02)^{-n}=  0.64021164

We use logarithmics properties to solve for n:

-n= \frac{log0.64021164021164}{log(1+0.02)

-22.52006579

n = 22.5200 = 22 and a half month.

On its December 31, 2017, balance sheet, Calgary Industries reports equipment of $470,000 and accumulated depreciation of $94,00
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

The cost balance on 31 December 2018 is $518,000 while that of accumulated depreciation is $126,400

Explanation:

The balance of fixed assets is computed as

Opening balance - accumulated depreciation - depreciation + Addition - Disposal

Hence given that on December 31, 2017, Calgary Industries reports equipment of $470,000 and accumulated depreciation of $94,000. During 2018, the company plans to purchase additional equipment costing $100,000 and expects depreciation expense of $40,000, Additionally, it plans to dispose of equipment that originally cost $52,000 and had accumulated depreciation of $7,600 the balance then

= $470,000 + $100,000 - $52,000

= $518,000

The accumulated depreciation

= $94,000 + $40,000 - $7,600

= $126,400

What is the present value of $1,400 a year at a discount rate of 8 percent if the first payment is received 7 years from now and
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

Present Value = $9,417.69  (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Annual payment = $1,400

Total payments = 25

Rate = 8% = 0.08

Computation:

First payment [7 years from now ]

So,

Present Value = $1,400(1/1.08⁶)[1 - (1/1.08)²⁵] / 0.08

Present Value = $1,400[6.72692]

Present Value = $9,417.69  (Approx)

Career Services, Incorporated sold some office equipment for $52,000 on December 31, 2021. The journal entry to record the sale
Papessa [141]

Answer:

Date of selling machine is 31 Dec 2021, then gain of $47,000

If date of selling this machine is 31 Dec 2012 (used tenor: 4 years), then gain of 2,000

Explanation:

Depreciation per year = (original cost $80,000  - residual value $5,000)/ useful life of 10 years

= $7,500 per year

Date of purchase: January 1, 2009

Date of sold:  December 31, 2021

⇒ Actual life of this machine = 13 years, but the maximum depreciation as accounting rule is for 10 year only

After 13 years, the book value = original cost - depreciation booked

= $80,000 - $7,500*10 = $5,000

Gain/ Loss =  sold price - boo value = $52,000 - $5,000 = $47,000

If date of selling this machine is 31 Dec 2012 (used tenor: 4 years), then we have:

Gain/ Loss = sold price - book value

= $52,000 - ($80,000 - $7,500*4) = 2,000
