Answer:

The correct answer is "43.875". A further explanation is provided below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Initial margin,

= $3,375

Maintenance margin,

= $2,500

Barrels of oil,

= 1,000

Now,

The loss on the position will be:

= 3375-2500

= 875 ($)

then,

⇒  1000 (P - 43) = 875

⇒  1000P-43000=875

On adding "43000" both sides, we get

⇒  1000P-43000+43000=875+43000

⇒                             1000P=43875

⇒                                    P=\frac{43875}{1000}

⇒                                        =43.875

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

A.

Debit Unearned Revenue $11,250

Credit Sales $11,250

Explanation:

B. It is an income for the company. Prepaid subscription is an expense for the company. Therefore, it is incorrect.

C. It is contradictory as the company already recorded the first quarter transaction. Therefore, Unearned revenue should be debit. So, it is also incorrect.

D. According to the revenue recognition, revenue is recognized when they are earned. Therefore, the company acquired the cash when the company received last year. So, it is incorrect.

E. Again, cash cannot be credit. Therefore, it is incorrect.

A is the correct answer. As, when the company received the payment, unearned revenue was credit. As the income is now recorded for the first quarter, $(45,000/4) = $11,250 of unearned revenue becomes earned. So, it is debit. Since it is a sale of a company, the sale becomes credit.

Why is it important to understand that the amount cash paid for taxes is different than the amount of income tax expense?
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer: To know the amount of tax the business should pay from reported profit which is different from it's actual tax bill

Explanation:

Income tax expense could be described as what is calculated that the company owes in taxes according to accounting rules. They are reported on the income statement.

While Income tax payable is described as the actual amount the company owes in taxes based on the rules of tax code. They appear on the balance sheet of the company accounting documents until the bills are cleared off or paid.

The reason for understanding the difference is to know the amount of tax the business should pay from reported profit which is different from it's actual tax bill
