Answer:
Dividends paid is $2 millions
Explanation:
The change in retained earnings during the year can be calculated by taking the difference between the opening and the closing balance which is calculated as under:
Change in Retained Earnings = $420 million - $395 million = $25 millions
The change in retained earnings during the year is the share of Net income retained by the company which means the remainder amount which is not retained by the company is Dividend paid.
And
Dividends paid = $27 million Net Income - $25 million Earnings Retained
Dividends paid = $2 millions
Answer:
x = 2.0785 and x = -2.245
Explanation:
The following is the step by step solution to the problem.
6x² + x - 28 = 0
Where,
a = 6
b = 1
c = -28
Using the formula,
x = [(-b + √((b)² - 4ac)) / 2a] and x = [(-b - √((b)² - 4ac)) / 2a]
x = [(-1 + √((1)² - 4(6)(-28))) / 2(6)] and x = [(-1 - √((1)² - 4(6)(-28))) / 2(6)]
x = [(-1 + 25.94) / 12 and x = [(-1 - 25.94) / 12
x = 2.0785 and x = -2.245
Answer: E) Both answers B and D are correct.
Explanation:
Inflation using the Consumer Price Index is calculated by;
= (CPI in current year - CPI in previous year) / CPI in previous year
Year 2 Inflation = (100 - 90) / 90
= 11%
Year 3 Inflation = (110 - 100) / 100
= 10%
Answer:
b. $5m
Explanation:
If we purchase another company for $50m and the company you purchase has assets with a fair value of $75m and liabilities with a fair value of $30m. The amount of goodwill we should record in this transaction is: $5m
Goodwill upon acquisition of companies is derived by subtracting the fair value of NET ASSETS from the TOTAL CONSIDERATION (i.e the price paid to acquire the company)
In the scenario, the value of Net Assets is the value of the fairvalue of the assets less the fair value of the liabilities which is $75 - $30 = $45
While the Total Consideration = $50
Therefore Goodwill = $50m - $45m = $5m
Answer:
A is the correct answer
