Answer:

$230,400

Explanation:

The computation of the ending retained earning balance is shown below:

The ending balance of retained earning = Opening balance of retained earnings + net income - net loss - cash dividend paid

= $294000 - $27,600 - $36,000

= $230,400

We simply deduct the net income and the dividend from the beginning balance of retained earning so that the correct balance could come.

Answer:

Transaction                       Assets            Liabilities        Stockholders' Equity

Issue common stock           Increase               NE                      Increase

Issue preferred stock         Increase               NE                      Increase  Purchase treasury stock     Decrease             NE                       Decrease

Sale of treasury stock         Increase              NE                        Increase  Declare cash dividend            NE                   Increase                   NE

Pay cash dividend               Decrease            Decrease NE

100% stock dividend              NE                        NE                      NE

2-for-1 stock split                    NE                       NE                         NE

When shares are sold or issued, they increase the stockholders equity as people buy these shares. They also increase assets because cash comes into the company when the shares are sold. This is why the Issuing of preference and common stock as well as the sale of Treasury shares had the same effects.

When cash dividends are declared, they become a liability that is owed to equity holders.

When these dividends are then paid, they remove the liability but reduce assets as cash is used to pay the dividends.

100% stock dividend reduces retained earnings but increases equity so stockholders equity does not change.

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Toyoda and the subcontractors.

Explanation:

According to UCC Article 2, both the manufacturer and the subcontractor are liable for any damage caused by any defects.

This situation happened (and continues to happen) with the Takata airbag recall, where several car manufacturers and Takata were liable for defective airbags. Takata already filed for bankruptcy, so the car manufacturers deal with the recalls themselves. Both of them are liable for the defective airbags even though Takata manufactured them.
