Swifty Company uses the units-of-activity method in computing depreciation. A new plant asset is purchased for $41000 that will

cluponka [151]

Answer:

depreciation rate per unit $0.34

Explanation:

To calculate the depreciation cost per unit we divide the amount subject to depreciation by the estimated untis production over its useful life:

depreciable amount:

$41,000 - $3,600 = $ 37,400

depreciation rate:

$37,400 / 110,000 units = $0.34

. Alternative A has a first cost of $20,000, an operating cost of $9,000 per year, and a $5,000 salvage value after 5 years. Alt

JulsSmile [24]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

NPW of X is

= -$20,000 - $9,000 × (P/A,12%,5) + $5,000 × (P/F,12%,5)

= -$20,000 - $9,000 × 3.604776 + $5,000 × 0.567427

= -$49,605.85

And,

NPW of Y is

= -$35,000 - $4,000 × (P/A,12%,5) + $7,000 × (P/F,12%,5)

= -$35,000 - $4,000 × 3.604776 + $7,000 × 0.567427

= -$45,447.11

Based on the above calculations as we can see that net present cost of Y is lower than the net present cost of X so Y should be selected

A publisher reports that 55% of their readers own a particular make of car. a marketing executive wants to test the claim that t

Dominik [7]

Based on the percentage of readers who own a particular make of the car and the random sample, we can infer that there is sufficient evidence at a 0.02 level to support the executive claim.

<h3>What is the evidence to support the executive's claim?</h3>

The hypothesis is:

Null hypothesis : P = 0.55

Alternate hypothesis : P ≠ 0.55

We then need to find the test statistic:

= (Probability found by marketing executive - Probability from publisher) / √( (Probability from publisher x (1 - Probability from publisher))/ number of people sampled

= (0.46 - 0.55) / √(( 0.55 x ( 1 - 0.55)) / 200

= -2.56

Using this z value as the test statistic, perform a two-tailed test to show:

= P( Z < -2.56) + P(Z > 2.56)

= 0.0052 + 0.0052

= 0.0104

The p-value is 0.0104 which is less than the significance level of 0.02. This means that we reject the null hypothesis.

The Marketing executive was correct.

On January 1, Year 1, Frost Co. entered into a 2-year lease agreement with Ananz Co. to lease a new computer. The lease term beg

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Frost (Lessee) and Ananz (Lessor)

The circumstance that would require Frost to classify and account for the arrangement as a finance lease is:

c. The economic life of the computers is three years.

Explanation:

a) Data:

Annual lease payments = $8,000

Present value of the minimum lease payments = $13,000

Fair value of the computer = $14,000

The economic life of the computers = 3 years

The lease period = 2 years

b) One of the conditions for classifying the lease arrangement as a finance lease is that the lease term of 2 years forms a significant part of the asset's useful life of 3 years. Other conditions include:

Firstly, ownership of the asset is transferred to the lessee at the end of the lease term. The second condition is that the lessee can purchase the asset below its fair value.

Administrative restructuring; done at managerial level for effective decision making and delegation of power down the order.

<u> Explanation: </u>

According to the narration given in the above statement the general manager is of the view that too much layer of manager will hamper the decision making and effective delegation of work.

So, after a detailed study of manager’s role and responsibility at the level he decided to downsize the structure from 10 managers to 3 managers who will report to him for making effective decisions.

He has delegated power to the new managers and by doing so it has reduced the burden of the Joe. By doing this the organisation objectives and goals can be met at the targeted time.
