Answer:
Given that,
Total prepaid insurance = $6,700
Monthly insurance:
= Total prepaid insurance ÷ 4 months
= $6,700 ÷ 4 months
= $1,675
Insurance expense for two months:
= $6,700 - $1,675
= $5,025
Therefore, the adjusting entry required on December 31 is as follows:
Insurance expense A/c Dr. $5,025
To Prepaid insurance $5,025
(To record the adjusting entry for the insurance)
Answer:
Under the lower-of-cost-or- net realizable value basis of accounting for inventories, the value that Taylor should report for the TVs on the balance sheet is $350 × 5 = $1,750
Explanation:
The lower-of-cost-or- net realizable value basis of accounting for inventories values inventory at the lower of its cost or net realizable value.

Answer:
W = $27.34
Explanation:
Given data:
Percentage Decline in average income is = 2%
CPI in 1990 1.30
CPI in 2000 is 1.69
Average nominal wage is 2000 is $35
Inflation rate is given as
Inflation rate = % Change in CPI
= (1.69 / 1.3) - 1
= 1.3 - 1 = 0.3 = 30%
Real wage = Nominal wage / Price level, hence
Percentage change in real wage = % Change in (nominal wage - inflation rate)
-2% = % Change in nominal wage - 30%
% Change in nominal wage = 28%
let nominal wage in 1990 is w
W\times 1.28% = $35
solving for W = $27.34

Explanation:
The unemployment rate measures the amount of people who are out of a job for at least 4 weeks, and are actively seeking to find a new job. If a person is not willing or able to search for a job, he/she is not considered unemployed nor part of the labor force.
If unemployed people just quit looking for jobs, the unemployment will decrease even though the number of people who are out a job increases. This happens because as soon as someone quits looking for new job, they are not considered unemployed anymore.
