Answer:

= $62 billion

Explanation:

Since the country started year 1 with no public debt,

The country's debt at the end of year 5 = $50 (deficit year 2) + $30 (deficit year 3) - $20 (surplus year 4, negative deficit) + $2 (deficit year 5)).

= $62 billion

The country's debt at the end of year 5 = $62 billion

Public debt is the sum of deficits and surpluses (negative deficits) over time.

Explanation:

The equity method is a type of accounting used to incorporate investments. It is used when the investor holds significant influence over the investee but does not exercise full control over it.

An investor is deemed to have significant influence over an investee if it owns between 20% to 50% of the investee’s shares or voting rights.

- Jolley receives dividends of $10,000, which is 25% of $40,000, and records a reduction in their investment account. The reason for this is that they have received money from their investee.

- Jolley records the net income from Tige Co. as an increase to its Investment account.
