Answer:

Investment balance is $742,000

Explanation:

The treatment of associates will be in-accordance with equity method:

The equity method says that the investment must reflect its fair value.

The fair value of the investment = Cost of shares - Dividend's share Received  + Share of Profit invested

Value of Investment = $800,000 - $32000 ($80,000 Total Dividend * 40%)  + Reinvestment through Net Income $80,000 ($200,000 * 40%) = $848,000

The value of the investment after sale of shares will fall by 5000 share out of 40000 shares, this means the fall in value is:

Fall in value of investment = 5,000 / 40,000 × $848,000 Value of investment = $106,000

New Value = $848,000 - $106,000 = $742,000

Answer:

1. Prepare the journal entries to record the development costs in 2021 and 2022. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)

December 31, 2021

Dr Research and development expenses 2,300,000

    Cr Cash 2,300,000

February 28, 2022

Dr Research and development expenses 900,000

    Cr Cash 900,000

April 30, 2022

Dr Software development 500,000

    Cr Cash 500,000

2. Calculate the required amortization for 2022. (Enter your answer in whole dollars.)

  • $66,667 (8 months, from May to December)

Explanation:

development costs:

September 30, 2021 to December 31, 2021 = $2,300,000

January 1, 2022 to February 28, 2022 =  $900,000

R&D costs that must be expensed = $3,200,000

R&D costs that can be capitalized (after technological feasibility is obtained) = $500,000

Software developing companies can capitalize costs incurred after technological feasibility but before the software is launched.

Capitalized costs can be amortized over 60 months:

$500,000 x 8/60 = $66,666.67

The student is very unrespectful in his writing

I would be sort of surprised from this email because it is written in a way where I most likely wouldn't be used to.

Based on the email, I would think this student is irresponsible and/or doesn't care enough about the work. He's only half committed to it.

Sergio [31]

Answer:

d. dismissing all managers who fail to achieve operational goals specified in the budget

Explanation:

The budget, no matter how well it's done, It's a forecast.

Price can change without the company being able to intervene, the same goes for consumer demand, foreign currency rates changes, and other variables in the budget.

Having that in mind, the accounting can measure the variance and check the efficiency and price influence in the result below expected.

Therefore, dismiss immediately after not achieving a goal is not the purpose of a budget

In the United States, what does the general level of a family’s income have to do with the amount of cash the family is likely t
Sophie [7]

Answer:

The general level of family's income is directly proportional to the amount of cash a family is likely to hold

Explanation:

Of the three motives of money, transactional motives of money relates to holding money(whether at hand or at bank) to meet daily transaction e.g buying of fuel/gas, transport fare to work place.

If the level of income of a family increases, other things being equal, the family tends to hold more money for their daily transaction. The level of income is directly proportional to amount of cash a family holds...

For example, family A earns $100 per week and holds $30 to meet daily transaction or unforeseen circumstances. If his pay increases to$150, it is intuitive for Mr A to hold higher money, lets say $50

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

d. $33,641.50

Explanation:

In this question, we use the PMT formula which is shown in the spreadsheet.  

The NPER represents the time period.

Given that,  

Present value = $375,000

Future value = $0

Rate of interest = 7.5%

NPER = 25 years

The formula is shown below:

= -PMT(Rate;NPER;PV;FV;type)

So, after solving this, the answer would be $33,641.50
