Answer: No. The machine shouldn't be replaced.

Explanation:

Proposal to Replace Equipment

Annual Variable Costs - Present Equipment = $4000

Less: Annual Variable Costs - New Equipment = $1500

Annual Differential Decrease in Cost = $2500

Number of Years Applicable = 5

Total Differential Decrease in Cost = $2500 × 5 = $12500

Proceeds from Sales of Present Equipment = $2000

Cost of New Equipment = $8000

Annual Net Differential Increase in Cost - New Equipment = $18000 - $2000 = $16000

The machine shouldn't be replaced as the total differential decrease in cost is less than the annual net differential increase in cost of the new equipment.

The present value factor for an ordinary annuity at 10% for 6 periods is 4.3553. The lease does not transfer the property to Whi
gogolik [260]

Complete question:

On January 1. Year 1. White Co. sold a property with a remaining useful life of 20 years to Blue Co. for $900.000. At the same time. White entered into a contract with Blue for the right to use the property (leaseback) for a period of 6 years. with annual rental payments of 580.000 that approximate the market rental payments for similar properties. On January 1. Year 1. the carrying amount of the property was 5680.000. and its fair value was 5770.000. A discount rate for the lease of 10% is used by both White and Blue. The present value factor for an ordinary annuity at 10% for 6 periods is 4.3553. The lease does not transfer the property to White at the end of the lease term and does not include a purchase option.  

What amount of lease expense for the right of use of the property is recognised by White in Year 1 ?

A. $0

B. $130,000

C. $90,000

D. $220,000

Answer:

$90,000 amount of lease expense for the right of use of the property is recognised by White in Year 1

Explanation:

If the leaseback is known as an operating lease, the original transition to the buyer-lessor of the asset should be taken into account as the selling of an asset, given that all the income identification requirements have been fulfilled.

If the deal is of equal value, the lender lease is informed of the gain or loss of sale between the purchase price and the sum of the land that is held. Yet this is not a equal value trade. The property's sale price is higher than its market value. Accordingly, the income or loss on sale seems to be the difference between the equal worth and the value of the land.

Therefore, on 1 January, White records a benefit of $90,000 in revenue of $770,000 (fair value of $680,000 in carrying amounts)

Smith Company reported pretax book income of $400,000. Included in the computation were favorable temporary differences of $50,0
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

$10,200

Explanation:

The computation of the deferred income tax expense or benefit is shown below:

Favorable temporary difference = $50,000

Less:  Unfavorable temporary difference -$20,000

Net favorable temporary difference $30,000

We assume the tax rate is of 34%

So, the deferred tax expense is

= $30,000 × 34%

= $10,200

By finding out the net favorable temporary difference and then multiplied with the tax rate we can get the deferred tax expense and the same is shown above

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Journal Entry

a) Debit Capital- Benson $138,000 Credit Capital-North $138,000

b) Debit Capital- Benson $138,000 Credit Capital-Schmidt $138,000

c) Debit Capital-Benson $138,000 Credit Bank $138,000

d) Debit Capital-Benson $138,000 Debit Capital-Meir $28,500 Debit Capital-Lau $47,500 Credit Bank $214,000

e) Debit Capital-Benson $138,000 Debit Accumulated Depreciation $23,000 Credit Cash $30,000 Credit Equipment $70,000 Credit Capital-Meir $22,875 Credit Capital-Lau $38,125

Explanation:

a and b are the same with the same amount of capital transferred from one partner to another partner, it is just a matter of derecognizing Benson and recognize North or Schmidt.

c) Partner Benson is paid cash her capital,

d) decrease in meir's Capital = 214,000-138,000 = 76,000*3/8= $28,500

   Decrease in Lau's Capital Account = $76,000 5/8 = 47,500

Excess funds are taken from capitals or income summary account of the partnership which will affect the capitals of the remaining partners

e)  Meir's Capital = $138,000 -(70,000-23,000+30,000)

                            = $138,000-77,000

                           = $61,000*3/8 =$22,875

Lau = $61,000*5/8 =38,125

The Capital Accounts of the remaining partners will increase because of the gain made on buying out the leaving partner.
