Answer: (a) $295 million

(b) $326 million

Explanation:

Given that,

Sales = $900 million during 2016

Cash = $871 million

Cost of goods sold = $280 million

Expenses for the year totaled = $325 million

Paid for Inventory = $375 million

Paid for everything else = $285 million

Beginning cash = $115 million

(a) Net Income = Sales - Cost of goods sold - Expenses for the year totaled

                        = $900 - $280 - $325

                        = $295 million

(b) Carter's cash balance at the end of 2016:

= Cash + Beginning cash - Paid for Inventory - Paid for everything else

= $871 + $115 - $375 - $285

= $326 million

ycow [4]
Elastic.
This is the formula for elasticity:
Elasticity = (Quantity variation/Quantity)/(Price variation/Price)
Inelastic demand is the one in which a variation in price doesn’t lead to an important variation in the quantity bought by consumers. So, in the formula, numerator is much smaller than denominator, so the fraction is lower than 1. That happens with necessary goods (typically, food).
On the contrary, elastic demand is the one in which a variation in the price leads to an important variation in the quantity bought by consumers, and that means the fraction is higher than 1. So if I sell the product at a lower price, I will sell much more product.
Considering the formula: R = P*Q, when demand is elastic, I will have much more sold quantity with just a little lower price, which leads to a higher revenue.

Cardinal Industries purchased a generator that cost $11,000. It has an estimated life of five years and a residual value of $1,0
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

$2080

Explanation:

Given: Cost of generator= $11000.

           Residual value= $1000.

            Estimated life of generator= 5000 hours.

            Actual activity performed during the period= 1040 hours.

Now, finding the depreciation expense for the first year using the units-of-activity method.

Formula; Depreciation\ expense= \frac{(cost- residual\ value)}{Total\ estimated\ life\ time\ activity} \times actual\ activity\ performed

⇒ Depreciation expense= \frac{(11000-1000)}{5000} \times 1040

Opening parenthesis

⇒  Depreciation expense= \frac{10000}{5000} \times 1040

⇒  Depreciation expense=  2 \times 1040 = \$ 2080

Hence, the depreciation expense for the first year using the units-of-activity method of depreciation is $2080.

Elden [556K]

Answer:

The journal entry for the issuance of the preferred stock is shown below:

Explanation:

Cash A/c..................................................Dr   $30,000

    Preference Stock A/c....................................Cr $10

    Paid in Capital in excess of Par A/c...........Cr   $29,990

Working Note:

Cash = Shares × Issued price per share

where

Shares are 1,000

Issued Price per share is $30

= 1,000 × $30

= $30,000

Preference Stock = Shares × Par price

= 1,000 × $0.01

=$ 10

Paid in Capital in excess of Par = Cash - Preference stock

= $30,000 - $10

= $29,990
