Answer:

Tax is a statutory obligation to pay an amount to the state or other public body, which is imposed on a person or company on the basis of their activities, without a direct connection to consideration from the payee. The main purpose is usually to finance the public sector. The tax can also have other purposes, such as equalizing income or influencing people's actions with the help of financial incentives.

hodyreva [135]

Answer: $8.00

Explanation:

Details missing in question are:

These costs are for 50,000 units.

$250,000 is manufacturing cost. $100,000 is administrative cost.

The total manufacturing cost is shown to be $250,000 above.

A profit of $50,000 is needed in addition to this cost as well as the administrative cost of $100,000.

Total revenue expected is therefore:

= 250,000 + 100,000 + 50,000

= $400,000

50,000 units are to be sold so to make a revenue of $400,000, each unit should be sold for:

= 400,000 / 50,000

= $8.00

A state government reported a $9,000 increase in net position in the motor pool internal service fund, a $12,000 increase in net

Anastaziya [24]

Answer: $12,000

Explanation:

Only the $12,000 will be reported in Statement of Activities ( the financial statement used to report revenues and expenses for governmental and business-type activities) as a change in net position for business-type activities.

Why?

The Water Entreprise Fund is the only listed fund type listed that would fall under BUSINESS TYPE because it is an ENTREPRISE Fund. The Motor Pool Internal Service falls under GOVERNMENT ACTIVITIES and the Pension Find is only displayed in the Fund Financial Statements.

Because the Water Entreprise Fund is the only fund here concerned with BUSINESS TYPE activities, it's rise by $12,000 is what will be reported as the Net Change.

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

Given

Cost $46000

Life= 5 years

Salvage Value= $ 4000

Total miles = 165,000

Formula

Depreciation Straight Line Method= Cost - Salvage Value/ Useful Life

Straight Line Rate= 100%/ useful Life= 100%/5 = 20%

Double Declining Method = 2 * Straight Line Rate

Double Declining Method = 2 * Straight Line Rate= 2*20%= 40%

1. Depreciation Straight Line Method= Cost - Salvage Value/ Useful Life

Depreciation Straight Line Method= $ 46000- $4000/ 5= $ 8,400

The depreciation expense using the straight line method does not change unless the salvage value is reached

Years Depreciation Accumulated Dep Book Value

(Cost - Accu. Dep)

a. 2021 $ 8,4000 8400 37600

b. 2022 $ 8,4000 16,800 29,200

c. 2023 $ 8,4000 25200 20,800

d. 2024 $ 8,4000 33,600 12,400

e. 2025 $ 8,4000 42000 4000

2. Straight Line Rate= 100%/ useful Life= 100%/5 = 20%

Double Declining Method = 2 * Straight Line Rate

Double Declining Method = 2 * Straight Line Rate= 2*20%= 40%

In double declining method the rate is multiplied to the cost to get the depreciation expense. 40 % of $ 46000= $ 18400

Each year the rate is multiplied with the remaining book value after deducting the depreciation expense from the cost as $ 46000- $ 18400= $ 27600

Next years depreciation will be $ 27600 * 40%= $ 11040.

This will be added in the original depreciation expense $ 18400 + $ 11040 = $ 29440 and deducted from cost to get the book value. $ 46,000- $ 29440 = $ 16560.

Again rate will be multiplied and each years depreciation will be calculated similarly.

It has been summarized in the table below.

Years Dep Rate Dep Expense Accu. Dep. Book Value

a. 2021 40% 18400 18400 27600

b. 2022 40% 11040 29440 16560

c. 2023 40% 6624 36064 9936

d. 2024 40% 3974.4 40,038.4 5961.6

e. 2025 40% 2384.64 42,0423.4 3576.96

3. Depreciation per unit= (Cost -Salvage value) / Total units of production* Units of Production

a. 2021 35,000 ($ 42000/165000)*35000 8909.09

c. 2023 28,000 ($ 42000/165000)*28000 7127.27

d. 2024 33,000 ($ 42000/165000)*33000 8400

e. 2025 34,000 ($ 42000/165000)*34000 8654.54
