Answer: Highest income=The units of Production method of depreciation with $3,412,500

Lowest income=double declining depreciation method with $18,000,000

Explanation:

a) Using Straight line depreciation method

(Cost of value - Salvage value)/ Useful life =(45,000,000 -6,000,000)/5 =$7,800,000

b)Using Units-of-production depreciation method

Depreciation Expense = (Cost – Salvage value) x (Number of units produced / Life in number of units)

=45,000,000 -6,000,000) x (350,000/4,000,000)= $3,412,500

b)Using Double-declining-balance depreciation method

Depreciation Expense = Beginning book value x Rate of depreciation

Rate of depreciation = 100% / useful life x 2= 100/5 x2 = 40 %

Depreciation expense = 40 % x $45,000,000 =$18,000,000

or you use this method directly= 45,000,000/5 x 2= $18,000,000

Now the highest income will come from the depreciation with least expense and from our calculation, the depreciation method with the least expense is from The units of Production method with $3,412,500

In the same vein, the lowest income will come from the most depreciation expense, therefore the most depreciation expense is from the double declining method with $18,000,000

Explain how a Target price for farm crops is an example of a price floor.

12345 [234]

Answer: A target price for farm crops is an example of price floor because it’s fixed ahead of harvests with the interest of farmers in mind.

Explanation: A quick definition of both concepts would be of help. A price floor is usually fixed by government legislation and it ensures that the price of a commodity or service does not fall below a certain minimum. In the case of farm crops, a floor price makes sure that the farmers are guaranteed a level of profit in case there is poor harvest for any reason whatsoever. The price floor must be fixed above the equilibrium price for this to be effective.

A target price is an expectation of the future price of commodities or services, and hence prices are fixed ahead of the harvest in the case of farm crops. This is so because as explained earlier, future conditions might change and become unfavorable, therefore making the current market price unprofitable for farmers. If for example, a sack of potatoes currently sells for $30, the government may fix the price floor ahead of the harvest season at $45 per sack. This implies that after harvesting farmers can still sell at $30. However if the harvest turns out to be bad perhaps due to natural disasters, pests or fungal attacks, etc, then the farmers can go ahead and sell at $45 and possibly higher. No farmer is allowed to sell below $45 (since that is the ‘floor’). That way, farmers would still have some profit guaranteed and would be encouraged to remain in the farming business.

You just took out a $12,000 loan for your small business. the loan has a four year term and repayment is in the form of four eq

umka2103 [35]

Answer: $403.20

Explanation:

We use a mortgage calculator to calculate the interest paid in the final payment. Since each repayment is made at the end of year, the repayments are annual payments. So, the calculator should have an annual amortization schedule to solve the problem.

I used http://www.calculator.net/loan-calculator for the calculation because it has an annual payment schedule. Then, I went under the subtitle Paying Back a Fixed Amount Periodically because the payments are equal. In that online calculator, I just input these data:

- Loan Amount: $12,000
- Loan Term: 4 (Loan term is number of years to pay the loan)
- Interest Rate: 11.5%
- Compound: Annually (APY)
- Pay Back: Every year

Then, I clicked the calculate button and view amortization table. The annual amortization schedule is attached in this answer.

To determine the interest paid at the final payment, I looked at payment #4 because the final payment is at the 4th year. (The loan is paid in 4 annual payments).

As seen in the attached image, the interest paid in payment #4 is $403.20. Hence, the interest paid in the final payment is $403.20.
