Answer:
If a company pays more in dividends than it generates in net income, its retained earnings as reported on the balance sheet will decline from the previous year's balance.
Explanation:
The dividend is shown while preparing the retained earning statement. So, it does not affect the net income.
The highly liquid marketable securities does not show a decline in the current assets
If the long term bonds are issued to purchase fixed assets it would show under the long term liabilities and the long term assets rather than the current assets and the current liabilities
Account receivable are reported in the current assets rather than the current liabilities
We know that
The ending balance of retained earning = Beginning balance of retained earnings + net income - dividend paid
If the dividend amount is more than the net income so the ending balance of retained earning will decline than its beginning year balance.
Answer:
The correct answer is d. $0.31 per client-visit; $24,766 per month.
Explanation:
The costs can be of fixed nature or a variable nature or of a mixed nature. A mixed costs contains a component of both fixed and variable costs. The high-low method is used to calculate the variable component per unit of a mixed cost. Th formula for high low method is:
Variable cost per unit = (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost) / (Highest activity level - Lowest activity level)
the highest activity is in June, 13400 client visits and the highest cost is also of this activity. The lowest activity is in August, 11207 client visits and the lowest cost belongs to this activity.
Variable cost per unit = (28920 - 28235) / (13400 - 11207)
Variable cost per unit = $0.31 rounded off to two decimal places
The fixed cost = Total cost - total variable cost
Taking 13400 activity,
The fixed component is = 28920 - (0.31 * 13400) = $24766 per month
Thus, the correct answer is d.
Answer:
The simple rate of return on the investment is closest to: C. 10.6%
Explanation:
In Hartong Corporation:
Increasing net income = Increase sales revenues - Cash operating expenses - Annual depreciation expense = $185,000 - $89,000 - $52,000 = $44,000
This is the net income from the equipment per year
Return on the investment (ROI) is calculated by using following formula:
ROI = (Net income/Cost of investment
)x 100%
Cost of investment = Cost of equipment = $416,000
ROI = ($44,000/$416,000) x 100% = 10.6%
