Answer:
- A. They are more liquid than others in their industry.
- C. They have sufficient quick assets to pay off short-term debt if needed.
Explanation:
The Acid-test and current ratios are used to measure the liquidity of a company with higher figures meaning more liquidity. XYZ Company has a both a higher acid-test and current ratio so they are more liquid than others in their industry.
The Acid-test and current ratio also enable one to find out if a company is able to pay off its current obligations/ liabilities using current assets. With the acid-test ratio being above one, XYZ is able to pay off short-term debt using quick assets.
Explanation:
Let’s explore one by one as proposed:
An oil cartel raises oil prices: all prices in the oil-related products will increase making it more expensive for companies to be able to afford employees. As the US economy is heavily based on oil import and consumption, the unemployment rate (let´s call it UR from now on) would increase. Countries that export more than import could benefit from this scenario.
The U.S. dollar gains value against foreign currencies: It would be more expensive to produce goods in the US as its currency becomes stronger. Hence companies could choose to produce overseas, increasing the UR. One of the factors that attract investments is a cheap currency, meaning that a company could operate there at lower costs than anywhere else.
American consumers expect higher income in the future: As fights about average salary would arise between employees and companies, igniting even sindicalization, its proper to think that the same as above could occur; companies could choose to produce overseas in countries less demanding of labor rights and income, such as China provinces (I would recommend for you to watch American Factory, a awarded Netflix documentary about that subject).
Brazil experiences economic growth and increases its demand for U.S. exports: as I said in the first alternative, a country that has increased or more expensive exports could benefit from that creating more jobs, in this case decreasing the UR. If Brazil demands more US products, more has to be produced by the country, which would mean more people employed in this attractive sector.
U.S. real estate values rise: to be honest, it only affects indirectly. As housing becomes more expensive, people have to work more to be able to afford housing. That would mean they seeking better-paying jobs or in the absence of those being homeless of at least unable to buy a home. We could argue that the UR would decrease because it becomes more expensive to afford housing and hence people would migrate more but that’s a long shot rationale.
Answer:
$9,950
Explanation:
The amount of equipment shall be determined through accounting equation which is given as follows:
Total Assets=Total liabilities+Total equity
Total assets=Current+Non current assets
Current assets+Non current assets=Total liabilities+Total equity
Non current assets=Cost of land+Cost of equipment-accumulated depreciation on equipment
Current assets+Cost of land+Cost of equipment-accumulated depreciation on equipment=Total liabilities+Total equity
Applying given data in the question to the above equation
$19,800+$15,000+Cost of equipment-$1,550=$44,750
$33,250+Cost of equipment=$44,750
Cost of equipment=$44,750-$33,250=$11,500
Amount of equipment on balance sheet=$11,500-$1,550=$9,950
The correct answer is; businesses and anyone who works and pays taxes.
Further Explanation:
Any one who is working in the United States has to pay income taxes. Businesses must also pay income taxes. Income taxes are due each year, generally from January 1st until April 20th.
People can do their own taxes or hire an accountant to do them. There are numerous websites where it is free to file taxes such as Turbotax and H&R Block. If a person has overpaid they are due a refund.
Both businesses and individuals can file for an extension on their taxes.
