Answer:

b. $556,000.

Explanation:

Retained Earning is an account where all the earnings of the company accumulate and dividend is also paid from this account because it represents the amount the earning associated with the stockholders of the company.

December 31, 2018 Balance of Retained Earning = December 31, 2017 Balance of Retained Earning + Income for the year - Dividend Paid / Declared during the year.

$1,164,000 = $1,440,000  + $1,000,000 - Dividend Paid / Declared during the year.

$1,164,000 = $2,440,000 - Dividend Paid / Declared during the year.

Dividend Paid / Declared during the year = $2,440,000 - $1,164,000

Dividend Paid / Declared during the year = $1,276,000

Stock Dividend Paid - $500,000 + $220,000 = $720,000

Cash Dividend Paid = $1,276,000 - $720,000 = $556,000

defon
The best way for you to negotiate an increase in starting salary is to research similar jobs, note what their starting pay is, and provide the list to your boss. Most jobs will match what other people are paying because they need employees. The best way to lose your job right off the bat is to tell your boss that he is a cheapskate. I do not advise this.

Ivan

Answer:

The statement which is incorrect or not true is Option A.

Explanation:

Juanita owns 60% of stock in the corporation, so from the profit of $200,000 in the current year, she should report

= $200,000 × 60%

= $120,000

But the Corporation distributed $45,000 to Juanita. Therefore, she should report only $45,000 for this year not $120,000.

Therefore, the first option is incorrect.
