Answer: Depreciation is tax deductible
Explanation:
Depreciation on assets is recognized by tax authorities as an expense that a business actually incurs so when the income statement is calculated, depreciation needs to be removed as the expense that it is so that taxes can be calculated on the profit.
Depreciation however, does not take actual cash from the company i.e the company does not actually pay anyone cash for depreciation like most other expenses. It needs therefore to be added back to the Free Cash Flow because the FCF deals with how much actual cash the company has which is something that Depreciation being a non-cash expense did not reduce.
Answer:
2011 = 113
2012 = 119
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
GDP deflator = (Nominal GDP) ÷ (Real GDP) × 100
For 2011, it would be
= ($13,495 billion) ÷ ($11,919 billion) × 100
= 113
For 2012, it would be
= ($14,241 billion) ÷ ($12,007 billion) × 100
= 119
In order to find out the GDP deflator, we divided the Nominal GDP by the Real GDP
A decline in the real GDP that occurs for at least two or more quarters is called a depression. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is option "b". There is a very thin line of difference between recession and depression. when the real GDP falls for a repeated number of periods, then it is depression.
Assuming that you have the values for the year 2017, the break-even point would be 1500 units for the year 2017. To calculate this, we use the idea that at the breaking point, total sales is equal to the total cost or expenses made. Which would be:
selling (x) = fixed + variable (x)
x = fixed / (selling - variable)
x = 270000 / (600-420)
x = 1500 units
