Answer:
Income +/- inventory adjustment
2015: 138,000 - 23,000 = 115,000
2016: 254,000 + 61,000 = 315,000
2017: 168,000 + 17,000 = 185,000
Explanation:
<u>Inventory Identity:</u>
Beginning + Purchases = Ending + COGS
As the mistake is on the right side it compensates by the other component which is COGS
<u><em>When the inventory is overstated</em></u> this means COGS is understated.
We didn't record the cost of good sold thefore our gross profit is higher making the net income higher.
<u><em>When the inventory is understated</em></u> this means COGS is overstated.
We record more cost of goods sold thefore our gross profit is lower making the net income fewer as well.
Answer: D. The company reissues the treasury stock it holds.
Explanation:
Earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Net Income by the weighted average number of shares that a company has outstanding. If the company reissues treasury stock, this would increase the number of average stock outstanding thereby increasing the denominator of the EPS equation which would have the effect of reducing the Earnings per share.
For instance, if a company had net income of $50 and common equity outstanding of $40, the EPS would be;
= 50/40
= $1.25
If the company reissues treasury stock of $30, the EPS would change to;
= 50/ (40 +30)
= $0.71
Answer:
the European Central Bank (ECB) should engage in a contractionary monetary policy
Explanation:
A contractionary monetary policy takes place when a central bank (or the Fed) reduces the money supply in order to cool down the economy, lower inflation rate or like in this case, wants to offset expansionary fiscal policy.
The central bank initially raises the interest rates and starts selling more securities in order to absorb cash from the markets.
The answer is moral holiday. Taking a moral holiday means temporarily
loosening up and taking it easy, not
carrying the heaviness of the world on your shoulders, not being despairingly
depressed by depressing realities. In other words, there are specified times
when people are allowed to break norms. The best example is during Mardi gras.
