Answer:

A.

Depreciation Expense for the first year: $14,400

For the second year’s depreciation expense: $11,520

B.

The depreciation expense for the first year is equal to the second year’s depreciation expense = $7,200

Explanation:

A.Using the straight-line method, the asset has a useful life of 10 years, meaning its annual depreciation represents 10% of the depreciable cost.

Calculating the depreciable cost results in = Total cost of the asset - salvage value =  $80,000-$8,000 = $72,000

With the double-declining-balance method, the straight-line rate of 10% is increased to 20%, which is then applied to the book value of the depreciable cost at the start of each year.

For the first year, the depreciation expense is calculated as 20% of $72,000  = $14,400

At the onset of the second year, the book value of the depreciable cost is $72,000 -$14,400 = $57,600

The depreciation expense for the second year is then 20% of $57,600  = $11,520

B.

The organization adopts straight-line depreciation, calculating Depreciation Expense for each year using the following formula:  

Depreciation Expense = (Cost of the machine − salvage value)/Useful Life = ($80,000-$8,000)/10 = $7,200

Thus, the first year’s Depreciation Expense = the same value as the second year’s depreciation expense = $7,200

Greg sold an apartment building he owned for 20 years. He paid $100,000 for it, and made $300,000 worth of improvements. His dep
Free_Kalibri [3151]

Response:

Greg's profit from the apartment sale = $590,000

Details:

Cost of purchase = $100,000

Renovations = $300,000

Overall Initial Cost = Cost of Purchase + Renovations

Overall Initial Cost = $100,000 + $300,000

Overall Initial Cost = $400,000

Depreciation over 20 Years = Yearly Depreciation * 20

= $2,500 * 20

= $50,000

Net Value after 20 Years = Initial Cost - Depreciation over 20 Years

= $400,000 - $50,000

= $350,000

Capital Gain = Net Sale Price - Net Value

When Net Sale Price = Selling Price - Commission

= $1,000,000 - $60,000

= $940,000

Thus, Capital Gain = Net Sale Price - Net Value

Capital Gain = $940,000 - $350,000

Capital Gain = $590,000

Katen [2895]
If Airbnb guests in Malibu begin to pay hotel taxes, it could lead to an increase in the equilibrium price in that market, thus reducing overall efficiency. The equilibrium price is defined as the point at which the supply of goods and services matches consumer demand. An increase in the equilibrium price would result in decreased efficiency as supply and demand would no longer align.
