Answer:

$2,000

Explanation:

where the cost of the delivery truck is $28,000 and a useful life of 5 years with a salvage value of $3,000,

Annual Depreciation = \frac{28000-3000}{5000}

= \frac{25000}{5}

= 5000

Therefore,

After year 1 which is by January 1st, 2019

Net book value of the truck = $28,000 - $5,000

                                              = $23,000

After year 2 which is by January 1st, 2020

Net book value of the truck = $23,000 - $5,000

                                              = $18,000

After year 3 which is by January 1st, 2021

Net book value of the truck = $18,000 - $5,000

                                              = $13,000

After year 4 which is by January 1st, 2022

Net book value of the truck = $13,000 - $5,000

                                              = $8,000

If the useful life of the asset is extended to 7 years from 5 years, the number of years remaining for the asset as at January 1st, 2022 would be extended from 1 year to 3 years.

Therefore, where the residual value is $2,000

Depreciation per year for the remaining 3 years

=   (8000 - 2000)/3

= 6000/3

= 2000

Popular Company would report $ 2,000 as depreciation expense for the year ended December 31st, 2022.

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Weight w1 = 0.65

Weight w2 = 0.35

Expected return =10.75%

Explanation:

w1 + w2 = 1 ........... (1)

w1 = SD of asset 2/(SD of asset 1 + SD of asset 2)

w1 = 11 ÷ (6 + 11) ⇒ 0.65

∴ w2 = 1 - w1 ⇒ 1 - 0.65

w2 = 0.35

Expected return = Weighted average

[0.65 × 9] + [0.35 × 14] ⇒ 10.75%
