The sahara company purchased equipment on january 1, 2015, for $100,000. the equipment had an estimated residual value of $10,00

vaieri [72.5K]

The company used straight line depreciation based on number of units produced. This can be shown as follows:

Cost = $100,000
Life = 5 years or 18,000 units
Salvage value = $10,000

By straight line method;
Depreciation cost per unit = (100,000-10,000)/18,000 = $5

After producing 4,400 units, depreciation expense = 4,400*5 = $22,000.

NemiM [27]

Answer:

the easiest way to determine how much money Matt is going to save is by using the future value annuity factor. Using a future value annuity table, we must look for the value that correspond to 5% interest and 10 periods = 13.181

Now we multiply our annuity factor times the amount of money that Matt saves every 6 months = $1,400 x 13.181 = $18,453.40

When Matt graduates from college he should have saved $18,453.40.

Yes. Companies should be protected by tariffs.. why?

Reptile [31]

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

A tariff is a tax that the government imposes on either the imports or the exports of products or sevices.

Apart from the fact that tariff is a way of generating revenue by the government, tariffs help protect the domestic industry. This is because tariffs increases the price of imported goods.

Since there is an increase in the price of the imports, consumers tend to buy from the local manufacturer since their products tend to be cheaper when compared to the imports. This gives an edge to the domestic companies.
