Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of the good.

Willingness to pay is the highest amount a consumer would be willing to pay for a product. The willingness to pay in this question is $30.

Answer:

A. $191,818

B. $303

C. Loss; $11,515

Explanation:

A. Calculation to determine what The adjusted basis of the asset at the end of 2019 is

Cost of asset $200,000

Less Greater of allowed and allowable cost recovery:

2018 $910

2019 $7,272 ($8,182)

($910+$7,272=$81,82)

Adjusted basis of the asset at the end of 2019 $191,818

($200,000-$8,182)

Therefore the Adjusted basis of the asset at the end of 2019 will be $191,818

B. Calculation to determine what The cost recovery deduction for 2020 is

Cost recovery deduction for 2020= ($200,000 x .03636 x 0.5 / 12)

Cost recovery deduction for 2020=$303

Therefore The Cost recovery deduction for 2020 is $303

C. Calculation to determine what The____on the sale of the asset in 2020 is

Based on the information given we would be using 0.3636 as the percentage for 27.5-year assets.

Cost of asset $200,000

Less Greater of allowed and allowable cost recovery:

2018 $910

2019 $7,272 ($8,182)

($910+$7,272=$81,82)

Adjusted basis of the asset at the end of 2019 $191,818

($200,000-$8,182)

Less Cost recovery for 2020 $303

($200,000 * .03636 * 0.5 / 12)

Basis on date of sale $191,515

($191,818-$303)

Loss on sale of asset ($11,515)

($180,000 – $191,515)

Therefore The LOSS on the sale of the asset in 2020 is $11,515

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Break-even point in units= 93 units

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Its fixed costs are $1000 a week and its variable costs for one batch of umbrellas per week are $500 for 2000 units.

After doing market research, the company sets the price per umbrella at $11.

Unitary variable cost= 500/2,000= $0.25

To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 1,000/ (11 - 0.25)

Break-even point in units= 93 units

eduard

Answer: The answer is D $300 computer, $240 oven

Explanation:

According to IRS tables on the calculation of depreciation on computer and oven, it is estimated that an asset such as computer will have a depreciation useful life of 5 years

Therefore since computer cost and printer = $1,500, useful life = 5 year

Cost ÷ useful life

= 1,500 ÷ 5

= $300

For oven since the cost =$1,200, useful life = 5years

Cost ÷ useful life

= 1,200 ÷ 5

= $240

Supler Corporation produces a part used in the manufacture of one of its products. The unit product cost is $21, computed as fol

Len [333]

Answer:

$4 advantage

Explanation:

In this question we need to compare the cost between the relevant cost and the outside supplier cost

The relevant cost is

= Direct material per unit + direct labor per unit + variable manufacturing overhead per unit + fixed manufacturing overhead per unit

= $8 + $5 + $3 + $5 × 80%

= $8 + $5 + $3 + $4

= $20

Since 80% of the fixed manufacturing cost above is eliminated so we considered the same

And, the outside supplier cost is $16

So based on the above calculation, the financial advantage is

= $20 - $16

= $4 advantage

This shows the company should purchased from outside supplier as it saves $4
