Depreciation calculation methods—partial year Freedom Co. purchased a new machine on July 2, 2013, at a total installed cost of

$44,000. The machine has an estimated life of five years and an estimated salvage value of $6,000.
a. Calculate the depreciation expense for each year of the asset’s life using:
1. Straight-line depreciation.
2. Double-declining-balance depreciation.
3. 150% declining-balance depreciation.

b. How much depreciation expense should be recorded by Freedom Co. for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, under each of the three methods? (Note: The machine will have been used for one-half of its first year of life.)
c. Calculate the accumulated depreciation and net book value of the machine at December 31, 2014, under each of the three methods.

Answer:

a.

1. $7,600

2. $17,600

3. $13,200

b.

1. $3,800

2. $8,800

3. $6,600

c.

1. $15200

2. $35,200

3. $26,400

Explanation:

1. Straight Line Depreciation Method

$44,000 - $6,000 / 5 years

= $7,600.

2. Double declining- balance Method

100% / 5 years = 20%

20% * 2 = 40%

$44,000 * 40% = $17,600

3. 150% declining- balance Method

150% / 5 years = 30%

$44,000 * 30% = $13,200

b. Because this is for 6 months only the depreciation expense calculated will be divided into 2

1. $7,600 / 2 = $3,800

2. $17,600 / 2 = $8,800

3. $13,200 / 2 = $6,600

c.

1. $7,600 * 2 = $15200

2. $17,600 * 2 = $35,200

3. $13,200 * 2 = $26,400

NET TOTAL COST 78,471,794.65  

or building 2 million units of capacity in each of the two loca-tions. Building two plants will incur an additional one-time cost of $2 million.

NET TOTAL COST = 76,051,964.50  

DECISION: The manufacturer should build 2 plants in 2 different locations because it gives a lower net present cost

<u>At what initial cost differential from building the two plants will the chemical manufacturer be indifferent between the two options?</u>

The difference in both options came from the fact that variable cost is lower in Europe and building the plant is more expensive. If there is no increase in cost and variable cost is same everywhere, then both options will be same.

IgorLugansk [536]

Matthew manages the sales team at an information technology (IT) firm. His focus is to conduct business in accordance with his firm's mission and vision, while making as much money as possible for the firm and conforming to the basic rules of the society. He ensures that his actions embody ethical custom. In this scenario, Matthew's view of corporate social responsibility is most likely rooted in the <u>Utilitarian </u>tradition.

Explanation:

Utilitarianism is a ethical theory which talks about the right and the wrong actions of an individual.This theory advocates that the action that brings happiness to the society and also increases the utility in the society as a whole is called a morally correct action.

This theory was proposed by Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill.

In simple words an action is termed as right if it promotes happiness in the society and is termed bad it it brings unhappiness in the society

So we can say that Matthew's view of corporate social responsibility is most likely rooted in the <u>Utilitarian </u>tradition.

DiskSan has to order flash transistors ($5 each) to create USB flash memory drives. Their monthly demand is 10,000 units, their
Bingel [31]

Answer

Economic order quantity will be 447.21

Explanation:

We have given monthly demand = 10000 units

We know that 1 year = 12 month

So Annual demand (D) = monthly demand × 12 months = 10000 × 12 = 120000 units

Cost of transistor = $5 per unit

Monthly Holding cost = 10% of cost = 10% of $5 = $0.50

So annual holding cost (H) = monthly holding cost × 12 = $0.50 × 12 = $6

Setup cost(S) = $5

We know that economic order quantity is given by

Economic order quantity = \sqrt{\frac{2DS}{H}}=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 12000\times 5}{6}}=447.21
