b. $29,125.

c. $40,875.

d. $18,125.

Answer:

$25,375

Explanation:

The After-Closing Trial Balance is prepared once the closing entries are posted. This results in closing of expense and income accounts for the year and the resulting balance taken forward to retained earnings. This means that After-Closing Trial Balance would contain only permanent general accounts which are balance sheet items. In the given scenario, the balance sheet debit balances are as under:

Cash                                                $7,750

Accounts Receivable                     $6,375

Office Equipment                           <u>$11,250 </u>

Total Debit Balance                      <u>$25,375</u>

Hence the option A is correct.

Weekly demand for tennis balls at The Racquet Club is normally distributed , with a mean of 35 cases and a standard deviation of
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

a-The average weekly profit is $1767.31

b- The probability of having a weekly profit of more than 2000 is 0.1587 or 15.87%.

Explanation:

a

The weekly average profit for the simulation is given where first the values are simulated using R which is given as below:

x<-round(rnorm(n,m,s))

Here

  • round converts all the values of the simlation to integer.
  • rnorm is the command for simulation
  • n is the number of values which is 52 in this case
  • m is the mean of the values which is 35
  • s is the value of standard deviation which is 5 cases.

The values of x are as follows

[1] 36 49 30 29 34 36 32 28 32 29 32 27 40 32 30 37 43 30 42 30 31 34 36 38 28 29 32 42 36 35

[31] 37 41 34 39 37 46 34 44 45 41 41 29 36 38 35 32 36 39 30 38 40 27

Now using these values, the average of the simulation values is cacluated as follows:

mean(x)

35.3462

Now using this with the value of profit of $50 gives:

Average Profit=$50 x 35.3462

Average Profit=$1767.31

The average weekly profit is $1767.31

b-

First number of cases are required so that the value will be greater than 2000 it is given as

Number of cases=2000/50=40

So firstly the Z-score is calculated which is as below:

Z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\Z=\dfrac{40-35}{5}\\Z=1

Now the probability is given as

P(X\geq 40)=P(Z\geq 1)\\P(X\geq 40)=1-P(Z< 1)

The value of P(Z<1) is calculated from the table which is given as

0.84134

So the equation becomes

P(X\geq 40)=1-P(Z< 1)\\P(X\geq 40)=1-0.8413\\P(X\geq 40)=0.1587

So the probability of having a weekly profit of more than 2000 is 0.1587 or 15.87%.

A single stock futures contract on a nondividend-paying stock with current price $180 has a maturity of one year.
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

a. $187.20.

b. $202.48.

c. $217.43.

Explanation:

Please find the below for detailed explanations and calculations:

We have the formula for determining the future price of the non-dividend-paying stock as below:

Future price = Spot price x (1+ annual risk free rate )n; which n = number of year(s) to maturity.

Thus, apply the general formula above, we have the below calculations:

a. Future price = 180 x (1+4%)^1 = $187.20;

b. Future price = 180 x ( 1+4%)^3 = $202.48;

c. Future price = 180 x (1+6.5%)^3 = $217.43.
