Golden Enterprises started the year with the following: Assets $107,000; Liabilities $37,000; Common Stock $67,000; Retained Ear
Tema [17]

Answer:

$3,650

Explanation:

Given that,

Assets = $107,000;

Liabilities = $37,000;

Common Stock = $67,000;

Retained Earnings = $3,000

Amount of net income:

= Revenue - Expenses

= $5,700 - $3,350

= $2,350

Closing retained earnings:

= Retained earnings at the start + Current year net income - Dividends paid

= $3,000 + $2,350 - $1,700

= $3,650

Therefore, the Golden's retained earnings at the end of the year is $3,650.

Q.2Tullahoma Company purchased equipment for $27,500. It depreciated the equipment over a fiveyear life by the double-declining-
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

A loss of $1400

Explanation:

The double-declining method uses twice the straight-line depreciation method rate in calculating the depreciation amount.

The asset has a useful life of 5 years. The straight-line depreciation rate = 1/5 x 100

=20%.

The double-declining rate will be 40%

The depreciation schedule for two years will be as follows.

Open. Bal Dep. rate Dep. Amount  Book value

$27,500  40%  $11,000   $16,500.00

$16,500  40%  $6,600             $9,900.00

The equipment was sold for $8,500

net gain or loss will be the selling price - book value

=$8,500 - $9,900

=- $1,400

A loss of $1400

Assume again that the cost of capital is 7 percent and the effective tax rate is 40 percent. How would the payback, internal rat
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

If the effective tax rate increases then the net savings coming from investments will get lowered as a result the investment will have higher payback period (The increase in effective tax rate would lower demand of the product which means there is decline in net saving arising from the sale of the product). Likewise this decrease in annual net savings will also decrease the internal rate of return which shows that their are increased chances of project rejections. The NPV method is based on cash flows and relevant costing just like IRR and payback method but the only difference is that it assumes that the cash earned would be reinvested at cost of capital. The NPV will also decrease due to increased effective tax rate.
