Answer:
C) a manufacturer who creates tools such as bolts, latches, door handles etc. for left-handed individuals
Explanation:
A niche market is a segment of a market that has a specific target group of consumers, usually due to a highly specific need or interest of those people. On the contrary, mainstream providers cater to the needs of the mass market, a customer base that is not specific and is largely diverse.
Therefore, large-scale manufacturers that have a large range of standardized products are <u>not</u> considered as niche.
In this example, the company producing miscellaneous things tailored for left-handed individuals is highly niche by nature.

$7,000
Explanation:
Depreciation: The depreciation is an expense that shows a reduction in the value of the fixed assets due to tear and wear, obsolesce, usage, time period, etc. It is shown on the debit side of the income statement. It is a non-cash item that does not affect the cash balance.
The computation of the depreciation expense for 2017 is shown below:
= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)
= ($78,500 - $8,500) ÷ (10 years)
= ($70,000) ÷ (10 years)
= $7,000
In this method, the depreciation is same for all the remaining useful life
Answer:
$13
Explanation:
The current value of the stock can be determined using the constant growth dividend model
according to the constant dividend growth model
price = d1 / (r - g)
d1 = next dividend to be paid
r = cost of equity
g = growth rate
(1 x 1.04) / (0.12 - 0.04) = 13
Answer:
Relevant Range
Explanation:
The production range between 120000 and 150000 is called the "Relevant range".
This production range is called Relevant range because the expected fixed cost will not vary if the production is in the range 120000 to 150000.
Also, the for increase in production more than 150000 will lead to the extra cost or if the production is less than 120000 the company may need to reduce its fixed cost.
Answer:
C. $25,960
Explanation:
Cost of asset includes all the cost involved to acquire and install the asset. In simple term all the costs that are necessary to make the asset usable are capitalised and added to the cost of the asset.
In this question stamping machine has following cost which need to be capitalised.
Discounted Price = $24,000 x ( 100% - 3% ) = $24,000 x 97% = $23,280
Transportation cost = $550
Sales Tax = $1,680
Installation cost = $450
Total cost to be capitalized = $23,280 + $550 + $1,680 + $450 = $25,960
Routine Maintenance cost is the routine / period cost which incur every month, It is not necessary to make the asset usable and it is incurred after the asset is used.
