a three-bedroom lodge in upper Montana that will cost $250,000. The property in the area is rapidly appreciating in value because people anxious to get away from urban developments are bidding up the prices. If Clarisa spends an average of $500 per month for utilities and the investment increases at a rate of 2% per month, how long would it be before she could sell the property for $100,000 more than she has in

Answer:

18.5 months approximately

Explanation:

initial investment x (1 + appreciation rate)ⁿ = initial investment + $100,000 + ($500 x n)

$250,000 x (1 + 2%)ⁿ = $350,000 + $500n

1.02ⁿ = $350,000/$250,000 + $500n/$250,000

1.02ⁿ = 1.4 + 0.002n

I tried to solve it by trial and error:

50 months:

2.69 ≠ 1.5

40 months:

2.21 ≠ 1.48

30 months:

1.81 ≠ 1.46

20 months:

1.49 ≈ 1.44 ⇒ getting closer

18 months:

1.43 ≈ 1.44 ⇒ almost

18.5 months:

1.44 = 1.44 ✓

Answer:

No information given regarding depreciation method Therefore, it is assume P.T Scope Company will use the Straight line Depreciation Method in order to get book value on Dec 31, 2012 and Book value computer system is $1080.

Explanation:

Using Straight line depreciation method the value of Computer system at Dec 31, 2012 is $1080

Depreciation = (cost of asset - Salvage value) / Useful life of asset

Note: In straight line depreciation method the depreciation expense remain constant as it based on the original cost of assets.

Depreciation expense on Dec 31, 2011 = ($3240 - 0 ) / 3 = $1080

Book value on Dec 31, 2011 = $3240 - $1080 = $2160

Depreciation expense on Dec 31, 2012 = ($3240 - 0 ) / 3 = $1080  

Book value on Dec 31, 2012 = $2160 - $1080 = $1080

Straight line depreciation method calculate book value based on the original cost and book value is calculated using Year starting value minus Depreciation expense. Hence, Book value reduce as asset continue to use in business until it reaches to zero or salvage value.
