An asset was acquired on october 1, 2018, for $78,000 with an estimated 5-year life and $13,000 residual value. the company uses units-of-production depreciation and expects the asset to produce 20,000 units. calculate the gain or loss if the asset was sold on march 31, 2021, for $58,000. actual production was: 2018=500 units; 2019=3,000 units; 2020=3,500 units; 2021=1,000 units.

a)$11,200 gain.
b)$19,000 gain.
c)$6,000 gain.
d)$12,500 gain.

C)$6,000 gain.

Explanation:

For computing the gain or loss, first we have to determine the depreciation expense for each year which is shown below:

Depreciation per units

= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (estimated production units)

= ($78,000 - $13,000) ÷ (20,000 units)

= ($65,000) ÷ (20,000 units)

= $3.25 per units

Now for the 2018 year, it would be

= Production units in 2018 year × depreciation per unit

= 500 units × $3.25

= $1,625

For the 2019 year, it would be

= Production units in 2019 year × depreciation per unit

= 3,000 units × $3.25

= $9,750

For the 2020 year, it would be

= Production units in 2020 year × depreciation per unit

= 3,500 units × $3.25

= $11,375

For the 2021 year, it would be

= Production units in 2021 year × depreciation per unit

= 1,000 units × $3.25

= $3,250

Now the accumulated depreciation would be

= $1,625 + $9,750 + $11,375 + $3,250

= $26,000

Now the book value would be

= Acquired value of an asset - accumulated depreciation  

= $78,000 - $26,000

= $52,000

So, the gain would be

= Sale value - book value

= $58,000 - $52,000

= $6,000 gain

answer: a. the kind of population living in your neighbourhood.

the census explorer data tool by the us census bureau allows the user to zoom in on any neighbourhood within the united states and find the kind of people residing in that by race and age.  

the tool needs to needs to be used twice – once in order to find what type of people reside in a neighbourhood, and then to see the age groups of the people in the same neighbourhood.
