GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Option B              

Explanation:

Depreciation refers to an  accounting tradition that enables a firm to compose off the worth of an asset throughout an amount of time, generally the beneficial life of the investment.

Assets like equipment and appliances are costly. Instead of recognizing the asset's full cost in the first year one, depreciating the asset helps businesses to distribute the burden and generate income from it.

Thus, depreciation relates to decrease in value of an asset so that expenses can be recorded efficiently and revenue could be computed as per the periods. Therefore, the method of depreciation should be chosen as per its revenue contribution to the entity using it.

China's government is encouraging companies to __________. View Available Hint(s)for Part D China's government is encouraging co
Svetradugi [14.3K]

China is attempting to gradually replace coal with cleaner-burning natural gas in an effort to cut short its CO2 emissions. The correct answer is option A; make the switch from coal to natural gas for the generation of electricity.

<h3><u>Why is Chinese government switching to cleaner fuels?</u></h3>
  • Natural gas is a crucial fuel for China's future, and the country's emissions trading system (ETS) is a crucial tool for achieving its climate goals and promoting the switch from coal to natural gas.
  • The core of Chinese energy policy is the security of energy supply based on reliance on primarily domestic production and energy diversification, as well as control of greenhouse gas emissions and environmental protection. These concepts frequently appear in statements made by Chinese policymakers and executives of energy companies.
  • China has prioritized lowering carbon emissions by using less coal and oil as part of its 12th Five-Year Plan (2011-2015). The primary energy source to accomplish this is natural gas.
  • The Chinese government has set an ambitious goal to reduce carbon emissions by 17 percent between 2011 and 2015 by closing energy-intensive enterprises and to increase the share of natural gas in the energy mix from its current 4 percent to 10 percent by 2020.
  • Increasing demand for fuels and the official endorsement of clean energy sources leads to solidifying the position of natural gas in the upcoming years.
