Pollution control equipment for a pulverized coal cyclone furnace is expected to cost $190,000 two years from now and another $1

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

$212,882.75

Explanation:

Cost from 2 years now = $190,000

Cost from 9 years now = $120,000

Interest rate = 9% Quarterly

Present Worth = Cost from 2 years now*[1/(1+interest/m)^nm] * Cost from 2 years now*[1/(1+interest/m)^nm]

Present Worth = 190,000*[1/(1+0.09/4)^2*4] + 120,000*[1/(1+0.09/4)^9*4]

Present Worth = 190,000*[1/(1.0225)^8] + 120,000*[1/(1.0225)^36]

Present Worth = 190,000*[1/1.19483] + 120,000*[1/2.22782]

Present Worth = 190,000*0.83693915 + 120,000*0.4488693

Present Worth = 159018.4385 + 53864.316

Present Worth = 212882.7545

Present Worth = $212,882.75

Thus, the amount to invest to cover these cost is $212,882.75

_____ are one of the inputs to manufacturing and service-delivery processes. a. Subassemblies b. Stock-keeping units c. Finished

Contact [7]

Answer:

a. Subassemblies

Explanation:

Subassemblies are one of the inputs to manufacturing and service-delivery processes. This is because these are small units that need to be assembled separately but then later become part of the final larger manufactured product. Therefore since they are part of the final manufactured product they are an input in the manufacturing process of that larger product needed in order for it to be finished.

A delivery truck costing $25,000 is expected to have a $1,500 salvage value at the end of its useful life of four years or 125,0

Helga [31]

Answer:

a.

Depreciation expense year 2 Straight line = $5875

b.

Depreciation expense year 2 Double declining = $6250

c.

Depreciation expense year 2 units of activity = $5264

Explanation:

a.

Straight line method is a depreciation method that charges a constant depreciation expense through out the useful life of the asset. Straight line depreciation per year is,

Straight line depreciation = (Cost - Salvage value) / Estimated useful life

Straight line depreciation = (25000 - 1500) / 4 = $5875 per year

Straight line rate = 100% / 4 = 25%

b.

Double declining balance is an accelerated method of depreciation that charges more depreciation in the initial years and less in later years. Double declining balance depreciation is calculated as follows,

Depreciation expense = 2 * Straight line rate * Book value at start of the period

Depreciation expense year 1 = 2 * 0.25 * 25000 = $12500

Book value at start of year 2 = 25000 - 12500 = $12500

Depreciation year 2 = 2 * 0.25 * 12500 = $6250

c.

The units of production method charges depreciation based on the activity for which asset is used as a proportion of the estimated useful life in terms of activity.

Depreciation expense year 2 = (28000 / 125000) * (25000 - 1500)

Depreciation expense year 2 = $5264

A criticism of the National Bureau of Economic Research's business cycle dating committee is that it: Question 2 options: a) mak

lutik1710 [3]

The answer is: c) dates peaks and troughs only after the fact.

This mean that millions of dollar spents by the Bureau cannot necessarily used to address the economic problems that people currently face.

One argument to counter such criticism is that the data from the Bureau could be used to make future predicitons and prevent any mistakes in the past from occuring again in the future.
