Initial price = $0.88 (Jan. 1980)
Final price = $2.11 (Jan. 2015)

Change in price = $2.11 - $0.88 = $1.23
Percentage rise in price = 100(1.23/0.88) = 139.8% ≈ 140%
The average yearly rise in price = 139.8/(2015-1980) ≈ 4%

Answer:
Total percent rise in price = 140%
Average yearly rise in price = 4%

For each of the following errors, considered individually, indicate whether the error would cause the adjusted trial balance tot
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

a) The debit  and credit side of the unadjusted trial balance would be increased by $ 5200.

b) The debit side would remain unchanged. No effect will be seen  in the adjusted trial balance.

Explanation:

Effect of adjustments on adjusted Trial Balance.

This first entry would increase the wages expense and increase the liability account in the adjusted trial balance. Both debit and credit side would be increased by an equal amount.

b) This would decrease the Supplies account and increase the supplies expense in the unadjusted account. As both are on the debit side there would be no effect in the debit total.

Sr No                Account                    Debit          Credit

<u>Original Entries</u>

a.               Wages Expense            5200

                      Accounts Payable                         5200

b.             Supplies Expense          1125

                        Supplies Account                          1125

<u>Correct Entries</u>

a.                  Wages Expense          5200

                          Accrued Wages Account Payable       5200

b.             Supplies Expense          1125

                        Supplies Account                          1125

<u>Difference:</u>

<u>a)</u> We see that the first entry which was original passed the debit side is correct but the credit side would have been of accrued wages instead of accounts payable . This is to raise the amount by which wages are still outstanding by an amount 5200 at the end of the month.

This would decrease the accounts payable increase the wages payable . If the adjustment is not made it the salaries payable is understated .

<u>b)This adjusting entry is correct.</u>

a building rents for $32 per square foot with an index of 1.6. the index increases to 1.9. what is the adjusted rental rate?
soldi70 [24.7K]

The adjusted rental rate is $41.60.

<h3>What is the adjusted rental rate?</h3>

Price index measure the relative change in prices relative to a base year. Changes in indexes give a measure of inflation in the economy. The rental rate would be adjusted for inflation.

Inflation is when the general price level in an economy increases. Inflation can be as a result of an increase in the demand for goods and services or an increase in the cost of production.

The adjusted rental rate can be determined by first calculating the inflation rate and then increasing the rent for the calculated inflation rate.

Inflation rate = 1.9 - 1.6 = 0.3 = 30%

The adjusted rental rate = (1.3) X $32 = $41.60

.) A currency dealer has good credit and can borrow either $1,000,000 or €800,000 for one year. The one-year interest rate in th
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The question does not fit the options, since the options all refer to a 2% interest rate in US dollars and a 6% interest rate in euros. While the question states that the interest rate in US dollars is 5% and the interest rate in euros is 4%.

The answer to the question is:

If you borrow $1,000,000 today, you will be able to purchase 800,000€. Or if you borrow 800,000€ today, you will be able to purchase $1,000,000.

Since the forward rate is higher, you should borrow dollars, invest in euros and after a year, purchase back dollars and pay back your debt.

Gain:

= 800,000€ x 1.04 = 832,000€ x 1.4 = $1,164,800, then you pay back your loan = $1,164,800 - ($1,000,000 x 1.05) = $1,164,800 - $1,050,000 = $114,800 gain

Options C will also yield gains:

option C = borrow 800,000€ and buy $1,000,000. After one year you will have $1,020,000 which you can use to purchase 850,000€. Your gain = 850,000€ - (800,000€ x 1.06) = 2,000€

A machine cost $1,238,000 on April 1, 2020. Its estimated salvage value is $139,200 and its expected life is 4 years. Calculate
natulia [17]

Answer:

  • The depreciation expense by straight-line for 2020: $206,025
  • The depreciation expense by double-declining balance for 2021: $619,000
  • The depreciation expense by sum-of-the-years'-digits for 2021: $329,640

Explanation:

Under straight-line method, depreciation expense is (cost - residual value) / No of years = ($1,238,000 - $139,200) / 4 years = $274,700 yearly depreciation expense.

Depreciation expense by straight-line for 2020 will be (April 1, 2020 - Dec. 31, 2020):  $274,700 / 12 x 9 = $206,025.

The double-declining method is otherwise known as the reducing balance method and is given by the formula below:  

Double declining method = 2 X SLDP X BV

SLDP = straight-line depreciation percentage

BV = Book value

SLDP is 100%/4 years = 25%, then 25% multiplied by 2 to give 50% or simply 1/2

Depreciation expense under double-declining method at December 31, 2021: $1,238,000 x 1/2 = $619,000

Under the sum-of-the-years'-digits, the depreciation expense for 2021 will be calculated as follows: 3 / 10 = 30%.

10 was derived by 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 for Year 2020, 2021, etc

($1,238,000 - $139,200) x 30% = $329,640
