Decrease assets, decrease liabilities. Accounts payable are what the business owes (liabilities). By paying off accounts payable, the liabilities are decreasing (they owe less) and the assets are also decreasing (because they use assets/cash to pay off the liabilities, so they have less now).
Hope that helps
Answer:
$29,050
Explanation:
The computation of the residual income is shown below:
Residual income = Net operating income - Minimum required income
= $83,000 - $53,950
= $29,050
Here
Minimum required income = Average operating assets × Minimum required rate of return
= $415,000 × 13%
= $53,950
This should be the answer and the options provided are wrong
Answer:
The cash balance on November 30 amounts to $155,700
Explanation:
Cash balance on November 30 = Beginning balance + Collection of cash from October sales + Collection of cash from November sales - Payments for October Purchases - Payments for November Purchases
where
Beginning balance is $13,700
Collection of cash from October sales = October Sales × % amount collected
= $240,000 × 70%
= $168,000
Collection of cash from November sales = November Sales × % amount collected
= $240,000 × 1.20 × 25%
= $72,000
Payments for October Purchases = October Purchases × % amount paid
= $70,000 × 65%
= $45,500
Payments for November Purchases = November Purchases × % amount paid
= $150,000 × 35%
= $52,500
Putting the values in the above formula
Cash balance on November 30 = $13,700 + $168,000 + $72,000 - $45,500 - $52,500
= $155,700
Answer:
$22,500
Explanation:
Chance of getting low quality car = 50%
Chance of getting high quality car = 50%
Cost of low quality car = $15,000
Cost of high quality car = $30,000
So, Price of the car = 50% of lower quality + 50% of higher quality
= (50% × $15,000) + (50% ×30,000)
= $7,500 + $15,000
= $22,500
Hence, price of the used car will be $22,500.
