Explanation:
The journal entry to record the re-issuance of the stock is shown below:
Cash A/c Dr $240,000 (20,000 shares × $12)
Retained earnings A/c Dr $80,000
To Treasury stock $320,000
(Being the re-issuance of the stock is recorded)
The computation is shown below:
For treasury stock
= 20,000 shares × ($16 per share - $12 per share)
= $80,000
So as we can see the retained earnings is decreased by $80,000
Answer:
A : balance sheet only
Explanation:
In the given question, the truck was purchased on credit and the truck is a fixed asset that comes under the balance sheet only because in the income statement, the expenses and revenues are recorded whereas retained earnings records profit which is left to the company.
So, it affects the balance sheet only. As balance sheet records all types of assets and all types of liabilities plus shareholder equity.
Answer:
differentiated products.
Explanation:
An oligopoly occurs when a few large firms dominate a market and they aim to maximise profit. The action of one firm has significant effect on the market, so the firm's are interdependent.
There are high barriers to entry including use of government liscences, patents, economies of scale, and actions taken by firms to discourage entry into the market.
However differentiation of products is not a necessary condition for oligopoly. Products can be homogenous or differentiated.
Answer:
C. To enforce property rights
Explanation:
Government intervention in market can be non materistically via regulation , materistically via taxes & subsidy.
Although the second materislistic way of tax, subsidy comes under the perview of 'Government Budget' .
Government budget is anual financial statement showing economy's expected revenue & expenditure .
Economic growth & stability by reallocation of resources , reducing income inequalities - reflect 'efficiency' & 'equity' as valid reasons .
Foreign protection is also not invalid depending upon the initial budding stage of a developing economy & its global stand. Eg - India 1950 to 1990 .
However all these are progressive legitimate reason for govt. Intervention .
But , enforcing property rights is a feature of 'socialistic (communistic) economy - which has its own demerits like loss of consumers soveireignity , lack of postive competitive efficiency , govt overburden.
Answer: D. will be less than the intrinsic value of stock Y
Explanation:
Based on the information given above, the intrinsic value of Stock X will be calculated thus:
D1 = Dividend in next year = $3
g = growth rate = 7%
r = = 13%
Therefore, intrinsic value of Stock X will be:
= D1 / (r-g)
= 3 / (13% - 7%)
= 3/6%
= 3 / 0.06
= $50
Therefore, the intrinsic value of stock X is $50.
Intrinsic value of Stock Y will b calculated thus:
D1 = $4
g = 7%
r = 13%
Intrinsic value of Stock Y will be:
= D1 / (r-g)
= 4 / (13% - 7%)
= 4/6%
= 4 / 0.06
= 66.67
Intrinsic value of Stock Y is $66.67
Therefore, the intrinsic value of Stock X will be less than the intrinsic value of Stock Y
