Answer:

c. $600,000 vs. $528,000.

Explanation:

The computation of the relevant cost of make & buy is given below:

Total relevant cost of making the product is

= (cost per unit - unavoidable fixed cost per unit ) × 20,000 units

= ($34 - $4 ) × 20,000 units

= $600,000.

And, Total relevant cost of buying is

= (cost of buy per unit × 20,000 units ) - Contribution sale of water filtration = ( $28 × 20,000 units ) - ($80,000 - 60% of $80,000)

= $528,000

hence, the option c is correct

Waterway Company acquired a plant asset at the beginning of Year 1. The asset has an estimated service life of 5 years. An emplo
Masja [62]

Answer:

$69,000

Explanation:

The double-declining method uses twice the rate of the straight-line depreciation method.  

In this case, we need to determine the depreciation rate under the straight-line method. The asset has a useful life of 5 years.

the depreciation rate = 1/5 x 100

=0.2 x 100

=20%

The Depreciation rate for the double-declining method is 40%. The straight-line method considers salvage value at the beginning, but double-declining depreciates until the salvage value.

In the first year under the double-declining method, the depreciation amount was $27,600.

It means 40% of the asset cost is $27,600.

The asset cost is 100%

40%=$27,600

100% = 27,600/40 x 100

=$690 x 100

=$69,000

Asset cost = $69,000
