Answer: Only the second sequence is arithmetic.
Work:
An arithmetic sequence is a sequence in which there is a common value added or subtracted between each term in the sequence.
The first option, -2, 4, -6, 8,... is not arithmetic because the terms switch back and forth between positive and negative signs meaning that there is no common value that can be added between each term.
The second option, -8, -6, -4, -2,... is arithmetic because there is a common difference between each term which is +2.
The third option, 2, 4, 8, 16,... is not arithmetic but is, in fact, geometric. There is no common value that is added or subtracted between each term.
On January 31, Jean Marie’s business receives a bill for that month’s utilities in the amount of $500. Jean sets it aside because she does not plan to pay the bill until its due date of February 15. What effect, if any, does this event have on the company’s accounting equation as of January 31?
Solution: The event that Jean does not plan to pay the bill until due date of February 15 must be recorded. Recording this event would increase the liabilities and decrease equity on January 31.
