2. Extraordinary gains or losses are economic events which originate from continuing infrequent and unusual operations.  These gains and losses stem from the normal business activities of the company, but, they do not happen regularly, and are abnormal in nature.

3. A prior period adjustment is the correction of a past accounting error that occurred in the past financial statements.

4. According to investopedia.com, "A change in accounting principle is a change in how financial information is calculated, while a change in accounting estimate is a change in the actual financial information.  Changes in accounting principles are done retroactively, where financial statements have to be re-stated.  But, changes in estimates are not applied retroactively.

How does the decline of industry contribute to budget deficits?
Finger [1]

Answer:

The decline of industry decreases aggregate supply, but it also decreases aggregate demand, i.e. fewer workers = lower demand for goods and services. Since the government receives money form taxing both industries and households, if both industries' and households' income decreases, the government will receive less tax revenue. Less revenue results in higher deficit.

avanturin [10]

Answer:

d. A debit to Work-in-Process Inventory, Finishing Department of $140,000.

Explanation:

Cost of unit transferred = $4 x 35,000 = $140,000

Cost incurred by mixing department is $4 which so the transfer of cost from mixing department to finishing department will be $140,000 for 35000 units. This cost will be recorded in the work in process inventory account of finishing department. As we know that WIP account has debit nature so same entry will be done to record an expense incurred in mixing department.

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

$80,000

Explanation:

The  \ expression \  for \  calculating \  cash  \ flow  \ to  \ stockholders \ is:

Cashflow  \ = \  Dividend  \ paid  \ during \  the \  year  \ -  \ change  \ in  \ t he \  value  \ of \  common  \ stock  \ during \  -  \ change \ in \ value \  of \ stock \ in \ the  \ previous \  yearHere;

Change \  in \  value  \ of \  Common  \ stock \ during  \ the  \ year \ = \ Value \ of \  Common \ stock \  of  \ the  \ Curren t \ Year -  Value\  of  \ Common  \ stock  \ of  \ the \ Previous \  Year

Change   \ in  \ valu e \  of  \ Additional \  paid  \ in  \ surplus \  account \  during  \ the \  year =

Value  \ of  \ Additional \ paid  \ in \  surplus \ account \ o f \  the  \ Current \  Year \ - \ Value \  of \ Additional \  paid  \ in \ surplus \  account \  of \ th e \ Previous \  Year

From the information given:

Dividend \ Payment  \ during \  the \  year 2020 = $320000

Value \  of  \ stock \  in \  current  \ yr= i.e. 2020 = $570000

Value \ of \ stock \ in \ previoius \ yr = i.e. 2019 = $530000

Change = $570000 - $530000 = $40,000

Value  \ of \  Ad ditional \  paid-in  \ surplus   \  acct  \ of    \ the  \ current  \ year = $2,500,000

Value  \ of \  Ad ditional \  paid-in  \ surplus   \  acct  \ of    \ the  \ previous  \ year = $2,300,000

Change = $2,500,000 - $2,300,000  = $ 200000

∴

By  \ using \  the  \ above \  information \ in \  the \  formula  \ for  \ calculating  \ the  \ cash  \ flow \ to

\ stackholder, \  we \ get:

= $320000 - $40,000 - $ 200000

= $80,000

The Signal Company has operating income (EBIT) before depreciation expense of $1,500,000. The company’s depreciation expense is
ANEK [815]

Answer:

A. Net income is $825,000; and Net cash flow is $1,225,000.

B. Net income is $750,000; and Net cash flow is $1,150,000.

C. Parts A net cash flow will equal part B net cash flow by deducting $75,000 difference, or Parts B net cash flow will equal part A net cash flow by addiing $75,000 difference.

Explanation:

The following are given:

Operating income (EBIT) before depreciation expense = $1,500,000

Depreciation expense = $400,000

Tax rate = 25%

We therefore proceed as follows:

A. If the company is 100% equity financed (zero debt), calculate its net income and net cash flow.

<u>Calculation of net income</u>

Income after depreciation but before tax = Operating income (EBIT) before depreciation expense - Depreciation expense = $1,500,000 - $400,000 = $1,100,000

Tax expense = Income after depreciation but before tax * Tax rate = $1,100,000 * 25% = $275,000

Net income = Income after depreciation but before tax - Tax expenses = $1,100,000 - $275,000 = $825,000

<u>Calculation of net cash flow</u>

Net cash flow = Net income + Depreciation expense = $825,000 - $400,000 = $1,225,000

B. If the company (instead) has $100,000 in annual interest expense, recalculate the net income and net cash flow.

<u>Calculation of net income</u>

Income after depreciation and interest expenses but before tax = Operating income (EBIT) before depreciation expense - Depreciation expense - Interest expense = $1,500,000 - $400,000 - $100,000 = $1,000,000

Tax expense = Income after depreciation and interest expense but before tax * Tax rate = $1,000,000 * 25% = $250,000

Net income = Income after depreciation and interest expense but before tax - Tax expenses = $1,000,000 - $250,000 = $750,000

<u>Calculation of net cash flow</u>

Net cash flow = Net income + Depreciation expenses = $750,000 + $400,000 = $1,150,000

C. Explain the difference in your answers to parts A & B – specifically, reconcile the change in net cash flow that occurred.

Difference in net income = Part A net income - Part B net income = $825,000 - $750,000 = $75,000

Difference in net cash flow = Part A net cash flow - Part B net cash flow = $1,225,000 - $1,150,000 = $75,000

Each of Part A net income and net cash flow is $75,000 greater than part B because part A is an 100% equity financed with the need to pay annual interest expense on debt of $100,000 like in Part B before calculating the Tax expense and the net income.

The $75,000 diffence is as a result of additional tax that Part A has to paid on $100,000. That is,

Additional tax expense in part A = Interest expense not paid in Part A * Tax rate = $100,000 * 25% = $25,000

Diffrenrence = Intererest expense not paid in part A - Additional tax expense = $100,000 - $25,000 = $75,000

For example, if there is no annual interest of $100,000 to be paid in part B, we can then reconcile by just addinf back the difference as follows:

Part B new net cash flow = Part B initial cash flow + Difference in net cash flow = $1,150,000 + $75,000 =  $1,225,000 = Part A net cash flow

Also, if annual interest expense has to be paid in part A as a result of being now financed by debt, we will just deduct the difference as follows:

Part A new net cash flow = Part A initial cash flow - Difference in net cash flow = $1,225,000 -  $75,000 =  $1,150,000 = Part B initial net cash flow.
