marusya05 [3725]

Response:

Common stock = $210,000

Preferred stock = $15,000

Additional paid-in capital = $2,801,000

Treasury stock = $120,000

Retained earnings = $31,600

Rationale:

Diane's Designs has two types of stock approved: 8%, $10 par value preferred and common stock valued at $1 par.

On January 1, 2021, the balances in the respective accounts were: Common Stock $10,000, preferred stock $5,000, retained earnings $9,600.

The account balances changed due to the following transactions throughout 2021, its inaugural year: January 1-Dec. 31 Net Income $25,000

January 1 Issue of 200,000 shares of common stock at $15 each.

RECORDING OF TRANSACTIONS

Dr. Bank..............60,000

Cr. Treasury Stock.......................60,000

December 31 Distributed dividends totaling $3,000

Closing balances can be determined as beginning balances + year-end alterations = final balances:

Common stock = 10,000 + 200,000 = $210,000

Preferred stock = 5,000 + 10,000 = $15,000

Additional paid-in capital = 2,800,000 + 1,000 = $2,801,000

Treasury stock = 180,000 - 60,000 = $120,000

Retained earnings 9,600 + 25,000 - 3,000 = $31,600

An investor paid $43,000 for a lot and $520,000 to have a strip mall constructed on it. he has depreciated the property for the
Scilla [3833]
<span>Over a duration of 39 years, the asset's depreciation occurs at a straight-line rate of 520/39 = 13.333 thousand annually. After 15 years, the cumulative depreciation amounts to 13.333*15 = $200,000. Consequently, the current book value of the structure stands at $520,000 - $200,000 = $320,000. Adding the land's book value of $43,000 results in a total property value of 320 + 43 = $363,000. If sold for $710,000, the capital gain would then be $710,000 - $363,000 = $347,000.</span>

Scilla [3833]

Answer:

PED = 0.67 indicates inelastic demand.

This suggests that reducing the book's price is not advisable.

Explanation:

To calculate price elasticity of demand, we utilize the midpoint formula: {(Q2 - Q1) / [(Q2 + Q1) / 2]} /  {(P2 - P1) / [(P2 + P1) / 2]}

PED is computed as follows: {(50 - 40) / [(50 + 40) / 2]} /  {(25 - 35) / [(25 + 35) / 2]} = [10 / (90 / 2)] /  [-10 / (60 / 2)] = (10 / 45) / (-10 / 30) = 0.222 / -0.333 = 0.67

The value of PED = 0.67 implies that the demand does not respond greatly to price changes.

If you proceed to lower the book's price, the rise in the number of copies sold will not be enough to offset the loss from the reduced price, resulting in financial loss.
