Answer:

Correct option is (c)

Explanation:

Organizations empty all temporary accounts at the end of the year and transfer the balance to retained earnings. Permanent accounts on the contrary, are not closed at the end of the year. They are carried forward to the next year.

As such, companies need to close accounting books at the end of the year as these temporary accounts are closed. Some temporary accounts are revenue and expenses.

Which two of the three financial statements would you find Net Income on?
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

C) Income Statement and Cash Flow Statement

Explanation:

The Income Statement shows a clear separate entry for the Net income which is calculated after all the deductions and additions.

Net Income is the first balance shown on the cash flow statement after which the calculations are carried out to find the flow of cash in and out of the company.

Net income is also shown in the Balance Sheet but not separately but together with retained earnings. It is added to the retained earnings and the amount is shown as a whole amount of retained earnings  or shown as a change in equity.

So best answer is C because the question asked is where would you find Net Income on?

Meaning separately. So it is separately present on Income Statement and Cash Flow Statement.

Otherwise it is present  on all three statements ( on balance sheet as part of retained earnings or equity).

A 4 percent increase in the price of beer will cause a 1 percent decline in the quantity of beer demanded. The demand for beer i
Tasya [4]

Answer:

The demand for beer is inelastic

Explanation:

Price Elasticity of Demand (PED) is the measure of responsiveness of the demand of a consumer to a product to a change in the price of the product. The formula is percentage change in quantity demanded divided by percentage change in price.

A PED of greater than 1 is elastic, meaning that the demand for a product is sensitive to the very small change in price.

A PED of less than 1 is said to be inelastic, which implies that there is no significant change in the quantity demanded when the price changes. In our example, the PED is inelastic because:

PED = \frac{\%\ change\ in\ demand}{\%\ change\ in\ price}\\ PED =\frac{1}{4} \\PED = 0.25

since 0.25 is less than 1, PED is inelastic

Finally, if the ratio of the percentage changes in both quantities demanded and price equals 1, it is said to be unit elastic. This means that there is a proportionate change in quantity demanded with a change in price.
