Tresset [83]

Answer:

selling price= $199,633

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the book value at the moment of the sale:

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation= (980,000 - 56,500) / 5

Annual depreciation= $184,700

Accumulated depreciation= (4*184,700) + (184,700/12)*4

Accumulated depreciation= $800,367

Book value on May 1st:

Book value= purchase price - accumulated depreciation

Book value= 980,000 - 800,367

Book value= $179,633

Now, if the company makes a profit, the selling price was higher than the book value:

Gain= selling price - book value

20,000= selling price - 179,633

selling price= $199,633

Select all that apply. Select other ways to measure the quality of life in a country besides the real GDP per capita.

Nata [24]

GDP stands for Gross Domestic Product. When we refer to Per Capita GDP, this covers the gross income of the country, and this is divided by the number of population in that country. Basing on this definition, I can say that the other ways to measure the quality of life in a country aside from basing from per capita GDP is through Genuine Progress Indicator, and Gross Domestic Product. Hope this helps.
