Answer:

$4872

Explanation:

Given: Purchase price of an office building= $220000.

           Out of cost building, $30000 was allocated to the land.

Remember, As per current US Tax code, commercial building can be depreciated over 39-year straight-line for commercial property.

Now, calculating the current year depreciation deduction.

We know, land is not depreciable.

∴ Cost of building= Purchase\ price\ of\ building - cost\ of\ land

⇒ Cost of building= \$ 220000 - \$ 30000

∴ Cost of building= \$ 190000

Next calculating depreciation using straight line method ignoring salvage value.

Depreciation deduction= \frac{\$ 190000}{39}

∴ Depreciation deduction= \$ 4872

Hence, The corporation's current year depreciation deduction for the building is $4872

dolphi86 [110]

Contribution for Standard is $30 per unit and Supreme is $60 per unit, Thus if Fixed expenses are first divided between the two products on the basis of Contribution per unit, It can be calculated as below:

Fixed Expense Bifurcated on basis of Contribution per unit= 30:60

Which Comes to 1:2

Thus it will be bifurcated as $1200000 for Supreme and $600000 for Standard

Thus for Standard to break even it Requires to Sell the below no of units:

Break Even Point in units=\frac{Fixed Expense}{Contribution per unit}

Break Even Point in units=\frac{600000}{30}

Break even points in units=20000 units

Which describes risk aversion?
Savatey [412]
Risk aversion is the behavior in someone when they are exposed to uncertainty and are unsure of something due to being uncertain about it.  

In this case, reluctant for taking changes when making investment best describes risk aversion from an economics stand point. If someone isn't sure the return on investment they would get from investing or the risks associated with investing in something, they are more hesitant to do that.
