Q 9.26: Crawford Trucking plans to dispose of two trucks in 2018. They sell the first truck on January 2 and the second truck on

deff fn [24]

Answer:

Crawford Trucking

Calculation of book value for disposal of two vehicles:

a) The Truck sold on January 2 would not have depreciation expenses computed for it. The book value on January 1 would be the same on January 2. It is not practical to compute depreciation expense for 1 day.

b) The Truck sold on July 9 would have depreciation computed for the year 2018 pro rated for six months. The book value would be less than the Truck sold on January 2.

Explanation:

Depreciation expense may be pro rated depending on the prevailing circumstances. This becomes necessary because the sold unit may not be fully utilized for the period under review. Under the matching principle of generally accepted accounting principles, it is imperative to match revenue to the period they were incurred.

QUESTION 1:

The horizontal axis measures an economy's real GDP- 3

QUESTION 2:

As price level rises, imports become relatively cheaper than domestically produced goods- 1

Explanation:

QUESTION 1

The horizontal axis of the aggregate demand and aggregate supply measures an economy's real GDP. The GDP is the sum of all the final goods and services produced in the economy while the vertical axis of an aggregate supply and aggregate demand diagram measures the price index level.

QUESTION 2

When domestic interest rate is low compared to foreign interest rates, domestic investors invest in foreign countries where return on investments is higher. Increased outflow of currency to foreign countries, causes a decrease in real exchange rate. This decrease, increases net exports. This then, increases aggregate demand. As the price level drops, interest rates fall, investment in foreign countries becomes increased, real exchange rate falls, net exports increases and the aggregate demand then increases.

Answer:

The firm's sustainable growth rate is 13%.

Explanation:

The firm's sustainable growth rate can be calculated using the following formula:

Sustainable growth rate = Retention Rate * Return on Equity ............. (1)

Where;

Dividend payout ratio = 30%, or 0.30

Retention rate = 1 - dividend payout ratio = 1 - 0.30 = 0.70

Shareholder's equity = Total assets - Total debt = $913,600 - $424,500 = $489,100

Return on equity = Net income / Shareholder's equity = $94,000 / $489,100 = 0.19

Substituting the relevant values into equation (1), we have:

Sustainable growth rate = 0.70 * 0.19 = 0.13, or 13%

Therefore, the firm's sustainable growth rate is 13%.
