kakasveta [241]

Answer:

Joshua statement is correct.

Explanation:

Marginal cost:

Is the cost of producing a new unit.

Average Cost:

$\frac{Fixed Cost + Variable Cost}{UnitsProduced} = $Average Cost$

$\frac{Fixed Cost}{UnitsProduced} + $Variable Cost Per Unit= Average Cost$

If the marginal cost of this plant is lower than their other plants, it can decrease his average cost by increasing the amount produced.

This increase in production decrease the impact of the fixed cost in the unit price. At more production the average cost will decrease. Because the variable cost keeps at the same value but the fixed cost per unit decrease.

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

$10,000

Explanation:

Depreciation is charged to every asset based on the life and usage of such asset.

Straight line depreciation method charges equivalent depreciation each year of the useful life of the asset.

Here, as provided straight line depreciation = $\frac{Cost\ of\ asset\ - Salvage\ value}{Life\ of\ asset}$

Here, cost of asset = $48,000

Salvage value = $8,000

Thus, numerator in fraction = $48,000 - $8,000 = $40,000

Useful life of the asset = 4 years

Therefore, depreciation expense for each year = $\frac{40,000}{4\ years} = 10,000$

It will be same for each year, therefore, depreciation expense for year 2 = $10,000
