Answer:
An increase in dividends account
Explanation:
In accounting, a debit is used to record an increase in asset, an increase in expense and a decrease in liability.
With regards to the above, the correct option is an increase in dividends account because dividend is a current asset hence a debit records an increase in assets. Dividend is the returns paid to an investor or shareholder who invest or buys shares in a company. It is the reward paid to an investor for investing in a company.
Answer:
Option A is the cheapest.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The engineering department estimates costs of $450,000 for the first year. It is estimated that if process and plant alterations are made, the waste treatment cost will decline $43,000 each year. As an alternative, a specialized firm, Hydro-Clean, has offered a contract to process the waste liquids for 15 years for $225,000 per year.
We need to use the following formula and chose the smallest net present value:
NPV= Io +∑ [Cf/(1+i)^n]
Option A:
Io= 407,000
Year cost= 43,000
NPV= 734,061
Option B:
Yearly cost= 225,000
NPV= 1,936,368
It will not affect the current GDP at all. GDP is a measure of all <u>newly produced</u> goods and services during a year, so 2 years ago the TV's full value would have been included in the GDP, but the sale of the TV as a used good later on would not be counted.
