Answer:

a. $60,652

Explanation:

Gain of exchange of similar fixed assets cannot be recognized until new asset's cost is adjusted which will reflect the gain.

Book value = Cost - Accumulated depreciation = $22,535 - $20,282 = $2,253

Gain = Trade in Allowance - Book value = $5,605 - $2,253  = $3,352

Cost of new asset = Price of new asset - unrealized gain =  $60,652 - $3,352 = $57,300

$60,652 basis used with commercial substance

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

B) not transferable to other types of production and can only be used for the product in question

Explanation:

Specific factor of production is a factor of production that is majorly specific and relevant to a particular industry for production, and as such cannot be transferred or moved to another industry. For example, skilled workers in sericulture are specifically trained to serve as a labor factor of production in agriculture or agro-based industry, and would be difficult to be relevant in an automobile industry. Such skilled workers are immobile between both industries.

Darya [45]

Answer:

B) market lag

Explanation:

Every profession usually has an average remuneration price, which is considered the market price. Some companies seeking more skilled workers offer compensation above market salary, others, such as the low-cost company XYZ, offer salaries below market level. This strategy is called a market lead. Companies with market lead policies often have higher employee turnover, as finding a higher-paying job tends to change jobs.
