Answer:  $1,031 million

Explanation:

Given that,

Retained earnings(2010) = $14,329 million

Retained earnings(2009) = $13,157 million

Net income(2010) = $2,203 million

Amount of dividends = Retained earnings(2009) + Net income(2010) - Retained earnings(2010)

                                   = $13,157 million + $2,203 million - $14,329 million

                                   = $1,031 million

Therefore, amount of dividends did Colgate-Palmolive pay to its shareholders in 2010 is $1,031 million.

Calculate the amount of depreciation to report during the year ended December 31, 2013, for equipment that was purchased at a co
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

1) Straightline   $ 2000

2) Double-Declining-Balance  $ 4000

3) Units of Production  $ 2000

Explanation:

Cost of equipment $43,000

Residual value of equipment  $3,000

Useful life of equipment 5 years

Formula:

1) Straight Line Method Depreciation = Cost - Salvage Value/ Useful Life

Straight Line Method Depreciation = $43,000 -$3,000/5=$ 8000

The amount of depreciation using Straight Line Method Depreciation for the year ended December 31, 2013, is

($ 8000/12)*3= $ 2000

The straight Line depreciation expense for 3 months is $ 2000

2) Straight Line Rate= 100%

Useful Life= 100%/5 = 20%

Double Declining Method = 2 * Straight Line Rate

Double Declining Method = 2 * Straight Line Rate= 2*20%= 40%

Year     Book Value      Dep          Dep               Accu.       Book

                                      Rate         Expense      Dep.          Value

1           40,000             40              16000          16000         24000

Depreciation Expense for the whole year would be $ 16000.

Depreciation expense using double declining method for 3 months would be = ($ 16000/12 )*3= $ 4000

3) Depreciation per unit= (Cost -Salvage value) / Total units of production

Depreciation per unit=  $43,000 -$3,000/20,000=40,000/20,000=2

Depreciation Expense = Depreciation per unit * No of Units Produced

Depreciation Expense =  2*1000= $ 2000

Depreciation Expense using  Units of Production method would be $ 2000 for 3 months. i.e on 31st Oct 2013

A store offers two payment plans. Under the installment plan, you pay 25% down and 25% of the purchase price in each of the next
aev [14]

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.

Assume that the banking system has total reserves of $100 billion. Assume also that required reserves are 10 percent of checking
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

The money multiplier and money supply for this banking system is 10 and $1,000 billion respectively

Explanation:

The computation of the money multiplier and the money supply is shown below:

As we know that

Money multiplier is

= 1 ÷ required reserve ratio

= 1 ÷ 0.10

= 10

So, the money supply is

= Total Reserves × Money Multiplier

= $100 billion × 10

= $1,000 billion

hence, the money multiplier and money supply for this banking system is 10 and $1,000 billion respectively
