Joe is thinking about buying a very good lawn tractor to save the money that he now pays to a lawn service. It will cost $3,000

and Joe expects it to last 10 years, with an average depreciation cost of $300 per year. Joe's wife, who opposes this purchase, feels that Joe will get bored with his tractor in a year. Joe counters by telling her that if he does, he will be able to sell it for about $2,700, which is the purchase price minus first-year depreciation. What do you think about Joe's argument?

Answer:

Depreciation refers to the expense matching against revenue caused from such capital project. It does not mean that after deducting the depreciation for a year the asset has the same market value as of the carrying value.

Here, the cost of tractor being capital asset is $3,000

Depreciation is $300

Carrying book value = $2,700

Now, it does not reflect the market value. Therefore, Joe's argument that now he can sell the tractor at a price of $2,700 is not valid. As he might or might not be able to sell the tractor for same.

What statements best describe a store charge card?
Aloiza [94]

redit card
In general, a credit card lets you make purchases for which you are billed later. Most credit card accounts allow you to carry a balance from one billing cycle to the next. However, you will usually have to pay interest on that balance. You likely also have to pay at least a certain amount of your balance each time you receive a bill.

Charge card
A charge card is a specific kind of credit card. The balance on a charge card account is payable in full when the statement is received and cannot be rolled over from one billing cycle to the next. American Express and Diner's Club are two well-known organizations that offer charge cards.

So what does this mean for your FICO® score? There are many ways to build one's FICO score over time. Credit cards in general have a strong influence on the FICO score calculation. Charge cards can be just as effective as any other credit product in helping consumers establish a credit history.

Whether you have a credit card or a charge card, the most important factor in building or improving your FICO score is using credit responsibly. That means paying your bills on time and using your credit only when needed. If you can do those things consistently, you should be well on your way toward maintaining a good score.
