Answer:

$1,000

Explanation:

Fixed assets must be recorded at historic cost or purchase value. Their valuation is not affected by changes in market values, e.g. land might appreciate over time, but its historic cost will be used for accounting purposes.

In this case, Lisi doesn't have a bill to show the price of the rack, and since she paid in cash, she has no way of proving what she actually paid for it. In this case, in order to record the purchase of the rack you must use the fair market value of similar racks.

Imagine if someone could just say that they purchased things at X price but didn't get a bill, soon people would be recording buying pencils at $500 each because they are gorgeous and perfectly crafted.

Effectus [21]

Answer:

an increase in the price of soccer balls.

Explanation:

Soccer balls are made of polyethylene and other petroleum oil derivates. An increase in the price of oil will lead to increased price of soccer balls, because the raw material price has gone up.

Kayaks also have raw materials derived from oil that is why they are experiencing a rise in price.

Kayaks and soccer balls will have a directly proportional relationship due to their common raw material source- oil.

Artemon [7]

Answer:

I could display the qualities of a visionary leader by offering a coherent vision for the future, and a good economic plan.

Explanation:

A visionary leader in such a dire situation would first of all show a guide to the people, would tell them that there is hope, and would explain to them why such hope still exists.

Such leader would also lay out an economic plan that can resolve, at least, some of the economic issues of the country, because it is true that no plan is perfect, and no government policy solves all problems by itself.
