Is the following statement True, False or Uncertain? Explain your answer. "In the long run, firms will exit the market if price
Ratling [72]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The purpose of any business is to make profit, which is from the difference between revenues (price of product multiplied number of product sold) with the cost of goods sold (average total cost multiplied number of product sold).

In short, the profit = (price - average total cost) x number of product sold.

Normally the price must be above/ higher than cost, so that the firm can have profit. Sometime the price in the market go down, so the firm have have to adjust down its price also to maintain customer's purchases.

Once its price is down, but the firm's average total cost is still same as previous, the firm can not have profit as previously. The firm may bear this situation as long as its capital capacity allowed, but will not be too long.

Nitella [24]

The main feature of this lesson is the equation P(x) = R(x) - C(x). Other important equations to remember are as follows: The breakeven point is when revenue equals cost, or when the profit is zero.

kupik [55]

Answer:

Riverbed Company

a) Journal Entries during 2020:

1. Debit Dividends Payable - Preferred Stock with $23,100

Debit Dividends Payable - Common Stock with $41,500

Credit Cash Account with $64,900

To record the payment of dividends.

2. Debit Treasury Stock with $62,400

Credit Cash Account with $62,400

To record the repurchase of 1,600 shares of common stock for $39 per share, using the cost method.

3. Debit Land Account with $28,700

Credit Treasury Stock with $28,700

To record the reissue of 700 treasury shares for land.

4. Debit Cash account with $56,710

Credit Preferred Stock with $53,000

Credit Additional Paid-in Capital- Preferred with $3,710

To record the issue of 530 shares of preferred stock at $107 per share.

5. Debit Stock Dividend with $10,000

Credit Dividends Payable with $10,000

To record the declaration of 10% stock dividend on outstanding common stock.

6. Debit Dividends Payable with $10,000

Credit Common Stock with $10,000

To record the issue of stock dividend.

7. Debit Dividends - Preferred with $28,930

Debit Dividends - Common Stock with $44,000

Credit Dividends Payable with $72,930

To record declaration of $11 per share dividend on preferred stock and $2 on common stock.

b) Stockholders' Equity Section of the Balance Sheet:

Preferred Stock:

Authorized, 10,000 at $100 par = $0

Issued and paid up, 2630 at $100 = $263,000

Additional Paid-in Capital - Preferred = $3,710

Common Stock:

Authorized 104,500 at $5 par value = $0

Issued and Paid up, 22,900 at $5 = $114,500

Less Treasury Stock, 900 shares = $33,700

Additional Paid-in Capital - Common = $135,000

Retained Earnings = $753,670 ($492,000 + 334,600 - 72,930)

Total = $1,236,180

Explanation:

1. The authorized stock does not form part of the value of equity.  This is why, for this case, a nominal value of $0 was assigned.  The authorized stock represents the maximum number of shares the company is legally authorized to issue.

2. The 2019 annual dividends paid were based on 2,100 shares issued for preferred and 20,00 shares for the common stock.

3. Treasury Stock is used to record the repurchase of own stock.  Based on the cost method, the total costs of issue and repurchase are recorded in the Treasury Stock without the above-par value being taken to the Additional Paid-in Capital.  The reissue of treasury stock for land does not affect the Cash Account.  The debit entry is to the Land Account.

4. Stock dividend declared and issued was calculated based on the outstanding balance at that time.  The outstanding totalled 20,000 shares.  10% of 20,000 equals 2,000.  This implies that additional stock was granted to stockholders as dividend.  The market price does not have to be taken into account in Riverbed.

5. Dividends declared on preferred stock was $11 per share.  The preferred stock at the time was 2,630 (2,100 + 530) after the issue of additional 530 shares of preferred stock.

6. The Retained Earnings are adjusted for net income and dividends declared for the year.  Note: The payment of dividend for 2019 does not affect the Retained Earnings.
