he plant asset and accumulated depreciation accounts of Pell Corporation had the following balances at December 31, 2020:

Plant Asset Accumulated
Depreciation
Land $ 355,000 $ 0
Land improvements 181,500 46,000
Building 1,510,000 355,000
Equipment 1,168,000 410,000
Automobiles 151,000 112,500


Transactions during 2021 were as follows:

  1. On January 2, 2021, equipment were purchased at a total invoice cost of $265,000, which included a $5,600 charge for freight. Installation costs of $28,000 were incurred.
  2. On March 31, 2021, a small storage building was donated to the company. The person donating the building originally purchased it three years ago for $26,000. The fair value of the building on the day of the donation was $17,400.
  3. On May 1, 2021, expenditures of $51,000 were made to repave parking lots at Pell's plant location. The work was necessitated by damage caused by severe winter weather. The repair doesn't provide future benefits beyond those originally anticipated.
  4. On November 1, 2021, Pell acquired a tract of land with an existing building in exchange for 10,000 shares of Pell’s common stock that had a market price of $39 per share. Pell paid legal fees and title insurance totaling $23,500. Shortly after acquisition, the building was razed at a cost of $36,000 in anticipation of new building construction in 2022.
  5. On December 31, 2021, Pell purchased a small storage building by giving $15,500 cash and an old automobile purchased for $18,500 in 2014. Depreciation on the old automobile recorded through December 31, 2021, totaled $13,875. The fair value of the old automobile was $3,800.


Required:

For each asset classification, prepare a schedule showing depreciation for the year ended December 31, 2021, using the following depreciation methods and useful lives:

Land improvements—Straight line; 15 years.
Building—150% declining balance; 20 years.
Equipment—Straight line; 10 years.
Automobiles—Units-of-production; $0.50 per mile

Depreciation is computed to the nearest month and no residual values are used. Automobiles were driven 38,500 miles in 2021. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answers to 2 decimal places.)

identify the primary justifications underlying shareholder theory and stakeholder theory. Thereafter, discuss and analyze the strengths and weaknesses of these competing theories. Additionally, you may, but are not required to render a reasoned opinion as to whether you deem the shareholder theory of stakeholder theory as best addressing how the corporation can pursue an ethical course of business. Alternatively, you may reject both theories as to the best course of action and propose a hybrid theory of corporate governance that you conclude best fulfills the goal of private corporations acting ethically.

A 1450 kg cannon, which fires a 80 kg shell with a speed of 526 m/s relative to the muzzle, is set at an elevation angle of 39° above the horizontal. The cannon is mounted on frictionless rails, so that it recoils freely. What is the speed of the shell with respect to the Earth? At what angle with the ground is the shell projected?

We are evaluating a project that costs $839014, has an eight-year life, and has no salvage value. Assume that depreciation is straight-line to zero over the life of the project. Sales are projected at 63074 units per year. Price per unit is $37, variable cost per unit is $18, and fixed costs are $415935 per year. The tax rate is 35%, and we require a return of 21% on this project. What is the NPV of this base-case?

  • The utilization of marijuana for medical purposes in Ohio was approved in 2016 in House Bill (HB) 523. Although the program was set to begin September 8, 2018, numerous setbacks pushed back this commencement date, and medical marijuana finally became available for purchase in Ohio in January of 2019. Beyond the supposed medical benefits, many proponents of the bill argued medical marijuana could provide a boost to the state’s economy. What were some of the projections regarding the economic impact of HB 523? Given the data gathered so far, do economists still believe these impacts will come to fruition?

  1. Connor Company is considering the purchase of new equipment for $144,000. The expected life of the equipment is 8 years with no residual value. The equipment is expected to earn revenues of $114,000 per year. Total expenses, including depreciation, are expected to be $90,000 per year. Connor management has set a minimum acceptable rate of return of 20%. Assume straight-line depreciation.

    a. Determine the equal annual net cash flows from operating the equipment. Round to the nearest dollar.
