Answer:

C. $17.25 million

Explanation:

In case of an acquisition, the assets are valued at their fair value and we will also include all unrecorded liabilities. Goodwill will be the excess payment over the net assets of the company. Excess fair value of land means that assets would increase by that amount to arrive at their fair value. Also, We have to include unrecorded liabilities in the total liabilities

Net Assets = Fair value of assets - Total liabilities

Or, Net Assets = (Book value of assets + Excess Fair value of land) - (Book value of liabilities + unrecorded liabilities)

Or, Net Assets = ($261 million + $3 million) - ($172.50 million + $6.75 million) = $84.75 million

Amount paid to acquire = $102 million

Goodwill = $102 million - $84.75 million = $17.25 million

Poodle = $222,420

Explanation:

Annual salary allowance to Poodle of $146,160.

Interest of 6% on each partner's capital balance on January 1.

Any remaining net income divided to Conyers and Poodle, 1:2.

net income $261,000

distribution of interests:

  • Conyers = $54,000 x 6% = $3,240
  • Poodle = $93,000 x 6% = $5,580

drawings (annual salary allowance):

  • Poodle = $146,160

remaining income = $261,000 - $146,160 - $3,240 - $5,580 = $106,020

  • Conyers (1/3) = $35,340
  • Poodle (2/3) = $70,680

total distributed:

  • Conyers = $3,240 + $35,340 = $38,580
  • Poodle = $5.580 + $146,160 + $70,680 = $222,420

An increase in your income causes you to buy more hamburgers.

Option "A" is correct because the increase in income exhibits an increase in purchasing power. Moreover, there is a positive relationship between the income the demand for normal goods which means if the income rises, then the demand rises.

Ne4ueva [31]

So the thing here is that n workers produce n units of output, and so the total product of labor equals the number of workers: q = L

MP_{L} will differ by labor because the extra workers creates one more units of output, MP_{L}= ∆q/∆L= 1

AP_{L} will differ by how much labour was put into it:divide both sides of the production function, AP_{L}= q/L= 1

Hope this helps, now you know the answer and how to do it. HAVE A BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY! As well as a great rest of Black History Month! :-)
