Answer:
The remaining useful life of the asset is = 10 - 3 = 7 years
Explanation:
The straight line method of depreciation charges a constant depreciation expense through out the useful life of the asset. The formula for depreciation expense under this method is,
Depreciation expense = (Cost - Salvage value) / Estimated useful life of the asset
Plugging in the values for depreciation expense per year, cost and salvage value, we can calculate the total expected life of the asset.
5000 = (53000 - 3000) / estimated useful life of the asset
estimated useful life of the asset = 50000 / 5000
estimated useful life of the asset = 10 years
As the accumulated depreciation balance is of 15000, the depreciation for 15000/5000 = 3years has been charged.
The remaining useful life of the asset is = 10 - 3 = 7 years

Answer:
40%
Explanation:
Total assets. $240,000
Less total liabilities ($130,000)
$110,000
Less common stock ($24,000)
Retained earnings at end $86,0000
Less Retained earnings at the beginning ($29,000)
Addition to retained earnings $57,000
Add dividends $6,400
Net profit earned $63,400
Add expenses $94,000
Revenue. $157,400
Therefore, company's net profit margin expressed as a percentage = Net profit earned / Revenue
= (63,400/157,400) × 100
= 40%
Answer:
C. Step variable cost
Explanation:
Fixed costs are those costs which are incurred anyways irrespective of the level of operation of a business or the volume of activity. For example rent of factory is a fixed cost which has to be incurred regardless of the production level.
Variable costs are those costs which vary with the level of production. e.g labor cost.
In this case, a T- shirt is given to every 100th customer. This kind of cost is step cost at the level of 100th customer. The number of T-shirts in a day would depend upon the no of patrons arriving each day i.e variable.
Thus, this is the case of a step variable cost which is incurred at discrete point i.e every 100th customer.
Answer: Option A
Explanation: A convenience store might be part of a gas / petrol station, allowing consumers to easily buy goods and services when fueling their vehicles. It may be situated along a busy highway, in a metropolitan area, alongside a train or train station, or at another regional hub.
Generally convenience stores charge significantly higher prices than traditional grocery stores or supermarkets, as these wholesalers order limited stock amounts at higher per-unit prices. Convenience stores, however, compensate for this deficit by providing longer open hours, more locations and shorter cashier lines.
