On January 1, 2021, the Allegheny Corporation purchased equipment for $115,000. The estimated service life of the equipment is 1
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

1. $11,000 each year

2. $23,000 and $18,400

3. $15,000 and $12,500

Explanation:

The calculation of the depreciation expense for the 2021 and 2022 is shown below:

1. Straight-line method:

= (Purchase value of equipment - estimated residual value) ÷ (estimated service life)

= ($115,000 - $5,000) ÷ (10 years)

= ($110,000) ÷ (10 years)  

= $11,000

In this method, the depreciation is same for all the remaining useful life  i.e for 2021 also the same depreciation is applied i.e $11,000

2. Double-declining balance method:

First we have to determine the depreciation rate which is

= One ÷ estimated service life

= 1 ÷ 10

= 10%

Now the rate is double So, 20%

In year 1, the original cost is $115,000, so the depreciation is $23,000 after applying the 20% depreciation rate

And, in year 2, the $(115,000 - $23,000) × 20% = $18,400

3. Units-of-production method:

= (Purchase value of equipment - estimated residual value) ÷ (estimated production units)

= ($115,000 - $5,000) ÷ ($220,000 units)

= ($110,000) ÷ (220,000 units)  

= $0.5 per units

For 2021, it would be

= Production units in 2021 year × depreciation per unit

= 30,000 units × $0.5

= $15,000

Now for the 2022, it would be  

= Production units in 2022 year × depreciation per unit

= 25,000 units × $0.5

= $12,500

On 31 December 2020: Debit Compensation expense for $39,667; and Credit Paid-in capital from share options for $39,667.

On 31 December 2021: Debit Compensation expense for $41,067; and Credit Paid-in capital from share options for $41,067.

On 06 January 2022: Debit Cash for $48,000; Debit Paid-in capital from share options for $22,400; Credit Common stock for $3,200; and Credit Paid in capital in excess of par- common stock (balancing figure) for $67,200.

Explanation:

Note: See part b of the the attached excel file for the journal entries

Also note that before the journal entries are recorded, the current compensation expense for year 2019, 2020 and 2021 are first calculated. See part a of the attached excel file for the calculation of the the current compensation expense for year 2019, 2020 and 2021.

In part a of the attached excel file, the estimated compensation cost for 2019, 2020 and 2021 are calculated as follows:

Estimated compensation cost for 2019 = Option value on the grant date * Number of executives * (1 - Expected option forfeited rate) * Number of shares in the option = $14 * 50 * (1 - 15%) * 200 = $119,000

Estimated compensation cost for 2020 = Option value on the grant date * Number of executives * (1 - Expected option forfeited rate) * Number of shares in the option = $14 * 50 * (1 - 15%) * 200 = $119,000

Estimated compensation cost for 2021 = Option value on the grant date * (Number of executives - Actual executives turnover for the entire service period) * Number of shares in the option = $14 * (50 - 7) * 200 = $120,400

On 06 January 2022, the calculation of the entries used in the part b of the attached excel file are as follows:

w.1. Cash = Number of executives who exercise their options * Number of shares in the option * Purchase price per share after completing a 3-year service period = (8 * 200 * $30) = $48,000  

w.2. Paid-in capital from share options = Number of executives who exercise their options * Number of shares in the option * Option value on the grant date = (8 * 200 * 14) = $22,400

w.3. Common Stock = Number of executives who exercise their options * Number of shares in the option * Sahre par value = (8 * 200 * $2) = $3,200

w.4. Paid in capital in excess of par- common stock (balancing figure)  = Cash + Paid-in capital from share options - Common Stock = $48,000 + $22,400 - $3,200 = $67,200

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Many times, clients will shift new people into the project who have no experience with it as they move their key people to new challenges. This issue is: One that is external and intellectual.

Explanation:

External issues do not affect an entity obviously.  The clients shifting new people into projects and moving their key people to new challenges know why they must be doing so.  It may be to encourage organizational learning.  It may be because the key people have been promoted and need to move to higher positions.

Most importantly, it is the clients as entities that we should be concerned and deal with.  Clients like other organizational entities have systems, processes, and policies that they work with to produce results.  Their internal management should remain internal and not be externalized by overtly and overzealous outsiders.

RESTAURANT RESEARCH SCENARIO - Insight Research, a marketing research company, has been hired by a national chain of family rest
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

Employees attitude to customers (Customer Relationship) and the quality of the food are the two most important trends that would bring about an increase in sales.

Explanation:

The first instrument of effective sales is an establish relationship. If a customers visits a restaurant to buy food and does not feel welcomed, the tendency to return back another time is very slim. Hnece, taking the scenerio in questions,the employees do not have the right attitude for keepiing their customers loyal to their product irrespective of whether the product is good or bad.

On the other hand, the reason for visiting a restaurant is to eat good food and not bad. So, when the quality of food cooked by the restaurant does not meet the taste and quality expected by the customer, the possibility of having such customer come around again is low. This invariably implies loosing the customer and the chain of connections such customer would have brought to the restaurant.

In summary, having the right employees with good customer relationship and chefs with good food recipes and quality is likely to result in the restaurant experiencing an increase in sales
