Simora [160]

Answer:

Thus, the JetBlue's equity at the end of the year is $1,654 million

Explanation:

In this case, the accounting equation is used.

Accounting equation means the equation which shows double accounting entry system. Double accounting means debit side and credit side. In this accounting equation, the total assets is equal to total liabilities + total equity.

Total Assets = Total Liabilities + Total Equity

$6549 = Total Liabilities + $1,546

Total Liabilities = $5,003 million

In the question the assets is increased by $44 million whereas liabilities is decreased by $64 million.

So,

Updated asset value = $6,549+$44

= $6,593 million

Updated liabilities value = $5,003 - $64

= $4,939 million

So, the ending equity value will be

= Ending assets - Ending liabilities

= $6,593 million - $4,939 million

= $1,654 million

Thus, the JetBlue's equity at the end of the year is $1,654 million

Dr. Investments in Associates 50,000

The equity method is a type of accounting used to incorporate investments. It is used when the investor holds significant influence over the investee but does not exercise full control over it.

An investor is deemed to have significant influence over an investee if it owns between 20% to 50% of the investee’s shares or voting rights.

- Jolley receives dividends of $10,000, which is 25% of $40,000, and records a reduction in their investment account. The reason for this is that they have received money from their investee.

- Jolley records the net income from Tige Co. as an increase to its Investment account.

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

b. Cash from Financing Activities
d. Bonds Payable
e. Net Income

Explanation:

Bonds are a form of long term debt and in the cashflow statement this goes to the Financing section. A retirement of bonds would reduce cash and this would come from the Financing activities.

Bonds Payable will also decrease because the bond that is being retired will reduce the number of bonds payable that the company has to pay off.

Finally the Net income will reduce as well to reflect the loss on bond retirement. The bonds were issued at a discount owing to interest rates being higher than the coupon rate in 2011 but on the day the bonds were retired they were selling at a premium with interest rates at 4%. The company paid more than they received and this loss will reduce the net income.
