Answer and Explanation:
Albert cannot claim any loss during 2019.
The sale of the property is necessary to claim the loss of depreciation on any type of movable or immovable property. In the following case, Albert is not selling his property due to which he cannot claim any loss, hence Albert's current year's loss claim will be zero.
Answer: Production Method
Explanation: Gross domestic product, also known as GDP, calculates the total value of products and sevices that are produced in an economy. This in turn measures the total income of a country.
The method that applies in this scenario is the production method. This method focuses on goods, by looking at its final value after deducting the input costs, also known as intermediate goods. Input costs (or intermediate goods) are the cost of materials that were used to make the final product, i.e. the production costs. Once the input costs are deducted from the total value of the goods , what remains becomes the actual income of the goods, the final cost, which is then added to GDP.
Answer:
1. Calculate the first production department's equivalent units of production for materials and conversion for May.
- materials = 275,000 + 50,000 = 325,000
- conversion = 275,000 + 12,500 = 287,500
2. Compute the first production department's cost per equivalent unit for materials and conversion for May.
- materials = $169,000 / 325,000 = $0.52
- conversion = $253,000 / 287,500 = $0.88
3. Compute the first production department's cost of ending work in process inventory for materials, conversion, and in total for May.
- materials = 50,000 x $0.52 = $26,000
- conversion = 12,500 x $0.88 = $11,000
- total = $37,000
4. Compute the first production department's cost of the units transferred to the next production department for materials, conversion, and in total for May.
- materials = 275,000 x $0.52 = $143,000
- conversion = 275,000 x $0.88 = $242,000
- total = $385,000
Explanation:
Beginning WIP 70,000 units
materials $56,100
conversion $16,400
Ending WIP 50,000 units
100% completed for materials (50,000 EU)
25% completed for conversion (12,500 EU)
units started 255,000
total units transferred out 275,000
materials cost added during the period = $112,900
conversion cost added during the period = $236,600
Answer:
Higher prices with same sales quantity will mean greater profit.
Explanation:
Let's hold some variables constant. If a business sells books, and they take the prices up, if they sell the same quantity (at higher prices) this would increase revenues. Higher revenues, less the same cost structure (variable and fixed costs) will lead to a greater profit generation. Of course in the real world, price elasticity of demand comes in play when prices are changed. If prices go up, typically sales quantity will decrease and there may be a net effect in revenue and hence profit. In the simple case where prices go up and sales quantity is unaffected, net profit will rise.
Answer:
$2,850
Explanation:
Given the following :
Face value of security = $100,000
Carrying value = $95,000
Effective interest rate = 6%
Interest paid semianually = $2500
The effective interest revenue recognized for the six months ended December 31, 2018 is:
IF effective interest rate = 6%
Semiannual interest = 6% / 2 = 3%
Therefore effective interest revenue for six months will be the product of the carrying value and the interest rate within the six months period :
3% = 0.03
0.03 * $95,000 = $2,850
