Answer:
The requirement of the question is as below:
How much must Alan deposit on January 1? (Round your final answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.)
What is the interest for the four years? (Round your final answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.)
Alan deposit on January 1 is $ 58,802.39
Interest for four years is $21,197.61
Explanation:
The first is asking for today's worth of the investment,which is the amount to be invested,this can be computed using the present value as shown below:
PV=FV*(1+r)^-n
PV is the present value
FV is the worth of the investment in 4 years from now which is $80,000
r is the rate of return of 8%
n is the number of years of investment which is 4 years
PV=$80,000*(1+8%)^-4
PV=$80,0008(1+0.08)^-4
PV=$80,000*(1.08)^-4
PV =$ 58,802.39
interest for four years=FV-PV
interest for four years=$80,000-$ 58,802.39
=$21,197.61

Answer: A. Sales-type lease
Explanation:
A Sales type lease is one where the present value of all the lease payments of the Asset being leased is more than the cost/ carrying amount of the Asset.
The present value of the lease Payments is the Fair Value of the asset and as seen from the question, the fair value of the asset is more than the cost of the Asset. The lease will therefore be accounted for as a Sales type lease by the lessor.
It is worthy of note that this entry affects only the lessor.
Answer:
Authority - Responsibility Balance & Incentive Development.
Explanation:
Authority refers to the power to command, give orders to somebody. And enjoying the position of having right to get it obeyed.
Responsibility refers to being in a position of accountability, answerability for an allocated task or job & its performance.
For Eg : A manager given responsibility to complete a task of production targets achievement, is also given authority to command the entire staff at the production site.
Joe had problem while working for someone else that :- he had responsibility to complete employers allocated task, but may be not given enough authority to do so, thats why he felt he is being 'commanded by, working for' someone else. Also, he doesn't owe the rewards of his acts, so lacks incentive.
Being an entrepreneur will entitle him with managerial responsibilities, but at the same time will also give him higher authority to take his own independent decisions. And, he is himself responsible for his acts, will bear losses or enjoy profits for himself. So, it also incentivises him to work for himself.
