Answer:

The right solution is "600000".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Cost of office furniture,

= $100,000

Cost of the computer system,

= $500,000

  • The changed MACRS enables a company to reduce the mortgage balance of such deteriorating properties over time.
  • Throughout the very first years, MACRS permits quicker depreciation although subsequently slows down depriving. This seems to be fantastic for corporations from a tax point of view.

Now,

The cost recovery deduction will be:

=  Office \ furniture+Computer \ system

On substituting the values, we get

=  100000+500000

=  600000

Bess [88]

Answer:

Synergy

Explanation:

Synergy is the concept that the combined performance of two entities will be better than each of them acting individually.

In this instance when the two teams that each produce 100 containers per day became integrated as one, they now produce 300 containers a day. This is as a result of their increased division of labor, combined efficiencies and expertise of team members.

If the distribution of water is a natural monopoly, then (i) multiple firms would likely each have to pay large fixed costs to d
Afina-wow [57]

Answer: the correct answer is B. (i) and (iii) only

Explanation:

A natural monopoly is a monopoly in an industry in which huge infrastructural costs and other fences to entry relative to the size of the market give the largest supplier in an industry, often the first supplier in a market, an overwhelming advantage over potential competitors.  

(i) multiple firms would likely each have to pay large fixed costs to develop their own network of pipes. This is true but often times it is just one big company the one that serves the whole market or a partnership of two or (rarely) three companies that works as a big company.

(iii) a single firm can serve the market at the lowest possible average total cost.  This is true because a natural monopoly has scale economies that's why it can offer the lowest possible average total costs.

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

The answer to this question is C. analyze findings, draw conclusions, and make recommendations intended to solve a problem.

Explanation:

A proposal is a plan or suggestion, especially a formal or written one, put forward for consideration by others. It is a write up that shows the intention of a writer and one seeks approval from others.

An effective proposal must showcase the writer's expertise and build credibility, get the reader's attention. analyze findings,  emphasize how the writer's methods and products will benefit the reader.

However a proposal is not a research work, therefore it should not include analysis of findings, drawing of conclusions and making recommendations intended to solve a problem.

Hence the right answer is C. analyze findings, draw conclusions, and make recommendations intended to solve a problem
