Answer:

Net Increase in Net Income will be $18,125

Explanation:

In simple words, when we consolidate accounts we NEVER take account of inter-company transactions which leads to profits OR losses.

So now we will eliminate the effect of the loss recognized by the parent company and the entry would be as under:

Dr Depreciation for the year At Parent percentage XX

Dr Retained Earnings    (Balancing figure)                 XX

Cr Loss from sale of Equipment                                       XX

The debit balance of depreciation at the parent percentage shows that the equipment is still 75% owned by the parent company. Hence the 75% of the per year depreciation must be recognized for the year.

Increase as the loss is added back to Net Income = $20,000

<u>Less</u> Depreciation for the year At Parent percentage = $20,000/8 * 75%

= ($1,875)

Net Increase in Net Income = $20,000 - $1,875 = $18,125

And Double Entry is as under:

Dr Depreciation for the year At Parent percentage $1,875

Dr Retained Earnings   (Balancing Earnings)            $18,125

Cr Loss from sale of Equipment                                          $20,000

The depreciation and the loss will be settle in the Cost of Goods Sold in the consolidated income statement.

Lindsey Hunter Corporation is authorized to issue 50,000 shares of $5 par value common stock. During 2020, Lindsey Hunter took p
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

Lindsey Hunter Corporation:

a) Journal entry to record item 1:

Debit Cash Account with $225,000

Credit Common Stock with 25,000

Credit APIC Account with $200,000

To record the issue of 5,000 shares of $5 par value at $45 per share

b) Journal entry to record item 2:

Debit Land Account with $50,000

Credit Common Stock with $5,000

Credit APIC Account with $45,000

To record the issue of 1,000 shares $5 par value at $50 per share.

c) Journal entry to record item 3:

Debit Treasury Stock with $21,500

Credit Cash with $21,500

To record the purchase of 500 treasury shares at $43 per share, using the cost method.

Explanation:

a) The costs related to the issuance of the stock totaling $7,000 had been deducted before arriving at $45 issue price.  These costs include attorney, accountants, and underwriting fees.  Companies have two options to treat these costs.  One is to treat them as organization costs and expense them accordingly or apply the costs to reduce the paid-in capital.  The later is the method elected by Lindsey Hunter and it is alright.

b) Company stock can be issued for cash or other assets, as in question 2.  The treatment is similar.  This time, Land is increased instead of cash.  The most important issue is the price at which the land is appraised and not the market value of the stock.  The difference between par value and issue value is credited or debited to the APIC account.

c) The APIC account represents "Additional Paid-in Capital" also described as Share Premium Account.  It is the excess of the issue value over the par value.

d) Treasury stock is company stock that was formerly outstanding and now bought back from stockholders.  It is a reduction of the Equity.  It is created as a contra account.  There are two methods of treating treasury stock.

One method accounts for treasury stock at cost while the second method accounts for it at par.  The difference is that when it is accounted for at cost, the repurchase value is debited to the Treasury account while the credit entry goes to the Cash account.

On the other hand, when it is accounted for at par, the par value is debited to the Treasury account while the difference between par and repurchase value is debited or credited to the APIC account.  The credit entry goes to the Cash account, as always.

motikmotik

Answer:

Irrational decision

Explanation:

Irrational decisions refer to those decisions which are not taken after enough deliberation, ignore the rationale, facts and logic, are rather decided out of whim and impulse and usually instantly decided.

In the given case, Joe was not willing to pay more than $500 cash yet eventually ended up paying $600. Even if the $25 gift card is considered, he ended up paying $575 which is more than he had decided to pay.

The choice of the consumer here is not rational or rather irrational since, he without considering other alternatives or exercise of judgement, without evaluating his costs, impulsively opted for the credit card lured by $25 gift card.

As per the economic theory, Joe's decision would be referred to as irrational.

Trust based on a person's competence would be summarized by this team member's affectionate statement towards another team membe
Maslowich

Answer:

The correct answer is:

I trust you to be able to accomplish this task (C)

Explanation:

First of all, you have to know the meaning of the word competence, and competence is a collection of related relevant abilities, know-how and skills required to act effectively on a job or situation. Which is a clear message passed by the speaker in the statement "I trust you to be able to accomplish this task", because the speaker knows that his team member possesses the right skills to carry out a task successfully.

The statement in option D ( "I trust you to do the right thing." ) also tells a little about competence because one of the definitions of competence highlights being sane, and one needs to be sane to do the right thing, but it is only second choice when compared to the statement in option "C".

Next time when you are faced with this kind of question, identify the keyword ( which in this case is competence), and use that to answer the question.

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer: High income countries with larger governments as a share of GDP have generally grown at a slower rate than the countries with smaller governments.

Explanation: Developing countries or countries with less money typically grow at a faster rate than higher income countries because returns related to capital are not as strong. In richer countries, they have higher capital and tend to grow at a slower rate.
