Answer:

Divestment

Explanation:

Divestment is the opposite to investment: consists in selling off, or giving up on some business operations, with the goal of increasing focus on a smaller subset of activities.

Divestment can also occur when a company is going through financial difficulties, and needs to sell off part of its operation in order to pay off debts, or obtain much needed cash.

Bayne Crop likely found out that the pork market was difficult, and decided to abandon it, focusing instead on other divisions in which the firm is likely to be more competitive.

Fernandez Company had an accounts receivable balance of​ $150,000 on December​ 31, Year 2 and​ $175,000 on December​ 31, Year 3.
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

The amount collected from customers on accounts receivable during year 3 is $535,000.

Explanation:

Cash received from accounts receivable = Opening balance of AR + Credit Sales - Bad debts written off - Closing balance of AR.

  • The opening balance for year 3 account receivables was 150000.
  • Credit Sales = 600000
  • Bad debts = 40000
  • Closing Balance = 175000

We can solve this question either by making a T account for accounts receivable or using the equation given above.

Cash = 150000 + 600000 - 40000 - 175000 = $535000

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

2. Is there land and buildings available

3. Are there any accumulated debt owed by the church

4. Collections or record of church document.

Explanation:

3. Debt or loan owed by the church. Loan forms part of liability in a balance sheet. Another question to be asked is whether the church is indebted to a bank or financial institution. This will determine whether or not to continue with the building project.

4. Record of church document. Does the church have any existing document with which to support the new building? This is pertinent as to begin or abandon the plan to build a new church.

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

24 million shares  ; $16 million

Explanation:

The computation of the weightage number of treasury shares are shown below:

             Number of shares       Price       Total

                   2                              $22         $44 million

                   1                               $28         $28 million

Total           3                                               $72 million

So, the weighted average number of shares would be

= $72 ÷ 3 = 24 million shares

Now the journal entry would be

Cash A/c Dr $64 million                  (2 million treasury shares × $32)

          To Paid in capital - share repurchase A/c $16 million

          To Treasury stock $48 million    (24 million treasury shares × $2)

(Being the treasury shares are sold)
