Answer:

b) 2,000

Explanation:

sales price = $30

10% from each sale = $3

the amount of rent paid as a percentage of sales = $15,000 - $9,000 = $6,000

the indifference point in units = $6,000 / 10% revenue margin = $6,000 / $3 = 2,000 units

If Bates sells less than 2,000 units, then he should prefer option 2, but if he sells more than 2,000 units, then option 1 is better for him.

Steve's Outdoor Company purchased a new delivery van on January 1 for $45,000 plus $3,800 in sales tax. The company paid $12,800
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

a. Compute the acquisition cost of the van.

van's basis = $45,000 (the van) + $3,800 (sales tax) + $700 (logo) = $49,500

When you purchase an asset, its basis must include the cost of the asset, any freight costs, taxes associated with the sale, any applicable insurance expense, installation costs and or any modifications necessary.

b. Compute the depreciation expense to be reported for Year 1.

depreciable value = $49,500 - $4,500 = $45,000

depreciation expense per year = $45,000 / 5 = $9,000

notka56 [123]

Answer:

1. $31,000

2. $40,000

Explanation:

1. Computation of bad debt expenses for the year

Bad debt expenses = Credit sales × Bad debts expenses

= $1,550,000 × 2%

= $31,000

2. Computation of year end balance

Year end balance = Beginning balance + Bad debt expense - Written off

= $31,000 + $31,000 - $22,000

= $40,000

Therefore for computing the bad debt expenses and year end balance we simply applied the above formula.

Jada converted her personal residence to rental property in 2018. She purchased the property in 2014 for $110,000, of which $10,
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

a)Jada's basis for depreciation in the property is NIL.

b) Personal property that has no intrinsic value is called 'INTANGIBLE PROPERTY'.

Explanation:

Due to a decline in the property values over the past few years Jada has converted her personal residence to rental property and/or investment property which is a subject dealt within IAS 40 (Investment property).

According to IAS 40 an investment property is land or building held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both rather than use in the entity. IAS 40 requires to initially measure investment property at cost and subsequently may either measure at cost or fair value model. Fair value is normally established by prevailing market prices.

IAS 40 also mentions that if an asset is revalued to fair value the gain and loss should be recorded in statement of profit and loss and 'NO DEPRECIATION IS CHARGED ON THE ASSET AFTER THE FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT'.

Therefore, following the instructions laid out by IAS 40 Jada's basis for depreciation in the property is NIL.

2) Personal property with no intrinsic value:

Personal property that has no intrinsic value is called 'INTANGIBLE PROPERTY'.

Lets first understand what intrinsic value is. Intrinsic value of an asset refers to the market led and/or market-driven price of that asset. This means those assets which don't have an active market for sale and purchase will have no intrinsic value. This is absolutely the case with intangible assets, because most intangible assets are unique and uncommon, such as, GOODWILL, PATENTS, COPYRIGHTS, therefore due to the uniqueness and exclusivity of such assets an active market place doesn't exist therefore it's hard to determine an intrinsic value for such kind of assets/ properties.
