Answer:

A. The total cost of the equipment.

Explanation:

Even if Jambon has not used the equipment in 2005 because it can only be used for the product that is to be developed in five years, Jambon still had to pay for the full cost of the equipment.

Because the equipment is laying idle, it is not depreciating. Therefore, the expense that Jambon is not incurring, is the depreciation expense associated with this equipment. This depreciation expense will only be seen in five years, when the product it was bought for is finally completed.

Many firms in the United States file for bankruptcy every year, yet they still continue operating. Why would they do this instea
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

see below

Explanation:

A firm may either opt to shutdown or declare bankruptcy if its making losses.  A shutdown will involve ceasing operations and disposing of assets to pay creditors. Declaring bankruptcy shields the business from debt obligations or seizing of assets by its creditors.

Many businesses opt to declare bankruptcy because shutting down is costly. Except for properties, other assets are likely to be liquidated at costs below their book value. With the burden of debts shelved for some time, a business has a chance of bouncing back to profitability. A loss-making firm whose price is above the average variable cost should continue operating.

Kingbird Inc. owns equipment that cost $672,000 and has accumulated depreciation of $174,000. The expected future net cash flows
aev [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

In this scenario, we compare the values between book value and the fair value of equipment, the difference would be the loss on impairment of the asset

In mathematically,  

= Book value - fair value

where,

Book value = Equipment cost - accumulated depreciation

                   = $672,000 - $174,000

                   = $498,000

And, the fair value is $384,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $498,000 - $384,00

= $114,000

Now the journal entry would be

Loss on impairment A/c Dr $114,000

      To Accumulated depreciation A/c $114,000

(Being the impairment loss is recorded)

An entrepreneur borrows $500,000 today. The interest rate is 11.5%. If the entrepreneur makes annual payments of $70,000 per yea
love history [14]

Answer:

After 18.44 year loan will be paid

Explanation:

We have given an entrepreneur borrows $500,000 today.

So total amount is $500000

Annual payment is of $70000

Rate of interest r = 11.5 %

We have to find the time period

We know that total amount is given by

A=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^n, here A is total amount , P is yearly paid amount, r is rate of interest and n is time period

So 500000=70000\times (1+\frac{11.25}{100})^n

7.142=1.1125^n

Taking log both side

log7.142=nlog1.1125

n\times 0.0463=0.8538

n = 18.44 year

So after 18.44 year loan will be paid
