Inessa [10]

Answer:

b. $556,000.

Explanation:

Retained Earning is an account where all the earnings of the company accumulate and dividend is also paid from this account because it represents the amount the earning associated with the stockholders of the company.

December 31, 2018 Balance of Retained Earning = December 31, 2017 Balance of Retained Earning + Income for the year - Dividend Paid / Declared during the year.

$1,164,000 = $1,440,000 + $1,000,000 - Dividend Paid / Declared during the year.

$1,164,000 = $2,440,000 - Dividend Paid / Declared during the year.

Dividend Paid / Declared during the year = $2,440,000 - $1,164,000

Dividend Paid / Declared during the year = $1,276,000

Stock Dividend Paid - $500,000 + $220,000 = $720,000

Cash Dividend Paid = $1,276,000 - $720,000 = $556,000

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

$45,000

Explanation:

In this case the market value is $200,000 but the policy limit is only $120,000, with a coinsurance of 80%.

(stop limit / value) x loss = ($120,000 / $160,000*) x $60,000 = 0.75 x $60,000 = $45,000

*the $160,000 value is determined by multiplying the fair market value of the property times the coinsurance = $200,000 x 80% = $160,000
