Answer:
22.85
Explanation:
Present value (PV): $500,000
Rate: 6.5% per annual
Payment (PMT) : $40,000 per year
We can use excel to calculate the maximum number of whole payments that can be withdrawn before the account is exhausted
=NPER(rate, PMT, -PV,,1) = NPER (6.5%,40000,-500000,,1) = 22.85
Answer: b. reduce taxes and cut back on some social programs
Explanation:
When the Economy is not doing well, Social programs are usually targeted as they usually take a lot of money from the Government's coffers.
It is also a generally held view that reducing taxes as a Fiscal policy can help stimulate the Economy by leaving the public with more funds to invest in and spend on the Economy.
The Government of Ruritania is therefore most likely to combine reducing Social programs as well as reducing taxes. This will have the effect of leaving the Government with some money as it loses revenue from taxes whilst also enabling the public to have more money to invest and to spend which will then lead to Economic growth.
Answer:
<em>a)Corrected net income= $97,000</em>
<em>b) Total assets figure is understated.</em>
Explanation:
<em>To arrive at the net income, cost of goods sold is usually deducted from the sales revenue. An cost of sold is determined by subtracting the value of inventory. So an understated inventory would mean an overstated </em><em>cost of goods sold </em><em>and </em><em>understated net income</em>
<em>Correct net income = 90,000 + 7,000</em>
<em> = $97,000</em>
<em>Inventory is part of current assets s reported in the balance sheet . Therefore, if inventory is understated it implies that the current assets figure is understated and therefore the</em><em> total assets figure is understated.</em>

Answer:
26762.74
Explanation:
Prior service cost amortization for 2020 can be calculated by first calculating the average time until the employee's retirement. After calculating the average time until retirement we will divide the service cost at that time
Workings
average time until retirment = 1880/330
average time until retirment = 5.69 years
prior service cost amortization for 2020 = $152,280/5.69
prior service cost amortization for 2020 = $26762.74
