Answer:

Journal Entry

General Ledger                   Dr.          Cr.

Cash                                 $7,085

Sales Tax Payable                           $585

What are the two basic requirements to support the declaration of a cash dividend? What are the effects of a cash dividend on as
artcher [175]

Two basic requirements to support the declaration of a cash dividend are:-

1) Retained earning accounts should have a positive balance greater than dividends, as dividend can be issued only from free reserves.

2) the cash account has a balance greater than the amount of dividend declared, as we have to pay cash for dividend in the near future

Cash dividends affect cash and equity on the balance sheet. Retained earnings and cash are deducted by the sum of dividends. Equity dividends do not affect a company's liquidity, only the equities section of the balance sheet.

mixer [17]

Answer: <em>$1,160,000</em>

Explanation:

Given:

Retained earnings (beginning) = $1 million

Dividend paid = $100,000

Net income = $250,000

Goodwill increased by = $10,000

Therefore, we'll compute Retained earnings (end of the year) as:

Retained earnings (end of the year) = Retained earnings (beginning) + Net income + Increase in Goodwill - Dividend paid

Retained earnings (end of the year) =  $1,000,000 + $250,000 + $10,000 - $100,000

Retained earnings (end of the year) = $1,160,000

Suppose you want to play a carnival game that costs 7 dollars each time you play. If you win, you get $100. The probability of w
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

The correct answer would be $5

Explanation:

The formula to use is "Expected return to player" which is

E(x) = x.p(x)

where x is the return to player if they win

and p(x) is the probability of winning.

So here,

x = $100 (return to player for winning)

p(x) = 1/50 (probability of winning)

Therefore expected return to player is

E(x) = x.p(x)

= $100 x 1/50

= $100/50

= $2

Cost: $7

Expected return to player is $2.

Therefore Loss (to player) is Cost minus Expected return

= $7 - $2 = $5 <---- expected value for the carnival to gain,

The loss to the player is the carnival's gain. It's $5.
