Answer:

4. Amounts owed to suppliers

Explanation:

We know that

Balance sheet comprises of assets, liabilities and the stockholder equity

The assets could be classified into current asset, fixed asset, and the intangible assets

While the liabilities are also classified into current liabilities and the long term liabilities

The account receivable, equipment, supplies have come on the asset side of the balance sheet whereas the account payable or amount owed to suppliers have come on the liabilities side of the balance sheet

So, the most appropriate option is 4.

Molteni Motors Inc. recently reported $3.5 million of net income. Its EBIT was $5.25 million, and its tax rate was 30%. What was

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

$250,000

Explanation:

The computation of the interest expense is shown below:

Given that

Net Income = $3,500,000

Tax rate = 30%

EBIT = $5,250,000

As we know that

EBT = EBIT - Interest Expense

So,

Interest expense = EBIT - EBT

where,

EBT = Net Income ÷ (1 -Taxes)

= $3,500,000 ÷ ( 1 - 30%)

= $5,000,000

And, the EBIT is $5,250,000

So, the interest expense is

= $5,250,000 - $5,000,000

= $250,000

We simply applied the above formula

Suppose the production of cotton causes substantial environmental damage because the pesticides used by cotton farmers often mak

Kipish [7]

Answer: C. inefficiently low; inefficiently high

Explanation:

If the cotton farmers are not made to pay for the damage that their pesticides cost then they will maintain production at a relatively high level because their input costs will be relatively low. As a result of this high level of production, the price of the goods will be relatively low as well. The point at which both market equilibrium quantity and price are at in this scenario are considered inefficient because they are not taking into account, the true cost of production being the effects of the pesticides being used.

However, if they are made to pay for this negative externality that they are the cause of, it will increase their production cost and force them to reduce production to keep these costs low. As they reduce production, the market price will increase as supply is less.

Art Company issued 6%, 5 year bonds, with par value of $1,600,000, paying semiannual interest for $1,470,226. The annual market

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The correct answer is option (B).

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Bond carrying value = $1,470,226

Rate of interest = 8%

Rate of interest (Semiannual ) = 4%

So, we can calculate the the bond interest expense on the first interest payment by using following formula:

The bond interest expense = Bond carrying value × rate of interest (semiannual)

By putting the value we get

= $1,470,226 × 4%

= $58,809
