Answer:

the amount that should reported as the estimated liability is $20,250

Explanation:

The computation of the amount that should reported as the estimated liability is as follows:

= Total sales × total percentage - total actual warranty expenditure

= $500,000 × 6% - $9,750

= $30,000 - $9,750

= $20,250

Hence, the amount that should reported as the estimated liability is $20,250

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

Profit margin = net profit / total sales = $78 / $5,200 = 1.5%  

Asset turnover = total sales / average total assets = $5,200 / ($2,990 + $3,510) = 1.6

Return on assets = net income / average total assets = $78 / $3,250 = 2.4%  

Return on common stockholders’ equity =  net income / average stockholders' equity = $78 / ($992 + $1,031) = 7.71%  

Gross profit rate = gross profit / total sales = $1,716 / $5,200 = 33%

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

1. Dividends = Dividends, it decreases stockholder's equity.

2. Rent Revenue = Revenue, it increases stockholder's equity

3. Advertising Expense = Expense, it decreases stockholder's equity

4. Stockholder's pay cash into business = Issuance of stock, increases stockholder's equity.

1. Dividends are paid from current year income or from retained earnings, as both current year earnings and retained earnings are clubbed into equity thus, with payment of dividend, equity is decreased.

3. Advertising expense will decrease the income and with decrease in income there will be decrease in equity.

4. Stockholder's pay cash into business as for issuance of stock and with issue of stock equity will increase.

On February 1, a seller paid $1,140 in annual property tax for the current calendar year. He sold the house with the closing set
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

$288

Explanation:

Since the total property taxes for the year are $1,140, to find the property tax per month we have to divide by 12 ⇒ $1,140 / 12 = $95 per month

The seller is responsible for paying the property taxes during 3 months and 1 day, to find out the amount for that 1 day we divide the monthly tax by 30 = $3.17 per day.

the total seller's credit = ($95 x 3) + $3 = $285 + $3 = $288

*The seller's credit includes all the expenses that must be paid by the seller, while the seller's debit includes all the money that he receives.
