Answer:

23.25%; 62.01%

Explanation:

(a) Amount received:

= No. of shares × selling price

= 100 × $43

= $4,300

Sales deposit = 60% of Amount received

                        = 0.6 × $4,300

                        = $2,580

Amount paid = No. of shares × Purchase price

                      = 100 × $49

                      = $4,900

Therefore, Loss = $4,900 - $4,300

                           = $600

(b) If buys at $27, then

Amount paid = $27 × 100

                     = $2,700

Profit = $4,300 - $2,700

         = $1,600

Loss on investment:

= ($600 ÷ $2,580) × 100

= 23.25%

Profit on investment:

= ($1,600 ÷ $2,580) × 100

= 62.01%

kramer

<u>Calculation of amount of stockholders' equity at the end of the year:</u>


At the beginning of the year, Morales Company had total assets of $816,000 and total assets increased $178,000 during the year, hence Total Assets at the end of the year shall be 816000+178000 = $994,000


At the beginning of the year, Morales Company had total liabilities of $526,000 and total liabilities decreased $82,000 during the year. Hence Total Liabilities at the end of the year shall be 526000-82000 = $444,000


Now we can calculate amount of stockholders' equity at the end of the year as follows:

Equity = Assets – Liabilities

= 994,000-444,000

= $550,000


Hence, the amount of stockholders' equity at the end of the year shall be <u>$550,000</u>
