sveticcg [70]

Answer:

$1,456,000

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the value of the total equity of the combined firm, XY, if the purchase method of accounting is used

First step is to calculate the Assets from Firm X

Assets from Firm X = 25,000 ( $38 )

Assets from Firm X= $950,000 (book value)

Second step is to calculate the Assets from Firm Y

Assets from Firm Y = 22,000 ( $21 )

Assets from Firm Y = $462,000 (Market value)

Third step is to calculate the Goodwill

Goodwill = 22,000 ($21 + 2 ) - $462,000

Goodwill= $44,000

Now let calculate the the total equity of the combined firm, XY,

Total equity of XY = $950,000 + $462,000 + $44,000

Total equity of XY = $1,456,000

Therefore the value of the total equity of the combined firm, XY, if the purchase method of accounting is used will be $1,456,000

lidiya [134]

Answer:

C. Required reserves decrease by $20.

D. Outstanding liabilities decrease by $200.

A. Required reserves increase by $65.00.

D. Outstanding liabilities increase by $650.

Explanation:

<u>PART I:</u><u> The withdrawal from the checking accounts:</u>

makes the required reserves to decrease as there is less cash deposists.

Also, the bank no longer has the obligation to give this 200 dollars to Shantee thus, otstanding liabilities decrease by 200 as well:

checking deposits 200 debit

               cash                            200 credit

<u>PART II:</u><u> Deposit in a checking account</u>

This is the opposite. The bank reserve must increase by 10% of the deposit

650 x 10% = 65

And the outstanding liaiblities increase by the full amount as later the bank will give back 650 dollars to Dalon in the future.
