Answer:

C.

Explanation:

Financial Statements depicts the financial position of a firm at a particular point of time or specified date. The users of financial statements use various types of analysis to understand or compare the current financial statements of the company to prior years or with those of the competitors.

The journal entry on declaration of dividend would lead to a debit to retained earnings and credit to dividends payable.

Answer:

$28,600

Explanation:

Both sales and variable cost are dependent on the number of units sold.

The sales less the variable cost gives the contribution margin. The contribution margin less the fixed cost gives the net operating income.

As such, the net operating income/loss is the difference between the sales and the total costs.

The company's net operating income (loss)

= $42,300 + $94,700 -  $108,400

= $28,600

Why might the current and quick ratios for the electric utility and the​ fast-food stock be so much lower than the same ratios f
yulyashka [42]

Current ratio is a comparison of current assets to current liabilities, calculated by dividing your current assets by your current liabilities.

The quick ratio compares the total amount of cash + marketable securities + accounts receivable to the amount of current liabilities.

C. These two industries deal with cash mainly. Cash doesn't have to be physical currency, but accounts that can easily be paid.

D. Low current and quick ratios are actually signs of good management not poor management.

The nature of the tax system means that there is usually a trade-off between ___ and ___.
IgorC [24]

Answer:

<u>equity and efficiency</u>

Explanation:

Under the tax system there is no tax on losses. And also the losses can be carried forward and set off to profits in future.

When profits are earned the taxes are paid. After that the remaining profit is either distributed to equity or retained for future purposes.

The more efficiently the company works, higher will be the profit and higher will be the taxes.

As profit is for equity, and from that share the amount is given to tax authorities, which is some part of income, share of equity to tax.

Though it does not provide for right in company, but it is legal to pay the tax.

That is the price you pay for increasing or decreasing efficiency, in the form of income available for equity.
