Answer:

C. Retained earnings increased $28,200 during 2018.

Explanation:

Total liabilities = Total assets - Total equities

= $217,000 - $123,000

= $94,000

Common stock as at December 31, 2018 = Total equity - Total retained earnings

= $123,000 - $83,000

= $40,000

Retained earnings at year end =

Opening retained earnings + net income - dividend paid

$83,000 = Opening retained earnings + $33,900 - $5,700

$83,000 = Opening retained earnings + $28,200

Opening retained earnings = $54,800

Change in retained earnings = Closing retained earnings - Opening retainer earnings

= $83,000 - $54,800

= $28,200

Therefore, Option 'C' is the correct option.

Frictional

) establishing government employment agencies to connect unemployed workers to job vacancies 

Explanation:

The options needed to answer the last question are :

a) extending the number of weeks for which unemployed workers are eligible for unemployment insurance benefits from the government 

b) establishing government employment agencies to connect unemployed workers to job vacancies 

c) offering recipients of unemployment insurance benefits a cash bonus if they find a new job within a specified number of weeks

The law of supply states that the higher the price, the higher the quantity supplied and the lower the price, the lower the quantity supplied.

It follows that if the world price of cotton falls, the quantity supplied would fall too as firms would reduce their production of cotton. If firms reduce their production of cotton, they would need less labour and the demand for Labour would fall.

In the industry that makes use of cotton has an input, the fall in world price would make cotton cheaper. The firm would increase the quantity demanded for and as a result production would increase. Firms would need more labour as a result of the increase in production. Therefore, the demand for Labour would increase.

Frictional unemployment is unemployment that results as a result of labour moving from one job to another

Establishing government employment agencies to connect unemployed workers to job vacancies would ease the job search of labour and reduce unemployment.

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer: The answer is Discontinued Operation.

Explanation: Discontinued Operation in financial accounting is a term that is used to refer to part(s) of a company’s line of businesses or products that have been sold or shut down.

Discontinued operations are reported on the income statement, but separately from continuing operations.

The decision to list discontinued operations separately on the income statement is useful because it shows investors where the profits are coming from and which operations have ceased to function, especially useful when companies are about to merge.
