Answer:

the Opening retained earning balance is $413,640

Explanation:

The computation of the retained earnings have been on December 31, 2016 is shown below:

As we know that

Ending retained earning balance = Opening retained earning balance + net income - dividend paid

$490,953 = Opening retained earning balance + $135,075 - $57,762

$490,953 = Opening retained earning balance + $77,313

So, the Opening retained earning balance is $413,640

qaws [65]

Answer:

Inflation in 2012:

=\frac{CPI\ 2013 - CPI\ 2012}{CPI\ 2012}

=\frac{110 - 100}{100}

= 10%

Inflation in 2013:

=\frac{CPI\ 2014 - CPI\ 2013}{CPI\ 2013}

=\frac{120 - 110}{110}

= 9.09%

Inflation in 2014:

=\frac{CPI\ 2015 - CPI\ 2014}{CPI\ 2014}

=\frac{126 - 120}{120}

= 5%

Real rate of interest = Nominal - inflation

Given that,

Nominal rate = 8%

Therefore,

Real interest rate is as follows:

2012:

= 8% - 10%

= -2%

2013:

= 8% - 9.09%

= -1.09%

2014:

= 8% - 5%

= 3%

$6000 at 8% grows to:

= 1000 × 1.08

= $6,480 in one year

which is invested again to grow to $6,998.4 in two years

which is invested again to grow to $7,558.272 in three years

so,

Total gain:

=\frac{7,558.272-6,000}{6000}\times100

= 25.9712%

The price level increases in three years by:

=\frac{CPI\ 2015 - CPI\ 2012}{CPI\ 2012}\times 100

=\frac{126 - 100}{100}\times 100

= 26%

So,

Total real rate of return:

= Total gain - Percentage increase in prices

= 25.9712 - 26

= -0.0288%

California Adventures issues 5,000 shares of 8%, $100 par value preferred stock at the beginning of 2020. All remaining shares a
never [62]

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

Since the preferred stock is not cumulative only the current years' dividend is payable on these stocks.

Preferred stock dividend = (5000 * 100) * 0.08 = $40,000

Of the declared dividend of $100,000,

Preferred Dividend = $40,000

Ordinary share dividend = $60,000

If the shares were cumulative, the prior year dividends would also be payable form the declared dividends bringing the total preferred dividend to $80,000.

Hope that helps.
