Answer: Company's net capital spending for 2016 = $702,000
Explanation:
Given that,
On December 31, 2015:
Net fixed assets = $1,780,000
On December 31, 2016:
Net fixed assets = $2,150,000
Depreciation expense = $332,000
Therefore,
Company's net capital spending for 2016:
= Ending net assets + Depreciation expense - Beginning net assets
= $2,150,000 + $332,000 - $1,780,000
= $702,000
<span>Breached.
Explanation: A contract is a legally binding agreement between two parties. Once an agreement is signed between two parties, both parties are subject to terms and conditions written in the agreement.
As in the above example, Flora agrees to sell harvesters grocery a minimum quantity of fresh fruits and vegetables every week for three months, that means Flora is subject to the agreement that she will sell that no matter what the future market price will be, whether it increases or decreases. As Flora decides not to deliver the agreed order, it is a violation of terms and conditions of the agreement/contract. So the contract is breached.</span>
Answer:
$0.316 trillion per annum
Explanation
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
Interest rate = 0.5% = 0.005
Government Borrows = $6 trillion
Time = 20 years
Required Uniform Annual Payment= Government Borrows × Interest Rate × [(1 + Interest Rate)^Time period ÷ (1 + Interest Rate)Time period] - 1
= $6 trillion × 0.005 × [(1 + 0.005)^20 ÷ (1 + 0.005)^20 - 1]
= $0.03 trillion × [(1.005)^20 ÷ (1.005)^20 - 1]
= $0.03 trillion × (1.1049 ÷ 1.1049 - 1)
= $0.03 trillion × (1.1049 ÷ 0.1049)
= $0.03 trillion × 10.533
= $0.316 trillion per annum
