Answer:

The correct answer is C: 48000

Explanation:

The Expenditure Approach is a method of measuring GDP by calculating all spending throughout the economy including consumer consumption, investing, government spending, and net exports. This method calculates what a country produces, assuming that the finished goods and services of a country equals the amount spent in the country for that period.

<u>The formula is: </u>

GDP=C+I+G+/-NX

GDP: Gross Domestic Product

(C) consumer spending – this is the amount that all consumers spend on goods and services for personal use.

(I) investment – this is the amount that businesses or owners spend to invest in new equipment or expansions.

(G) government spending – this includes spending on new infrastructure like bridges and roads.

(NX) net exports – this includes spending on a country’s exports minus its spending on imports.

AddedGDP= 56000-8000

AddedGDP= 48000

Answer:

Transaction                       Assets            Liabilities        Stockholders' Equity

Issue common stock           Increase               NE                      Increase

Issue preferred stock         Increase               NE                      Increase  Purchase treasury stock     Decrease             NE                       Decrease

Sale of treasury stock         Increase              NE                        Increase  Declare cash dividend            NE                   Increase                   NE

Pay cash dividend               Decrease            Decrease NE

100% stock dividend              NE                        NE                      NE

2-for-1 stock split                    NE                       NE                         NE

When shares are sold or issued, they increase the stockholders equity as people buy these shares. They also increase assets because cash comes into the company when the shares are sold. This is why the Issuing of preference and common stock as well as the sale of Treasury shares had the same effects.

When cash dividends are declared, they become a liability that is owed to equity holders.

When these dividends are then paid, they remove the liability but reduce assets as cash is used to pay the dividends.

100% stock dividend reduces retained earnings but increases equity so stockholders equity does not change.
