Answer:
Correct answer is letter D, $11,000 cost, five-year life and $1,000 salvage value
Explanation:
To compute depreciation expense of an asset using straight-line method of depreciation, the information we needed is 3,
1. cost of an asset
2. life of an asset (in year)
3. residual value (if available)
<em>* residual value of an asset is to be determined by the company, some asset don't have scrap value assigned.</em>
<em />
<em>FORMULA </em>
<em>The difference between the cost of an asset and the expected residual value over the number of years it is expected to be useful.</em>
<em>(cost of an asset - residual value ) / life of an asset</em>
Answer:
B. False
Explanation:
Land held for possible plant expansion would NOT be included as an operating asset when computing return on investment (ROI).
Return on investment (ROI) is used to measure the profitability of an investment. It helps to compare the gain or loss from an investment in relation to its cost.
Return on investment can be used to determine
1. Profitability of a stock investment,
2. Profitability of the purchase of a business investment
3. Profitability of a real estate business
ROI = Net return / cost of investment × 100
Net return= Final value of investment - initial value of the investment
Answer:
Sample size is 16
Mean 4
Standard deviation of the sample is 0.3.
Explanation
The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean
and standard deviation
, a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean
and standard deviation
.
In this problem, we have that:
The population has a mean of four hours, with a standard deviation of 1.2 hours. The sample is the 16 of the employees.
So
The sample size is 16, so 
The mean of the sample is the same as the population mean, so
.
The standard deviation of the sample is
