Dominik [7]

Answer:

31 Dec Expense A/c Dr. $5,400

To Prepaid Expense A/c $5,400

(Therefore, expense for the current financial year recorded)

Explanation:

We know that at the time of insurance paid in advance on 1 April for 2 years, entry was;

Prepaid Insurance A/c Dr. $14,400

To Cash A/c $14,400

Now at year end the expense relating to current period shall be recognized properly in the books, so that matching principle of revenue against expenses shall be matched.

Thus, period from 1 April to 31 December = 9 months

Expense for 9 months = $14,400 \times \frac{9}{24} = 5,400$

That means expense for the year = $5,400

Therefore, entry for such recording will be:

31 Dec Expense A/c Dr. $5,400

To Prepaid Expense A/c $5,400

(Therefore, expense for the current financial year recorded)

For a recent year L’Oreal reported operating profit of €3,385 (in millions) for its Cosmetics division. Total assets were €12,88

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

The correct answer is 26.05%.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Beginning Assets = 12,888 ( million)

Ending Assets = 13,099 (million)

Operating profit = 3,385 (million)

So, Average Assets for the year = (12,888 + 13,099) ÷ 2 = 12,993.5 (million)

So, we can calculate the return on investment by using following formula:

Return on investment = Operating profit ÷ Average assets for the year

By putting the value, we get

Return on investment = 3,385 ÷ 12,993.5 (million)

= 0.2605 or 26.05%
