Answer:

b. NPW(SL): $33,738; NPW(DDB): $37,068; Recommendation: DDB

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

As we know that

Present value is

=  [Cash Flow ÷ (1 + Rate of Interest)^Year]

where,

Rate of Interest = 10%

Under Straight-line depreciation:

Beginning book value = $50,000

Salvage value = $5,500

So, the depreciationper year is

=  [($50,000 - $5,500) ÷ 5]

= $8,900

<u>Year    Beginning   Depreciation  End                 Present value </u>

<u>            book value                  book value of depreciation </u>

1            $50,000      $8,900        $41,100             $8,090.91

2           $41,100         $8,900        $32,200           $7,355.37

3           $32,200       $8,900         $23,300           $6,686.70

4           $23,300       $8,900         $14,400           $6,078.82

5           $14,400        $8,900         $5,500              $5,526.20

                                                                                  $33,738.00

Under Double declining depreciation:

Depreciation rate per year = (1 ÷ Useful  Life) × 100

= 1 ÷ 5 × 100

= 20%

Now for double-declining, the rate is doubled

So,

= 20% × 2

= 40%

<u>Year    Beginning   Depreciation  End                 Present value </u>

<u>            book value                  book value of depreciation </u>

1            $50,000      $20,000       $30,000           $18,181.82

2           $30,000       $12,000       $18,000            $9,917.36

3           $18,000       $7,200         $10,800            $5,409.47

4           $10,800       $4,320         $6,480             $2,950.62

5           $6,480       $980              $5,500            $608.50

                                                                                $37,068

Alex

Answer:

net income = $106,000

Explanation:

net income = total revenues - total expenses = $772,000 - $666,000 = $106,000

Any additional capital raised will increase the company's cash flows (financing activity) and any dividends distributed will decrease them (another financing activity), but they do not affect the company's net income.

REY [17]

Answer:

3. MOH allocated to job= predetermined MOH rate * actual amount of allocation base used by the job

Explanation:

3. MOH allocated to job= predetermined MOH rate * actual amount of allocation base used by the job

The predetermined overhead rate is used to apply manufacturing overhead costs to production jobs. the quantity of a cost driver required by a particular job is multiplied by a predetermined overhead rate to determine the amount of overhead cost applied to the job.

An estimate is made of

  1. the amount of manufacturing over head that will be incurred during a specific period of time and
  2. the amount of the cost driver ( or activity base) that will be used or incurred during the same time period. the predetermined overhead rate is computed as follows

Predetermined Overhead Rate= Budgeted Manufacturing Overhead Cost/ Budgeted amount of cost driver

The predetermined overhead rate is used to apply manufacturing overhead costs to production jobs. The quantity of the cost driver ( or activity base ) required by a particular job is multiplied by the predetermined overhead rate to determine the amount of overhead cost applied to the job.

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

Dr Interest expense                    $33,500

Cr Discount on bonds payable                 $1,100

Cr Cash                                                            $32,400

Explanation:

Discount on bonds payable=$540,000-$529,000=$11,000

Amortization of discount=discount on bonds issue/period of the bond

period to maturity of the bond is  5 years *2 =10 since the bond pays interest semi-annually

Amortization =$11,000/10=$1,100

Semi-annual interest=$540,000*12%/2=$32,400

the bond semi-annual interest expense=discount amortization+interest payment

the bond semi-annual interest expense=$32,400+$1,100=$33,500
