Answer:

1. Her return on investment is 20%

2. $40,000

Explanation:

1. We have Return on Investment = Net income from the Investment / The invested amount.

The net income is clearly stated in the Question which is the after-tax profit at $20,000.

The invested amount of Amelia is the amount she invested in Goodies Gift Shop which is illustrated as net worth ( owner's equity) at $100,000 in the Balance Sheet (Year 2).

As we have Return on Investment =  20,000/100,000 = 20%

2. We have the projected pre-tax profit = Projected margin - total overhead = 250K - 200K = $50,000

   The after-tax profit = pre-tax profit x (1- tax rate) = 50K x (1-20%) = $40,000

Received contributions of $ 10 comma 000$10,000 in exchange for common stock. a. Increase asset (Cash) ; Increase equity (Common
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

The answer is stated below:

Explanation:

A. Received or collected $10,000 in exchange of the common stock:

This transaction will have an impact on the Accounting Equation of the Accounts, which is :

Assets = Liabilities + Equity

As the cash is received, there will be an increase in the assets and under the cash account of the current assets. Though the cash is against the common stock, which increases the common stock account upon the side of the equity.

Therefore, it will be:

Increase in assets (Cash) : Increase in equity (Common Stock)

B. Bought the equipment on account worth $5,000.

This transaction will have an impact on the Accounting Equation as:

As the equipment is purchased will in turn lead to increase in the assets side, under the equipment account and it is purchased on account, which means on credit, that leads to increase in the liability under the Accounts Payable account.

Therefore, it will be:

Increase in assets (Equipment) : Increase in Liability (Accounts Payable)

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

Gain= $850

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchase price= $33,000

Useful life= 4 years

Residual value= $2,000

Sale= $10,600.

<u>First, we need to calculate the annual depreciation:</u>

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation= (33,000 - 2,000)/4= $7,750

<u>Now, we can calculate the accumulated depreciation:</u>

Accumulated depreciation= 7,750*3= $23,250

<u>To calculate the gain or loss, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Gain/loss= selling price - book value

Book value= purchase price - accumulated depreciation

Book value= 33,000 - 23,250= $9,750

Gain/loss= 10,600 - 9,750

Gain= $850
