Note: <em>The options attached belongs to another question, so the answer is not included</em>
Premium liability at December 31, 2020 = ((510,000*60%) - $130,000) / 8*3
Premium liability at December 31, 2020 = 176,000 / 24
Premium liability at December 31, 2020 = 7,333.33
Premium liability at December 31, 2021 = 7333.33 + ((600000*60%) - 150000) / 8*3
Premium liability at December 31, 2021 = 7333.33 + 360,000 - 150,000
Premium liability at December 31, 2021 = 217,333.33
Answer:
B. Depletion will be $950,000 during 2018
Explanation:
Cost $10,000,000
Residual Value ($500,000)
Cost to be depleted $9,500,000
No. of Carats to be extracted over the life of mine 500,000
Per carat depletion (9,500,000/500,000) $19
Depletion for the year 2018 $19*50,000=$950,000
This will be deducted from revenue as depletion for the year.So option B is correct.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached we can say the following.
Why do businesses take financial costs into account other than social costs when making decisions.?
The reason why is because businesses are created to make profits. And financial costs directly impact sales, revenue, and profits. Any other consideration that does not directly affect the balance sheet or the bottom line, is not considered a priority and takes the back seat when business decisions are made.
On the other hand, the social cost should be important and it is, but not as important as the financial costs for the above-mentioned reasons.
Social costs are more on the side of the ethics of the managers or leaders of the organizations. And ethics and moral values are not a prominent thing to be considered in the decision-making process of modern corporations.
Answer:
$9,600
Explanation:
Annual Depreciation = Cost – Residual Value/Useful Life
Using the formula
Cost=$57,000
Residual value =$9,000
Useful life =5years
Hence:
$57,000 – $9,000/5
=$48,000/5
= $9,600
The second-year depreciation will therefore be $9,600
