Answer

Hi,

Correct answer option is {a}

Explanation

Comparative advantage occurs when a nation produces a good or service for a lower opportunity cost than other countries. In this case, the advantages of buying their goods or services will surpass the disadvantages. This is to say that country may not be the best nation in production of a particular good or service but the good or service offers a low opportunity cost for other nations to import. A good example is oil-producing nations who have a comparative advantage in chemicals because the oil is locally produced thus a cheap raw material for chemicals as compared to nations without oil production.

Best of Luck!

jasenka [17]

Answer:

$923,450

Explanation:

The question is to calculate the equity method balance of Domingo's investment in Martes. Inc at December 31,2015

Step 1: Determine the amortization of patents

Particulars                                                 Amount

Martes Inc Assets' Book Value             $4,808,000

Subtract: Liabilities                                    ($968,000)

Martes Inc Net Assets Book Value       $3,840,000

20% Voting Stock Book Value                  $768,000

(20% of $3,840,000)                  

Subtract: Purchase cost of the 20%         ($889,000)

Excess of Cost over book value                $121,000

Patent (the excess above)                          $121,000

Amortization of the patent in 10 years = $121,000/10 years = $12,100

Step 2: Calculate the Equity Investment of Domingo Inc

Particulars                                                                       Amount

Cost of Investment                                                        $889,000

Income accrued 2017 (0.2 x $225,000)                       $45,000

Subtract: Declared dividend (0.2 x $104,000)              ($20,800)

Income Accrued 2018 (0.2 x $276,250)                        $55,250

Subtract: Patent Amortization                                         ($12,100)

Subtract: Dividend declared 2018 (0.2 x $104,000)      ($20,800)

Subtract: Patent Amortization                                         ($12,100)
