1. Selling PPE – What Happens When You Sell?
Key ideas
PPE is carried on the balance sheet at cost – accumulated depreciation = book value (carrying value).

Journal entry pattern
Assume: Cost of machine = 50,000, Accum. dep. at sale date = 35,000, Cash proceeds = 18,
ADAPTATIONS
Adaptation = heritable trait ↑ fitness. Types: structural, behavioral, physiological. NS: variation→heritability→differential survival→allele freq change. Predict adaptations by matching trait to environmental pressure.
DISTRIBUTIONS & NICHES
Patterns: random, uniform, clumped. Determined by dispersal limits, abiotic factors, biotic interactions. Fundamental niche = possible; realized = actual after competition/predation.
POPULATION GROWTH
Exponential: discrete Nt+1=λNt
