Answer:

A) adjust the market price of a stock so it falls within a preferred trading range

Explanation:

A stock split is when a company increases the number of its shares outstanding.

for example if a company has 6 million shares outstanding at a price of $10, earning per share is $1 and dividend per share is $2. this company announces a 2 for 1 split :

the number of outstanding shares becomes 2 x 6 million = 12 million

stock price becomes = $10 / 2 =$5

earning per share = $1 / 2 = $0.50

dividend per share = $2 / 2 = $1

After a stock split, the price of the shares falls. so it can be used to adjust the market price of a stock so it falls within a preferred trading range.

A stock split doesn't affect the balances in shareholders equity account.

Stock split doesn't affect the cash holdings of the firm.

Market capitalisation doesn't change after a split, so stock value doesn't change.

A journal entry for a​ $210 payment to purchase office supplies was erroneously recorded as a debit to Office Supplies for​ $550
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

The sum of the debits will exceed the sum of the credits by $340. (None of the options given).

Explanation:

The right posting on the payment of $210 for the purchase office supplies would be;

Debit office supplies account $210

Credit Cash account $210

However since the debit to office supplies was $550 which is 340 (i.e $550 - $210) more than what the amount to have been posted is, it means that the sum of the debits will exceed the sum of the credits by $340.
