Answer:

$69,000

Explanation:

The double-declining method uses twice the rate of the straight-line depreciation method.  

In this case, we need to determine the depreciation rate under the straight-line method. The asset has a useful life of 5 years.

the depreciation rate = 1/5 x 100

=0.2 x 100

=20%

The Depreciation rate for the double-declining method is 40%. The straight-line method considers salvage value at the beginning, but double-declining depreciates until the salvage value.

In the first year under the double-declining method, the depreciation amount was $27,600.

It means 40% of the asset cost is $27,600.

The asset cost is 100%

40%=$27,600

100% = 27,600/40 x 100

=$690 x 100

=$69,000

Asset cost = $69,000

Answer:

Material quantity variance = $9,380 adverse

Explanation:

<em>A material usage variance occurs when the standard quantity required to active a particular level of production is higher or lower than than the actual actual quantity used. A favorable variance would mean than less quantity of materials were used than the standard to achieve a given output level. And an adverse variance would mean the opposite</em>

We can calculate it as follows:

                                                                                         grams

4,400 units should have used (4,400× 2 grams)            8,800

but did use                                                                   <u>    10,140</u>

<u> </u>                                                                                    1,340 adverse

standard price per g                                                ×<u> $7______</u>

Material quantity variance                                    <u>       $ 9,380 adverse</u>

Material quantity variance = $9,380 Adverse

ryzh [129]

Answer: a. Accounts Receivable

Explanation:

The Direct Write-off method is usually used by businesses where Uncollectible Receivables are not common. This way when it does occur, they simply debit the Bad Debts accounts and credit the Accounts Receivables to show the event.

This method of Accounting violates the Matching Principle under the Accrual basis because it usually does not recognize bad debts in the same period that the inventory was sold. It only records bad debts when they are declared which could be periods afterwards.
