Answer:
the gift shop must recognize 31 days of accrued interest payable, total interest = principal x interest rate x time passed
= $50,000 x 12% x 31/365 days = $509.59
the adjusting entry should be:
December 31, accrued interest on note payable
Dr Interest expense 509.59
Cr Interest payable 509.59
<u>Calculation of Return on Total Assets:</u>
Return on Total assets can be calculated using the following formula:
Return on Total Assets = Net Income / Total Assets
We can calculate Net income as follows:
Sales $2960
Less: Operating Costs $2675
Less: Interest charges $125
Income before tax = 160
Less: Tax (160*40%) = 64
Net Income = $96
Hence , Return on Total Assets = 96/2100 = 0.0457 =<u>4.57%</u>
I Would say C. Never took business but it seems like the logical answer.
