We have slowly increased our demand for high-value items and therefore need credit cards rather than cash because carrying around.

For illustration,$ 40k in cash on your way to buy an auto isn't the safest idea. We can change the normalization of debt in the future by tutoring in academic ways to avoid debt and tutoring the true consequences of having so important debt.

Credit is generally defined as an agreement between a lender and a borrower. Credit also refers to an existent's or business's creditworthiness or credit history. In account, a credit may either drop means or increase arrears as well as drop charges or increase profit.

credit, which is capitalist that is available for you to borrow, debt is capitalist you've formerly espoused but haven't yet paid back. Credit is simply the capability to acquire debt.

still, you're adding$ 50 in debt, If you use your credit card to make a$ 50purchase. A loan can be considered as a disbenefit balance when the loan is given out by the business while it can be considered as a credit balance when it's taken by the business. Also, read MCQs on Trial Balance.

(3) To calculate the cost of producing one watch if the company produced 110,000 watches in 2018

Sales / Numbers of watches produced

= 269,500 / 110,000

= $2,45

Workings of schedule of cost of Goods Manufactured

Utilities =0.65 × 9,200 = 5,980

Insurance = 0.7 × 2,500 = 1,750

Rent Expense = 0.9 × 27,000 = 24,300

Factory equipment depreciation = Cost - Salvage value / Number of years

= 50,000 - 5,000 / 5

= 45,000 /5

= 9,000

Workings of cost of Goods sold

Cost of good sold = Beginning finished good inventory + Cost of Good Manufactured - Ending finished good inventory

= 3,750 + 191,830

= 195,580

Workings of income statement

Utilities = 0.35 × 9,200 = 3,220

Insurance= 0.3 × 2,500 = 750

Selling Expense = 0.35 × 34,700 = 12,145

Administrative expense = 0.3 × 30,900 = 9,270

10% of rent expense allocated to selling & Administrative

Selling = 0.1 × 34,700 = 3,470

Administrative = 0.1 × 30,900 = 3,090

Income taxes = 0.21 × 27,275 = 5,727.75

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

1. groups costs into meaningful buckets that are then distributed based on the activity or product they support.

In this manner overheads that shall be charged on some standard products based on the activities involved is charged accordingly, and not based on standard overhead allocation rate.

Basically the overheads are divided into various activities and then distributed  to each product based on the volume of activity in the manufacturing process of such activity.

Which of the following best describes equilibrium?
QveST [7]

Answer:

C. A situation where no economic agent would benefit by changing his or her behavior

Explanation:

An economic equilibrium is when the agents are optimizing their decisions and opposing market forces are equal. This point allows the economic agents to maximize their utility and any change from this point will cause all agents to move away from potential maximum benefits.

In a natural equilibrium there is usually no government intervention so option A is false. Option B gives only one agent potential benefits and as such there is no equilibrium. Option D is conditional and may or may not happen as when the agents find missing information they would optimize again and move to an equilibrium.

Hope that helps.

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Journal Entry

a) Debit Capital- Benson $138,000 Credit Capital-North $138,000

b) Debit Capital- Benson $138,000 Credit Capital-Schmidt $138,000

c) Debit Capital-Benson $138,000 Credit Bank $138,000

d) Debit Capital-Benson $138,000 Debit Capital-Meir $28,500 Debit Capital-Lau $47,500 Credit Bank $214,000

e) Debit Capital-Benson $138,000 Debit Accumulated Depreciation $23,000 Credit Cash $30,000 Credit Equipment $70,000 Credit Capital-Meir $22,875 Credit Capital-Lau $38,125

Explanation:

a and b are the same with the same amount of capital transferred from one partner to another partner, it is just a matter of derecognizing Benson and recognize North or Schmidt.

c) Partner Benson is paid cash her capital,

d) decrease in meir's Capital = 214,000-138,000 = 76,000*3/8= $28,500

   Decrease in Lau's Capital Account = $76,000 5/8 = 47,500

Excess funds are taken from capitals or income summary account of the partnership which will affect the capitals of the remaining partners

e)  Meir's Capital = $138,000 -(70,000-23,000+30,000)

                            = $138,000-77,000

                           = $61,000*3/8 =$22,875

Lau = $61,000*5/8 =38,125

The Capital Accounts of the remaining partners will increase because of the gain made on buying out the leaving partner.
