Answer:

<em>The Options include:</em>

a. Disclosure only of the settlement

b. Only an accrual of the settlement

c. Neither a disclosure nor an accrual

<em>d. Both a disclosure and an accrual. is Correct</em>

Explanation:

Since about the 1st of February, the financial information of Ace Co., Year 2, have not been obtained and the exact amount of the final settlement is established.

The whole amount must be included in the financial information of Ace Co. on December 31, Year 1 and reported as a "subsequent event."

That is an acknowledged subsequent event because it contributes to litigation originating in year 1.

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

5%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Present value of the company, PV = $300,000

Current Profits, π₀ = $11,000

Interest rate, i = 9% = 0.09

Now,          

we know,            

PV = \pi_0(\frac{1+i}{1-g})

here,

g is the growth rate        

on rearranging, we get          

g =  i - \frac{(1+i)\pi_0}{PV}

on substituting the respective values, we get

g = 0.09 - \frac{(1+0.09)\times11,000}{300,000}

or  

g = 0.05

or

g = 0.05 × 100%

= 5%

amid [387]

Answer:

The correct answer is the third statement which says to maximize profits, the firm should produce less than 500 units.

Explanation:

The quantity of output produced is 500 units.

The marginal cost of producing 500 units is $1.50.

The minimum average variable cost is $1.

The price of the product is $1.25.  

The firm will be at equilibrium when the price is equal to marginal cost. To maximize profits firm should decrease output to the extent that marginal cost comes to $1.25. At that point, the firm will earn profits as average variable cost is lower than the price.
