3rd January
Dr Machinery $4,000
Cr Cash $4,000
(to capitalized the cost of wire electricity and installation to put the purchased machine in a ready-to-use stage).
Explanation:
- According to the information, all the expenses relating to the purchase of used machine are in cash. Thus, Cash is credited at the total amount of $182,000, in which $178,000 is credited in 2nd January to record the purchased price and the other $4,000 (2,840 + 1,160) is credited in 3rd January.
- Under GAAP, the recorded costs of a purchased fixed asset should included all the costs incurred which are necessary to bring the fixed asset to a ready-to-use stage. As wire electricity cost & cost for securing the machine in its position are all necessary for the machine's operation, these costs should be capitalized.

Answer:
d. a $10,000 decrease.
Explanation:
The computation of the impact on the income is given below:
In case of making the product
= Direct material + direct labor + variable manufacturing overhead + rented
= $100,000 + $160,000 + $60,000 + $10,000
= $330,000
And, in case of buying the product
= 20,000 × $17
= $340,000
So there is a decrease of $10,000

Explanation:
Unemployment rate is the fraction of the labour force that are unemployed but are actively looking for work
Types of unemployment include:
Frictional unemployment : it is the period of time a person is unemployed from the period he leaves his current job and the time he gets another job. The 300 unemployed people are frictionally unemployed
structural unemployment : it occurs as a result of changes in the economy. These changes can be as a result of changes in technology, polices or competition . Structural unemployment tends to be permanent. The 420 unemployed people are structurally unemployed
Voluntary unemployment : e.g. worker at a fast-food restaurant who quits work and attends college.
Cyclical unemployment : occurs as a result of fluctuations in the economy
Frictional unemployment = (total frictional unemployed people / total labour force ) x 100
(300 / 6000) x 100 = 5%
Total unemployment rate = (total frictional unemployed people + total structural unemployed individuals / total labour force ) x 100
[(300 + 420) / 6000] x 100 = 12%
