electricity. Electricity is in most commercial and residential use. Industrial processes
use natural gas, oil, and electricity. Some oil, natural gas and biomass are

Answer: 2.72%
Explanation:
An annuity is a series of payments that is made at equal intervals. Examples are monthly home mortgage payments, regular deposits to a savings account, pension payments.
Number of payment period (NPER) = 12 years
Payment per period (PMT) = $15000
Amount needed, PV = $156000
The formula for an annuity is calculated as:
P = PMT x ((1 – (1 / (1 + r) ^ -n)) / r)
= Rate(12,15000,-156000,1)
Rate = 2.72%
They can lose their personal assets.
Answer:
ACME Drilling should record impairment loss of $6.9 million
Explanation:
According to GAAP, when the fair value of an asset is below the net carrying amount of that asset ( Asset's historical cost - Asset's accumulated depreciation or the net book value of the asset), the Company should record it as asset impairment loss.
In ACME's case, the net book value is $18.6 million while the estimated fair value is only $11.7 million meaning that the platform is actually worth less than it is recorded on ACME's book. Thus, an impairment loss of $6.9 million should be recorded ( $18.6 million - $11.7 million) to realize the fair value of the oil-drilling platform.
The sum of projected sum of future cash flows in this case is not suitable to be used to determine the oil-drilling platform because it has not been discounted to the present value amount, and also, it is not appropriate under GAAP.
