Answer:

The common stock would decline by $2 million

The paid in capital in excess of par would decline by $15 million

The share capital would decline by $17 million

Explanation:

The balance in  common stock would decline by the par value of the 2 million shares reacquired in the year,that is 2 million*$1=$2,000,000

However balance in the paid-in share capital in excess of par would decline by $7.5 for each of the 2 million shares reacquired i.e 2 million *$7.5=$15,000,000

However the total reduction in  share capital of Horton Industries is the sum of the reduction in common stock of $2 million and the reduction in paid-in capital in excess of par of $15 million i,e $17 million

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

The sum of the debits will exceed the sum of the credits by $340. (None of the options given).

Explanation:

The right posting on the payment of $210 for the purchase office supplies would be;

Debit office supplies account $210

Credit Cash account $210

However since the debit to office supplies was $550 which is 340 (i.e $550 - $210) more than what the amount to have been posted is, it means that the sum of the debits will exceed the sum of the credits by $340.

alexgriva [62]

Answer: The correct answer is "D. Goods in Process and Factory Overhead."

Indirect labor: it is the labor consumed in the administrative areas of the company or that production staff that does not participate directly in the production of the good. As it is part of the cost that is indirectly incorporated into the product, it is considered factory overheads.
