Jemima Ltd. purchased factory equipment for $200,000, and estimated that the equipment will have a $20,000 residual value at the end of its estimated 5-year useful life. If Jemima uses the double diminishing-balance method of depreciation, the depreciation expense for the second year after purchase would be

Question options:

A machine that cost $72,000 has an estimated residual value of $6,000 and an estimated useful life of 5 years or 30,000 hours. Using the units-of-production method, the depreciation expense for the second year, during which the machine was used 5,000 hours, would be

The earnings and dividends of Ned Computer Co. are expected to grow at an annual rate of 15 percent over the next 4 years and then slow to a constant growth rate of 8 percent per year. Ned currently pays a dividend of $1 per share. What is the value of Ned stock to an investor who requires a 12 percent rate of return?

Hints: 1) Calculate dividend for year 1 ~ 4 2) Terminal value at the end of year 4 3) Current price is the sum of pv of dividend and terminal value.

I am wondering what the rule is for determining functional group positions for the most stable chair and boat conformations of cyclohexanes; meaning basically is there a pattern as to whether the functional group will be axial or equatorial for the most stable conformation based on which C # it is attached to (i.e. C- 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6)?

What's the most stable for chair and boat of cis-1-bromo-4-methylcyclohexane as well as the trans-1-bromo-4-methylcyclohexane? (which group is axial and which is equatorial) Thank you

1. Consider an LP where you have to determine how much/many of each product to manufacture; there in all, TWO products made from three ingredients. The ingredient usage matrix is as follows. Ingredint1 ingredint2 ingredient3 Product1 1 5 2.5 Product2 4 3 3 Prices of products 1, and 2 are respectively, $65, $55 per unit. Prices of ingredients are respectively, $5, $2 and $4 per unit. You have to formulate an LP to maximize net profit. Product 1 cannot exceed 100 units; ingredient 2 cannot exceed 80 units in consumption.

(a) Define variables (10 points) (You will use these variables for (b)-(d))

(b) Write the objective function. (15)

(c) Write the constraint on the amount of product 1. (10)

(d) Write the constraint ensuring that you do not plan on using more of ingredient 2 than you have available.

The production department of Celltronics International wants to explore the relationship between the number of employees who assemble a subassembly and the number produced. As an experiment, two employees were assigned to assemble the subassemblies. They produced 15 during a one-hour period. Then four employees assembled them. They produced 25 during a one-hour period. The complete set of paired observations follows.

The dependent variable is production; that is, it is assumed that different levels of production result from a different number of employees.

3. Compute the coefficient correlation. (Negative values should be indicated by a minus sign. Round s_x, s_y and r to 3 decimal places.)

Depreciation Tax Shields
Mendota Company has purchased equipment for $200,000. After it is fully depreciated, the equipment will have no salvage value. Mendota may select either of the following depreciation schedules for tax purposes:

Assuming a 40% tax rate and a 12% desired annual return, compute the total present value of the tax savings provided by these alternative depreciation tax shields.
Round answers to the nearest whole number. Use rounded answers to calculate total.

Option 1 depreciation:

Option 2 depreciation:

Which depreciation schedule would be more attractive to Mendota?
