Answer:
Tim's business should have 50 sales person

Number of customers = 1,000 customers
Call frequesncy to each = 50 times
Average Length of call = 2 hours
Average sales persons time = 2,000 hours per year

Total Time = 1,000 x 2 x 50 = 100,000 hours per year
Number of Sales people required = Total time / Average time per sales person = 100,000 / 2,000 = 50 sales person

The goodwill is $9,220
Explanation:
Goodwill is the excess of purchase consideration paid to acquire a business over the fair value of net assets acquired.
Fair value of net assets acquired is the difference between the fair of assets acquired over the fair value of liabilities taken up which is shown below.
Net assets=$89,600-$14,800
Net assets =$74,800
Since purchase consideration paid is $84020
Goodwill=$84,020-$74800
Goodwill=$9,220
The goodwill of $9220 represents the premium paid over the net assets of Catteman's Steakhouse as a compensation to the owners of the business in return for their efforts of running the business and see go through different phases of development since the establishment of the business.
As long as the marginal benefits are higher than the marginal costs you are better off continuing the activity.
Consider the example of eating pizza. Each slice of pizza gives you happiness and helps fill you up (marginal benefit), but each slice also has lots of calories and fat (marginal cost). As long as you are still hungry and getting enjoyment from eating, you should keep eating. But once you reach the point where you are too full then you should stop, because the costs now outweigh the benefits.

Explanation:
<u>Calculation of cost of land acquired</u>
For the purpose of recording of land acquired in the books of accounts, the accounting values of consideration paid shall be considered as per the generally accepted accounting principles as well as as per International accounting standard (IAS) - 16 'Property, plant and equipment'. Hence the land shall be recorded as per the following amounts:
Consideration paid in cash (A) = $ 5,000
Consideration in kind (land) (B) = $ 90,000 (Refer Note 1)
Total cost of new land (A+B) = $ 95,000
<em>Note 1</em>
Fair value is irrelevant for the purpose of capitalization of asset (IAS-16)
<u>Calculation of Gain/loss on disposal of land</u>
No gain/loss needs to be recorded as the new asset shall be recorded in terms of the book value of old asset (i.e. net impact is already taken into account during the exchange transaction)
