Expenses likely to be classified as prepaid expense (asset) are Prepaid Rent & Insurance Premiums. Enter a prepaid rent payment on the balance sheet as an asset until the month when the company is actually using the facility to which the rent relates, and then charge it to expense. Any insurance premium costs that have not expired as of the balance sheet date should be reported as a current asset such as Prepaid Insurance.

Prepaid expenses are those expenses that are paid for in one accounting period. The first and the foremost example of prepaid expenses (assets) is insurance. Insurance is paid before hand, in advance on many occasions for example, health insurance. Apart from this another example can be rent, you have to pay the rent one month in advance and then live in place. On the other hand accrual expenses are liabilities. Hence these two are the best examples of prepaid expenses.

You are trying to explain to your friends the importance of using real GDP to measure economic health over time, but some of the

Yuri [45]

Answer: $15,909.09

Explanation:

Nominal GDP is the value of goods and services that is calculated on the basis of current year prices whereas Real GDP is the value of goods and services that is determined on the basis of Base year prices. If we are using the identical price for both the years for calculating GDP then we can see the increment in the current year GDP from the last year. This means that the quantity of goods produced in the current year is larger than the last year. That's why it is important to use Real GDP rather than Nominal GDP.

Given that,

Nominal GDP (millions of dollars) = $14000

Price level (GDP deflator) = 88

$\text{GDP dflator}=\frac{Nominal\ GDP}{Real\ GDP}\times100$

$\text{88}=\frac{14,000}{Real\ GDP}\times100$

Real GDP = 159.09 × 100

= $15,909.09

Hence, Real GDP = $15,909.09.

Therefore, Real GDP is greater than Nominal GDP hence we can say that the amount of good produced is worth more than $14,000.

Splendid Occasions received $2,970 for services to be performed for the next 8 months on March 31 and recorded this transaction

Kay [80]

Answer:

If Splendid Occasions had recorded their service revenue using the other method, how much service revenue would they have recorded for the year?

Ans: $2,970

The ''other method'' in question is the Cash method which recognizes revenue when cash is paid unlike the Accrual method that recognizes it when earned.

Using the Cash method the Service Revenue would be $2,970 because the cash has been received for it.

If Sweet Catering had recorded transactions using the Cash method, how much net income (loss) would they have recorded for the month of May?

= Cash revenues - Cash expense

= Received cash for meals served to customers - Prepaid rent for three months - Received and paid electricity bill

= 2,530 - 2400 - 60

= $70

If Sweet Catering had recorded transactions using the Accrual method, how much net income (loss) would they have recorded for the month of May?

= Revenue - Expense

= Served a banquet on account + Received cash for meals served to customers - Rent - Electricity - Accrued salary expense - depreciation

= 2,810 + 2,530 - (2,400/3) - 60 - 2,670 - 380

= $1,430
