Answer:

Option D is correct,$1,950,000

Explanation:

In order to compute the closing balance of retained earnings, the preferred shares dividends for prior and current years as well as the common stock dividend must  be deducted from net income before adding the remnant to the opening retained earnings:

Net income                                                                $870,000

Preferred dividend prior year($100*20000*8%)     ($160,000)

Preferred dividend current year($100*20000*8%)   ($160,000)

Common stock dividend($2*100,000)                       ($200,000)

net income after dividends                                          $350,000

Closing retained earnings=$1600,000+$350,000

                                           =$1,950,000

Felton Co. produces rubber bands for commercial and home use. Felton reported $8 million residual income (RI) with $25 million n
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Residual income = Operating income - (r x Asset invested)

            $8 million = $13 million - (r x  25 million)

             $8 million = $13 million - r25 million              

              r25 million = $13 million - $8 million

              r25 million = $5 million

              r                 = $5 million/25 million

              r                 = 0.2 = 20%

            Thus, required rate of return is 20%

Explanation:

In this case, we need to apply the residual income formula. Operating income, asset invested and residual income have been given with the exception of rate of return. Thus, rate of return becomes the subject of the formula.
