Svetllana [295]

On December 31, 2022, the book value of the equipment comes out to be $36,840 with monthly depreciation of $620.

Option D is the correct answer.

<h3>What is meant by depreciation?</h3>

Depreciation is a method that applies to tangible fixed assets where the fall in the value of an asset has been recorded.

Given values:

The purchase cost of equipment: $44,280

Monthly depreciation: $620

<u>Step-1</u> Computation of annual depreciation charges:

$\rm\ Annual \rm\ depreciation=\rm\ Monthly \rm\ depreciation \times \rm\ Number \rm\ of \rm\ months \rm\ in \rm\ a \rm\ year\\\rm\ Annual \rm\ depreciation=\$620 \times\ 12\\\rm\ Annual \rm\ depreciation=\$7,440$

<u>Step-2</u> Computation of book value of the equipment at the year-end:

$\rm\ Equipment's \rm\ Book \rm\ value=\rm\ Purchase \rm\ Cost \rm\ of \rm\ Equipment-\rm\ Annual \rm\ Depreciation \\\rm\ Equipment's \rm\ Book \rm\ value=\$44,280-\$7,440\\\rm\ Equipment's \rm\ Book \rm\ value=\$36,840$

Therefore, when the company purchases equipment at $44,280 with annual depreciation is $7,440, then the equipment's book value comes out to be $36,840 at the year-end.

A candle manufacturer produces 4,000 units when the market price is $11 per unit and produces 6,000 units when the market price

mario62 [17]

Answer:

The option (b) 2.4 is correct.

Explanation:

We can find price elasticity of demand by using the formula shown in the attachment attached with.

Since we know the quantities of product associated with the market price of the product, by putting values in the equation we have:

Price elasticity of Demand =

= [(6000 - 4000) / (6000 + 4000)/2] / [(13 - 11) / (13+11)/2]

Price elasticity of Demand = 2.4

So this is how we can find the price elasticity of supply which says that the producers will respond to prices drop by producing lower quantity of product.

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

1. $26 per unit

2. $183,040

3. $503,360

Explanation:

1. Computation of per unit mineral cost

Per unit mineral cost=(1,169,500+96,300+214,000-107,000)/52,800

Per unit mineral cost=1,372,800/52,800

Per unit mineral cost=$26 per unit

Therefore the Per unit mineral cost will be $26 per unit

2. Computation of Total materials cost

Total materials cost= (26,400 tons-19,360 tons)*26

Total materials cost=7,040*26

Total materials cost=$183,040

Therefore the Total materials cost will be $183,040

3. Calculation for the Total materials cost in Cost of goods sold

Total materials cost in Cost of goods sold= (19,360*26)

Total materials cost in Cost of goods sold =$503,360

Therefore the Total materials cost in Cost of goods sold will be $503,360
