Answer:

$4,265.55

Explanation:

Future value = $120,000

Interest rate (i) = 5%

Annual deposit = ?

Time period (n) = 18 year

Since deposit are to be made at the beginning of each year, hence the relevant factor table to be used is future value annuity due factor table.

Future value = Annual deposit x future value annuity due factor (i%, n)

120,000 = Annual deposit x FVADF (5%, 18period)

120,000 = Annual deposit x 28.13238

Annual deposit = 120,000/28.13238

=$4,265.547

=$4,265.55

Lusk corporation produces and sells 20,000 units of product x each month. the selling price of product x is $30 per unit, and va
balandron [24]

From economics, we know that the formula for Profit is:

Profit = Income – Total Cost

Case 1: Continue producing and selling product x

income is calculated as:

Income = ($30 / unit) * (20, 000 units)

Income = $ 600, 000

Total cost is composed of both the fixed cost and variable cost:

Total cost = Variable cost + Fixed cost

Total cost = ($21 / unit) * (20, 000 units) + $250,000

Total cost = $670, 000

Therefore, the profit of producing and selling product x each month is:

Profit = $ 600, 000 - $670, 000

<span>Profit 1= - $70, 000        (decifit)</span>

 

Case 2: Discontinue producing and selling product x

Since there is no income but there is unavoidable fixed cost of $50,000, therefore:

<span>Profit 2 = - $50, 000       (deficit)</span>

 

The company’s overall net operating income would be the change in profit (deficit in this case):

Net operating income = Profit 2 – Profit 1

Net operating income = - $50, 000 – (- $70, 000)

Net operating income = $20, 000

 

<span>Therefore discontinuing product x would result in an increase in the overall net operating income by $20,000 per month.</span>

Oscar owns a building that is destroyed in a hurricane. His adjusted basis in the building before the hurricane is $130,000. His
Alinara [238K]

Answer: $132,000

Explanation:

Oscar's new basis on the building will be the basis of the old building plus any additional investment he added.

This is the because there is no gain on the $140,000 he received because it was an Involuntary Conversion amount and he reinvested it into another building within a period of 2 years.

As there is no gain, the building will retain it's original basis but will add any amount outside the involuntary replacement cost of the building.

The Additional basis will be,

= Cost of building - Insurance

= 142,000 - 140,000

= $2,000

The Basis for the new building is,

= 130,000 + 2,000

= $132,000
