Answer:
$48,800
Explanation:
Ratio = 2:3
Total investment:
= Benson capital + Orton capital + Ramsey capital
= $60,000 + $40,000 + $20,000
= $120,000
Total Equity of Ramsey:
= 40% of Total investment
= 0.4 × $120,000
= $48,000
Old partners contribution:
= Equity of Ramsey - Ramsey capital
= $48,000 - $20,000
= $28,000
Benson’s capital balance after admitting Ramsey:
= Benson’s capital - Old partners contribution(2 ÷ 5)
= $60,000 - [$28,000 × (2 ÷ 5)]
= $60,000 - $11,200
= $48,800
Answer:
a. Income Tax Expense (Dr.) $298,000
Deferred Tax (Dr.) $30,000
Income Tax Payable (Cr.) $328,000
Explanation:
b. Income Tax expense (Dr.) $30,000
Allowance to reduce deferred tax value to NRV (Cr.) $30,000
Income tax payable is calculated based on tax rate of 40%.
$820,000 * 40% = $382,000
This is tough to answer in 3-5 sentences, and tends to also be a heavy identifier of your possible political leanings. You'll have to apologize if some of mine leak out in the response, but this is a question we debate hotly more frequently than every 4 years.
In general, international trade can help increase the GDP and overall profits for US-based corporations. However, if all we do is export, and we don't import, other countries don't look favorably upon that and may heavily tax our goods to counter this.
I believe we do need to be thoughtful about the amounts and kinds of international trade that we engage in. For example, farming is always a hotly debated issue for international trade, in part because farmers in other countries with a dramatically lower cost of living OR farmers in countries with a favorable currency rate (exchange from their currency to our dollars gives them an advantage) can undercut our farmers here in the US, many of whom are already struggling.
There are also those who are worried that when we import produce from countries that have not outlawed pesticides we know are carcinogenic, for instance, this creates not only a disadvantage for US farmers, but also for consumers who may be concerned about health issues.
As another example of this, many countries outlawed import of US beef during the Mad Cow Epidemic. We in turn also placed bans on importing beef from the UK.
These are examples of why it's important to be thoughtful about trade, but there are certainly many others, including decline in production jobs within the US that have left cities like Detroit a ghost town (this was formerly the hub of our automotive industry production).
Answer:
A debit to Finished-Goods Inventory
Explanation:
While recording this transaction, the journal entry is as follows
Finished goods inventory $45,000
To work in process inventory $45,000
(Being the completed units are recorded)
For recording this, we debited the finished goods inventory and credited the work in process inventory so that the correct posting could be done and the same is shown above
