You work as an assistant coach on the university swim team and earn $13 per hour. One day, you decide to skip the hour-long prac

Olegator [25]

Answer:

The answer is: $22

Explanation:

In order to calculate the cost of skipping practice, we have to calculate the total sum of the deficit incurred within the period, and this includes the money that would have been earned during that hour of practice if it had been attended (opportunity cost of time), and the admission fee into the carnival. This calculation is shown below:

Opportunity cost of time = $13

cost of admission into carnival = $9

Total cost of skipping practice = opportunity cost of time + cost of admission into carnival

= 13 + 9 = $22

Gekko, Inc. reported the following balances (after adjustment) at the end of 2008 and 2007.

nevsk [136]

Answer:

Correct answer is D, P3,900

Explanation:

Begging Allowance for doubtful account is P1,500 (96,000 - 94,500). Ending balance of Allowance for doubtful account is P3,000 (P108,000 -P105,000). We can now work back the provision for doubtful accounts that the company has made during 2008.

Beginning P1,500

Add:

Collection of written off accounts 800

Total P2,300

Less:

Written off 3,200

Total (P900)

Therefore, in order for the company to have an ending inventory of P3,000, They must have set up a provision for doubtful accounts in the amount of P3,900. Attached herewith is the T-account of allowance for doubtful accounts

likoan [24]

Answer:

Accumulated depreciation for Years 1 - 5 under:

the Straight-line method is $90,000.
the Units-of-production method is $90,000.
the Double-declining-balance method is $86,170.

Explanation:

The total cost of the asset is $90,000 + $3,000 + $1,500 + $4,500 = $99,000, since all the other costs were directly attributable cost and were necessary to bring the asset to usable form.

The painting is capitalized because it is the first time Trust Delivery would be using the asset, otherwise it would have been expended
Overhauling cost can be regarded as a separate asset, if we were provided with different useful lives - componentization.

Under straight-line method, depreciation expense is (cost - residual value) / No of years = ($99,000 - $9,000) / 5 years = $18,000 yearly depreciation expense.

Accumulated depreciation for Years 1 to 5 is $18,000 x 5 years $90,000.

The unit-of-production method is used when the asset value closely relates to the units of output it is able to produce. It is expressed with the formula below:

(Original Cost - Salvage value) / Estimated production capacity x Units/year

At Year 1, depreciation expense (DE) is: ($99,000 - $9,000) / 100,000 miles x 22,500 miles = $20,250/year

Accumulated depreciation for the first four years is $20,250 x 4 years = $81,000.

At Year 5, depreciation = $90,000 / 100,000 miles x 10,000 miles = $9,000

Note that this depreciation method results in higher depreciation charge when the asset is heavily used, at this time, it was in Years 1 - 4.

Accumulated depreciation expense for Years 1 to 5, under this method, is $90,000 (addition of first four years and the Year 5).

The double-declining method is otherwise known as the reducing balance method and is given by the formula below:

Double declining method = 2 X SLDP X BV

SLDP = straight-line depreciation percentage

BV = Book value

SLDP is 100%/5years = 20%, then 20% multiplied by 2 to give 40%

At Year 1, 40% X $99,000 = $39,600

At Year 2, 40% X $59,400 ($99,000 - $39,600) = $23,760

At Year 3, 40% X $35,640 ($59,400 - $23,760) = $14,256

At Year 4, 40% X $21,384 ($35,640 - $14,256) = $8,554 approximately (the depreciation expense would stop at this stage since the amount falls below the residual value).

Accumulated depreciation expense for Years 1 to 4, under this method, is $86,170 (addition of all the yearly depreciation).

Sadie sold 10 shares of stock to her brother, George, for $500 16 months ago. Sadie had purchased the stock for $600 two years e

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

there is gain and receive is $100 long term gain

Explanation:

given data

Sadie sold = 10 shares

Sadie sold shares of stock = $500

time = 16 year ago

Sadie purchased the stock = $600

time = 2 year earlier

George sells stock = $700

to find out

amount and character of his recognized gain or loss in the current year

solution

we know that George receives dual basis in the stock

his loss = $600 - $500 = $100

and

if we consider stock is sold at a gain

then George receives a carryover basis = $600

and

if we consider stock is sold at a loss

then George receives = $500

also here his sister basis and holding period is transfer to her brother

so we can say there is gain

and receive is = proceed - carryover basis

receive is = $700 - $600

receive is $100 long term gain

Ruby Corporation, a calendar year, accrual method C corporation, has two cash method, calendar year shareholders who are unrelat

telo118 [61]

Answer:

Explanation:

Answer:

$200000 + $200000 +$50000(to COLE's bonus)

= $450000

Ruby corporation uses accrual method.

A corporation that is using accrual method, cannot claim a deduction for an accrual with respect to a related party until the recipient reports that amount as income.

Here, Cole owns more than 50% (55%) so its a related party and it will report bonus on february 1,2017

Therefore, Ruby can not deduct bonus payable to oliver in 2016

Hence total deductible in 2017 would be $450000.
