Explanation:

Data mining is a technique in data analysis that allows users determine faster and one of the strategic business intelligence techniques. Data mining enables users to analyze large amounts of data and to identify hidden links within data not known otherwise.  

For example, data mining might reveal that a consumer buying product X is ten times as likely to buy the product

Data mining finds information such as:

  • Relationships, or events related to a single event.
  • Events or patterns linked over time.
  • Category or patterns that define the category to which an article refers, discovered through an analysis of current classified objects and the application of a set of rules.
  • Unclassified or connected clusters;
  • Clusters, or unclassified but related groups

Whether hunting at new products and services or seeking new marketing strategies or new markets, I would suggest to a company that uses data mining. Data mining can be useful if unforeseen business issues whose sources are hard to identify are being studied.

Computing Depreciation and Accounting for a Change of Estimate Lambert Company acquired machinery costing $110,000 on January 2,
lesya692 [45]

Answer: please see answers in explanation column

Explanation:

a) Under straight-line method,

 Depreciation expense =(Cost - residual value) ÷ No of years =

= ($110,000 - $15,000) ÷ 6 years = $15,833  which refers to the yearly depreciation expense.

Therefore,  the yearly depreciation expense of $15,833 will be applied to the Years 2019, 2020 and 2021.

Total depreciation for all the three years equals  

 $15,833 x  3 years = $47,499.

(b) The double-declining method

which is  2 x  Straight - Line Depreciation Percentage x Book value

 Straight - Line Depreciation Percentage

100% ÷ 6 years = 16.67%,

 Therefore, Year 2019= 2 x  16.67% x  $110,000 = $36,663

Year 2020=2 x  16.67% x  $73,337 ($110,000 - $36,663) = $24,443

Year 2021=2 x  16.67% x $48,894 ($73,337 - $24,443) = $16,296

The total of the three years ie 2019 to 2021  =$77,402

(c) Given that in 2021 which is  after 2 years, the revised estimated useful life becomes 7 years and the residual value is $10,000

Depreciation Using  the straight-line method becomes  

Depreciation expense =(Cost - residual value) ÷ No of years

But Net Book Value, which is the cost  at the end of 2019  

$110,000 - $15,833  x  2 years = $78,334

Therefore, Depreciation expense= ($78,334 - $10,000) ÷ 7 years = $9,762  

Also,

Using double-declining method,

Straight - Line Depreciation Percentage = 100% ÷ 7 years = 14.29%,

Year 2021,

2 x 14.29% x $48,894 ($73,337 - $24,443) = $13,969

A manufacturing company has the following budgeted overhead costs: Indirect materials: $0.50 per unit; Utilities: $0.25 per unit
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Total overhead                       $

Indirect material ($0.5 x 200,000 units) = 100,000

Utilities ($0.25 x 200,000 units)             = 50,000

Supervisory salaries                                 = 60,000

Building rent                                              = 80,000

Total overhead                                             290,000

Overhead rate                = <u>Budgeted overhead</u>

                                           Budgeted direct labour hours

                                         = <u>$290,000</u>

                                              100,000 hours

                                         = $2.90 per direct labour hour

Explanation:

In this case, we need to obtain the total overhead, which is the total of indirect material, utilities, supervisory salaries and building rent.

Then, we will divide the total overhead by direct labour hours so as to determine the overhead rate.

Polk Products is considering an investment project with the following cash flows:
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

b. 1.86 years

Explanation:

The computation of the project's discounted payback is shown below:-

Year   Cash Flows      Discounted CFs (at 10%)        Cumulative

 

                                                                                Discounted CFs

0        -$100,000           -$100,000                          -$100,000

1          $40,000              $36,363.64                       -$63,636.36

2          $90,000              $74,380.17                        $10,743.80

3          $30,000               $22,539.44                      $33,283.25

4          $60,000               $40,980.81                      $74,264.05

Discounted Payback Period = Years before full recovery +

(Uncovered Cost at start of the year ÷ Cash Flow during the year)

Now we will put the values into the formula

= 1 + ($63,636.36 ÷ $74,380.17)

= 1 + 0.86

= 1.86 years
