Answer: a. Liabilities increased by $1.0 million in 2018

Explanation:

In 2018, $9 million was used to settle the wage debt of 2017 and the remainder was used to settle the wages in 2018.

The money remaining in cash after the wage settlement was:

= 9,000,000 - 2,000,000 - 8,000,000

= -$1,000,000

This means that $1,000,000 of wages was not settled in 2018 which means that this would have to go to the Wages Payable account to signify that the company owes wages.

This account is a liability account so liabilities in 2018 would increase by $1,000,000.

Sidana [21]

Answer:

Zola's gross income is worked out under community property state;

Explanation:

community property state

Dividends ($1200/2)                               $600

Interest on certificate of deposit  ($900/2)     $450

Salary               ($80,000/2)                          $40,000

Gross income                                         $41,050

Under community law system, all the property is deemed to be community property and is held jointly by the spouses unless the property is acquired before marriage or inheritance or gift.

For federal tax purposes, each spouse is taxed one and half of the property belonging to community. Therefore Zola is taxed 50% for the incomes of her spouse as well including the interest on certificate of deposit.
