Answer:

a. $0.20

b. $322,000

Explanation:

Depreciation is the systematic allocation of the cost of an asset to the income statement over the estimated useful life of that asset.

It is determined as the depreciable value of the asset over the estimated useful life of the asset where the depreciable value is the difference between the cost and salvage value of the asset .

The amount of depreciation to be recognized for each mile that a rental automobile is driven

= ($15,000 - $6,000)/45,000

= $9,000/45,000

= $0.20

Total millage expected of the 60 cars before disposal

= 60 * 45,000 miles

= 2,700,000 miles

The total amount of depreciation expense that Central Auto Rentals should recognize on this fleet of cars for the year

= 1,610,000/2,700,000 * ($9,000 * 60)

= $322,000

The best time to establish reasonable controls is when they are first needed during the project.
VashaNatasha [74]

The best to establish reasonable control in the project is at the start of the project but not when they are first needed during the project.

As we can keep a control or keep some standards at initial stages but now when required. This would then provide best results rather than keeping controls when needed in the project to keep the time saved mostly.

Hence the statement is false.

lesantik [10]

Answer:

Total E&P = $ 160000

Total voting Right Sold = 50/ (100+100) = 25%

Reduction of E& P Lower of 40000 or (50*1000)

Reduction of E& P Lower of 40000 or 50000

A reduction of $40,000 in E&P because of the exchange.
