Answer:

$256,200

Step by Step Explanation:

Original Investment 240,000

Share of net income

30%of 76,000 = 22,800

Less cash dividend

30%of 22,000 = (6,600)

Balance, December 31, 2016 $256,200

240,000+ 22,800= 262,800

262,800 - 6,600= 256,200

Therefore the amount that would be reported for the investment on American Corporation's financial statements at December 31, 2016 is $256,200

ANEK [815]

Answer:

Fixed costs= 1,100,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

During its most recent fiscal year, Dover, Inc. had total sales of $3,200,000. Contribution margin amounted to $1,500,000 and pretax income was $400,000.

We need to reverse engineer the income statement to determine the total fixed costs. We know that the pretax income is the difference between the total contribution margin and the fixed costs.

Pretax= total contribution margin - fixed costs

400,000= 1,500,000 - FC

Fixed costs= 1,500,000 - 400,000

Fixed costs= 1,100,000

zysi [14]

Answer: <em>(C.) $2,005</em>

Explanation:

Given :

Money Co. made a cash outflow of $194,000 for the $200,000 loan Money gave to Home Co.

∴

Income from the loan = Book value × Effective interest rate × No. of months of the year

= $194,000 × 0.124 × \frac{1}{2}

= $2,004.67

The demand curve will shift right.

(b.)The supply curve will shift right.

(c.)The demand curve will shift left

(d.)The supply curve will shift right.

(e.)The demand curve will shift left.

The demand curve is a graphical depiction of the connection between the cost of a commodity or service and the amount demanded over a specific time period. A common representation will have the price on the left-hand vertical axis and the amount needed on the right-hand horizontal axis. The law of demand states that, when all other factors are equal, the quantity demanded for a given good will decrease as its price rises as shown by the demand curve moving from left to right. Keep in mind that this formulation suggests that quantity is the dependent variable and price the independent variable. The independent variable often appears on the horizontal axis, or x-axis, although economics is an exception.
