I believe outsourcing is a highly contested idea because people would rather have the products they use produced in their country. I think outsourcing is a good idea because production of a product might be cheaper in another country but sometimes that means a less of quality product.

Marks Consulting purchased equipment costing $45,000 on January 1, Year 1. The equipment is estimated to have a salvage value of
Tasya [4]

Answer:

B) Debit to accumulated depreciation for $22,500.

Explanation:

As for the information provided,

Depreciation under straight line method for each year = ($45,000 - $5,000)/8 = $5,000 for each year.

Depreciation for 4 years = $5,000 \times 4 = $20,000

Depreciation in 5th year for 6 months = $5,000/2 = $2,500

Total depreciation till 1 July Year 5 = $20,000 + $2,500 = $22,500

Carrying value of equipment in books as on date of sale = $45,000 - $22,500 = $22,500

Sale price = $20,000

Profit or loss on sale of equipment = $20,000 - $22,500 = - $2,500

So therefore, there is loss of $2,500

Thus, option c and option d are invalid.

Further cash received on sale is debited and not credited thus, option a is also invalid.

As the total accumulated depreciation = $22,500

The correct entry will include debit to accumulated depreciation of $22,500.

Thus, option b is correct.

What is a target audience and why is it important to consider when creating a multimedia presentation?
ss7ja [257]

A target audience is the group that you are trying to attract. It is important to have one for your multimedia presentation because it is impossible to appeal to all groups, so you must narrow down who you are trying to reach.

A target audience is the group or demographic that you are aiming the multimedia presentation at. A target audience may include things like a specific gender, age group, marital status or income level.

A target audience is important when creating a multimedia presentation because you want to attract attention, but it is impossible to attract everyone’s attention. You need to include features that will appeal to your target audience. These features may include photos, music or topics that will appeal to a particular group.

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Discounted payback period shall be as follows:

a. 1 year 7.36 months

b. 2 years 3.27 months

c. 3 years 2.9 months

Explanation:

a. Payback period in case of cash outflow = $5,700

For calculating the pay back period we shall firstly discount the cash flows to present value @14 %.

Year         Cash Flow         PV Factor           PV of Cash Flow       Cumulative

                                                                                                            Cash Flow

0                 -  $5,700            1                             - $5,700                    -5,700

1                     $4,400         0.877                         $3,858.8                -$1,841.2

2                    $3,900         0.770                         $3,003                    $1,161.8

Since the cumulative cash flows are positive in 2nd year payback period =

1 + \frac{1,841.2}{3,003} \times 12 = 1 year and 7.36 months

b. Payback period in case of cash outflow = $7,800

For calculating the pay back period we shall firstly discount the cash flows to present value @14 %.

Year         Cash Flow         PV Factor           PV of Cash Flow       Cumulative

                                                                                                            Cash Flow

0                 -  $7,800            1                             - $7,800                    -7,800

1                     $4,400         0.877                         $3,858.8                -$3,941.2

2                    $3,900         0.770                         $3,003                    -$938.2

3                    $5,100          0.675                         $3,442.5                  $2,504.3

Since the cumulative cash flows are positive in 3rd year payback period =

2 + \frac{938.2}{3,442.5} \times 12 = 2 years and 3.27 months

b. Payback period in case of cash outflow = $10,800

For calculating the pay back period we shall firstly discount the cash flows to present value @14 %.

Year         Cash Flow         PV Factor           PV of Cash Flow       Cumulative

                                                                                                            Cash Flow

0               -  $10,800            1                          - $10,800                   -$10,800

1                   $4,400         0.877                         $3,858.8                 -$6,941.2

2                  $3,900         0.770                         $3,003                    -$3,938.2

3                  $5,100          0.675                         $3,442.5                   -$495.7

4                  $4,300          0.592                        $2,545.6                   $2,049.9

Since the cumulative cash flows are positive in 4th year payback period =

3 + \frac{495.7}{2,049.9} \times 12 = 3 years and 2.9 months

Final Answer

Discounted payback period shall be as follows:

a. 1 year 7.36 months

b. 2 years 3.27 months

c. 3 years 2.9 months
