A person is planning to open a savings account with the intent to buy a house in 5 years. They will invest an equal amount each
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

The correct answer is C: $4300

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

They will invest an equal amount each month for 5 years.

This account will earn 6% per year(0.5% per month)and will have $300,000 at the end of the 5-year term

We need to use the following formula:

final value= {A[(1+i)^n-1]}/r

A= cuota

i= monthly interest

n= 60 months

Isolating A:

A= (FV*i)/[(1+i)^n-1]

A= (300000*0.005)/[(1.005^60)-1]

A= 1500/0.34885= 4300

The accounting equation is assets = liabilities + owner’s equity.
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

A. Why must this equation always balance?

It must balance because all the assets that firm controls have been acquired either by external funding (liabilities), or by internal funding (owner's equity).

This also explains the relationship between economic resources and claims to economic resources. Economic resources (assets) are either the claim of an external agent that has to be paid in the future (liability), or the claim of one of the company's owners who could in theory dissolve the company and take possession of the company's assets (equity).

B. What transactions increase or decrease owner’s equity?

Profits increase owner's equity, as well as capita contributions, whether in the form of stocks, equipment, or other financial instruments.

Costs and expenses are substracted from revenues, and therefore they reduce profits, and owner's equity.

C. How does net income or loss affect owner’s equity?

A net income profit increases owner's equity, while a net income loss decreases owner's equity.

D. Please give an example of a transaction, applied to the accounting equation.

ABC corporation issues 1,000 common stocks with par value of $5, and a price per stock of $7. The journal entry is:

Account                                    Debit                Credit

Cash                                        $7,000

Common Stock                                                 $5,000

Additional Paid-In Capital                                $2,000

In this transaction, cash is an asset and common stock and additional paid-in capital are part of the stockholder's equity. The corporation does not have any liabilities yet.

ABC Corp accounting equation = Assets = Liabilities + Stockholder's equity

                                                     = $7,000 = 0 + $7,000

As can be seen, the accounting equation is true even in the earliest stages of the corporation.

Malik Boykin is paid $8.20 per hour. and time and a half for any work over 40 hours
Viefleur [7K]

<u>Pay of Malik Boykin:</u>

Step 1:

Adding the total hours for each week:

Week of 3/10 = 5.5+6+9+12+7 = 39.5

Week of 3/17 = 8+8.5+9+13+4.5+4 = 47

Step 2:

Any sum of 40 hours or less gets multiplied by the hourly salary:

Week of 3/10: 39.5\times\$8.20 = \$323.90 - That's the pay for that week

Week of 3/17: 40\times\$8.20 = \$328

Step 3:

For hours worked over 40 the salary is 1.5 times the normal salary:

\Rightarrow\$8.20\times1.5 = \$12.30

Now multiply the hours over 40 for that week by the time and a half:

\Rightarrow\$12.30\times7 = \$86.10

And adding it to the \$328 we get,

\$328+\$86.10=\$414.10

Therefore,  Week of 3/10: \bold{\$323.90}  and  Week of 3/17: \bold{\$414.10}
