sasho [114]

Answer:

$10,000 (Credit balance)

Explanation:

Given that,

Income before tax = $400,000

Income tax payments during the year = $150,000

Income tax rate = 40 percent

Therefore,

The balance in income tax payable at the end of the year:

= Tax liability - Income tax paid

= ($400,000 × 40%) - $150,000

= $160,000 - $150,000

= $10,000 (Credit balance)

o-na [289]

Answer:

a) Stockholders' equity = $411,690

b) Stockholders' equity = $477,930

Explanation:

Accounting equation is defined as Assets = Liabilities + Equity.

a) If t the end of its accounting period, December 31, Ryan's Arcade has assets of $632,000 and liabilities of $220,310, the Stockholders' equity as of December 31 of the current year would be determined as follows:

$632,000 = $220,310 + Equity

Stockholders' equity = $632,000 - $220,310

Stockholders' equity = $411,690

b) If assets increased by $84,040 and liabilities increased by $17,800 during the next year, then Stockholders' equity would be determined as follows:

$632,000 + $84,040 = $220,310 + $17,800 + Equity

$716,040 = $238,110 + Equity

Stockholders' equity = $477,930
