Answer:

Please see the calculation explanation below and the depreciation expense chart for all methods is attached.

Explanation:

1. STRAIGHT-LINE DEPRECIATION METHOD:

Depreciation Expense = (Total Cost - Residual Value) / Useful Life

Depreciation Expense = ($70,000 - $10,000) / 3 years

Depreciation Expense = $60,000 / 3 years

Depreciation Expense = $20,000 per year

2. DOUBLE DECLINING BALANCE DEPRECIATION METHOD:

Depreciation Expense Rate = (100% / Useful Life) x 2

Depreciation Expense Rate = (100% / 3) x 2

Depreciation Expense Rate = 66.67%

2013: 

Depreciation Expense = $70,000 x 66.67% = $46,667

2014: 

Depreciation Expense = ($70,000 - $46,667) x 66.67% = $15,556

Since the residual value is $10,000 and as per Double Declining Balance Method, the point at which Book Value is equal to the residual value, no depreciation is taken.

Depreciation Expense = (Total Cost - Residual Value) - (Accumulated Depreciation)

Depreciation Expense = ($70,000 - $10,000) - ($46,667)

Depreciation Expense = $13,333

2015: 

No Depreciation Expense for year 3, as Book value is already equal to residual value in year 2.

3. PER HOUR DEPRECIATION METHOD:

2013:

Depreciation Cost per hour = (Engine Hours in 2013 / Total Engine Hours) x (Total Cost - Residual Value)

Depreciation Cost per hour = (500 / 1,200) x ($70,000 - $10,000)

Depreciation Cost per hour = $25,000

2014: 

Depreciation Cost per hour = (Engine Hours in 2014 / Total Engine Hours) x (Total Cost - Residual Value)

Depreciation Cost per hour = (400 / 1,200) x ($70,000 - $10,000)

Depreciation Cost per hour = $20,000

2015: 

Depreciation Cost per hour = (Engine Hours in 2015 / Total Engine Hours) x (Total Cost - Residual Value)

Depreciation Cost per hour = (300 / 1,200) x ($70,000 - $10,000)

Depreciation Cost per hour = $15,000

Gator Corporation manufactures several types of accessories. For the year, the gloves and mittens line had sales of $480,000, va

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

The company will lose $85,000 if the product line is discontinued

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales= 480,000

variable expenses= (360,000)

Contribution margin= 120,000

fixed expenses= (140,000)

Net operating income= (20,000)

If Gator eliminates the line, $35,000 of fixed costs will remain.

We need to determine the effect on income if the product line is discontinued.

Effect on income= fixed costs - net operating income

Effect on income= -105,000 - (-20,000)

Effect on income= -85,000

The company will lose $85,000 if the product line is discontinued

Which of the following describes business-to-business (B2B) e-commerce purchases? Group of answer choices Customers bid on items

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Pricing can vary for each customer.

Explanation:

Under the B2B, the manufacturer sells its products directly to other businesses such as wholesalers or retailers and not the end consumers.

Hence, pricing can vary for each customer in a business-to-business (B2B) e-commerce purchases because companies that are engaged in B2B are able to improve their performance and cut down the costs of procurement for goods and services.

Business to business (B2B) markets differ from Business to consumers (B2C) markets because salespeople personally call on business customers to a far greater extent than they do consumers.
