Answer:

b. decrease no effect

Explanation:

When the treasury stock is repurchased and at a premium. That is the price more than the par value, the excess is debited to the additional paid in capital account as this is the account used to fund the additional amount required to pay the differential.

Retained earnings on the other hand are unaffected by this transaction as long as the company has enough funds in the paid in capital account to complete the transaction.

Total paid in capital will decrease

Retained earnings will have no effect

Hope that helps.

Suppose that in the second year her average total cost per dog is $35 and that $20 of that is associated with the variable cost.
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

She should stay open, because the revenue of from dog grooming ($30 per dog), is still high enough to cover her variable cost of $20 per dog, even though she is operating at a loss.

Explanation:

Profit = Revenue - Total costs

Total costs = Fixed costs + variable costs

Profit = $30 - $35 = -$5 per dog

This shows she is operating at a loss of $5 per dog.

If a company does not make enough revenue to cover its total costs, then it is operating at a loss.

However such a company must consider its variable cost before deciding whether to shut down.

A company should only shut down if it is unable to make enough revenue to cover its variable cost.

If a company is operating at a loss but can at least cover its variable cost, then it should stay open at least in the short run.
