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

David saves money from his teaching job to buy a new boat when he retires in 20 years. The boat will cost $30,000. He has $12,00
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Invest at a minimum of 7.5% annual simple interest

Explanation:

Given the goal of purchasing a boat that will cost $30,000 in 20 years, David needs to earn an interest computed below on his investment in the savings account.

Interest required = 30,000 - 12,000

= 18,000

Therefore the minimum rate of interest that will achieve this goal,

= Principal * rate * time = target amount

= 12,000 * R * 20 years = 18,000

= R = 18,000/(12,000*20) = 0.075 = 7.5%.

In addition, David could also continue his saving from his teaching job. This will reduce the minimum investment return required to achieve the goal.

Suppose the interest on a foreign government bonds is 7.5%, and the current exchange rate is 28 foreign currencies per dollar. I
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

implied credit spread =  1.13 %

Explanation:

given data

interest on foreign government bonds = 7.5%

current exchange rate = 28

forward exchange rate = 28.5

risk-free rate = 4.5%

solution

we get here risk free rate by the forward exchange rate that is

F = spot exchange rate × \frac{1+Rr}{1+Rs}   ....................1

put here value

28.5 = 28 ×  \frac{1+Rr}{1+0.045}  

solve it we get

Rr = 0.0637

Rr = 6.37%

so

implied credit spread = interest on foreign government bonds - risk free rate

implied credit spread = 7.5% - 6.37%

implied credit spread =  1.13 %
