D. They are both types of civil law
Answer:
The correct answer would be option D, Legal Market for a market price that is lower.
Explanation:
If there is a store which sells the goods at the market price even though the government authorities have set the minimum price that can be charged, it means store is selling the product at a price which is higher than the minimum price set by the government, but it doesn't mean that the store owner is doing any illegal trading. This is because the government has set the lower price limit but that ceiling price is non binding. It is not necessary for the market sellers to sell at the price given by government. So they are operating in a legal market for a market price that is lower.
Answer:
Gain on disposal = $7600
Explanation:
As the machine is sold on 1 April 2024, we first need to update the depreciation expense and charge the depreciation to the date. The depreciation has been charged till 1 December 2023. So, we need to charge the depreciation for three more months.
The formula for depreciation expense under straight line method is,
Depreciation expense per year = (Cost - Salvage value) / Estimated useful life
Depreciation expense per year = (24000 - 0) / 5
Depreciation expense per year = $4800 per year
Depreciation expense for three months = 4800 * 3/12 = $1200
Accumulated depreciation 1 April 2024 = 14400 + 1200 = $15600
To calculate the gain or loss on disposal, we first need to determine the net book value of asset and deduct it from the cash received on disposal.
NBV = Cost - Accumulated depreciation
NBV = 24000 - 15600
NBV = $8400
Gain on disposal = 16000 - 8400
Gain on disposal = $7600
