Answer: (a) $300 million

(b) 52%

Explanation:

Total Government spending in 2010:

= education + welfare and Social Security +  health care +  defense + payments on debt + other

= $320 + $890 + $270 + $120 + $170 + $240

= $2,010 million

Total Government revenue in 2010:

= income tax  + sales tax +  corporate tax + social insurance

= $800 + $270 + $300 + $340

= $1,710 million

Hence, Total government spending is greater than the total government revenue.

So,

Littleland need to borrow =  $2,010 million - $1,710 million

                                           = $300 million

Littleland need to borrow $300 million to finance its government spending.

Total government debt in 2010:

= Total government debt in 2009 + Increase in debt in 2010

= $3.5 billion + $300 million

= $3.5 billion + $0.3 billion

= $3.8 billion

Littleland's debt to GDP ratio At the end of 2010,

=\frac{Debt\ at\ the\ end\ of\ 2010}{GDP\ in\ 2010}

=\frac{3.8 billion}{7.3 billion}

      = 0.52

      = 52%

If the cost of goods sold is more than the cost of goods manufactured, then
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

C. Finished Goods Inventory has decreased.

Explanation:

Cost of goods manufactured (COGM) increases when finished goods inventory is <em>produced</em>, while cost of goods sold (COGS) increases when finished goods inventory is <em>sold</em>. If COGS has been increasing faster than COGM has been increasing, the company has been selling more goods than it has been producing. Therefore, it must have sold goods from its surplus of finished goods inventory. Thus, finished goods inventory has decreased.

Gross P&E                   $730,000

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

C. Insurance expense will increase $2,250

Explanation:

On April 1 2016, the following journal entry will be recorded in respect of the premium paid on a one year insurance policy:

                                                         Debit                       Credit

Prepaid Insurance                          $3,000

Cash                                                                                  $3,000                                                                                                      

The year end given in this question is December 31, 2016 and the insurance premium is for one year and since the insurance premium is paid on April 1, 2016, therefore, only expense in respect of 9 months i.e. from April 1, 2016 to the December 31, 2016 will be recognised in this year. Remaining expense of three months will be recognised in the Year ended December 31,2017.

The following Journal entry will be recorded in respect of insurance expense in accounts on December 31, 2016.

                                                                   Debit             Credit

Insurance expense(3,000*9/12)               2,250

Prepaid Insurance                                                            2,250                    

So the answer will be C. Insurance expense will increase $2,250
