Answer:
A) $3,429
Explanation:
Bonus capital paid by the new shareholders will be distributed among the Old Partner on the basis of their old sharing ratio
Capital Balance of Peter = $38,000
Settlement amount = $20,000
As we does not have revised profit ratios, Peter and Chris will share profit on their old ratios.
Remaining balance of Gary's capital = $26,000 - $20,000 = $6,000
Peter Share = 4/7 x $6,000 = $3,429
  
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
Contingent liabilities refer to those obligations which might arise in the near future based upon the happening or non happening of a certain event and it's outcome.
Such liabilities are recorded if there is likeliness of an event happening and when they can be reasonably quantified and estimated.
In the given case, the automobile manufacturer will probably be required to recall it's products. The amount can be estimated. 
In such cases, such expense is to be recognized in the income statement and at the same time a liability for such expenses needs to be created in the balance sheet. Product recall refers to replacement of defective products by the manufacturer. It is similar to a warranty. 
Reporting on Dec 31 would be as follows,
Warranty Expense A/C                             Dr. $2.5
     To Warranty Liability                                            $2.5
(being product recall liability for for 2.5 million created)

Answer:
The correct answer is the option C: broad needs, many customers. 
Explanation:
