strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The Sandra's adjusted basis for the automobile after the casualty will be $7000.

Explanation:

Sandra's adjusted basis after accident can be taken out using the following procedure -

  ADJUSTED BASIS BEFORE ACCIDENT

                         -

 LOSS DEDUCTION

                         -

 INSURANCE PROCEEDS

we have been given the value of adjusted basis before accident = $11,000 and insurance proceeds as = $3200, but we have to find the value of loss deduction.

LOSS DEDUCTION =

VALUE DECLINE - INSURANCE PROCEEDS

Where value decline is the difference between the market value of automobile before and after accident and insurance proceeds - ($10,000 - $6000) - $3200

     VALUE DECLINE - $4000 - $3200

                                 = $800

Now putting all the values in the procedure -

= $11,000 - $800 - $3200

= $7000

Natalie has been offered the two choices to finance her new $35,000 car, and she needs help knowing which to take. One option is
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

To find out what Natalie would give as a monthly installment, we first need to calculate the monhly payment on a $35000 loan with 7.5% interest rate for 48 months using present value annuity formual.

PV = 35000

r= 7.5% = 7.5%/12 = 0.00625

t = 48

PMT = monthly payments

PMT = (r*PV) / [1 - (1+r)-n]

  =( 0.00625* 35000) / [1-(1+0.00625)-48 ]

     = 218.75 / [ 1 - (1.00625)-48 ]

     = 218.75 / [ 1 - 0.74151 ]

     = 218.75 / 0.25849

     =$846.26

Monthly payment of $846.26

Total Cost = Monthly payment * 48

  =$40620.56

For second loan  option

r = 4.5%/12 = 0.00375

n = 36

PV = $35000

Using same formual

PMT = (r*PV) / [1 - (1+r)-n]

  =( 0.00375* 35000) / [1-(1+0.00375)-36 ]

  = 131.25 / [1 - (1.00375)-36 ]

  = 131.25 / [ 1 - 0.873937 ]

  = 131.25 / [ 0.126063

  = $1041.42

Monthly payment of $1041.42

Total payment = 1041.42*36

     = $37481.12

Thus, the 48 month or 4 year loan has monthly payment of $846.26 and total cost of $40620.56

And , the 36 month or 3 year loan has monthly payment of $1041.42 and total cost of $37481.12

(B) the cost will be capitalized along wih the patent cost under patent account

(C)

amortization using straight-line:

value / useful-line = depreciation per year

116,000 / 5 = 23,200 depreciation per year
