Problem 9-4
Comparison of Depreciation Methods

Italian Construction Company purchased a new crane for $360,500 at the beginning of year 1. The crane has an estimated residual value of $35,000 and an estimated useful life of six years. The crane is expected to last 10,000 hours. It was used 1,800 hours in year 1; 2,000 hours in year 2; 2,500 hours in year 3; 1,500 hours in year 4; 1,200 hours in year 5; and 1,000 hours in year 6.

1. Compute the annual depreciation and carrying value for the new crane for each of the six years under each of the following methods. When calculating the rate for double-declining-balance, round the percentage to two decimal places, like 16.67% or 33.33%. Round your answers to the nearest whole dollar.

Suppose you and most other investors expect the inflation rate to be 8% next year, to fall to 5% during the following year, and then to remain at a rate of 3% thereafter.

Problem 4-23
Determinants of Interest Rates

Suppose you and most other investors expect the inflation rate to be 8% next year, to fall to 5% during the following year, and then to remain at a rate of 3% thereafter. Assume that the real risk-free rate, r*, will remain at 2% and that maturity risk premiums on Treasury securities rise from zero on very short-term securities (those that mature in a few days) to a level of 0.2 percentage points for 1-year securities. Furthermore, maturity risk premiums increase 0.2 percentage points for each year to maturity, up to a limit of 1.0 percentage point on 5-year or longer-term T-notes and T-bonds.

Problem 3-18 Common-Size and Common-Base-Year Financial Statements

In addition to common-size financial statements, common-base-year financial statements are often used. Common-base year financial statements are constructed by dividing the current-year account value by base-year account value. Thus, the result shows the growth rate in the account.
  
Prepare the common-size balance sheet and common-base-year balance sheet for the company. Use 2016 as the base-year. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter all common-size answers as a percent. Round your common-size answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16, and common-base-year answers to 4 decimal places, e.g., 32.1616.)
