Answer: Option D

Explanation: Economic cost is the total cost a firm bears in the form of expenses incurred and opportunity cost incurred. Opportunity cost can be defined as the loss of profit for choosing one alternative over other.

In the given case salary and interest on certificate of deposit is the opportunity cost for Ellie.

so,

Economic cost = $80,000 + $15000 + $3000 + $1000 + $1200 + $35,000 + $500

                       = $135,700

Which of the following best explains why the taxes on discontinued operations are reported separately from taxes on continuing o
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

The statement that best explains why the taxes on discontinued operations are reported separately from taxes on continuing operations is:

The taxes on discontinued operations are not expected to recur in future years.

Explanation:

Discontinued operations refer to the cessation of some business activities or segments.  They are usually reported as a separate line item.  Therefore, all the gains and losses for that discontinued division must be reported separately on the company's income statement. The purpose is to distinguish them from those of continuing operations.

just olya [345]

Answer:  $‭322,000‬

Explanation:

Consolidated income = Net income from Ackerman + Net Income from Brannigan + Excess depreciation - Amortization of unpatented tech - Gain from transfer of equipment

Excess depreciation = New depreciation of equipment - Old depreciation

Depreciation is straight line;

= (200,000/5 years) - (110,000/5)

= $18,000

Gain from transfer of equipment

= Sales - Book value

= 200,000 - 110,000

= $90,000

Consolidated income = 300,000 + 98,000 + 18,000 - 4,000 - 90,000

= $‭322,000‬
