Answer:

Explanation:

1. Before passing the journal entries, we have to determine the amount of bonus payable that is shown below:

Let us assume that the bonds payable at the year end be X

So, the equation is

X = 0.03 × ($500,000 - X)

X = $15,000 - 0.03X

X + 0.03 = $15,000

X = $15,000 ÷ 1.03

   = $14,563

Now the journal entries are

2. Employees bonus expense A/c Dr $14,563

               To Bonus payable A/c $14,563

(Being the bonus  due is recorded)

3. Bonus payable A/c Dr $14,563

           To Cash A/c $14,563

(Being the payment is recorded)

Question 16 of 25
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer: B. Foreign cars become more expensive.

Explanation: The tariff slapped on imported goods such as cars and other foreign commodities will raise the overall cost of the product on the side of the seller and definitely the final selling price of such product to the consumers. This is used to raise revenue for the government and also to encourage the manufacture, adoption and support for locally manufactured products. Locally manufactured substitute will tend to be cheaper and the additional tariff may put importers and consumers off, and hence settle for cheaper locally made alternative.

Inessa05 [86]

Hey!

Answer: Errors

When you proofread, you're just looking over the reading making sure that there's no errors such as bad punctuation and bad grammar. And also the typographical errors.

  1. mistakes in grammar
  2. spelling
  3. style
  4. typographical errors

That would be some of the four that you would look at when you proofread. Hope this helps.
