Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

a. This is not a loss contingency. A loss contingency occurs when the value of an asset is reduced because of an occurence on the future. This isn't the case here as a separate sales transaction occured.

b. To account for it, we have to defer the revenue as a liability and then we will use the straight line basis to calculate the warranty expense.

2. Dr Cash $412,000

Cr Unearned revenue - extended warranties $ 412,000

(To record the sale of extended warranty)

Dr Unearned revenue - extended warranties. $57937.50

Cr. Revenue - Extended Warranties $57937.50

(To record revenue earned on extended warranty)

Swifty Corporation started the year with $45600 in its Common Stock account and a credit balance in Retained Earnings of $33400.
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Retained earnings balance =$54,700

Explanation:

Retained earnings is the proportion of profit made by a company which is not distributed as dividend but rather re-couped to be re-invested. A payment of dividend would reduce the balance of retained earnings while further profit retained increases it.

The balance of retained earnings at the end = opening balance + profit retained for the year - dividend paid for the year

= 33,400 + 36,500 - 15,200 = $54,700

Retained earnings balance =$54,700

Betty made a 20% profit on a residential lot she sold for $30,000. What did she pay for the property
Ludmilka [50]

Answer: $25000

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Betty made a 20% profit on a residential lot she sold for $30,000. Let the cost price of the property be represented by x.

Therefore, (100% + 20%) of x = $30000. This means that 120% of x = $30000.

120% × x = $30000

1.2x = $30000

x = $30000/1.2

x = $25000

Therefore, the amount paid for the property is $25000

Tom has a weekly allowance of $24, all of which he spends on pizza and movie rentals, whose prices are $6 per slice and $3 per r
Mariana [72]

Answer:

Tom can afford 6 rentals and his utility is at maximum level, when he consumes 8 slices of pizza and rents 8 movies per week.

Explanation:

For the given utility equation 24$= 6*slice of pizza + 3*rented movie, where pizza levels are 1,2,3 and 4, we have:

24 = 6*1 + 3* x

x = 6

24 = 6*2 + 3*x

x = 4

24 = 6*3 +3*x

x = 2

24 = 6*4 + 3*x

x= 0

His total utility is the sum of given utilities per week, which he has from slices of pizza eaten and movies rented. Therefore he should consume 8 slices of pizza and rent 8 movies per week.
