Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

The answer is D.

Explanation:

To increase asset and expense, you debit while credit decreases it.

To increase, liabity, revenue(income), equity, you credit while debit decreases it.

An insurance that has been prepaid is an asset because the benefit has not been fully utilised.

Samson and Sons has paid for an insurance that will expire December at the beginning of July.

Assume you have $2,000 in a savings account at the beginning of the year and the price level is equal to 100. If the price level
leva [86]

Answer:

$1,667

Explanation:

Given that,

Savings account at the beginning of the year = $2,000

Price level at the beginning of the year = 100

Price level at the end of the year = 120

Price level increases from 100 to 120

Therefore, what was worth $120 earlier, is not worth only $100.

Hence, $120 at the beginning of the year is worth = $100 at the end of the year

$1 at the beginning of the year is worth = ($100 ÷ $120) at the end of the year

Savings of $2,000 at the beginning of the year is worth:

= ($100 ÷ $120) × $2,000

= 0.833 × $2,000

= $1,667

Therefore, the real value of the savings is $1,667.
