Answer:

The amount of accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2023 = $88,800.

Explanation:

Determining the actual acquisition cost.

The actual acquisition cost = Purchase value + freight charges + Installation costs.

The actual acquisition cost = 460,000 + 15,000 + 34,000.

The actual acquisition cost = $509,000.

Determining the depreciable cost.

The depreciable cost = acquisition cost - Salvage value.

The depreciable cost = 509,000 - 65000.

The depreciable cost = $444,000.

Determining annual depreciation expense.

Annual depreciation expense = depreciable cost / number of years.

Annual depreciation expense = 444,000 / 10.

Annual depreciation expense = 44,400.

Determining the accumulated depreciation .

The accumulated depreciation = annual depreciation expense × number of years.

The accumulated depreciation = 44,400 × 2.

Natali [406]

Answer:

I gotchu-

Explanation:

A responsibility is something you have to do or (at least) ought to do.

For example, it's the US Citizens responsibility to drive safely.

A right is something you are allowed to do or permitted to do. You have no obligation to exercise your right.

For example, it's the US Citizens right to vote during an election.

In conclusion, a responsibilty is something that the govt expects you to do, while a right is a privelege the govt gives you if you follow the laws.

P.S. To have rights, you must follow your responsibilities.

Hope this helped :)
