Answer:

B) 16.0%

Explanation:

The return on investment (ROI) measures the profits earned by an investor divided by the total amount invested.

cost of old trucks = $13,000 x 2 = $26,000

cost of new truck = $52,000 - $26,000 = $26,000

Cooper's controllable margin = $97,000

Assets = $580,000

assets after purchasing new truck = $580,000 + $26,000 = $606,000

ROI = $97,000 / $606,000 = 16%

nignag [31]

Answer:

$5,156

Explanation:

The computation of the uncollectible account expense is shown below:

But for this, first we have to compute the ending balance of allowance that is shown below

Current          $82,000 × 1%  = $820

0-30               $29,500  × 5%  = $1,475

31-60              $7,960 × 10%  = $796

61-90              $4,220  × 25%  = $1,055

Over 90          $3,900 × 50% = $1,950

Total                                            $6,096

Now the uncollectible account expense is

= $6,096 + $2,770 - $3,710

= $5,156          

This is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options

You are a COR and your contract for a critical barracks construction project is three weeks behind schedule. Two hundred soldier
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

The Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) should look for the contract terms that specify which party bears the costs associated with contract delivery delays.

In order to protect the government's best interest concerning the cost for the housing of the 200 soldiers for three weeks, the question to ask is if the contract provides that the contractor will bear the costs for housing the soldiers.  Who occasioned the delay?

Explanation:

There are usually some costs with construction contracts not meeting deadlines.  Some of them are that the asset may not be available at the required time for use, occasioning the need to incur some costs for alternatives.  How would the gap be filled?  Which party bears the costs of the delays?  Are there provisions in the contract specifying the party that assumes liability for some unforeseen delays?

A higher discount rate applied to a given flow of returns in the future (e.g., $5,000 at the end of 5 years, $10,000 at the end
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The correct option is B,decrease.

Explanation:

In calculating present value , the future value is divided by the discounting factor,hence, the higher the discounting rate, the higher the discounting factor.

Besides,since the relationship between future value and discounting factor is that of numerator-denominator relationship, it would be logical to say the higher the discounting factor , the lower the output of the mathematical operation,present value and vice versa.

From the foregoing, it is very clear a higher discount rate triggers a lower present value and vice versa

On July 1, Year 1, Yellow Rose Corp. paid $25,000 cash for a machine and paid an additional 8% sales tax. On the same date, an e
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Journal entries are given below

Explanation:

July 1, Year 1 (Yellow Rose Corp. purchased a machine)

                                            DEBIT      CREDIT

Machine                            $28,000  

Cash                                                     $28,000

Working

Cost of machine = Purchase price + Sales tax + Installation

Cost of machine =  $25,000 + $2,000 + $1,000

Cost of machine =   $28,000

Depreciation for year 1 (October to December)

                                                       DEBIT      CREDIT

Depreciation Expenses                $1,300  

Accumulated Depreciation                             $1,300

Working

Annual Depreciation expense = (Cost - salvage value) / useful life

Annual Depreciation expense = (28000 - 2000) / 5 = $5,200

Depreciation for 3 months

Depreciation = $5,200 x 3/12

Depreciation = $1300

Sale of the machine

                                                       DEBIT      CREDIT

Cash                                        $14,000  

Loss on Sale                                 $7,500  

Accumulated Depreciation         $6,500  

Machinery                                                       $28,000

Workng

Gain/Loss on sale = Sale proceed - carrying value

Gain/Loss on sale = 14,000 - 21,500

Loss on sale = $7,500

Carrying value = Cost - Accumulated depreciation

Carrying value = 28,000 - 6500 = 21500

Accumulated depreciation = $1,300 + $5,200 = $6,500
