Answer: above-average profits
Explanation: In the given case, while making the change in the operations the managements anticipated an increase in profit by 125 max. These types of anticipations are done by the managers on the basis of past records or the current existing trends.
Usually under such situations the management tries to take average of the anticipated figures so that expectations of take holders would not get high too much.
Hence the increase of 19% depicts that the profit increased by more than the average level as anticipated by the managers.
A fair value option is the alternative for a business to record its financial instruments at the fair values. Liabilities are company's financial debts or obligations that arise in the course of business operations. They may be long term or short term. In this case, if the fair value of the liability decreases, the firm should respond by crediting the unrealized Holding Gain/loss in the income account.
Answer:
c) Unearned Revenue $ 500, Revenue $ 500
Explanation:
When the cash was received on August 01, no accounting services were provided so the entry would have been:
Cash Debit $ 1,200
Unearned revenue Credit $ 1,200
Unearned Revenue is a liability account
On December 31, a recognition needs to be made for the services revenue earned and hence the amount for 5 months amounting is debited to unearned revenue and revenue credited with $ 500.
