Elite Trailer Parks has an operating profit of $200,000. Interest expense for the year was $10,000; preferred dividends paid wer
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

a. Earnings per share = (Operating profit - Interest expense - Tax - Preferred dividends) / Common stock outstanding

Earnings per share = ($200,000 - $10,000 - $61,250 - $18,750) / $20,000

Earnings per share = $110,000 / 20,000 Shares

Earnings per share = $5.5 per share

Common dividends per share = Dividend paid / Common stock outstanding

Common dividends per share = $30,000 / 20,000 Shares

Common dividends per share = $1.50 per share

b. What was the increase in retained earnings for the year?

Increase in retained earnings = $110,000 - Common dividend paid

Increase in retained earnings = $110,000 - $30,000

Increase in retained earnings = $80,000

So,  the increase in retained earnings for the year is $80,000.

Successful businesses are keenly focused on their?
Degger [83]
Successful business people never take their eye off the one thing that made them successful in the first place: the primary function of any business is making money. You can't make money without customers or clients (unless you're in the business of robbing banks or bribing politicians).

     interest payable    300 credit

--to record accrued interest----

   cash                            40,900 credit

--to record honor of the note---

Explanation:

when signing the note we receive the cash and delcare the liability

at December 31th

we recognzie the accrued interest: for the month

we need to convert the annual rate to monthly: 0.09/12 = 0.0075

40,000 x 0.0075 = 300

at payment of the note, we write-off the note

we pay the full interest:

300 per month x 3 month = 900

we already accrued one so the expense will be for 600
