Answer:

It is a unilateral contract.

Explanation:

A unilateral contract is a type of contract where only one party of the persons involved in the contract agrees to offer something.

In this case, Markel is offering to give Jaylin $600 for her portrait and Jaylin is not giving any specified time of delivery.

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

The income effect and substitution effect work in opposite directions and income effect is dominant.

Explanation:

In case of a normal good, both the income effect as well as substitution effect work in the same direction. A fall in the price of a product will increase the purchasing power of the consumer so its quantity demanded will increase.  

The consumers will also prefer the cheaper good so the substitution effect will cause the quantity demanded to increase.  

In case of an inferior good, however, income elasticity is negative. The income effect and substitution effect work in opposite directions.  

A price decrease in the case of an inferior good will increase the real income and purchasing power of the consumer. This will cause the quantity demanded of the inferior good to decline as the consumer will prefer a substitute normal good.

On January 1, 2021, Weaver Corporation purchased a patent for $210,000. The remaining legal life is 20 years, but the company es
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Requirement 1. Journal for purchasing Patent:

Jan 01, 2021    Patent Rights (Debit)                    210,000

                                  Cash/Bank (Credit)                            210,000

Requirement 2. Journal for amortization expense for the year ended 31 Dec, 2021:

Dec 31, 2021    Amortization expense - Patent    35,000

                                   Accumulated amortization                 35,000

Requirement 3. Journal for amortization expense for the year ended 31 Dec, 2022:

Dec 31, 2022    Amortization expense - Patent    35,000

                                   Accumulated amortization                 35,000

Requirement 4. Journal for incurring legal fees

Jan 31, 2023     Legal fees                                      30,000

                                    Cash/Bank                                          30,000

Requirement 5. Journal for amortization expense for the year ended 31 Dec, 2023:

Dec 31, 2023    Amortization expense - Patent    35,000

                                   Accumulated amortization                 35,000

Explanation:

Requirement 1.

Since Weaver corporation purchases a patent, it costs the company cash or bank balance. As the patent is a non-current intangible asset, it is a debit. On the other hand, as cash decreases due to the purchase of patent, the cash is a credit. In this journal, an asset (Non-current asset) increases, and another asset (Current asset) decreases. There will be no effect on the total asset.

Requirement 2, 3 and 5. All the calculations will be the same as it is a straight-line method of amortization. Straight-line depreciation (amortization) is a method of expense on an asset over a long period. The expense is the same over the period as the expense is calculated as the total cost divided by the useful number of years. Again, as the patent is an intangible asset; therefore, the asset has to be amortized instead of depreciated.

The amortization expense of patent is = $210,000/6 = $35,000

Since, the company estimates the patent's useful life will be 6 years. Therefore, the amortization expense will be $35,000 for each year.

Requirement 4: Since legal fees is an expense, the company pays for this due to the occurrence of legal issues. The expense decreases the cash; therefore, it is a credit. On the contrary, the legal fees are a debit as it decreases net income. The legal fees, however, does not affect the amortization expense as it is not adding to the cost of the patent.

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

It will take him 45 years

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the number of years it would take to accumulate $1,000,000 if there is a plan to save $500 per month at an interest rate of 5%.

To solve this, we use the following mathematical formula:

Future value of annuity = Annuity payment * {(1+r)^n - 1}/r

Where r is the monthly interest rate and n is the number of months it will take.

From the question, we can identify the following;

Since he earns 5% interest on savings, the actual monthly interest rate will be 5%/12 = 0.4167% = 0.004167

Annuity payment = monthly payment = $500

Future value of annuity = $1,000,000

We substitute these values into the equation:

1,000,000 = 500 * [(1+0.004167)^n - 1]/0.004167

8.334 = (1.004167)^n - 1

1+8.334 = (1.004167)^n

9.334 = (1.004167)^n

To get n, we simply take the log on both sides of the equation

Log 9.334= nLog 1.004167

n = Log9.334/Log1.004167

n = 537 months

Question asks to calculate in years

there are 12 months in a year. The number of years it will take will be 537/12 = 44.76 years and that’s approximately 45 years
