Answer:
Option C is correct
Explanation:
Using straight line depreciation method we can calculate the annual depreciation of the machinery, which can be calculated from the following formula:
Straight Line Depreciation = (Cost - Salvage Value) / Useful value
Straight Line Depreciation = ($95000 - $5000) / 5 years life = $18,000
The double entry would be:
Dr Depreciation Expense $18,000
Cr Accumulated Depreciation $18,000
Answer:
D. $525,000
Explanation:
budgeted production = 15,000 units/month
unit production time required = 30 minutes => 0.5 hours
direct labor rate = $70 per hour
Budgeted cost of direct labor for the month = 15,000 * 0.5 * 70
= $525,000
Answer:
Explanation:
one-year forward rate for year 2:
(1+4.75%)(1+f)=(1+4.95%)^2
(1+4.75%)(1+f)=1.10145025
(1+F)=1.10145025/1.0475
(1+f)=1.0515
f= 5.15%
one-year forward rate for year 3
:
(1+4.95%)^2 (1+f)=(1+5.25%)^3
(1+4.95%)^2 (1+f)=1.16591345312
(1+f)=1.16591345312
/1.10145025
(1+f)=1.0585
f=5.85%
one-year forward rate for year 4
:
(1+5.25%)^3 (1+f)=(1+5.65%)^4
(1+f)=1.0685
f= 6.85%
Answer:
C. Separating Management from Ownership
Explanation:
What is Agency
The agency refers to contractural, quasi-contractual and non-contractual fiduciary relationships which represents two to three parties. The first is a person called the agent, the second is the principal and the final is a third party. Agency authorizes an agent to act on behalf of the principal and create binding relatinships with a third party.
Agency Conflict
Agency conflict represents a conflict of interest which is unavoidable in an agency relationship where one party is to act in the best interest of the other party. Specifically, in the business or corporate settings, the agency conflict arises when there is a conflict of interest between an organisation's management and the owners of the organisation.
The challenge is that management who is the agent is expected at all times to make decisions that will constantly maximize the wealth of the owners and at times, these decisions would conflict with management's ability to maximize its own wealth
Therefore, once the management of an organisation is separated from ownership especially in a Management/ shareholders relationship, an agency conflict could arise.
