Answer:

We give our friend 437.5 dollars

Explanation:

We have to discount from 500 dollar the interest over time, as the 500 is the value our friend will return in 4 weeks ( a month) not the amount received Hence:

nominal x discount rate x time = discount

being rate and time in the same metric

rate is annual so we express time in portion of a year

500 x -1.5 x 1/12 = -62,5‬

We have to discount 62.5 dollar from the nominal

nominal less discount = present value

500 - 62.5 = 437.5

sammy [17]

Answer:

Lester Company

The accumulated depreciation amounts for buildings $35,000 and for equipment $60,000 were obtained as the differences between the costs and the book values of the assets.  The cost of a long-term asset is usually reduced to its book value by the total amount in the accumulated depreciation account.  The accumulated depreciation account shows the progressive amounts set aside annually as a write-off of the asset, showing its use over the period in accordance with the accrual concept and matching principle.  The accrual concept and matching principle require cost to be matched to the revenue it helps to generate.

Explanation:

Transferred Assets:
