Answer:

a-1. The present value of Plan 1 = $93.08

a-2. The deal 2 which involves paying immediately adn taking the 10% discount is better.

Explanation:

a-1.

The interest rate of 5% is taken as the discount rate to convert future cash flows into the present value.

The First payment plan with installments has a present value of,

Present Value-Plan 1 = 25 + 25/1.05 + 25/1.05² + 25/1.05³ = $93.08

a-2.

The first plan will cost $93.08 in the present value.

The second plan will involve immediate payment and a discount of 10%vwhch makes the present value of plan 2 as $90 (100 - (100*0.1)).

Thus, the second deal or deal involving immediate payment and taking the discount is better.

Revenues earned and received in cash were $9,000.

Dividends of $4,000 were paid to stockholders.

Expenses incurred and paid were $5,600.

Answer:

Jiminez, Inc.

Income Statement for the month ended March 31:

Revenue                                          $9,000

Expenses                                           5,600

Net income                                      $3,400

Dividends                                          4,000

Retained earnings during the year ($600)

Explanation:

Jiminez, Inc. paid more dividends to stockholders this month than it actually generated in net income.  The excess amount of dividends must be from retained earnings carried forward from the previous month.  In preparing the income statement for the month of March, Jiminez, Inc. must deduct all the expenses from its revenue to obtain the net income before tax.  The bank loan does not form part of the items for the preparation of the income statement, as only temporary accounts are considered.

False

In simple words, Severance pay can be understood as a salary and/or incentives given to an individual by a company after the job is over. In order to help an individual obtain a new job, severance arrangements can include additional rewards, such as life care and observer ship support.

Thus, the weekly benefits are not included in this and the above statement is incorrect.
