Answer:

$46,500

Explanation:

Accounting equation is stated as :

Assets = Equity + Liabilities

therefore,

Equity = Assets - Liabilities

Equity at Beginning of the Period :

Equity = Assets - Liabilities

           = $78,000 - $42,000

           = $36,000

Equity at end of the Period

Closing Equity Balance = Opening Balance + Net Income - Dividends

                                       = $36,000 + $15,500 - $5,000

                                       = $46,500

Answer:

The letter D. Assumption of the risk.

Explanation:

I believe the Best-of-the-Rest company is reliable for the quality of the products it produces and resells. Trading food is very dangerous because it needs a very close surveillance by the owner and supervision. A part of a mouse ear at the bottom of the can may have been overlooked in the packaging. Alternatively, it may have been posed by someone with bad intentions to undermine the company's credibility. Everything is possible.
