Answer:

132,000$ will be recorded by west as amortization expense for the year.

Explanation:

Depreciation/amortization is systematic allocation of cost of asset over its useful life. In this case asset cost is not given so we assume that PV of lease payment is equal to market value (660,000 dollars) of asset.

In case of leased asset the useful life taken for calculation of depreciation is lower of 1) Useful life 2) Lease term as per applicable accounting standards.

So we have taken 5 years to charge depreciation on Straight line method.

Hence by dividing 660000 by five we get our answer.

crimeas [40]

Option c. A current liability is a correct answer. The amount of federal income taxes withheld from an employee's gross pay is recorded as a current liability

Under employment law, employers operate as intermediaries between employees and state and federal agencies. It is the obligation of employers to track and pay taxes, social security, and other payments from employee pay to government agencies.

The company must remit the amount withheld each quarter which means the amounts are owed in the current period. When taxes are paid, the FIT Payable account is debited to balance the transactions.

Option a) is incorrect as no asset is created by the withholding.

Option b) is incorrect as the taxes are not an expense paid by the company.

Option d) is incorrect as the payable operates as a normal liability account.

Production activities are done as needed in order to satisfy a specific demand.
worty [1.4K]

Hi there!

Usually, this is the case.  However, just like when hoverboards first came out, there was a shortage of hoverboards and production activities had to ramp up production.  However, after a few months, production activities were at a high level, but demand petered out.

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

Inventory turnover in days = 43.59 days

Inventory turnover (No of times)=  8.37 times

Explanation:

<em>Inventory turnover days is the average length of time it takes a business to sell its inventory before replacement.</em>

Inventory turnover in days

= Average inventory /Cost of goods sold × 365 days

<em>Average inventory = (Opening Inventory + closing inventory)/2</em>

<em>Average inventory </em>

= (21,000 + 22,000)/2

= 21,500

<em>Inventory turnover in days</em>

(21,500/180,600) × 365 days

=43.597 days

Inventory turnover (No of times )

= Cost of goods sold/Average inventory

=  180,600/21,500

= 8.37 times
