Answer:
$25,400
Explanation:
Equity which represents the amount owed to the owners of the business includes retained earnings (which is the accumulation of the net income/loss over the years less dividends paid) and common shares.
The movement in the retained earnings balance may be expressed as
Opening balance + net income - cash dividend paid = closing retained earnings balance
Cash dividend declared - Cash dividend paid = Cash dividend payable
$49,000 - Cash dividend paid = $23,600
Cash dividend paid = $49,000 - $23,600
= $25,400
Answer:
(a) 8 times
(b) 45.6 days
Explanation:
Given that,
Cost of goods sold = $500,000
Average inventory = $62,500
Assume 365 days a year.
(a) Inventory turnover ratio:
= Cost of goods sold ÷ Average inventory
= $500,000 ÷ $62,500
= 8 times
(b) Number of days' sales in inventory days:
= 365 days ÷ Inventory turnover ratio
= 365 days ÷ 8
= 45.6 days
