SashulF [63]

Answer:

c. $180 in 2019

Explanation:

The company uses the accrual method of accounting. Under the method, revenues are reported on the income statement when they are earned, regardless of when the money is actually received or paid.

On July 1, 2017, the company sold a one-year membership and a two-year membership. In 2017, The Maroon & Orange Gym, Inc. has provided service for 6 months of each contracts.

Gross income of one-year membership in 2017 = $40 x 6 = $240

Gross income of one-year membership in 2017 = $30 x 6 = $180

Total income = $240 + $180 = $420

In 2018, the company continued to provide service for 6 months remaining of one-year membership and 12 months remaining of two-year membership.

Gross income of one-year membership in 2018 = $40 x 6 = $240

Gross income of one-year membership in 2018 = $30 x 12= $360

Total income = $240 + $360 = $600

In 2019, the company completed providing service for 6 months remaining of two-year membership.

Gross income in 2019 = $30 x 6= $180

asambeis [7]

Answer:

1) none of the above  $3828.57 ( E )

2) $1143 ( c )

3)  $24571 ( A )

4)  $17142.86 ( E )

5) 12% ( B )

6) $410 ( B )

7) $2744.95 ( f )

8) $17,489 ( c )

9) $24282.36 ( F )

10) 867

Explanation:

1)  The annual after-tax net returns

net income = cash flow - depreciation

                 = $10500 - \frac{cost of equipment}{estimated life}  =   10500 - (40000/7) = $4785.71

calculate the annual net after tax returns = net income * (1 - Tax rate ) = 4785 * (0.80) = $3828.57

2) Tax savings from depreciation

Tax savings from depreciation = Depreciation amount * Tax rate

                                                   = (\frac{equipment cost}{estimated life} ) * Tax rate

                                                  = (40000/7) * 0.2 = $1142.86 ≈ $1143

3) After tax terminal value in three years

Sale value = $25000,

Book value = 40000 - ( 5714.29 * 3 ) = $22857.13

Gain on sale = sale value - book value = $2142.87

tax rate = gain on sale * tax rate = 2142.87 * 0.2 = $428.57

Terminal value = sales value - tax rate = 25000 - 428.57 ≈ $24571

4) Accumulated depreciation over the three years

= depreciation amount * 3 years

=5714.29 * 3 = $17142.86

5) After tax discount rate

= discount rate * (1 - tax rate )

= 15% * 0.80 = 12%

6) Present value of the after-tax net returns

SOLUTION attached below

7) Present value tax savings from depreciation

= Tax savings from depreciation / ( 1+r)^n  note ; n = 3

= $1142.86 / ( 1 + 0.12 )^3 = $2744.95

8) present value of the after-tax terminal value

Pv of terminal value = Terminal value / ( 1 + r ) ^n

                                = $24571.43 / ( 1 + 0.12 ) ^3 = $17,489

9) Net present value

= net cash flows / ( 1 + r ) ^n

= 34114.29 / ( 1 + 0.12) ^3

= $34114.29 /  1.4049 = $24282.36
