- Economics Can you solve it manually, please.? A bank purchased a new computer information system which cost them $350,000. Suppose this is considered a 5-year MACRS property. The system can be salvaged for about $40,000 at the end of ten years. (a) What are the annual depreciation values for tax purposes over the system's useful life? (b) What is its book value at the end of year 2 for tax purposes?arrow_forwardJob-order costing is used to calculate the cost of producing a unique or custom-made product, whereas process costing is used for the production of standardized products. Job-order costing assigns costs to each job, while process costing assigns costs to each process or department. Job-order costing uses job cost sheets to accumulate costs for each job, while process costing uses departmental production reports to accumulate costs for each process. Job-order costing can have high variation in production costs per unit, while process costing typically results in more stable production costs per unit. Job-order costing is more suitable for small production runs, while process costing is more suitable for large-scale production. Job-order costing requires a higher level of record-keeping and tracking of costs for each job, while process costing requires tracking of costs for each department or process.arrow_forwardProblem: A leasing company is planning to purchase an asset for $15,000 with a 6-year life and assume no salvage value. The company can depreciate the asset over its useful life using a straight-line depreciation method. The company has just issued five-year notes at an interest rate of 10% per year. Tax rate = 21%. Maintenance (and other) costs = $1,350 per year for years 1-4, $2,200 per year for years 5-6. What is the after-tax break-event rent for this lease if payments occur at the beginning of the periods? (Hint: Use an excel sheet to solve this problem. You need to draw the lease cash flow table.)arrow_forward
