Answer:
The answer is $215,000
Explanation:
Cost of goods sold equal:
Opening/beginning inventory plus purchases minus closing/ending inventory
To find beginning inventory at January 1, 2018, lets rearrange the formula:
Cost of goods sold minus plus purchases plus closing/ending inventory.
Cost of sales is $470,000
Purchases is $415,000
Ending inventory is $160,000
Therefore, beginning inventory at January 1, 2018 is
$470,000 - $415,000 + $160,000
=$215,000
Answer:
The common stockholders will receive a dividend of $100000 in 2015
Explanation:
The preferred stock is non cumulative which means that in case it does not pay dividends in a certain year, the dividends will no be accumulated and the company will not be obliged to pay these dividends in later year.
The per share preferred stock dividend for the company is = 100 * 0.06 = $6
The total dividends on preferred stock per year = 6 * 25000 = $150000
The common stockholders are paid dividends after the preferred stockholders are paid.
Thus, for 2015 the common stockholders will receive a dividend of,
Common stock dividend = 250000 - 150000 = $100000
Answer:
Accept Project A and reject Project B
Explanation:
See the images to get the answer.
Decision: Required rate of return = 16% = Cost of capital.
If Internal rate of return (IRR) > the cost of capital = Accept the project.
If Internal rate of return (IRR) < the cost of capital = Reject the project.
From the basis of the formula, we can accept the project A because the IRR of Project A (19%) is higher than the cost of capital (16%). On the other hand, we can reject the project B because the IRR of Project B (14%) is smaller than the cost of capital (14%).
Answer:
Annual Depreciation expense = $15695.7692 rounded off to $15695.77
Explanation:
We first need to calculate the cost of the equipment. The cost at which an equipment or asset should be recorded should include all the costs incurred to bring the asset into the place and condition necessary for its use as intended by the management. Thus the cost of the equipment will be,
Cost = 165891 + 42172
Cost = $208063
Now we can calculate the depreciation expense per year based on the straight line depreciation method using the following formula,
Annual Depreciation expense = (Cost - Salvage Value) / Estimated useful life
Annual Depreciation expense = (208063 - 4018) / 13
Annual Depreciation expense = $15695.7692 rounded off to $15695.77
