Answer:

Connor is correct

Explanation:

Connor is correct because he is likely to earn a higher salary and more benefits throughout his career and also save for a life after retirement.

By earning $25000 more in salary (that is $60000 - $35000) because he has a college degree and phoebe do not have a college degree, he could make up the money spent during the course of his college degree and save more money during his career

Answer:

C) Connor is correct because he is likely to earn a higher salary throughout his career. By earning by only $11,000 more in salary, he could make up the difference over the life of his career. He is also likely to have more employee benefits to save for his retirement.

Explanation:

Actually the average wage of someone that only completed high school is $29,815, if you get an associate or technical degree your salary increases to $35,394, and the largest leap is for college graduates that earn $52,019.

It is significant difference between going to college or not, almost twice the salary. Even though going to college is expensive, in only a few years you will recover your investment (yes, education is an investment not a expense).

A much higher salary also allows a person to get more employee benefits, which add up and increase the difference.

Also, most of the high paying jobs that didn't require a college degree are starting to require them, e.g. manufacturing jobs at car factories are currently requiring certain skills and knowledge about computers and programming. So the difference in salaries between both types of jobs is likely to increase in the future.

Answer:

Change in Assets is $127,500

Explanation:

The accounting equation for a corporation is:

Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders' Equity

⇒ Liabilities = Assets - Stockholders' Equity

= $285,000 - $130,500

= $154,500

At the end of years,

Liabilities amount = Liabilities in the beginning + Change in liabilities = $154,500+ $90,000 = $244,500

Stockholder's equity amount = Stockholder's equity + Change in stockholder's equity = $130,500 + $37,500 = $168,000

The assets at the end of year = $168,000 + $244,500 = $412,500

Change in Assets = $412,500 - $285,000 = $127,500

Shorter answer:

Change in Assets = Change in Liabilities + Change in Stockholders' Equity

= $90,000 + $37,500 = $127,500

maksim [4K]

Answer:

A. The amount of interest expense to record for 2018 is $320, calculated as follows: $12,000 x 8% x 4/12 = $320.

B. No amount of cash was paid for interest in 2018; i.e. = $0.00

C. Effect of each transaction on balance sheet, income statement, and statement of cash flows:

1. Cash Revenue of $16,200

Balance Sheet - Cash and Retained Earnings are increased by $16,200.

Income Statement - Revenue is increased by $16,200.

Statement of Cash Flows: Cash inflows are increased by $16,200. It is an operating activity (OA)

2. Bank Note Payable of $12,000 with accrued interest of $320 for 2018:

Balance Sheet - Cash and Notes Payable are increased with $12,000; Interest on Notes Payable is increased by $320 and Retained Earnings decreased by $320.

Income Statement: Net Income is decreased by $320.

Statement of Cash Flows: Cash inflows are increased by $12,000. It is a financing activity (FA).

Explanation:

1. Cash revenue increases net income and Cash Account balance, and reflects positively on the cash flows for operating activities.

2. Notes Payable increases Cash Account balance (an asset) and Notes Payable (a liability). It also increases the cash inflow for financing activities.

3. Accrued Interest on Notes Payable increases liability and decreases the net income, which reflects negatively on the Retained Earnings (Equity). It does not affect the statement of cash flows as no disposal had been made yet.
