Freedom Co. purchased a new machine on July 2, 2019, at a total installed cost of $49,000. The machine has an estimated life of five years and an estimated salvage value of $6,600. Required: Calculate the depreciation expense for each year of the asset's life using: Straight-line depreciation. Double-declining-balance depreciation. How much depreciation expense should be recorded by Freedom Co. for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, under each method
Answer:. See explanation
Explanation:
1. The depreciation under the straight line method will be calculated as:
= ( cost - salvage value)/no of years
= (49000 - 6600)/5
= $42400/5
= $8480 per year
2. Using the Double-declining-balance depreciation, the depreciation will be calculated thus:
Double declining rate = 8480/42400 × 2 = 40%
Yr 1: beginning book value = $49000
Depreciation rate = 40%
Depreciation = $49000 × 0.4 = $19600
Ending book value = $29400
Yr 2: beginning book value = $29400
Depreciation rate = 40%
Depreciation = $29400 × 0.4 = $11760
Ending book value = $17640
Yr3: beginning book value = $17640
Depreciation rate = 40%
Depreciation = $17640 × 0.4 = $7056
Ending book value = $10584
Yr4: beginning book value = $10584
Depreciation rate = 40%
Depreciation = $3884 Savage value
Ending book value = $6700

Determine the promotional price of each item at each store. Item Original Price Discount (Dollars) $15.00 Off 40% Off (Dollars) (Dollars) A music box$75 $ $ A faux Ming vase$60.00 $ $ Suppose a friend of yours wants to buy a crystal candlestick. You remember seeing this item at both Annie's Attic and Betty's Breakables, but you do not remember the price. What advice should you give your friend in this situation
Answer:
Go to Betty breakables when the price of the crystal candle is > $37.5
Explanation:
Annie's attic offers $15 off any purchase
Betty breakables offers 40% off any purchase
For both stores
Music box = $75 ( non discounted price )
Faux Ming vase = $60 ( non discounted price )
Discounted prices for Music box
For Annie's attic = 75 - 15 = $60
For Betty breakables = 75 - ( 40% * 75 ) = $45
Discounted prices for Faux Ming vase
For Annie attic = 60 - 15 = $45
For Betty breakables = 60 - ( 40% *60 ) = $36
lets assume the price of the Crystal candle to be x
we will buy from betty breakables If 40% of x > $15 discount offered by Annie's
40/ 100 * x > 15
x > 100/40 * 15
x > 37.5
Go to Betty breakables when the price of the crystal candle is > $37.5
A deposit of $90 is placed into a college fund at the beginning of every week for 5 years. The fund earns 3% annual interest, compounded weekly, and paid at the end of the week. How much is in the account right after the last deposit
Answer:
$25,249.50
Explanation:
Deposit at the beginning of every 6 month (A) = 90
Time period (t) = 5
n = 52
Rate (r) = 3% = 0.03
So, the net amount in the account right after the last deposit is as follows:
= A * [(1+r/n)^(n*t) - 1 / r/n] * (1 + r/n)
= 90 * [(1+0.03/52)^(52*5) - 1 / 0.03/52] * (1 + 0.03/52)
= 90 * [(1.16178399147 - 1 / 0.000577] * (1+0.000577)
= 90 * 280.3882 * 1.000577
= 25249.498559226
= $25,249.50
Answer:
Explanation:
The value of the initial deposit is $90, so a1=90. A total of 260 weekly deposits are made in the 5 years, so n=260. To find r, divide the annual interest rate by 52 to find the weekly interest rate and add 1 to represent the new weekly deposit.
r=1+0.0352=1.00057692308
Substitute a1=90, n=260, and r=1.00057692308 into the formula for the sum of the first n terms of a geometric series and simplify to find the value of the annuity.
S260= 90(1−1.00057692308260) / 1−1.00057692308 ≈25238.31
Therefore, to the nearest dollar, the account has $25,238 after the last deposit is made.

Answer:
the total factor productivity (TFP) increase as a result of 2017 operations is 12.5%
Explanation:
The computation of the total factor productivity (TFP) increase as a result of 2017 operations is given below;
The Unit produced in 2016 is
= $20,000,000 x $0.09
= 1,800,000

Shawnee Hospital installs a new parking lot. The paving cost $30,000 and the lights to illuminate the new parking area cost $15,000. Which of the following statements is true with respect to these additions?
a. $30,000 should be debited to the Land account.
b. $15,000 should be debited to Land Improvements.
c. $45,000 should be debited to the Land account.
d. $45,000 should be debited to Land Improvements.
Answer: d. $45,000 should be debited to Land Improvements.
Explanation:
Land improvements records any moderation to land asset that is expected to add to its value and lasts for more than a year.
The paving and lighting of the parking area will add value to the area and will last longer than a year so both should go to the Land improvement account. As this account is an asset account, it will be debited when increased:
= 30,000 + 15,000

A consumer has $180 in monthly income to spend on two goods, D and G, where D is on the y-axis. The price of good D, PD is $6, and the marginal rate of transformation is -2. How many units of good G can be purchased if all income is used to purchase good G
Answer:
The number of units of good G that can be purchased if all income is used to purchase good G is 15 units.
Explanation:
Since D is on the y-axis, indicating G is on the x-axis, the formula for calculating the marginal rate of transformation (MRT) is given as follows:
MRT = - PG / PD …………………. (1)
Where:
MRT = Marginal rate of transformation = -2
PG = Price of good G = ?
PD = Price of good D = $6
Substituting the relevant values into equation (1) and solve for PG, we have:
-2 = - PG / $6
PG = -2 * (-6) = $12
Therefore, we have:
Number units of good G if all income is spent on it = Monthly income / PG = $180 / $12 = 15
Therefore, the number of units of good G that can be purchased if all income is used to purchase good G is 15 units.

The bonds mature October 31, 2041 (20 years). Interest is paid semiannually on April 30 and October 31 and is determined using the effective interest method. Required: 1. What amount of interest expense related to the bonds will LHD report in its income statement for the year ending December 31, 2021
Answer:
Lake Hamilton Development (LHD)
The amount of interest expense related to the bonds will LHD report in its income statement for the year ending December 31, 2021 is:
= $4,422.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
November 1, 2021
Face value of bonds issued = $500,000
Bonds issue price = 442,215
Discounts on bonds = $57,785
Maturity period = 20 years on October 31, 2041
Interest rate on the bonds = 5% paid semiannually
Interest payment dates = April 30 and October 31
Effective interest rate = 6%

A machine operates with the following production cycle: 34 minutes of setup, 70 minutes of production. While in production, the machine produces 3 parts per minute. What is the capacity of the machine in parts per minute
Answer:
The capacity of the machine is 3 parts per minunte
Explanation:
First calculate the total time
Total time = Setup time + Production time
Total time = 34 minutes + 70 minutes
Total time = 104 minutes
Calculate the total units
Total Units = Production per minute x Total Time
Total Units = 3 parts per minutes x 104 minutes
Total Units = 312 parts
Now calculate the parts per minute
Parts per minute = Total Units / Total Time
Parts per minute = 312 parts / 104 minutes
Parts per minute = 3 parts per minunte
Which theory would most likely explain why a commercial bank, which usually focuses on short-term securities, would switch to long-term securities due to a change in interest rates. pure expectation liquidity premium segmented market preferred habitat
Answer:
preferred habitat
Explanation:
According to the preferred habitat theory, if the expected returns from investment of a particular investment maturity is large enough, investors would shift from their preferred maturities.
In this question, there is a shift from the preferred maturity (short-term securities) to a long-term securities when interest rate changes
The pure expectations theory assumes that bonds of any maturity are perfect substitutes for each other. For example, if an investor buys a 10 year bond and holds it for 1 year, the return is the same as buying a 1 year bond. The theory also assumes that risk premium does not exist and a security only earns its risk free rate
Liquidity premium theory states that risk premium increases with the maturity of a bond. The theory predicts that the yield curve is upward sloping due to liquidity premium
According to the segmented market theory, each bond maturity segment can be thought of as a segment market in which yield are a function of the demand and supply for funds in that maturity.
On January 1, 2021, Baltimore Company issued $200,000 face value, 5%, 10-year bonds at 103. Baltimore uses the straight-line method for amortization. Use this information to determine the dollar value of the annual bond premium amortization. Round your answer to the nearest whole number (no cents).
Answer:
the dollar value of the annual bond premium amortization is $600
Explanation:
The computation of the dollar value of the annual bond premium amortization is shown below:
Interest paid ($200,000 × 5%) $10,000
Less: premium amortization ($200,000 × 0.03) ÷ 10) -$600
Dollar value of the interest expense $9,400
So, the dollar value of the annual bond premium amortization is $600
Annual bond premium amortized using straight-Line Method is $600.
What is straight-Line Method of Amortization of Bond?In the straight-Line Method, the bond premium or discount is charged/disbursed equally over the life of the bonds.
Given:
Face value of 5% bonds= $200,000
Maturity period= 10 years
Issue price of 5% bonds=103
Value of the annual bond premium amortization=
Interest paid=5% of $200,000=$10,000
Premium amortized= ($200,000 × 0.03) ÷ 10=$600
Interest expense=Interest paid-premium amortization
=$10,000-$600
=$9,400
Therefore, the annual bond premium amortization is $600

She estimates a 0.2 probability that she will gain 15% on the deal, a 0.2 probability that she will gain 10%, and a 0.6 probability that she will gain 5%. Liqin's expected return for fixing up and selling the Corvette is ____%. a. 8 b. 11 c. 20 d. 30
Answer:
a. 8%
Explanation:
Expected Return = [(Return*Probability)+(Return*Probability)+(Return*Probability) * 100%]
Expected Return = [{(15%*0.2)+(10%*0.2)+(5%*0.6)} * 100]%
Expected Return = [{(0.15*0.2)+(0.1*0.2)+(0.05*0.6)} * 100]%
Expected Return = [{0.03+0.02+0.03} * 100]%
Expected Return = [{0.08 * 100}]%
Expected Return = 8%
So, Liqin's expected return for fixing up and selling the Corvette is 8%.

An outside supplier offers to provide Epsilon with all the units it needs at $63.05 per unit. If Epsilon buys from the supplier, the company will still incur 35% of its overhead. Epsilon should choose to:
Answer:
Make since the relevant cost to make it is $59.05
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what Epsilon should choose to:
Relevant costs to make = 8.20 + 24.20 + [41*(100%-35%)]
Relevant costs to make = 8.20 + 24.20 + (41*65%)
Relevant costs to make = 8.20 + 24.20 + 26.65
Relevant costs to make =$59.05
Therefore Epsilon should choose to: MAKE SINCE THE RELEVANT COST TO MAKE IT IS $59.05
Throughout the year an auto parts warehouse places several orders for a high-volume automobile air filter. The demand for this air filter is very stable (flat) and the lead time from the supplier is very reliable (no variation), consequently the warehouse holds virtually no safety stock for this item. When placing orders for this air filter the warehouse uses an order quantity of 170 units and pays an annual holding cost of $2.00 per unit per year.
How much will the warehouse pay in total annual holding costs for this air filter? (Display your answer to the nearest whole number.)
Answer: $170
Explanation:
The amount that the warehouse will pay in total annual holding costs for this air filter will be calculated thus:
Order quantity(Q) = 170 units
Holding cost(H) = $2.00 per unit per year
Total annual holding cost will be:
= (Order quantity/2) × Holding cost
= (170/2) × 2.00
= 85 × 2.00
= $170
The annual holding cost is $170
You sell one December futures contracts when the futures price is $1,010 per unit. Each contract is on 100 units and the initial margin per contract that you provide is $2,000. The maintenance margin per contract is $1,500. During the next day the futures price falls to $1,008 per unit. What is the balance of your margin account at the end of the day? a. $3,700b. $1,800c. $2,200d. $1,500
Answer:
b. $1800
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the balance of your margin account at the end of the day
Margin account balance=$2,000-[100*($1008-$1010)]
Margin account balance=$2,000-(100*$2)
Margin account balance=$2,000-$200
Margin account balance=$1,800
Therefore the balance of your margin account at the end of the day is $1,800
