Answer:

c. $50,000.

Explanation:

Depreciation: The depreciation is a non-cash expense that shows a reduction in the value of the fixed assets due to tear and wear, obsolesce, usage, time period, etc. It is shown on the debit side of the income statement.

The computation of the depreciation expense under the straight line method is shown below:

= (Original cost - expected salvage value) ÷ (estimated life of the equipment)

= ($360,000 - $60,000) ÷ (6 years)

= ($300,000) ÷ (6 years)  

= $50,000

In this method, the depreciation is same for all the remaining useful life

swat32

Answer:

Company's assets at the end of Year 2 were provided by creditors = 20%

Explanation:

<u>Calculation of Cash at the end of Year 2 </u>

Cash balance at the end of Year 1     $600

Less: Paid off to notes payable          ($500)

Add: Earned cash revenue                 $700

Less: Paid cash expenses                   ($400)

Less: Paid cash dividend                     <u>($100)</u>

Cash balance at the end of Year 2    <u>$300</u>

Notes payable at the end of Year 2 = Beginning balance - Paid off

= $1,000 - $500

= $500

<u>Calculation of Notes Payable at the end of Year 2 </u>

Notes Payable at the end of Year 1     $1000

Less: Paid off to notes payable            <u>($500)</u>

Notes Payable at the end of Year 2 <u>$500</u>

Total assets at the end of Year 2 = Cash + Land

= $300+2200

= $2500

Creditors at the end of the Year 2 (Notes payable) = $500

Company's assets at the end of Year 2 were provided by creditors = Creditors * 100 / Total assets

= $500 * 100 / $2500

= 20%
