Answer:

D) $1.00

Explanation:

Opportunity cost is the next best option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives.

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

A corporation had the following assets and liabilities at the beginning and end of this year.

                                                     Assets             Liabilities

Beginning of the year             $ 76,500             $ 32,796

End of the year                           132,000               53,460

    Details                                                a           b        c       d

1 Beginning of the year Equity    43,704      43,704    43,704     43,704

2 Owner's investment (+)                 -         -           45,000      35,000

3 Dividends (-)                                 -          10,200        -     10,200

4 Net income / loss (+)               34836     45,036     -10164       10,036

5 End of the year Equity          78540      78540      78540      78540

Explanation:

Equity = Assets - Liability

Beginning of the year = 76500 - 32796 = $43,704

End of the year = 132000 - 53460 = 78540

Net income = End of year equity -  (Beginning of the year Equity + Owner's Investment - Dividends)

a) Net income = 5 -  (1 + 2 - 3)

                   = 78540 - (43704  + 0 - 0)

                   = 34,836

b) Dividend of 850 per month = 850 * 12 = 10,200

Net income = 5 -  (1 + 2 - 3)

                   = 78540 - (43704  + 0 - 10200)

                   = 45,036

c) Net Income = 5 -  (1 + 2 - 3)

                       = 78540 - (43704  + 45000 - 0)

                       = -10,164

d) Dividend of 850 per month = 850 * 12 = 10,200

Net Income = 5 -  (1 + 2 - 3)

                     = 78540 - (43704  + 35000 - 10200)

                       = 10,036

Owner's investment increases equity

Dividends reduce equity

Net Income increases equity

Suppose the civilian noninstitutionalized working age population is 35.9 million in Laborland, 4.6 million are working part time
frozen [14]

Answer:

The answers are:

A) 25.23 million people

B) 70.28%

C) 4.92 million people

D) 19.50%

Explanation:

Laborland's total labor force can be calculated by adding those who are employed and those who are unemployed but were searching for a job during the last month.

  • 4.6 million (part-time employed) + 15.71 million (full-time employed) + 3.2 million (looked for a job two weeks ago) + 1.72 million (looked for a job between two and four weeks ago) = 25.23 million people

Laborland's labor force participation rate can be calculated by dividing the labor force by the total population.

  • (25.23 million / 35.9 million) x 100% = 70.28%

Laborland's total unemployed can be calculated by adding the number of people without a job that searched for a job during the last month.

  • 3.2 million + 1.72 million = 4.92 million people

Laborland's unemployment rate can be calculated by dividing the total number of unemployed people by the total work force.

  • (4.92 million / 25.23 million) x 100% = 19.50%

Marigold corp. has 634000 shares of $10 par value common stock outstanding. during the year marigold declared a 13% stock divide
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

No. of shares outstanding before stock dividend = 634000

Price per share = $46

Stock dividend issued (shares issued) = 634000 x 13%

= 82,420

Value of stocks issued as stock dividend = 82420 x $46 = $3,791,320

No. of shares outstanding after stock dividend = 634,000 +82,420

=716420

Cash dividend = 716420 x 0.60

= 429,852

Total reduction in retained earnings = total value of dividend issued

= $3,791,320 + $429,852

= $4,221,172
