Answer and Explanation:

The computation of two different depreciation schedules is shown below:-

a. Using the Double-declining balance method

Year            Equipment Cost      Depreciation rate     Amount

2005                $90,000                     50%                  $45,000

2006                $45,000                      50%                  $22,500

2007                $22,500                      50%                  $11,250

2008 No depreciation as it is lower that straight line method that is $22,500 also we took the double rate of 25% so we consider 50%

b. Using the straight line method

Straight Line Depreciation Method:

$100,000 - $10,000

= $90,000

Year            Equipment Cost      Depreciation rate      Amount

2005                $90,000                     25%                      $22,500

2006                $90,000                      25%                     $22,500

2007                $90,000                      25%                     $22,500

2008                $90,000                      25%                     $22,500

Depreciation rate is

= 1 ÷ 4 years

=  25

GDP is the sum of all final goods and services produced by an economy in a given period. In calculating GDP only the final goods and services that are traded are accounted for. Thus, household services that do not generate income are not accounted for in GDP, only productive activities. Therefore, in the long run the tendency is that the GDP analyzed by this issue will decrease, because when the unemployment rate increases, fewer workers will be employed in the productive sector. These people may substitute work for leisure or household chores, but this will not count in GDP.

If the span of management is wide, _______ levels are needed, and the organization is _______. If the span of management is narr
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

If the span of management is wide, <u>Fewer</u> levels are needed, and the organization is <u>Flat</u>. If the span of management is narrow, <u>More</u> levels are needed, and the resulting organization is <u>Tall</u>.

Explanation:

Span of control is the number of personals working under a single Designation.

If their are greater number of employees working under a single designation then the hierarchy chart is wider in length, that's the reason we also say that the organization is flat. Due to these increased number of employees working under single designation, there is lower number of levels in such organization. It is also one of the main reason the employees turnover is very high because there are fewer chances of promotion in flat organizations. The number of candidates for the promotion are higher in the organization.

On the other hand, if their are lower number of employees working under a single designation then the hierarchy chart is taller in length, that's the reason we also say that the organization is flat. Due to these lower number of employees working under single designation, there is higher number of levels required in such organizations. It is also one of the main reason the employees turnover is very low because there are higher chances of promotion in tall organizations. The number of candidates for the promotion are fewer in the organization.

The basic message of _____ is that potential world production is greater with unrestricted free trade than it is with restricted
antiseptic1488 [7]
Lets talk about all the terms. First of all, zero-sum game theory and rational choice theory are mathematical theories that are used to analyze financial phenomena. The first one is against this view and the second one is a general framework that does not say what its stance is; it is certainly not the basic message of rational choice theory. The mercantilist theory is a theory that favors trade restrictions, so this is not the right choice. THe theory of absolute and comparative advantage are related; the first one says that only a country can make a product in a good way, while the second theory claims that eeach country should specialize in what it is best at producing. The comparative advantage theory makes the case that if there are many goods, one should not need to bother to produce those which he is bad at producing; he should produce a surplus of his specialty and then trade with others (and their specialty products). Thus, comparative advantage is the correct choice.

Price Manufacturing assigns overhead based on machine hours. The Milling Department logs 1,800 machine hours and Cutting Departm
kifflom [539]

Answer and Explanation:

The Journal entry is shown below:-

Work in progress Dr, $24,000

        To Manufacturing Overhead $24,000

(Being the overhead assigned is recorded)

For recording this we debited the work in process as it increased the assets and credited the manufacturing overhead for assigning the overhead

Working note

Overhead amount = (Milling Department + Cutting department) × Overhead rate

= (1,800 + 3,000) × $5

= $4,800 × $5

= $24,000
