labwork [276]

Answer: 10% or $2,000,000

Explanation:

Seeing as no figures were produced, we will have to do this ourselves.

We will make assumptions which include the following,

Life of the equipment = 10 Years

Salvage value = 0

Those are our 2 assumptions.

In that case then,

The Annual Depreciation will be,

Depreciation = (Cost of equipment - Estimated salvage value) / Estimated useful life

= (20 - 0) / 10

= $2 million

Seeing as 2 million is,

= 2/20 * 100

= 10%

That would mean that annual depreciation costs at that facility will rise by $2 million or 10%.

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

$165,000

Explanation:

The first step is to calculate the work in process inventory

= 50,000/40/100

= 50,000/0.4

= 125,000

Therefore the total manufacturing cost can be calculated as follows

= 240,000-125,000+50,000

= 115,000+50,000

= 165,000

Hence the total manufacturing costs is $165,000
