Answer:

1.89%

Explanation:

The book value of the merchandise is  $178,000

Physical inventory reveals stock is worth $169,000

The shrinkage = $178,000 - $169,000

=$9000

As a percentage of sales, the shrinkage will be

=$9000/$476,000 x 100

=0.0189076 x 100

Triss [41]

Answer:

sales revenue for the period: $  143,900

operating expenses:               $   78,000

Explanation:

We solve for sales using the account recievable identity:

beginning account receivable + sales - collection = ending account receivable

12,330 + sales - 137,920 = 18,310

sales = 137,920 + 18,310 - 12,330 = 143,900

Then, for operating expenses, we have a prepaid expenses thus unexpired and therefore, not expenses under accrued accounting.

we solve like this:

beginning prepaid expenses    19,800

payment on expenses              84,990

total expenses payment          104,790

We now subtract the prepaid (unexpired) to get the amount accrued for the period:

104,790 - 26,790 = 78,000

Sidana [21]

Answer: values

Explanation:

Societal values can simply be defined as the moral principles defined by the traditions, society dynamics, and cultural beliefs.

These values impact on the behavior of the people. An example is Germans' lack of interest in using credit cards like Visa and MasterCard, because the German word for 'debt' is the same as the word guilt. This hae to do with their belief and values.

tekilochka [14]
<span>Symbolic interactionists believe that the social value of the elderly in America decreased when the economy shifted being agricultural to industrial. 
This may be completely true - industrial era means more use of technology, and usually, the elderly aren't that keen on using new technology. This also means that they are less and less relevant when it comes to the social life in America which is always growing and developing.</span>

Alika [10]

Answer:

The statement is true, as it is an example of foreign direct investment.

Explanation:

Foreign direct investment is the direct investment by individuals or legal persons in production or business operations abroad. In this context, investments include both acquisition of foreign operations and expansion of own operations.  

Foreign direct investment does not include the purchase of either shares or bonds per se. More specifically, the IMF has restricted direct investment on acquisitions to cases where the foreign investor owns 10% or more of the shares that give administrative rights in the business. Investment funds that can be classified as foreign direct investments therefore include equity deposits, reinvestments of dividends from the business, as well as the allocation of short-term and long-term loans between parent companies and subsidiaries.

marin [14]

Answer:

1. a. Allocated prices

First add the market values = 444,150 + 255,150 + 56,700 + 189,000 = $945,0

00

Building allocated price                                     Land allocated price

= 444,150/ 945,000 * 830,000                        = 255,150/945,000 * 830,000

= $‭390,100‬                                                           = $224,100

Land improvement allocated price                  Four vehicles allocate price

= 56,700/945,000 * 830,000                          = 189,000/945,000 * 830,000

= $49,800                                                        = $166,000

b. Journal entry

Date                 Account Details                             Debit                   Credit

Jan. 1, 2017      Building                                       $390,100

                        Land                                            $224,100

                        Land improvement                     $49,800

                        Vehicles                                      $166,000

                        Cash                                                                         $830,000

2. Depreciation on building using straight-line method.

= (390,100 - 28,000) / 15

= $‭24,140‬

3. Depreciation on land improvements using double declining method.

First do straight line:

= 49,800/ 5 years

= $9,960

Straight line rate of depreciation = 9,960/49,800 = 20%

Double declining will be twice that rate = 40%

Depreciation = 40% * 49,800

= $‭19,920‬
