Answer:
The equipment originally cost 40,000 and has a salvage value of 8,000, which means that the amount that can be depreciated is 32,000. It has a life of 8 years and follows a straight line method so the yearly depreciation would be 32,000/8= 4,000.
The depreciation for the first 2 years is 4000*2= 8,000
So the book value of the asset is 40,000-8000= 32,000
Since according to the new estimate the total life is 5 years, and 2 years have already passed the remaining life of the asset is 3 years. Also since there is no change in salvage value the amount that can be depreciated is 32,000-8,000= 24,000
To find out the deprecation in year 3 we will divide 24,000 by the reaming life which is 3.
24,000/3= 8,000
The depreciation expense in year 3 would have been $8,000

Answer:
a) $337,615.38
b-1) $360,910.85
b-2) $415,266.92
c-1) $362,637.36
c-2) $438,461.54
Explanation:
a) To find the current value of the company, we have:
=
= $337,615.38
b-1) If the company takes on debt equal to 30 percent of its unlevered value.
337,615.38 + (0.23 * 337,615.38 * 0.30)
= $360,910.85
b-2) When the company can borrow at 10 percent. The value of the firm if the company takes on debt equal to 100 percent of its unlevered value will be:
337,615.38 + (0.23 * 337,615.38 * 1)
= $415,266.92
c-1) The value of the firm if the company takes on debt equal to 30 percent of its levered value:
= $362,637.36
c-2) The value of the firm if the company takes on debt equal to 100 percent of its levered value:
= $438,461.54

Explanation:
The basic theory illustrated in (Figure) is that, because of the existence of fixed costs in most production processes, in the first stages of production and subsequent sale of the products, the company will realize a loss. For example, assume that in an extreme case the company has fixed costs of ?20,000, a sales price of ?400 per unit and variable costs of ?250 per unit, and it sells no units. It would realize a loss of ?20,000 (the fixed costs) since it recognized no revenue or variable costs. This loss explains why the company’s cost graph recognized costs (in this example, ?20,000) even though there were no sales. If it subsequently sells units, the loss would be reduced by ?150 (the contribution margin) for each unit sold. This relationship will be continued until we reach the break-even point, where total revenue equals total costs. Once we reach the break-even point for each unit sold the company will realize an increase in profits of ?150.
For each additional unit sold, the loss typically is lessened until it reaches the break-even point. At this stage, the company is theoretically realizing neither a profit nor a loss. After the next sale beyond the break-even point, the company will begin to make a profit, and the profit will continue to increase as more units are sold. While there are exceptions and complications that could be incorporated, these are the general guidelines for break-even analysis.
As you can imagine, the concept of the break-even point applies to every business endeavor—manufacturing, retail, and service. Because of its universal applicability, it is a critical concept to managers, business owners, and accountants. When a company first starts out, it is important for the owners to know when their sales will be sufficient
