STatiana [176]

Explanation:

since it's given that

Acquiring value of the vacant lot =$115,000

Sale value of the vacant lot in cash=$298,000

1. Assets = increase = $183,000

2. Liabilities = no change = $0

3. Stockholder Equity = Increased= $183,000

Reil [10]

Answer:

Option C is the right answer

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to state what happens in a transaction given some level of information.

Firstly, we need to understand what a certificate of deposit is. A certificate of deposit referred to as CD is a kind of bank product that stipulates that a customer has agreed to leave a certain amount of money in the bank for a particular period of time untouched at an interest rate higher than normal and otherwise tagged as premium.

Now, it must be stated that it was after he was issued that there was a drop in prices. Whatever happens during the drop will not affect him and would be the bank’s concerns simply because his own rate had been predetermined and nothing could change this as he had been issued a contract to that affect.

Klingon Cruisers, Inc., purchased new cloaking machinery five years ago for $20 million. The machinery can be sold to the Romula

muminat

Answer:

1) Book Value= $16,464,000

2) Market Value = $19,080,000

Explanation:

The first question is to determine the book value of Klingon's assets today. Book value is the carrying value of the business in its balance sheet.

Book Value = Net working Capital + Current Liabilities + Net Fixed Assets

Net working Capital= $226,000

Current Liabilities= $700,000

Net Fixed Assets= $15,500,000

Book Value = $226,000+ $700,000+$15,500,000= $16,464,000

2) Calculate the market value

The formula for market value = How much the machinery was sold to Romulans today+ today's value of the current assets if they are liquidated

The market value of assets is a function of the current market price they can be sold for and received on the day of the valuation

Market Value= $18,000,000 + $1,080,000= $19,080,000
