Answer:

The Elmo Company

a. The amount of the depreciation expense recorded in year 1 = $3,000

b. The amount of the depreciation expense recorded in year 6 = $1,500

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Cost of equipment on January 1, Year 1 = $26,000

Estimated useful life = 8 years

Salvage value = $2,000

Depreciable amount = $24,000 ($26,000 - 2,000)

Annual depreciation expense = $3,000 ($24,000/8)

Accumulated depreciation after 5 years = $15,000 ($3,000 * 5)

Net book value after 5 years = $11,000

Sixth year appraisals:

Remaining useful life = 6 years

Salvage value = unchanged at $2,000

Depreciable value = $9,000 ($11,000 - 2,000)

Annual depreciation expense = $1,500 ($9,000/6)

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Lowa should produce corn; Nebraska should produce Wheat

Explanation:

Two states: Iowa and Nebraska

Same two goods are produced by both of them: Corn and wheat

For lowa,

Opportunity cost of producing wheat = 3 bushels of corn

Opportunity cost of producing corn = (1 ÷ 3) bushels of wheat

For Nebraska,

Opportunity cost of producing wheat = (1 ÷ 3) bushels of corn

Opportunity cost of producing corn = 3 bushels of wheat

According to the concept of comparative advantage, a country is exporting the commodity in which it has a comparative advantage and a country has a comparative advantage in producing a commodity if the opportunity cost of producing that commodity is lower than the other country.

In our case, lowa should producing and exporting corn because the opportunity cost of producing corn is lower than the Nebraska and on the other hand, Nebraska should producing and exporting wheat because the opportunity cost of producing wheat is lower than the lowa.
