Answer:

Assets and equities both increase by $52,000. No change in liabilities.

Explanation:

The accounting equation gives the relationship between all the items that make up the balance sheet. These are the assets, liabilities and owner's equity.

assets = equity + liabilities

If the parcel of land that was originally purchased for $85,000 and sold for $137,000, the seller would recognize a

Gain on disposal = $137,000 -  $85,000

= $52,000

This gain on disposal is an additional income to the seller.

The effect on the accounting equation is that there is a net increase in asset of $52,000 as fixed asset reduces by $85,000 but another asset in form of cash or accounts receivable amounting to $137,000 is recognized. No change happens to the sellers liability.

However, the seller's equity increases as the gain on disposal is an income which would be posted at the end of the year into retained earnings.

In summary, assets and equities both increase by $52,000.

g which is debt-free and finances only with equity from retained earnings. You were given the following information: rRF = 3.50%
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer: 7.46%

Explanation:

The CAPITAL ASSET PRICING MODEL is a very useful tool for calculating a firm's Cost of Equity.

The Formula is,

Rc = Rrf + b(Rpm)

Where,

Rc is the Cost of Equity

Rpf is the Risk risk free rate

b is beta

Rpm is the risk premium

Plugging in the digits we have,

Rc = 0.0350 + 0.88(0.045)

= 0.0746

The firm's cost of equity from retained earnings based on the CAPM is therefore 7.46%

You have made an important presentation to several Japanese executives regarding a proposed partnership between your American co
Levart [38]

Answer:

Correct option is E.

A lack of communication

Explanation:

It is an instance of two societies speaking with one another. Add to social contrast, there are even language contrasts. To think at an exceptionally fundamental level, the Japanese here are most likely confronting language as well as unfit to fathom American business culture.  

Despite the fact that these things are likely while managing in global exchange, the most ideal approach to improve correspondence is to see each other's way of life and modify the language and correspondence tone in like manner. Along these lines, there is absence of compelling correspondence between the American and the Japanese.

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

It is decrease in accounts receivable (D)

Explanation:

An Increase in Inventory : the effect of this transaction will reduce the cash position of the company because more cash is being tied down as inventory at a cost.

A decrease in accounts payable : Here, more cash is being paid to off-set liability owed to suppliers and this will reduce company's cash position.

Preferred dividends declared and paid : This is an outflow of cash paid to equity investors as a return on their investment which will impact negatively on the company cash position.

Decrease in accounts receivable : This is an inflow of cash from the settlement of trade receivable owed by our customers which will impact positively on our cash position.
