Answer: a. Increase in financing activities for the issuance and a decrease in financing activities for the dividends.

Explanation:

When using the Indirect method of the Cash Flow Statement, you will find 3 sections namely, the Operating Activities, Investing Activities and Financing Activities.

The Operating Activities deal with the normal business Transactions and related entries that keep the business running.

Investing Activities have to do with entries related to Non Current Assets as well as stocks and bonds in other companies.

The above relates to the Financing Section that handles the raising of Capital needed to run the business. They include long term debt and Equity.

When new Equity is announced it is a Cash inflow for the business meaning that there will be an INCREASE in Financing Activities.

Dividends have the effect of reducing Equity so it is a Cash Outflow. This means that there will be a DECREASE in Financing Activities as a result of the declared Dividends.

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer: 4%

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Pension plan assets were $1,200 million at the beginning of the year and $1,252 million at the end of the year and that at the end of the year, retiree benefits paid by the trustee were $28 million and cash invested in the pension fund was $32 million.

Based on the above scenario, the percentage rate of return on plan assets goes thus:

Opening balance of plan assets 1200

Add:- Actual return = 48

Add:- contributions = 32

Less :- retiree benefits = -28

Closing balance of plan assets = 1252

It should be noted that the actual return is the balancing figure which is calculated as:

= 1252 + 28 - 1200 - 32

= 48

The percentage rate of return on plan assets will now be:

= 48/1200

=0.04

= 4%
