Answer:

The firm paid $630000 dividends in 2019

Explanation:

Retained earnings is the amount of net income that is not distributed to stockholders and is ploughed back into the business. It is a capital reserve account and appears in the equity section of the Balance Sheet. To determine the amount of Dividends, we will trace the change in Retained earnings and deduct the increase in retained earnings amount from the Net Income to arrive at dividends for the year.

Increase in Retained earnings = 4000000 - 3700000  =  $300000

Thus, out of the Net Income of $930000 earned in 2019, $300000 was transferred to retained earnings. The remaining was paid as dividends.

The dividends in 2019 are = 930000 - 300000 = $630000

Alex

Answer:

$30.59

Explanation:

<em>Note that the FIFO method is used for this question</em>

Equivalent Units

Materials =  5,200 x 100 % + 300 x 100 % = 5,500

Conversion Costs = 400 x 55 % + 5,200 x 100 % + 300 x 35 % = 5,525

Total Costs

Materials =  $25,200

Conversion Costs = $143,700

Cost per Equivalent unit

Materials =  $25,200/5,500 =  $4.58

Conversion Costs = $143,700/5,525 = $26.01

Total Cost = $4.58 + $26.01 = $30.59

<u>Conclusion</u>

The cost of completing a unit during the current period was $30.59

Endor Company begins the year with $110,000 of goods in inventory. At year-end, the amount in inventory has increased to $118,00
Arada [10]

Answer:

11.40

32 days

Explanation:

Inventory turnover and days of sales of inventory are examples of activity ratios.

They are used to measure the efficiency of performing daily tasks

inventory turnover =  Cost of goods sold/ average inventory

Average inventory = ($118,000 + $110,000) / 2 = $114,000

Inventory turnover =  $1,300,000 / $114,000 = 11.40

days of sales of inventory = 365 / inventory turnover = 365 / 11.40 = 32 days
