Depreciation expense= ($212,000-$12,000/8×3/12)
Depreciation expense=($200,000/8×3/12)
Depreciation expense=$25,000×3/12
Depreciation expense=$6,250
(b) Computation depreciation expense using Activity method (units of output) for 2020
Depreciation expense=($212,000-$12,000/$40,000)×$1000
Depreciation expense=($200,000/$40,000)×$1,0000
Depreciation expense=5×$1,000
Depreciation expense=$5000
(c) Computation for depreciation expense using Activity method (working hours) for 2020
Depreciation expense=($212,000-$12,000/$20,000)×525 hours Depreciation expense=($200,000/$20,000)×525 hours
Depreciation expense=$10× 525 hours
Depreciation expense=$5250
(d) Computation for depreciation expense using the Sum of the years digits method for 2022
Depreciation expense=($212,000-$20,000×7/36×9/1)2+($212,000-$12,000×6/36×3/12)
Depreciation expense=($200,000×7/36×9/12)+($200,000×6/36×3/12)
Depreciation expense=$29,166 +$8,333
Depreciation expense=$37,500

B. Produce less than 1,000 units
C. Produce more than 1,000 units

A stock has a correlation with the market of 0.46. The standard deviation of the market is 29%, and the standard deviation of the stock is 37%. What is the stock's beta?
Answer:
Beta = 0.586896 rounded off to 0.59
Explanation:
A beta is a measure of the systematic risk of the stock. The systematic risk is the risk associated with the stock which cannot be diversified and is due to the market factors. This is why it is also known as the market risk. The beta of a stock can be calculated using the correlation of a stock with the market and the standard deviation of the stock and the market. The formula for beta is,
Beta = Correlation of stock with market * (SD Stock / SD market)
Where,
SD refers to the standard deviationBeta = 0.46 * (0.37 / 0.29)
Beta = 0.586896 rounded off to 0.59

Complete/Correct Question:
Policymakers are discussing various proposals regarding how to deal with natural monopolies. Senator Huff wants to regulate natural monopolies by equating price with average total cost. Huff contends that such a policy will ensure that monopolies make every effort to reduce costs. Senator Puff wants the government to own natural monopolies. Puff argues that government-owned monopolies usually do a better job of holding down costs than privately owned monopolies. Which senator's argument is correct?
a. Senator Huff
b. Senator Puff
c. both senators
d. neither senator
Answer:
D, neither senator
Explanation:
Neither senator Huff or Puff have correct arguments about dealing with natural monopolies.
Monopolies are meant to be regulated to protect consumers. This means that rather than the government owning monopolies or equating price and average cost as suggested by the two senators, the government can instead change the laws and/or lift any restrictions that will break the monopoly.

"An investor has sold short stock worth $45,000 in a margin account, depositing the margin requirement. If the market value of the stock falls to $30,000, what is the Selling Power in the account?"
Answer:
$45,000
Explanation:
Credits = $45,000
Short Market Value = $45,000
Equity % = Credits - Short Market Value
=> $45,000 - $45,000 = 0℅
Margin = $22,500 = 50%
Therefore, Total Credits = $45,000 + $22,500 = $67,500
If the market value falls to $30,000, the account will show:
Credits - Short Market Value = Equity %
$67,500 - $30,000 = $37,500 = 125% of short market value
However, in order to support a $30,000 stock position at 50% margin,
We have $30,000 / 2= $15,000.
Hence, given that the account has $37,500 of equity, the excess is:
$37,500 - $15,000 = $22,500 which may be borrowed and is the SMA amount.
Therefore, with $22,500 of SMA, double of the amount may be purchased or sold short in other marginable securities.
$22,500 * 2= $45,000.
The final answer is $45,000
Hem and Nem are partners in a firm sharing profits in the ratio of 3:2. Their capitals were 80,000 and 60,000 respectively. They admitted Sam on Jan 1, 2019 as a new partner for 1/5th share in the future profits. Sam brought 60,000 as his capital.Calculate the value of goodwill of the firm and record necessary journal entries when Sam brings his share of goodwill in cash.
Answer:
Sam's capital account = $60,000 (for 1/5 of the firm)
the firm's total value = $60,000 x 5 = $300,000
goodwill = $300,000 - ($60,000 + $80,000 + $60,000) = $100,000
Hem's share of goodwill = ($80,000 / $140,000) x $100,000 = $57,143
Nem's share of goodwill = $100,000 - $57,143 = $42,857
the journal entry used to record goodwill:
Dr Goodwill 100,000
Cr Hem, capital, 57,143
Cr Nem, capital, 42,857

Salt reported net income of $200,000 for 20X2. Non-controlling interest share of consolidated net income that will appear in the income statement for 20X2 is:
Answer:
$33,600
Explanation:
Calculation for the Non-controlling interest share.
Using this formula
Non-controlling interest share=Net income-(Inventory ×One-third of Inventory)× Percentage of Subsidiary
Let plug in the formula
Non-controlling interest share=$200,000-($48,000×2/3)×(100%-80%)
Non-controlling interest share=$200,000-$32,000×20%
Non-controlling interest share=$168,000×20%
Non-controlling interest share=$33,600

In 2013, Jack and Shirley Wright moved from Riverside, in Southern California, up to Santa Clara, in Northern California, when Jack's company opened a new branch office there. They decided to rent for a while so they could get to know the area before buying a home. Three weeks ago, they finally found and put a contract on a lovely 3-bedroom ranch, and the sellers accepted the first offer. They took that as a good sign, but now it's only 5 days until the close of escrow and they still haven't signed the escrow papers yet. In fact, they aren't due to sign the escrow papers until the day before the actual close of escrow. The Wrights are under the impression that something is wrong, because when they sold their last home, the escrow instructions had to be signed by both parties to the transaction immediately after they all signed the purchase agreement--about 60 days ahead of the actual close of escrow date. Which of the following is true of this situation?
a. Their current agent has violated his fiduciary duties to them because he is mishandling their finances, and putting off handling the escrow until the last minute, thereby risking their new home and monies.
b. Their agent in Riverside was simply being cautious by handling the escrow so early in the game, because in California, escrow signing generally takes place in the last 2 weeks prior to the actual close of escrow.
c. The escrow practices in Southern California differ from those in Northern California. In Southern California, the escrow instructions are signed by the buyer and seller shortly after they’ve signed the purchase agreement, just after the start of escrow, which is about 60 days prior to the actual close of escrow. In Northern California, the escrow instructions are usually not signed until one or two days just before the close of escrow.
d. As of December 2014, the escrow practices have been changed from what they were in 2013 (when the Wrights sold their previous home), to stipulate that the escrow signing date and location are to be determined by both the buyer and the seller, as well as to the broker who is in charge of handling the escrow proceedings. Therefore, there is no specific regulation that sets forth the date or time for such proceedings. However, their agent was negligent in not explaining this to them, as well as not asking for their input into the signing date.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Escrow service is a form of risk mitigation medium in the course of a transaction , where a third party receives and disburses money for the main transacting parties as can be seen in the scenario given .
Nothing is really wrong in the transaction as suspected by the Wrights but a difference in the rules guiding escrow in North and South Carolina.
Escrow instruction are due for signing in South Carolina by both parties immediately after they have all signed the purchase agreement , about 60 days ahead of the actual close of the escrow date , while in North Carolina , escrow are not signed until the day before the actual close of escrow.
