Answer:

Explanation:

The question is asking fro the Reporting of the two copyrights in Skysong's balance sheet as at December 31,2020

Assumption: The first copyright was developed internally while the second copyright was purchased from the University Press

<u>Based on this assumption, therefore, </u>

For Copyright one: Since it was developed internally, it will not reflect in the balance sheet, it will not be recognized as an asset because it does not have any separate legal rights different from the organisation that developed it. As such it will be recorded in the Income statement as an expense

For Copyright two: This is an intangible asset with an indefinite number of useful life. Hence, $32,000 will be reported in the balance sheet as an intangible asset but the cost will only be tested for impairment and not amortized.

With good internal​ controls, the person who handles cash can also
Nitella [24]

Answer: None of the above.

Explanation:

The correct answer will be "None of the above." The person who handles cash cannot issue credits to customers on sales returns. This could be because their job function does not include this process.

The person also may not account for cash receipts to customers. They can also not account for cash purposes. This could also be because these processes are not included in the persons job function or duties.

Each job function has a clear set of duties that one can perform. Each business has different jobs for people and this particular one does not allow for the person handling cash to do anything else.

<span>Active endeavors specializes in sporting equipment. Recently, it has decided to add to its business units by opening a steakhouse near a convention center. This strategy is an example of: conglomerate diversification. 

Conglomerate diversification is a growth strategy when organizations add new products or services that are vastly different from anything they've sold prior. These new business opportunities are unrelated to their previous and operate completely different.

Leker exchanged real property that was used exclusively for business and had an adjusted tax basis of $20,000 for new real prope
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

$17,000

Explanation:

Leker's Old Property Adjusted Tax Basis = $20,000

To calculate the new basis, subtract the $3000 recieved in cash from the new property.

New Tax Basis; $20,000-$3,000= $17,000

The transaction of Leker to exchange a real property for another led to a loss: Meaning a Property of $20,000 was exchanged for a property of $10,000+ $3,000 (cash)= $13,000

The Loss on the transaction= $20,000- $13,000= $7,000

Due to the loss no gain is recognized and the $3000 will reduce the basis for his new asset.
