Answer: $972,900
Explanation:
The cost of land consists of the actual purchase price, and all other expenses that are necessary to make the asset ready for its intended use. In terms of land, all these expenditures can include title fees, unpaid taxes from previous years only (i.e. not current taxes), and other expenses need to physically prepare the land for use. The current taxes figure of $4,600 is not included here, as it is only owed during the current year, therefore normal accounting rules for taxes will apply. This figure will thus be treated as a liability until it is paid. The back taxes were aqcuired when the asset was aqcuired, and thus form part of the cost.
Old buildings that were on the land, may need to be teared down so that land can be utilised. The costs used to demolish the building also forms part of the purchase price. On top of that, to fully prepare the land for use the land may need to be landscaped and leveled. All these costs contribute towards getting the land ready for use, and are thus included in the cost. Sales made on any item related to the land, during the process when the land was still being processed for its intended use, will reduce the cost of the asset, and deduct this figure. This figure will fall under sales, which is an income to the business. The full calculation of the cost is as follows:
Purchase price: $910,000
Title insurance: + $2,400
Unpaid property taxes: + $8,300
Cost of removing building: + $45,900
Sale of salvaged materials: - $4,000
Level the land: + $10,300
Cost of land: = $972,900
For the most part of the last 50 years, most most widely car distribution channel has been:
Producer to Franchise Dealer to Consumer
Many companies also rely on secondary distribution channels, either selling directly or through national distributors.
With rising costs, the 21st century might see a shift towards a more direct approach.
Answer: $329.75
Explanation:
The one year subscription is $40 per year. It is estimated that the average age of current subscribers is 38 and they will leave on average to 78. This means that they will leave for,
= 78 - 38
= 40 years
Evans Ltd average interest rate on long-term debt is 12% so this means that we can use that 12% as a discount rate for the cash-flow expected.
I have attached a Present Value Interest Factor of an Annuity table to this question. It helps calculate annuities faster.
The above can be treated as an annuity because the $40 is constant every year.
The present value of the $40 over 40 years can be calculated by,
= $40 * present value Interest Factor of an Annuity for 40 years at 12% (look at the table for where 40 years on the y axis intersects with 12% on the x axis)
= $40 * 8.2438 (this is the figure when it is not rounded off to 3 dp)
= $329.752
= $329.75
This shows that the lifetime flat fee of $480 is more profitable for Evans Ltd as opposed to the yearly subscription. They should therefore try to sell more of the lifetime contract with the flat fee.
Answer:
Apportioned joint cost to A=$92,800
Explanation:
<em>Joint costs are the costs incurred up until the split-off where two or more products result from the same production process. These common costs need to be apportioned among the joint products using any of the following basis:</em>
- physical units
- Relative sales value basis.
The relative value basis apportions joint costs using the proportion of product individual sales value to the the total sales value.
Total sales value = (280×4,000) + (100×2,800) =1400000
Apportioned joint cost to A =(1,120,000/1,400,000)× 116,000=92800
Apportioned joint cost to A=$92,800
Answer:
$9.00.
Explanation:
The computation of the value of a put option is shown below:
Data provided in the question
Current price of the stock = $50
Risk free rate = 6%
Strike price = $55
Sale price = $7.20
Based on the above information
The value of put option is
Put = V - P + X exp(-r
t)
= $7.20 - $50 + $55 e
RF - 0.06(1)
= $7.20 - $50 + $51.80
= $9.00
Hence, the value of put option is $9
