Answer: D. $10 Billion

Explanation:

The United States has a large economy with a very large number of cars which was estimated to be around 280 million in the last quarter of 2019. With these many cars it would be improbable that there would not be quite a number of accidents and there are. In the year 2018, around 12 million cars were involved in motor accidents.

With such a staggeringly high number of cars involved in collisions, it is no wonder that it is estimated that the collision repair industry does around $10 billion worth of business every year.

Apex Fitness Club uses straight-line depreciation for a machine costing $23,860, with an estimated four-year life and a $2,400 s

maria [59]

Answer:

1. Book value at end of year 2 = $13,130

2. Depreciation from year 3 for last 3 years = $3,710 each year, that is $11,130 for three years.

Explanation:

As for the provided details, we have:

Cost of machinery = $23,860

Expected life = 4 years

Salvage value = $2,400

Straight line depreciation = $\frac{23,860 - 2,400}{4} = 5,365$

Under straight line method depreciation remains constant for life of asset.

Book value at end of year 2 = $23,860 - ($5,365 $\times$ 2) = $13,130

Thereafter in the beginning of year 3 the estimate is made to realize that the total remaining life expected is 3 years, with salvage value $2,000

Thus, depreciation from year 3 = $\frac{13,130 - 2,000}{3} = 3,710$

Therefore, depreciation from year 3 to year 5 = $3,710 each year.

Total depreciation of last 3 years = $3,710 $\times$ 3 = $11,130

tangare [24]

Answer:

Variable cost per unit= $1.4 per unit

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Miles Driven Total Cost Miles Driven Total Cost

January: 8,000 $14,120

March: 8,550 $14,979

February: 7,490 $13,495

April: 8,195 $14,490

To calculate the variable cost under the high-low method, we need to use the following formula:

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (14,979 - 13,495) / (8,550 - 7,490)

Variable cost per unit= $1.4 per unit
