Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

Explanation:

Depreciation in 2017:

=\frac{Original\ cost-Salvage\ value}{Useful\ life}\times time\ period

=\frac{50,000-8,000}{6}\times\frac{3}{12}

      = $1,750

Accumulated Depreciation = $29,400 + Depreciation in 2017

                                             =  $29,400 +  $1,750

                                             =  $31,150

Book value on date of sale = Original cost - Accumulated Depreciation

                                             = 50,000 - 31,150  

                                              = 18,850

Loss on sale = Book value on date of sale - Sales price

                     = 18,850 - 18,000

                     = $850 (Loss)

Answer:The answer is $2,600 loss

Explanation:

Cost - Salvage value /useful life

Cost = $50,000

Salvage value =$8,000

Useful life = 6years

50,000- 8,000/6

=42,000/6

= 7,000

Yearly depreciation will be $7,000

Since the accumulated depreciation had a balance of $29,400 on December 31,2016

Net Book value = Original cost - Accumulated depreciation

= 50,000 - 29,400

= 20,600

The disposal of equipment Account will be in T account as follows

Disposal of Equipment Account

Dr: Equipment cost $50,000

Cr: Provision for depreciation $29,400

Cr: Sale Proceed $18,000

Cr: profit & loss $2,600

Balance Dr: $50,000 Balance Cr: $50,000

Since the debit side of the equipment account is greater than credit side of the equipment account The company made a loss on the sale of the equipment of $2,600

What is the key to making extemporaneous speech sound professional and natural
Usimov [2.4K]
Well mainly extemporaneous speeches can be hard,  finding the right words without advanced notice may not be for every speaker. But trust me! No need to worry..... :) The extemporaneous speech is a perfect balance!!!!! This speech involves the speaker's use of notes and some embellishment to deliver a speech. To clear this up, a speaker who uses this method would have note cards or prompts that guide him from point to point, but he uses his own words as he goes along. What makes this different than an impromptu speech is that he has a loose guideline for his speech. He did not memorize anything....... he just used cues to know where to go next.
There are advantages but there are disadvantages to this type of speech sadly..... :(  For one, the audience will think you are a genius. You used few notes and appeared to know everything about the topic. But this is not something that can be done quickly. The same fact finding and research used for other types of speeches must be used here. The speaker also must rehearse this speech for timing, rhythm and flow. Now, if shooting from the hip is not your style, you may want to consider reading your speech!!!! :) But ya. I hope this is better. XD sorry about that.

. Discuss and Implement the Price Adjustment Strategies in current market. Apply each strategy with 3 examples along with pictur
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

There are many different price adjustment strategies which can be implemented in the current market.

Explanation:

Psychological pricing:

Psychological pricing is a strategy in which the price of a product is displayed with mostly one cent difference so the whole number shown is less by $1 and this difference can get higher if the price of the product is more.

Example 1: The price for a toy in a toy shop is $4.99, if rounded this will be $5 but the whole number visible is $4.

Example 2: The price of a laptop is $193, this again is nearly $200 but the price is reduced by $7 in order to influence their customers into buying the product.

Example 3: The price of a car is $35,995, this again is about $36,000 but the buyer may be influenced by this technique and result in purchasing the product with such price.

Geographical Pricing:

Geographical pricing is a strategy where different prices are charged in different outlets, this strategy is made keeping in mind the purchasing power of the locality, if the local people can pay higher price for a product then the price is high there but same product may have a lower price in an area where people can not pay high price.

Example 1: Price of a T-shirt is $15 in a posh area while the price of the same T-shirt is $5 in an area with poor locality.

Example 2: Price of a hair brush is $10 in a poor area while the same brush is available in a posh area at a rate of $35.

Example 3: Price for a food item is $6 in a restaurant in posh area while the same burger is available for $3 in a restaurant in a poor area.
