Answer:
 The total amount of dividends paid over these three years is $8,600
Explanation:
The computation of the total amount of dividend for three years is shown below:
= Net income for first-year - net loss for the second year + net loss for the third year - ending retained earning balance
= $6,700 - $1,200 + $3,800 - $700
= $8,600
As we know,  
The ending balance of retained earning = Beginning balance of retained earnings + net income - dividend paid
So, we apply the same formula to compute the dividend amount
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
d. It will have a credit balance of $100,000.
Explanation:
In the income statement, the total revenues and the total expenses are recorded.  
If the total revenues are more than the total expenditure then the company earns net income
And, If the total revenues are less than the total expenditure then the company have a net loss
This net income or net loss would reflect in the statement of the retained earning account. 
So, the balance of income summary equals to
= Sales - expenses
= $540,000 - $440,000
= $100,000
The dividend should be deducted from the retained earning account. Hence, it will not be consider here
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
C. Step variable cost
Explanation:
Fixed costs are those costs which are incurred anyways irrespective of the level of operation of a business or the volume of activity. For example rent of factory is a fixed cost which has to be incurred regardless of the production level.
Variable costs are those costs which vary with the level of production. e.g labor cost.
In this case, a T- shirt is given to every 100th customer.  This kind of cost is step cost at the level of 100th customer. The number of T-shirts in a day would depend upon the no of patrons arriving each day i.e variable. 
Thus, this is the case of a step variable cost which is incurred at discrete point i.e every 100th customer.
 
        
                    
             
        
        
        
Answer:
$6,689
Explanation:
As we know that the inventory should be recorded at cost or net realizable value which ever is lower
Particulars      Item Units      Unit Cost         Net Realizable Value    LCNRV
Minolta              7                    $175                $157                              $157
Canon               11                    142                   176                               $142
Vivitar               14                    130                   111                                $111
Kodak               17                     120                  132                              $120
So, the amount of ending inventory is 
= 7 units  × $157 + 11 units × $142 + 14 units × $111 + 17 units × $120
= $1,099 + $1,562 + $1,988 + $2,040
= $6,689
 
        
             
        
        
        
payable = money owed by a company to its creditors
