Times interest earned ratio = (Earnings before interest and taxes) ÷ (Interest expense)

= $600 ÷ $250

What factors contribute to commerce

Burka [1]

Different factors contribute to commerce including the export and import of a country, their ease of doing business and their own situation in the market.

Explanation:

The factors that affect commerce are the ones that dictate the face of a given market. if the market is considered easy to trade in then the commerce is supposed to be easy and smooth flowing

This is hampered by laws and the import and export tariffs of a country. The more inviting these are the more commerce happens in a place.

It also depends on how many businesses are able to function in the setup and the more businesses there are the more commerce happens in the end.

After purchasing a coffee cup from your local gas station for $5.00, you can always refill your cup for $0.50. The sunk cost of

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

$4.50

Explanation:

The sunk cost is the cost that has been incurred and is unrecoverable in the process of taking a financing decision.

If the cost of a coffee cup from a local gas station cost $5.00 and the cost of refill is $0.50, the coffee is the actual element needed and from the refill, it can be estimated that it costs $0.50.

Hence the sunk or unrecoverable cost is the difference between the coffee cup and the refill cost

= $5.00 - $0.50

= $4.50

Cr Accumulated depreciation $4800.83

Explanation:

There are two policies for depreciating non-current asset especially when it is acquired part-way through the year like we have here, namely full year depreciation in the year of purchase and none in the year of disposal or proportional depreciation throughout the useful life,I am adopting the former in this question.

Formula for depreciation=cost-residual value/useful life

Yearly depreciation is ($57200-$0)/10=$5720

However,after two years the book value is calculated thus:

Book value=$57200-($5720*2)=$45760

additional cost incurred in enhancing the capacity of the asset would be added : $45760 +$11,850=$57610

Since the useful life has also been reviewed up to 12 years, the depreciation from now on is $57610/12=$4800.83
