Answer:

Cost savings in sourcing from Country A = $0.5 million ($57.5 - $57 million)

Explanation:

Sourcing from Country A:

Purchase price = $0.55 per unit

Shipping = $0.02

Total Cost = $0.57

Cost of 100 million units = $57 million

Sourcing from Country B:

Purchasing price = $0.44 ($0.55 x 80%)

Shipping = $0.06

CIF Tariff = 15% = $0.075  ($0.5 x 15%)

Total Cost = $0.575

Cost of 100 million units = $57.5 million

Sourcing from Country A is more beneficial than sourcing from Country B with reduced product cost, but increased shipping and additional tariff.  Whereas Country A gives a total cost for 100 million units of $57 million, sourcing the same units from Country B gives a total cost of $57.5 million.  The savings of $0.5 million is substantial that no company would like to lose unless the goods from Country B are of higher quality than those from Country A.

zhenek [66]

Answer:

$13,300 for each of the four years

Unit of output

$9800

$18900

$16100

$8400

double declining

27530

13765

6882.5

3441.25

Explanation:

Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

( $55,060 - $1,860) / 4 = $13,300 each year

Activity method based on hours worked = (hours worked that year / total hours of the machine) x  (Cost of asset - Salvage value)

( $55,060 - $1,860) / 7600 = 7

year 1 = 7 x 1400 = 9800

year 2 = 7 x 2700 = $18900

year 3 = 7 x 2300 = $16100

year 4 = 7 x 1200 = $8400

Depreciation expense using the double declining method = Depreciation factor x cost of the asset

Depreciation factor = 2 x (1/useful life) = 2/4 = 0.5

Year 1 = $55,060 x 0.5 = 27530

book value =  $55,060 - 27530 = 27530

year 2 = 27530 x 0.5 = 13765

book value = 27530 - 13765 =  13765

year 3 =  13765 x 0.5 = 6882.50
