Answer:

The company should recognize a loss on sale of plant asset of $100,00.

Explanation:

The cost = $375,000

Accumulated Depreciation = $150,000

Therefore, book value = $225,000

This book value is compared with the sales value of $125,000.

There is a difference of $100,000 ($225,000 - $125,000).

Since the book value is greater than the sales value, it means that the plant asset was sold at a loss.

The cost is the amount at which the plant asset was purchased.  The accumulated depreciation represents the cost that has been expensed so far.  The sales value is the amount at which the plant asset was sold.

Answer:

Preemptive rights

Explanation:

Preemptive rights are a way of preventing the dilution of a shareholder's ownership in a corporation.  Preemptive rights are set by a contract clause that establishes that in case the corporation issues new stock, then a current shareholder must be given the right to buy additional shares before the stocks are sold to other investors.

The preemptive right usually gives the stockholder the right to buy new stock in the same proportion as his/her current stock ownership. For example, if an investor currently owns 2% of the company's stock, he/she will be able to buy 2% of every new set of stocks issued.

Answer:

1.

Dec 31    Rent expense                   $3450 Dr

                  Prepaid Rent                       $3450 Cr

2.

Oct 1     Prepaid Rent                        $13800 Dr

                  Cash                                       $13800 Cr

3.

Year end balances at 31 December:

Rent Expense = $3450

Prepaid Rent = $10350

Explanation:

Assumption: The year end for the business in on 31 December.

1.

The rent is paid in advance thus it is an asset. On 31 December the adjusting entry will be made under the accrual principle to match the current period's rent expense and record it in the period to which it belongs to. Thus we will credit the rent expense for 3 months i.e. October, November and December. We will credit the asset account that is Prepaid Rent.

2.

The prepayment of rent is creating an asset account in the title of prepaid rent. The entry would be to record the asset prepaid rent by the full amount of the rent prepaid and credit the other asset account through which the payment is being made.

3.

The adjusted year end balance for rent expense will be the rent expense paid for this period that is $1150 * 3 = 3450

The balance in the prepaid rent account after adjusting the rent expense will be,

Prepaid rent = 13800 - 3450 = $10350
