On January 1, 2015, Danville Corporation acquired a machine at a cost of $60,000. The machine's service life was estimated to be ten years and its residual value to be $6,000. The straight-line method was used for depreciation. On January 1, 2020, the machine was no longer useful and was sold for $3,000. For 2020, in regard to this machine, how much of a loss should Danville record

Answers

Answer:

Loss= $30,000

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the annual depreciation and the accumulated depreciation at the moment of the sale:

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation= (60,000 - 6,000) / 10

Annual depreciation= $5,400

Accumulated depreciation= 5,400*5= $27,000

Now, the book value and loss from the sale:

Book value= 60,000 - 27,000= $33,000

Loss= selling price - book value

Loss= 33,000 - 3,000

Loss= $30,000

Answers

Answer:

A. the assimilation process.

Explanation:

It is correct to state that the period of time in which people start a new job, adjust and settle down is called the assimilation process, which corresponds to a process in which the individual adapts to changes that will impact their way of living in society.

Assume the following for the town of Boone: it has a total population of 40,000 people, of which 1,000 are under 16 years of age or are institutionalized: 5,000 are full-time students who are not employed and are not seeking work; and 30,000 are employed. The rest of the people are out of work but have been actively seeking work within the past four weeks. What is Boone's unemployment rate?
Round your answer to 1 decimal place
__________ percent

Answers

Answer:

Unemployment rate = 0.1176 or 11.76%

Explanation:

Given total population = 40000

Blow 16 years = 1000

Full time student = 5000

Employed = 30000

Unemployed people = 40000 - 1000 - 5000 - 30000

Unemployed people = 4000

Unemployment rate = Unemployed people / (employed + unemployed)

Unemployment rate = 4000/ (30000 + 4000)

Unemployment rate = 0.1176 or 11.76%

If workers and firms have rational expectations, they understand that ________ monetary policy will raise the inflation rate, so actual inflation ________ expected inflation. contractionary; will be equal to expansionary; will be less than expansionary; will be equal to contractionary; will be less than expansionary; will be greater than

Answers

Answer:

expansionary; will be equal to

Explanation:

Remember, monetary policies are basically divided into:

expansionary monetary policy, andcontractionary monetary policy.

Indeed, as the name implies, the expansionary monetary policy is meant to in a sense boost up economic growth in terms of reducing interest rates thereby theoretically increasing spending and also leading to an increase in the money supply. When there is an increase in the money supply, this thus leads to an increased inflation rate, which would be expected if workers and firms have rational expectations.

In 2020, Courtney, 16 and a dependent of her mother, had earned income of $4,000 and interest income (unearned) of $9,500. What is Courtney's federal income tax liability (before credits)? Courtney's mother is in the 35% marginal tax bracket.

Answers

Answer:

The Tax Liability is $1,400

Explanation:

Income is only taxable when it is earned. Any unearned income is not taxable

As unearned income is not taxable then there will be no tax on the unearned interest income of $9,500.

The only taxable income is earned income of $4,000

Use the following formula to calculate the tax liability

Tax liability = Taxable income x Tax rate

Where

Taxable income = $4,000

Tax rate = 35%

Placing values in the formula

Tax liability = $4,000 x 35%

Tax liability = $1,400
