Answer:

11.24%

Explanation:

Fisher equation:

(1 + nominal interest rate) = (1 + real interest rate) x (1 + expected annual inflation)

The asset's book value is $70,000 on June 1, Year 3. On that date, management determines that the asset's salvage value should b
aniked [119]

Answer:

The correct answer is C that is $4,062.50

Explanation:

The depreciation expense is computed as:

Depreciation expense = Book Value of asset - Salvage Value / Number of years × 6/ 12

where

Book value is $70,000

Salvage value is $5,000

Number of years is 8 because it is Year 3

Number of months is 6 months

= $70,000 - $5,000/ 8 × 6/ 12

= $65,000 / 8 × 6/ 12

= $8,125 × 6/ 12

= $4,062.50

Elena L [17]

Answer:

Acclaim Inc.

                                         Basic Trophies     Deluxe Trophies

Budgeted unit cost:

a. using single-plant o/h rate   $17.60                  $28.80

b. using departmental rates    $17.42                  $29.16

c. using ABC                            $18.26                  $27.48

d. They show different costs because the overhead rates are based on different parameters.

I recommend ABC system.  It is more fair because the overhead rates are based on product line's activity usage instead of an arbitrary figure.
