Answer:
The balance in the accumulated depreciation account at the end of the second year is $146,000.
Explanation:
Straight line method charges a <u>fixed depreciation charge</u> on the asset during its period of use.
Depreciation Expense (Straight line) = Cost - Residual Amount ÷ Estimated Useful life
= $778,000 - $48,000 ÷ 10
= $73,000
Therefore, for each year, a depreciation expense of $73,000 is charged to profit an loss.
Accumulated Depreciation Calculation :
Depreciation Expense : Year 1 $73,000
Depreciation Expense : Year 2 $73,000
Total Expense $146,000

Answer:
B. The portfolio expected rate of return must be the same for each economic state.
Explanation:
Variance formula = sum of (probability x (r - mean)^2)

Hence the correct option is B. The portfolio expected rate of return must be the same for each economic state.
