Due to impending labor strife over planned layoffs in its Silicon Valley headquarters, a social networking company has decided t

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

putting a halt on the layoffs

Explanation:

This strategy should begin by putting a halt on the layoffs. This should be top priority since the layoffs themselves are the main cause for the criticism that the company is receiving and this criticism is the sole reason as to why its market position and staff productivity has fallen drastically. People think the company is failing and the staff is scared that they will eventually be fired. By stopping layoffs and waiting for a market recovery you give other better options a chance to arise and more efficient strategies to take effect.

Auditors may decide to perform some tests of controls or not perform any tests of controls, if inherent risk is assessed as ____

Ivanshal [37]

Answer: Moderate or low

Explanation:

Tests of Control are one by auditors to determine the effectiveness of the internal controls in the company in being able to detect accounting errors and anomalies.

If a company seems to have a moderate or low inherent risk the Auditors may or may not initiate Tests of Control due to this reduced risk.

If the company however, has either high or moderate or unusually high risk, the Auditors have to perform Tests of Control to determine where the company is going wrong.

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

Explanation:

Depreciation is the systematic allocation of the cost of a machine over its useful lifetime.

There are different types of depreciation like the straight line , double declining and the units of production method.

<u>Workings</u>

Depreciable amount = 120,000-5000 = 115,000

Useful life = 4 years

Depreciation rate = 115000/4 = 25% = 28,750

2015 2016 2017 2018

Straight line depreciation 28,750 28,750 28,750 28,750

Double declining

Double declining rate = 25%*2 = 50%

2015 = 50% * 115,000= 57,500

2016

Opening book value = 115,000-57,500 = 57500

Depreciation = 57,500*50% = 28,750

2017

Opening book value = 57500-28,750 =28750

Depreciation = 50%*28,750 =14,375

2018

Opening book value 28750-14375 = 14375

Depreciation = 14375*50% = 7188

Units of production

2015 = 280000/1150,000*115,000 = 28,000

2016 =430,000/1150000*115000 = 43,000

2017= 360000/1150000*115000 = 36,000

2018 = 80,000/1150000*115000 = 8000

B

IF the machine was bought on July 1, 2015

Straight line depreciation

2015 = (25%*115000 ) /2 = 14,375

2016 =25%* 115,000 = 28,750

2017 = 25%*115000 = 28750

2018 = 25%*115,000 =28750

2019 =(25%*115000)/2 = 14,375

Double declining method

2015

(115,000*50,000)/2 =28750

2016

Opening book value =115,000-28750 =86250

Depreciation = 50%*86250 = 43,125

2017

Opening book value =86250-43125 =43125

Depreciation = 43,125*50% = 21,563

2018

Opening book value

43125-21563 =21562

Depreciation = 21562*50% =10,781

2019

Opening book value = 21562-10781 =10781

Depreciation = 50%*10781 = 5391

In 2020, Ensley drove her automobile 28,500 miles. She incurred the following expenses during the year related to the automobile

JulsSmile [24]

Answer: $2722

Explanation:

Ensley's automobile deduction under the actual cost method is calculated below:

Gas and oil = $1800

Add: Insurance = $980

Add: Repairs = $360

Add: Licenses and registration fees = $50

Total Expenses = $3190

We then calculate the business usage which will be:

= 80% of $3190

= 0.8 × $3190

= $2552

We then add the cost of business parking and tolls, then the total deduction will be:

= $2552 + $170

= $2722
