A company’s prepaid expenses are $15,000 at the beginning of the year and $8,000 at the end of the year. What adjustment to net
Elis [28]

Answer:

The $7,000 balance of prepaid expenses should be added in the net income.

Explanation:

If the indirect method of cash flow statement is followed, then the decrease in current assets would increase the cash balance as it is an inflow of cash whereas the increase in current assets would decrease the cash balance as it is an outflow of cash.  

But in the current liabilities, the conditions are opposite which means a decrease in current liabilities would decrease the cash balance whereas the increase in current liabilities would increase the cash balance.

In the question, it is given that the opening balance of the prepaid expenses is $15,000 and the ending balance is $8,000 which show decrements of $7,000 which will add to the net income.

Hence, the $7,000 balance of prepaid expenses should be added in the net income.

geniusboy [140]
A. Demand will go up. 

The demand curve is inverse relationship between quantity demanded and the price of the product. Therefore, as the price of a product goes down, the demand will go up. This makes sense because, given a stable income, you can buy more of a product if the price is less, and people will want more of a product until they maximize their utility.
