Answer:

Present Value of the Investment is $17246.

Explanation:

The Discounting formula would be used to discount the future value $20,000 at the required rate of 2.5% for 6 number of years. So the formula is as under:

Present Value = Future Value / (1+r)^n

By putting values, we have:

Present Value = $20,000 / (1+2.5%)^6 = $20000 / 1.120 = $17246

Dawson must invest now $17246 to receive $20000 after 6 number of years.

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

The amount of investment income is $52,000

Explanation:

Assets of $690,000

Liabilities of $230,000

Spoon's assets were equal except for land, which had a fair value $108,000 more than book value, and equipment, which had a fair value $80,000 more than book value.

Net income of $68,000

Paid dividends of $34,000

Proportionate share of reported income

Share in income from investment = 68000 × 100% = $68,000

Depreciation on equipment = (80,000 ÷ 5) = ($16,000)

Amount of investment income = $68,000 - $16,000

= $52,000

Fox, Inc. reported net income of $300,000 for the current. Changes occurred in several balance sheet
Kitty [74]

Answer:

$347,000

Explanation:

Cash flow, operating activities:

Net income                                                              $300,000

Depreciation expense                                                 52,000

Gain on sale of equipment                                    <u>      (5,000)   </u>  

Cash provided by operations                                 $347,000

Depreciation expense ($52,000) does not indicate any cash being paid, hence it must be added to Net Income.

The $5,000 must be subtracted from Net Income in the Operating Section, because the $18,000 ($25,000-$12,000+$5,000) contains the $5,000 of cash received, and it should be shown increasing the Net Income only in the Investing Section.

Hope this helps!
