Explanation:
The Short Run Phillips Curve holds that in the short run, there is an inverse relationship between Unemployment and inflation because there is a trade-off between the two. As one rises, the other falls.
The sequence of events is,
At first, the Economy is in Equilibrium at u=u*.
The Central Bank then embarks on Expansionary Monetary policy and injects money into the economy. This will have the effect of putting more money into people's pockets.
As this happens, people will then have more money to buy more goods and services which they will. This is a rise in Aggregate Demand in the economy.
As Aggregate Demand rises, the Economic equation kicks in which is that the higher the demand, the higher the price. This increase will therefore lead to an increase in price levels which is inflation. The Unemployment rate will then fall because as the Phillips Curve shows, Unemployment falls as inflation rises.
Joe has just moved to a small town with only one golf course, the Northlands Golf Club. His inverse demand function is pequals 160minus2 q, where q is the number of rounds of golf that he plays per year. The manager of the Northlands Club negotiates separately with each person who joins the club and can therefore charge individual prices. This manager has a good idea of what Joe's demand curve is and offers Joe a special deal, where Joe pays an annual membership fee and can play as many rounds as he wants at $20 , which is the marginal cost his round imposes on the Club. What membership fee would maximize profit for the Club? The manager could have charged Joe a single price per round. How much extra profit does the Club earn by using two-part pricing? The profit-maximizing membership fee (F) is $nothing . (Enter your response as a whole number.)
Answer:
Club membership fee of $60 would maximize profit.
If the club charges tow part pricing the maximum revenue can be $3500.
Explanation:
Joe has entered into a monopoly because he is owner of single golf course in the Northlands.
Demand function for Joe's golf course is:
P = 160 - 2q
P = $20 , q = 50
160 - 2 (50) = 60
Consumer surplus = 0.5 * equilibrium quantity
Consumer Surplus for Joe is ; 0.5 * 50 (160 - 20) = $3500
If MR = MC then demand function will become :
160 - 4q
If q = 25 then
160 - 4 * 25 = 60
McGovern Enterprises is interested in issuing bonds with warrants attached. The bonds will have a 30-year maturity and annual interest payments. Each bond will come with 20 warrants that give the holder the right to purchase one share of stock per warrant. The investment bankers estimate that each warrant will have a value of $10.00. A similar straight-debt issue would require a 10% coupon. What coupon rate should be set on the bonds-with-warrants so that the package would sell for $1,000?
Answer:
The multiple choices are:
6.64%
7.11%
7.48%
7.88%
8.27%
coupon rate is 7.88%
Explanation:
In determining the coupon rate to set on the bond,we need to calculate the annual coupon of the debt using the pmt formula in excel
=pmt(rate,nper,-pv,fv)
rate is the coupon on similar straight debt issue
nper is number of coupons the bond would pay which is 30
pv =$1000-(value of 20 warrants)
pv=$1000-(20*$10)
pv=$800
fv id the face value of $1000
=pmt(10%,30,-800,1000)= 78.78
coupon rate=coupon amount/face value=$78.78/$1000=7.88%
Current and Quick Ratios The Nelson Company has $1,250,000 in current assets and $500,000 in current liabilities. Its initial inventory level is $400,000, and it will raise funds as additional notes payable and use them to increase inventory. How much can Nelson's short-term debt (notes payable) increase without pushing its current ratio below 1.2
Answer:
Nelson's short-term debt (notes payable) can increase by $541,667 without pushing its current ratio below 1.2.
Explanation:
We know that the formula for calculating the current ratio is as follows:
Current ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities .................... (1)
Where;
Existing Current assets = $1,250,000
Existing current liabilities = $500,000
Existing Current ratio = $1,250,000 / $500,000 = 2.50
Since we want to keep the current assets at $1,250,000, and targeted current ratio is 1.2; we want to determine the following:
Targeted current liabilities = ?
We therefore also use and substitute into equation (1) as follows:
Targeted current ratio = Existing Current assets / Targeted current liabilities
Therefore, we have:
1.2 = $1,250,000 / Targeted current liabilities
Solving for Targeted current liabilities, we have:
Targeted current liabilities = $1,250,000 / 1.2 = $1,041,667
Therefore, we have:
Targeted increase in short-term debt = Targeted current liabilities - Existing current liabilities = $1,041,667 - $500,000 = $541,667
Therefore, Nelson's short-term debt (notes payable) can increase by $541,667 without pushing its current ratio below 1.2.

Adulit customers also can purchase a season pass that entitles the pass holder to ski any day during the season, which typically runs from December 1 through April 30. Ski West expects its season pass holders to use their passes equally throughout the season. The company's fiscal year ends on December 31. On November 6, 2018, Jake Lawson purchased a season pass for $450.1. What will be included in the Ski West 2018 Income statement and balance sheet related to the sale of the season pass to Jake Lawson? Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs below. 2. When should Ski West recognize revenue from the sale of its season passes?3. Prepare the appropriate ournal enteries that Sky West would record on November 6 and December 31.
Answer:
Ski West, Inc.
1. What Ski West 2018 should include in its Income statement and balance sheet related to the sale of the season pass to Jake Lawson?
a) Income Statement:
Season Passes Revenue = $90 ($450/5). This represents December season pass by Jake Lawson.
b) Balance Sheet:
Unearned Season Passes Revenue $360 as a current liability.
2. When Ski West should recognize revenue from the sale of its season passes:
Revenue should be recognized on December 31.
3. Journal Entries on November 6 and December 31:
November 6:
Debit Cash Account $450
Credit Unearned Season Passes Revenue $450
To record the receipt from Jake Lawson.
If this sale was on account, then the Accounts Receivable is debited instead.
December 31:
Debit Unearned Season Passes Revenue $90
Credit Season Passes Revenue $90
To record the earned revenue from Jake Lawson's.

Unearned revenue is not recognized in the income statement. It is taken to the Balance Sheet as a current liability. It is not recognized because it does not belong to the current period, as specified by the accrual concept and matching principle.
A delivery company is considering adding another vehicle to its delivery fleet; each vehicle is rented for $100 per day. Assume that the additional vehicle would be capable of delivering 1,500 packages per day and that each package that is delivered brings in ten cents in revenue. Also assume that adding the delivery vehicle would not affect any other costs.
Required:
a. What is the MRP? What is the MRC? Should the firm add this delivery vehicle?
b. Now suppose that the cost of renting a vehicle doubles to S200 per day. What are the MRP and MRC? Should the firm add a delivery vehicle under these circumstances?
c. Next suppose that the cost of renting a vehicle falls back down to SIOO per day but, due to extremely congested freeways, an additional vehicle would only be able to deliver 750 packages per day. What are the MRP and MRC in this situation? Would adding a vehicle under these circumstances increase the firm's profits?
Answer:
a. What is the MRP? What is the MRC? Should the firm add this delivery vehicle?
marginal revenue product = marginal product of labor x marginal revenue per output unit
MRP = 1,500 packages x $0.10 per package = $150
marginal resource cost (MRC) = $100 (the cost of renting the delivery truck)
The company should add the delivery truck because MRP is higher than MRC.
b. Now suppose that the cost of renting a vehicle doubles to $200 per day. What are the MRP and MRC in this situation?
MRP = $150 (doesn't change from question a)
MRC = $200 (the cost of renting the delivery truck)
The company should not add the delivery truck because MRP is less than MRC.
c. Next suppose that the cost of renting a vehicle falls back down to $100 per day, but, due to extremely congested freeways, an additional vehicle would only be able to deliver 750 packages per day. What are the MRP and MRC in this situation? Would adding a vehicle under these circumstances increase the firm's profits?
MRP = 750 packages x $0.10 per package = $75
MRC = $100
The company should not add the delivery truck because MRP is less than MRC.

Internal Rate of Return (IRR)
Simple Rate of Return
Net Present Value
Answer:
NPV 4,648
Payback period 2.88
IRR 22.69%
Simple rate of return 31.33%
Explanation:
Payback period = 2 year + (10,000 – cash in year 1 – cash in year 2)/ cash in year 3 = 2.88 years
Net Present Value = -10000 + 2400/(1+8%) + 4800/(1+8%)^2+ 3,200/(1+8%)^3 + 3,200/(1+8%)^4 + 2,800/(1+8%)^5 + 2,400/(1+8%)^6 = 4,648
Simple Rate of Return = average cash inflow/ investment = ((2,400+4,800+3,200+3,200+2,800+2,400)/6)/10,000 = 31.33%

Grand Canal Incorporated issued 10-year bonds six years ago with an annual coupon rate of 9.625% APR. The bonds have a face value of $1,000.00 each and were issued at par value. Today, investors want a 5.99% return for bonds of similar risk and maturity. What is the current market price of Grand Canal bonds
Answer:
$1,125.98
Explanation:
market price of the bonds = present value of face value + present value of coupons
PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 0.0599)⁴ = $792.39
PV of coupons = coupon x {1 - [1/(1 + r)ⁿ]} / r = 96.25 x {1 - [1/(1 + 0.0599)⁴]} / 0.0599 = 96.25 x 3.34659 = $333.59
market value = $792.39 + $333.59 = $1,125.98
Which of these employees is facing an ethical dilemma?
A. The manager at Almas Inc. has to make a vendor choice between his underqualified cousin and a highly-experienced, trusted supplier.
B. Lars has to decide whether the annual profits of the company should be distributed to the employees as a salary hike or in the form of non-monetary benefits.
C. Javier has felt unsure about a car he purchased and has been reading only good reviews about the car to console himself.
D. After seeing a whole new collection of phones at a store, Max is regretting the purchase of an outdated phone he made last month.
E. Salena is responsible for deciding whether she should upgrade the manufacturing unit with new machines and reduce costs or retain the impoverished manual labor force.
Answer:
The employee facing ethical dilemmas is SELENA because Salena is responsible for deciding whether she should upgrade the manufacturing unit with new machines and reduce costs or retain the impoverished manual labor force
Explanation:
Ethical dilemma can be seen as the way in which a person or an individual is finding it hard to make a decision between two alternatives due to the difficulty in deciding on the one to accept or reject ,Which is why ETHICAL DILEMMAS may lead to arising of complexity out of the situational conflict in which choosing one alternative may result in transgressing another.
Although no matter the difficulty on deciding on which one to go for a choice has to be made between the two equally undesirable alternatives.
Therefore a person or an individual often faces ethical dilemmas on their day to day activities , because knowing how to do the right thing as well as knowing the difference between the one that is right and wrong can be difficult and often times subjective which is what Salena was facing by finding it hard to decide on the two alternatives which is either she should upgrade the manufacturing unit with new machines and reduce costs or retain the impoverished manual labor force.
Summit Systems has an equity cost of capital of 11.0 %, will pay a dividend of $1.50 in one year, and its dividends had been expected to grow by 6.0 % per year. You read in the paper that Summit Systems has revised its growth prospects and now expects its dividends to grow at a rate of 3.0 % per year forever.
A. What is the new value of a share of Summit Systems stock based on this information?
B. If you tried to sell your Summit Systems stock after reading this news, what price would you be likely to get? Why?
Answer:
A) The new value of a share of Summit Systems stock based on this information is $17.65
B) $17.65. This is due to the fact that If the information about Summit Systems has reached the capital market, the revised growth rate has already been applied.
Explanation:
Given:
Equity cost of capital = 11.0 %
Dividend in one year = $1.50
Dividends growth per year = 6.0 %
A) If expected growth rate is 6.0%:
Value of share = Expected dividend ÷ (Cost of capital - Growth rate)
Value of share = $1.50 ÷ (0.1150 - 0.060)
Value of share = $27.27
If expected growth rate is 3.0%:
New_Value of share = Expected dividend ÷ (Cost of capital - Growth rate)
New_Value of share = $1.50 ÷ (0.1150 - 0.030)
New_Value of share = $17.65
Consider the three theories of the upward slope of the short-run aggregate-supply curve. According to the sticky-wage theory, the economy recovers from a recession as nominal wages are adjusted so that real wages . True or False: According to the sticky-price theory, the economy is in a recession because not all prices adjust quickly. True False True or False: According to the misperceptions theory, the economy is in a recession when the price level is above what was expected. True False
Answer:
The three theories are all True.
Explanation:
Solution
(1) True
The sticky wage theory: As stated by the sticky wage theory the reimburse of employees tends to have a steady response to the changes in the performance of the economy or the organization.
Precisely wages are frequently said to be sticky- down, this means that they can go up easily but come down only with difficulty.
Without stickiness, wages would always adjust in more or less real-time with the market and bring about constant economic equilibrium.
(2) True
Sticky price theory: The logic behind sticky price theory is the same as sticky wage theory but with in terms to the price of goods.
Menu costs produce stickiness in prices because of the cost and time considered to change the price, such as costs of printing new sales materials and distributing catalogs and the time needed for a retailer to change price tags.
Businesses will at the time being minimize the quantity supplied until they can get prices unstuck.
(3) True
Misperception theory : This theory presents changes in the total price level at the moment mislead the suppliers about what is happening in the markets in which they sell their goods. they make an inaccurate assumption that their relative prices have also declined.
.
According to the sticky-wage theory, the economy recovers from a recession as nominal wages are adjusted so that real wages is a true theory. According to the sticky-price theory, the economy is in a recession because not all prices adjust quickly wages is a true theory. And, According to the misperceptions theory, the economy is in a recession when the price level is above what was expected is also a true theory. This can be further explained as follows:
1. According to the sticky wage theory, employee compensation tends to be stable in response to changes in the economy or the organization's performance. Wages are commonly described as sticky-down, which suggests that they can easily rise but only fall with difficulty. Lacking stickiness, salaries always would adapt in real time with the marketplace, bringing economic equilibrium to a halt.
2. Sticky price theory: Sticky price theory is based on the same logic as sticky wage theory, but it applies to the price of things. Due to the obvious time and cost required to change the price, like the costs of printing new sales material and circulating catalogues, as well as the time required for a merchant to adjust price stickers, menu costs induce stickiness in prices. Companies will decrease the amounts supplied for the term being till they can get their prices unstuck.
3. Variations in the overall level of prices at the time confuse vendors of what is occurring in the marketplaces where they sell their products, according to the misperception theory. People make the mistake of assuming that their comparable prices have decreased as well.
Therefore, it can be concluded that all of the given theories are correct in the economic situations.

A firm in a purely competitive industry has a typical cost structure. The normal rate of profit in the economy is 5 percent. This firm is earning $5.50 on every $50 invested by its founders.
a. What is its percentage rate of return? 11 percent.
b. Is the firm earning an economic profit? Yes If so, how large? 6 percent.
c. Will this industry see entry or exit? Entry
d. What will be the rate of return earned by firms in this industry once the industry reaches long-run equilibrium?
Answer: The answers are given below
Explanation:
a. What is its percentage rate of return?
From the question, we are told that the firm is earning $5.50 on every $50 invested by its founders. The percentage of return will now be:
= $5.50/$50 × 100%
= 0.11 × 100%
= 11%
b. Is the firm earning an economic profit? If so, how large?
The economic profit will be the difference that exists between the percentage of return which is 11% and the normal rate of profit which is 5%. This will be:
= 11% - 5%
= 6%
The firm is earning economic profit of 6%.
c. Will this industry see entry or exit?
There will be entry into the industry. This is because the percentage of return which is 11% is greater than the normal rate of profit which is 5%.
d. What will be the rate of return earned by firms in this industry once the industry reaches long-run equilibrium?
The rate of return earned by firms in this industry once the industry reaches long-run equilibrium will be 5% which is the normal rate of profit in the economy.
Arnell Industries has $35 million in permanent debt outstanding. The firm will pay interest only on this debt. Arnell’s marginal tax rate is expected to be 21% for the foreseeable future. a) Suppose Arnell pays interest of 7% per year on its debt. What is its annual interest tax shield? b) What is the present value of the interest tax shield, assuming its risk is the same as the loan?
Answer:
a) $0.5145 million
b) $7.35 million
Explanation:
Given:
Permanent debt outstanding = $35,000,000
Expected marginal tax rate = 21%
a) Suppose they pay an interest of 7% per year on debt. Find the annual interest tax shield.
To find annual interes tax shield use the formula below:
Annual interest tax shield =Total par value of Debt × interest rate × tax rate
= $35,000,000 × 7% × 21%
= $35,000,000 × 0.07 × 0.21
= $514,500
Annual interest tax shield = $0.5145 million
b) What is the present value of the interest tax shield, assuming its risk is the same as the loan?
Use the formula:
Present value of the interest tax shield = Annual interest tax shield /loan interest rate
= $514,500 / 7%
= $7,350,000
present value of the interest tax shield = $7.35 million
Chester Company plans to introduce a new product. A market research specialist claims that 20,000 units can be sold at a $100 selling price. Assuming the company desires a profit margin of 22% of sales, what is the target cost per unit
Answer:
$78
Explanation:
Profit margin is the ratio of profit to sales while the profit is the difference between the sales and the cost.
As such, profit margin is the ratio of the difference between the sales and the cost to the sales.
Given that margin is 22%, it means that
22% = profit/(20,000 * $100)
Profit = $440,000
Total cost = $2,000,000 - $440,000
= $1,560,000
Target cost per unit = $1,560,000/20,000
= $78

When your father was born 46 years ago, his grandparents deposited $450 in an account for him. Today, that account is worth $25,000. What was the annual rate of return on this account
Answer:
9.1%
Explanation:
To calculate the annual rate of return on this account you can use the following formula:
r = ( FV / PV )^1/n - 1, where
r= rate of return
FV= future value= 25,000
PV= present value= 450
n= number of periods of time= 46
r=(25,000/450)^(1/46)-1
r=55.56^0.0217-1
r=1.091-1
r=0.091 → 9.1%
According to this, the annual rate of return on this account was 9.1%.
Kruger Designs hired a consulting firm 3 months ago to redesign the information system that the architects use. The architects will be able to use state of the art computer- aided design (CAD) programs to help in designing the products. Further, they will be able to store these designs on a network server where they and other architects may be able to call them back up for future designs with similar components. The consulting firm has been instructed to develop the system without disrupting the architects. In fact, top management believes that the best route is to develop the system and then to introduce it to the architects during a training session. Management does not want the architects to spend precious billable hours guessing about the new system or putting work off until the new system is working. Thus, the consultants are operating in a back room under a shroud of secrecy.
Required:
a. Do you think that management is taking the best course of action for the announcement of the new system?Why?
b. Do you approve of the development process? Why?
Explanation:
a) Yes, because management is acting in such a way that the development of the new system implemented does not cause problems or disturbances to the work of architects. Management's goal is to present architects with the new system already developed by consultants and more efficient, which can also help in resisting changes that architects could face, so management is taking the best course of action for the announcement of the new system.
b) No. Because in my opinion, for management to take the best course of action for the process of developing the new system, first the main users of the system should be advised about changes that could occur in the system due to the operation of the consultants, because the work of architects could be harmed in any way, so business decisions must be clearly communicated when it involves the progress of third party activities.
Moss Co. issued $780,000 of five-year, 11% bonds, with interest payable semiannually, at a market (effective) interest rate of 10%. Determine the present value of the bonds payable, using the present value tables in Exhibit 5 and Exhibit 7. Round to the nearest dollar.
Answer:
$810,113.2678
Explanation:
The computation of the present value of the bond payable is shown below:
= Issued amount × discount factor of 5% at 10 years + Issued amount × half of the bond interest × PVIFA factor of 5% at 10 years
= $780,000 × 0.613913254 + $780,000 × 5.5% × 7.7217
= $478,852.3378 + $331,260.93
= $810,113.2678
Refer to the discount factor table and PVIFA factor table
Ship Co. produces storage crates that require 34.0 meters of material at $0.20 per meter and 0.30 direct labor hours at $19.00 per hour. Overhead is applied at the rate of $16 per direct labor hour. What is the total standard cost for one unit of product that would appear on a standard cost card?
Answer:
Total standard cost = $103.7
Explanation:
Standard cost is the sum of the standard material cost , standard labour cost and standard overhead
Overhead = OAR × direct labour hour
= $16 × (0.30×$19.00)= 91.2
Standard cost = (34.0×$0.20) + (0.30×$19.00) + 91.2 = $103.7
Standard cost = $103.7

Which of the following statements is most correct? Many large firms operate different divisions in different industries, and this makes it hard to develop a meaningful set of industry benchmarks for these types of firms. Financial ratios should be interpreted with caution because there exist seasonal and accounting differences that can reduce their comparability. Financial ratios should be interpreted with caution because it may be difficult to say with certainty what is a "good" value is neither high nor low. Ratio analysis facilitates comparisons by standardizing numbers. All of the statements above are correct.
Answer:
All of the statements above are correct.
Explanation:
All of the following statements listed below are correct and true about business management;
1. Many large firms operate different divisions in different industries, and this makes it hard to develop a meaningful set of industry benchmarks for these types of firms.
Hence, industry average or benchmarks are more applicable to a small and medium enterprise than it's to large enterprises. The industry benchmark is a process that is focused on comparing an industry with other successful industries.
2. Financial ratios should be interpreted with caution because there exist seasonal and accounting differences that can reduce their comparability.
Hence, it is important to interpret financial ratios with care and reasonable logic as factors such as inflation and depreciation.
3. Financial ratios should be interpreted with caution because it may be difficult to say with certainty what is a "good" value is neither high nor low.
4. Ratio analysis facilitates comparisons by standardizing numbers.
Ratio analysis can be defined as the analysis and comparison of various line items in the financial statements of a business such as the income statement or balance sheet, in order to gain insight into its operational efficiency, profitability and liquidity. Types of ratio analysis are liquidity, efficiency, solvency, market value, and profitability ratio.
ix months ago, you purchased 2,900 shares of ABC stock for $32.58 a share. You have received dividend payments equal to $.70 a share. Today, you sold all of your shares for $35.26 a share. What is your total dollar return on this i
Answer:
$9802
Explanation:
The total return is the sum of the dividend value and the increase in share value:
return per share = $0.70 +($35.26 -32.58) = $3.38
Then the return on 2900 shares is . . .
2900 × $3.38 = $9802
Assume that you are an intern with the Brayton Company, and you have collected the following data: The yield on the company's outstanding bonds is 7.75%; its tax rate is 25%; the next expected dividend is $0.65 a share; the dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 6.00% a year; the price of the stock is $15.00 per share; the flotation cost for selling new shares is F= 5%; and the target capital structure is 25% debt and 75% common equity. What is the firm's WACC, assuming it must issue new stock to finance its capital budget?
a. 6.89%
b. 7.24%
c. 7.64%
d. 8.55%
e. 8.44%
Answer:
WACC is 9.37%
Explanation:
After tax cost of debt=yield to maturity*(1-t)
where t is the tax rate of 25% or 0.25
after tax cost of debt=7.75%*(1-0.25)=5.81%
Using stock price formula,the cost of equity can be determined as below:
stock price=Di/k-g
Di is the next dividend of $0.65
k is the cost of equity which is unknown
g is the constant growth rate of 6.00%
stock price=$15*(1-f)
f is the flotation cost percentage
stock price=$15*(1-5%)=$14.25
14.25=0.65/k-6%
14.25(k-6%)=0.65
k-6%=0.65/14.25
k=(0.65/14.25)+6%=10.56%
WACC=Ke*We+Kd*Wd
ke is 10.56%
We is the weight of equity which is 75%
Kd is 5.81%
We is the weight of debt which is 25%
WACC==(10.56%*75%)+(5.81%*25%)=9.37%
Given that annual deposit rates for Dollars and Euros are 6% and 4% respectively for the next 5 years. If the current spot rate of the Euro is $1.4015, obtain the implied rate for the Euro five years from now if International Fisher Equation holds exactly.
a. $1.5415
b. $1.2742
c. $1.4284
d. $1.3750
e. None of the above.
Answer:
The correct answer is (a) $1.5415
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
Annual deposit rate for dollar =6%
Annual deposit rate for Euro = 4%
n = 5 years
The present spot rate of Euro =$1,4015
The next step is to obtain the implied rate for the Euro.
Thus
Implied rate = $1,4015[(1.06)/(1.04)]^5
= $1,4015 * 1.019230769^5
=$1,4015* 1.099923877
=$1.5415
Hence the implied rate for Euro 5 years from now is $1.5415

(Appendix 11.1) Depreciation for Financial Statements and Income Tax Purposes Dinkle Company purchased equipment for $50,000. The equipment has an estimated residual value of $5,000 and an expected useful life of 10 years. Dinkle uses straight-line depreciation for its financial statements. Required: What is the difference between the company's income before taxes reported on its financial statements and the taxable income reported on its tax return in each of the first 2 years of the asset's life if the asset was purchased on January 2, 2016, and its MACRS life is 5 years?
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
For year 1
According to the Company's Books Depreciation
= (Orginal Cost - Salvage value) ÷ useful Life
= ($50,000 - $5,000) ÷ 10 years
= $4,500
According to the Income Tax Depreciation
= Cost × MACRS Rate for Year 1
= $50,000 × 20%
= $10,000
So, the difference in year 1 is
= $10,000 - $4,500
= $5,500
For year 2
According to the Company's Books Depreciation
= (Orginal Cost - Salvage value) ÷ useful Life
= ($50,000 - $5,000) ÷ 10 years
= $4,500
According to the Income Tax Depreciation
= Cost × MACRS Rate for Year 2
= $50,000 × 32%
= $16,000
So, the difference in year 1 is
= $16,000 - $4,500
= $11,500
