Answer:

12%

Explanation:

Accounting rate of return = Average net income / Average book value

Average book value = (Cost of equipment - salvage value) / 2

Average book value =  ($25,000 - 0) / 2 = $12,500

AAR = $1500 / $12,500 = 0.12 = 12%

Plutonic Inc. had $400 million in taxable income for the current year. Plutonic also had an increase in deferred tax liabilities
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

Increase of 130 million

Explanation:

In this question, we are looking to evaluate what has happened to change in deferred tax assets. We proceed as follows;

Firstly, we calculate the current tax.

Mathematically = 40% of 400 million = 40/100 * 400 million = 160 million

Now, as we can see in the question, a decrease in deferred tax asset resulted in an increase in tax expense to a tune of $50 million

This brings the total tax expense to 160 million + 50 million = 210 million

We can see from the question that the company has only recognized a tax expense of $80 million.

This means that the change in deferred tax asset was an increase of 210 million- 80 million = $130 million

Vesna [10]

Answer:

time required is 7.70 years

Explanation:

given data

interest rate = 9%

solution

we know with the compounded​ continuously rate r and time t amount is

A(t) = A(o) e^{rt}     .................1

and we have given amount is double so

A(t) = 2 A(o)

so from equation 1 put the value and we get here

2 A(o) = A(o) e^{rt}

ln(2) = 0.09 t

solve it we get time

time t = 7.70 years

so time required is 7.70 years
