Mark Johnson saves a fixed percentage of his salary at the end of each year. This year he saved $2,000. For each of the next 5 y
adell [148]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

$17,437.28

Explanation:

First of all, let us lay out the particulars that will aid us in our calculations:

Amount saved in year 1 = $2000

Number of years saved in total = 6 years

annual rate of savings increase = 10% increase on the amount for that year to the next year

Annual return on investment = 13%.

Next, let us calculate the 10% increase in savings from years 2 to 6.

Year 1 investment = $ 2000

Year 2 investment = Year 1 saving + 10% of year one saving

hence, investment 2 saving = 2000 + (10/100 × 2000) = 2000 + (0.1 × 2000)

Year 2 investment = 2000 +200 = $2,200.

Year 3 investment = year 2 saving + (0.1 × year 2 saving) = 2200 + (0.1 × 2200)

year 3 investment = 2200 + 220 = $2,420

Year 4 investment = 2420 + (0.1 × 2420) = 2420 + 242 = $2,662

Year 5 investment = 2662 + (0.1 × 2662) = 2662 + 266.2 = $2928.2

Year 6 investment = 2928.2 + (0.1 × 2928.2) = 2928.2 + 292.82 = $3,221.02

Next, let us create a table to show the total amount for each year.

Note, to determine the 13% annual investment return on each year:

13% = 13/100 = 0.13. So, we will multiply the investment for each year with 0.13 to get the annual investment. It is shown hence:

Year   Investment (I) ($)   Annual return (AR) ($)    Total amount (I + AR) ($)

1             2000                   260                                     2260

2            2200                   286                                     2486

3            2420                   314.6                                   2734.6

4            2662                   346.06                               3008.06

5            2928.2                380.67                               3308.87

6            3221.02               418.73                                3639.75

Total                                                                             17,437.28    

                     

Therefore, at the end of 6 years mark would have $17,437.28 (approx. $17,437)

Prepare adjusting entries for the following transactions.
g100num [7]

Answer:

1. Debit Depreciation expense  $1,340

  Credit Accumulated depreciation  $1,340

2. Debit Interest expense  $275

   Credit Accrued Interest  $275

3. Debit Supplies expense  $450

   Credit Supplies Account  $450

4. Debit Unearned Service revenue  $3,100

   Credit Service revenue  $3,100

5. Debit Salaries expense  $900

   Credit Accrued Salaries  $900

Explanation:

Depreciation is the systematic allocation of the cost of an asset to the income statement over the estimated useful life of that asset.

It is determined as the depreciable value of the asset over the estimated useful life of the asset where the depreciable value is the difference between the cost and salvage value of the asset

Mathematically,  

Depreciation = (Cost - Salvage value)/Estimated useful life

It is recorded by debiting depreciation and crediting accumulated depreciation.

When interest is incurred as an expense but yet to be paid, it will be accrued for by Debiting Interest expense and crediting accrued Interest. The same applies to salaries incurred but yet to be paid.

When Supplies is purchased, Debit supplies and credit Cash/Accounts payable. As Supplies are used up, debit supplies expense (with the amount used) and Credit Supplies account.

Amount of supplies used up = $550 - $100

= $450

When a fee is received in advance for a service yet to be rendered, the revenue for such fee is said to be unearned. The entries required are

Debit Cash account and Credit Unearned fees or deferred revenue.

As the service is performed and the revenue is earned, debit Unearned fees and credit revenue.

Earned revenue = $4,000 - $900

= $3,100

Rudyard Corporation had 110,000 shares of common stock and 11,000 shares of 7%, $100 par convertible preferred stock outstanding
Burka [1]

Answer:

$2.73

Explanation:

<em>Diluted Earnings Per Share = Earnings Attributed to Common Stockholders ÷ Weighted Average Number of Common Stockholders Outstanding</em>

where,

Earnings Attributed to Common Stockholders = $420,000

and

Weighted Average Number of Common Stockholders Outstanding = 110,000 + (11,000 x 4) = 154,000

therefore,

Diluted Earnings Per Share = $420,000 ÷ 154,000 = $2.73

Conclusion

Rudyard's diluted EPS is $2.73

Using accrual accounting, expenses are recorded and reported only: _A. when they are incurred and paid at the same time. B. if t
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

C. when they are incurred, whether or not cash is paid.

Explanation:

In accrual accounting, expenses are recorded in the moment they are incurred, even if they have not been paid for.

In fact, the term "accrued expense" means an expense that has been incurred, but not yet paid.

One common example of an accrued expense is accrued wages:

Suppose that a firm hires a worker on March 1, for a wage of $1,000 dollars per month, that is due to be paid at the end of the month (March 31). This worker is earning $33 per day. By March 4, the firm should have recorded accrued wages for $132 ($33 x 4 days) even if no payments will be made until March 31.
