Answer:

B. an addition to an asset of $5,000 and an unrealized gain of $5,000 in the stockholders

Explanation:

There is a cost of $245,000 and the value that can be received today in case the trading securities are sold = $250,000

Thus, there can be gain in case if it is sold of $5,000.

Since it is not sold right now, and is current in nature because it is valued at fair price and not at historical cost, the gain is unrealized in nature.

Thus, this increase in value would increase the value of assets in the books, and that the gain shall be recorded as other income as unrealized gains from securities.

If the beginning balance of the Accumulated Depreciation—Equipment account is $10,000 and an adjusting journal entry is recorded
kari74 [83]

Answer:

B. $12,500

Explanation:

Accumulated depreciation is the cumulative depreciation of an asset up to a single point or current point in its life.

Each period, the depreciation expense recorded in that period is added to the beginning accumulated depreciation balance. Therefore when there's an entry of depreciation of an equipment, the current value is added to the previous total of the old entry. Therefore the balance of the the depreciation after current entry is the beginning balance of the depreciation plus the balance entered into the record.

In this case, the beginning balance was $10,000 and the entry was $2,500

Hence, balance of accumulated depreciation account after entry is 10000 + 2500 = $12,500

artcher [175]

The eco-nomy was in long-run equilibrium when aggre-gate demand increased. At this point in time, the expec-ted inflation has start-ed to adjust to the new high-er actual inflation rate. Accor-ding to the (Friedman) natural rate the-ory, this means the unemploy-ment rate in the economy must curr-ently be <u><em>below the natu-ral rate</em></u>.

Milton Friedman defi-ned the natural rate of unemploy-ment as the level of unemployment that result-ed from real economic forces, the long-run level of whi-ch could not be altered by monet-ary policy. Accor-ding to the general equili-brium model of economics, natural unemploy-ment is equal to the level of unemploy-ment of a labor mark-et at perfect equilibrium.

In the for-profit business world, decisions to spend money must pass a "cost versus benefit" test, but for nonprofit arts organi
Zinaida [17]

The cost versus benefit test will not act as a good factor to measure tangible achievement.      

Explanation:

Most of the Non-profit organization has a focus on welfare activities. The benefits can be influenced only by the subjective fulfillment of benefits. Executive members of all trusts are not able to calculate the benefits attained through welfare operations. Such a parameter system of identifying the beneficiaries' prospects of end-users is known as Intangible achievement.

The tangible achievement always lies in the status of invisible movements of each welfare operations. But each step of inducing the effects of cost versus benefit test does not suit to provide the effective to identify the tangible achievements.
