Answer:

A. Debit retained earnings for $18 million.

Explanation:

Before recording the journal entry, first we have to determine the dividend shares which are shown below:

= Number of shares × par value of share × common stock dividend percentage

= 30 million shares × $1 × 1%

= 0.30 million shares

Now the journal entry would be

Retained earnings Dr $18 million       (0.30 million shares × $60)

    To Common Stock $0.30 million       (0.30 million shares × $1

    To  Additional Paid-in Capital in excess of par - Common Stock $17.7 million

(Being the dividend is declared and the remaining balance is credited to the additional paid-in capital account)

Answer:

Cookie & Coffee Creations Inc.

a) Current Portion of Note Payable:

= $4,000

b) Long-term Portion of Note Payable:

= $6,000

Explanation:

Data and Calculations:

Date of Note Payable = November 1, 2017

Period = 3 years

Interest rate = 5%

Terms of payment:

Fixed principal payments = $2,000

Payment dates = May 1 and November 1

Each year's principal repayment = $4,000 ($2,000 x 2)

From November 1, 2017 to October 31, 2018 = $4,000

At October 31, 2018, Payment made = $2,000 on May 1

Remaining Note payable = $10,000 ($12,000 - $2,000)

Current Portion = $4,000 ($2,000 x 2)

Long-term Portion = $6,000

b) The current portion of $4,000 will be payable on November 1, 2018 and May 1, 2019.  The current portion represents the short-term portion of the note payable, which is the portion that will be settled within a 12-months' period.  Since Cookie & Coffee Creations Inc. had already paid $2,000 on May 1, 2018, the long-term portion will only remain $6,000 ($12,000 - $2,000 - $4,000), which is the difference between the total note payable, the portion paid on May 1, 2018, and the current portion of $4,000 that will be payable within one year.

On June 1, Aaron Company purchased equipment at a cost of $120,000 that has a depreciable cost of $90,000 and an estimated usefu
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

It is $30,000(C)

Explanation:

Depreciable cost = $90,000

Using straight-line method,

Annual depreciation = $90,000/3

                                  = $30,000.

Hence, depreciation expense at the final year of service is $30,000

We cannot make use of entire cost of equipment of $120,000 because it seemed the company wanted to sell its scrap value for  $30,000. Hence, this has been used to reduced it cost to $90,000 which is a depreciable cost .
