Business
1 answer:
Rama09 [41]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

B. Cash, accounts receivable, inventories, prepaid items.

Explanation:

In the balance sheet, assets are presented in an orderly manner guided by the amount of time they take to convert into cash. Assets requiring the shortest time to convert into cash will appear first. Cash will always be on top as it does not require conversion.

Goodwill comes last as the business will have to be sold for it to turn into cash.  

  1. In the list provided, cash will appear first.
  2. Accounts receivable is money a business expects to receive from customers for goods or services provided.  In practice, the money should be received within 60 days
  3. Inventories in assets refer to finished goods in the store. They are awaiting sales. Inventories will take longer as stocks have to be sold and become account receivable before converting to cash.
  4. Prepaid items are expenses paid before their due date. They appear in the balance sheet as cash assets because they have not been consumed. The expectation is that they will be utilized within the current year. Converting into cash them will require getting a refund from the recipient of the funds, which could be a lengthy process.

Kitty [74]

Answer:

cash provided by operating activities  84,000

Explanation:

net income  75,000

Adjustment (A)

gain on land   (500)

depreciation   1,500

Adjusted net income                  76,000

Change in working capital

↑account receivable   (3,000) (B)

↓long term AR             10,000 (C)

↑Account payable         1,000 (D)

Net changes                               8,000

cash provided by operating activities  84,000

<u>Notes:</u>

(A)

The net income may have non-monetary term, we need to remove those to get and adjusted net income on a cash basis

the gain on land is not a monetary term. We will record the proceeds in cash for the sale under investment activities, not operating as the business is not selling land every year.

depreciation is an accounting metric, is not an actual expense, it doesn't involve cash.

(B)

the increasein the Ar means more sales were not collected therefore, less cash collected.

(C)

the decrease in the long term AR  represent the collection, so it increases the cash

(D)

the increase in account payable represent the delay of payment, so company has more cash available.

Real GDP

Cost of apple= $0.50 in 2002

Apple produced =5 in 2002

Cost of oranges= $1 in 2002

Orange produce= 5 in 2002

0.50*(5)+$1.00*(5)

=$7.50

GDP deflator = Nominal GDP/Real GDP)

=$12.50/$7.50

=1.666

approximately 1.7
