Answer:
$20,000
Explanation:
The computation of the taxable gain is shown below:
The corporate gain is
= $40,000 - $20,000
= $20,000
Now the stock basis is increased i.e.
= $20,000 + $20,000
= $40.000
Now the stock basis decreased to zero i.e.
= $40,000 - $40,000
= $0
So, here the taxable gain is of $20,000
Answer:
a. The company must have had net income equal to zero in 2009.
Explanation:
If on its 2008 balance sheet, Sherman Books showed a balance of retained earnings equal to $510 million, and on its 2009 balance sheet, the balance of retained earnings was also equal to $510 million; then what is true is that the company must have had net income equal to zero in 2009.
Retained earnings is the profit amount or net income left over and taken back into the business after it has paid out dividends to its shareholders.
However it is unlikely that the company will pay out the entire amount it earns in a particular year but a percentage of earnings.
In the case of Sherman, it is unlikely that the company made a profit of $200 million and paid out every bit as dividends to shareholders but what is most likely is that there was no profit made for retention in 2009
Answer: $0.79.
Explanation:
Given that,
Tendered bill = $5
Bill charged = $4.21
Therefore,
The change due is calculated by subtracting bill charged from tendered bill.
Change due = Tendered bill - Bill charged
= $5 - $4.21
= $0.79
Hence, change in dollars would be $0.79.
Answer:
40%
Explanation:
Total assets. $240,000
Less total liabilities ($130,000)
$110,000
Less common stock ($24,000)
Retained earnings at end $86,0000
Less Retained earnings at the beginning ($29,000)
Addition to retained earnings $57,000
Add dividends $6,400
Net profit earned $63,400
Add expenses $94,000
Revenue. $157,400
Therefore, company's net profit margin expressed as a percentage = Net profit earned / Revenue
= (63,400/157,400) × 100
= 40%
Answer:
A. aggregate demand intersects short-run aggregate supply
Explanation:
Short run occurs when the amount a firm wishes to supply is equal to the amount demanded from the consumers. It is the area on the graph where the aggregate demand curve intersect with the short run supply curve.
Or, simply put, when the aggregate output supplied is equal to the aggregate output demanded. The equilibrium is made up of equilibrium prices and quantity.
