Answer:
Option c is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The depletion expense or charge for the period can be calculated using the following formula,
Depletion expense = [(Cost - Salvage Value) / Total units expected to be mined] * Units mined during the period
Depletion expense = [(1500000 - 250000) / 2000000] * 150000
Depletion expense = $93750
The entry to record the expense is,
Depletion expense 93750 Dr
Accumulated depletion 93750 Cr
So, option c is the correct answer.
Answer:
More than $1500 price per car per month has to be dropped.
Explanation:
Given:
price per car = $20,000
car sale per month = 40
rate of increase in demand = 3
Solution:
Revenue R = Price × Quantity = P * Q
From the above given data
P = 20,000
Q = 40
R = P*Q
dQ/dt = 3
We have to find the rate at which the price is to be dropped before monthly revenue starts to drop.
R = P*Q
dR/dt = (dP/dt)Q + P(dQ/dt)
= (dP/dt) 40 + 20,000*3 < 0
= (dP/dt) 40 < 60,000
= dP/dt < 60000/40
= dP/dt < 1,500
Hence the price has to be dropped more than $1,500 before monthly revenue starts to drop.
