We can deduce that the net Income has increased from 20Y1 to 20Y2. Also, the net sales have also increased. Kindly check the attachment for the comparative income statement prepared.
This is nearly double the proposed US contribution to which of the following?
A
Kyoto Protocol
B
London Accords
C
Paris Agreement
D
Geneva Convention
Answer: C . Paris Agreement
Explanation:
You included no background passage or additional details to the question for me to know what contribution you speak of but the above is most probably the answer.
The U.S. never ratified the Kyoto Protocol so I don't think they had contribution requirements. The London Accords produces research for financial investors so has little to do with the U.S. as a whole.
The Geneva Convention is simply an agreement on conduct during wars so this does not require contributions. This leaves the Paris Agreement ... on Climate Change which has set targets on the emissions to be cut by developed countries so it is most likely the answer.

Explanation:
Firm X develops and licenses its designs to be produced by outside manufacturers. Firm Y develops and manufactures its own designs. If the total invested capital of the two firms is the same, which likely has more equity capital and why
Answer:
Firm X
Explanation:
In simple words, since the firm X is asset heavy they will have more equity capital in their accounts. On average, companies that adopt asset-light models achieve higher profits. Both provide the identical invested capital, but X has more equity wealth so it can have higher returns on investments.
Thus, from the above we can conclude that the correct answer is firm X.
Colorado Rocky Cookie Company offers credit terms to its customers. At the end of 2021, accounts receivable totaled $625,000. The allowance method is used to account for uncollectible accounts. The allowance for uncol- lectible accounts had a credit balance of $32,000 at the beginning of 2021 and $21,000 in receivables were writ- ten off during the year as uncollectible. Also, $1,200 in cash was received in December from a customer whose account previously had been written off. The company estimates bad debts by applying a percentage of 10% to accounts receivable at the end of the year.
Required:
1. Prepare journal entries to record the write-off of receivables, the collection of $1,200 for previously written off receivables, and the year-end adjusting entry for bad debt expense.
2. How would accounts receivable be shown in the 2016 year-end balance sheet?
Answer:
1. 1. Dr Allowance for uncollectible accounts $21,000
Cr Accounts receivable $21,000
2. Dr Accounts receivable $1800
Cr Allowance for uncollectible accounts $1800
3. Dr Cash $1,200
Cr Accounts receivable $1,200
4. Dr Bad debt expense $50,300
Cr Allowance for uncollectible accounts $50,300
2.Current Assets
Accounts receivable (net) $562,500
Explanation:
1. Preparation of journal entries to record the write-off of receivables
1. Dr Allowance for uncollectible accounts $21,000
Cr Accounts receivable $21,000
(To record written off of accounts receivable)
2. Dr Accounts receivable $1800
Cr Allowance for uncollectible accounts $1800
(To record reinstatement of account previously written off)
3. Dr Cash $1,200
Cr Accounts receivable $1,200
(To record collection of account previously written off)
4. Dr Bad debt expense $50,300
Cr Allowance for uncollectible accounts $50,300
(To record bad debt expense for the year)
Working:
Estimated bad debts expense= $625,000*10%= $62,500
Bad debt expense for the year= $32,000-21000+1200-62,500= $50,300
2. Calculation to determine How would accounts receivable be shown in the 2016 year-end balance sheet
Using this formula
Accounts receivable (net) = Beginning balance-Estimated bad debts expense
Let plug in the formula
Accounts receivable (net)= $625,000-($625,000*10%)
Accounts receivable (net)=$625,000 -$62,500
Accounts receivable (net)=$562,500
Therefore the accounts receivable be shown in the 2016 year-end balance sheet as:
BALANCE SHEET (PARTIAL)
Current Assets
Accounts receivable (net) $562,500

Uncle Tom’s factory in Tasmania is responsible for manufacturing the Direct Calorie Bar. The factory employs a process costing system. Due to the management accountant still suffering from food poisoning, you have been asked to prepare the end of period product costing.
The process for manufacturing the ‘Direct Calorie Bar’ involves mixing all the ingredients. The ingredients are then poured into moulds and injected with extra pure sugar and snap-frozen. It is assumed for process costing purposes that all raw material ingredients are added at the commencement of the process. Packaging occurs when the manufacturing process is 70% complete. For the purpose of accounting, the conversion costs of manufacturing are assumed to occur evenly across the whole of the production cycle.
The following information relates to the production of Direct Calorie Bar during the month of November.

On December 31, 2020, Brisbane Company had 100,000 shares of common stock outstanding and 30,000 shares of 7%, $50 par, cumulative preferred stock outstanding. On February 28, 2021, Brisbane purchased 24,000 shares of common stock on the open market as treasury stock paying $40 per share. Brisbane sold 6,000 treasury shares on September 30, 2021, for $45 per share. Net income for 2021 was $180,905.

Compute Brisbane's basic and diluted earnings per share for 2021.
Answer:
Brisbane Company
1. Brisbane's basic earnings per share for 2021 is:
= $0.93.
2. Brisbane's diluted earnings per share for 2021 is:
= $0.58.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
December 31, 2020:
Common stock outstanding = 100,000
7%, $50 par, Cumulative preferred stock = 30,000
Treasury stock on February 28 = 24,000
Resale of treasury stock on Sept 30 = 6,000
December 31, 2020:
Common stock outstanding = 82,000 (100,000 - 24,000 + 6,000)
Net income for 2021 = $180,905
Preferred stock dividends = $105,000 (30,000 * $50 * 7%)
Earnings for common stockholders = $75,905 ($180,905 - $105,000)
Stock options for key officers = 50,000
Basic earnings per share = $75,905/82,000 = $0.93
Diluted earnings per share = $75,905/(82,000 + 50,000) = $0.58

Prepare the Stockholders' Equity section of the balance sheet at December 31, 2011.
Answer:
Stockholders' Equity = $735,000
Explanation:
This can be prepared as follows:
Witt Corporation
Stockholders' Equity Section of the Balance Sheet
At December 31, 2011
Details Amount ($)
Common stock (w.1) 344,000
Preferred stock (w.2) 65,000
Additional paid in capital - Common stock (w.3) 181,000
Additional paid in capital - Preferred stock (w.4) 49,000
Net income 96,000
Stockholders' Equity 735,000
Workings:
w.1. Common stock = (Number of common shares issued in transaction a + Number of common shares issued in transaction c) * Par value of common stock = (40,000 + 3,000) * $8 = $344,000
w.2. Preferred stock = (Number of preferred shares issued in transaction b + Number of preferred shares sold in transaction c) * Par value of preferred stock = (5,500 + 1,000) * $10 = $65,000
w.3. Additional paid in capital - Common stock = (Number of common shares issued in transaction a * (Selling price per share of the transaction - Par value of common stock)) + (Number of common shares issued in transaction c * (Selling price per share of the transaction - Par value of common stock)) = (40,000 * ($12 - $8)) + (3,000 * ($15 - $8)) = $181,000
w.4. Additional paid in capital - Preferred stock = (Number of preferred shares issued in transaction b * (Selling price per share of the transaction - Par value of preferred stock)) + (Number of preferred shares issued in transaction c * (Selling price per share of the transaction - Par value of preferred stock)) = (5,500 * ($16 - $10)) + (1,000 * ($26 - $10)) = $49,000

Explanation:
Full question "Three years? ago, you invested in the Future Investco Mutual Fund by purchasing 1,000 shares of the fund at the price of $ 19.51 per share. Because you did not need the? income, you elected to reinvest all dividends and capital gains distributions. ? Today, you sell your 1,100 shares in this fund for ?$22.02 per share. If there were a 1?% load on this? fund, what would your rate of return? be? The compounded rate of return on this investment over the? three-year period is?"
Value of investment three year ago = 1,000 * $19.51 = $19,510
Value of investment today = 1,100 * $22.02 = $24,222
Load = 1%. Net Proceed from sale of investment = $24,222 * (1 - 1%) = $23,979.78
Rate of return in three year = ($23,979.78 - $19,510) / $19,510
Rate of return in three year = $4,469.79 / $19,510
Rate of return in three year = 0.229103
Rate of return in three year = 22.91%
Annual Return = [(1 + 22.91%)^(1 / 3)] - 1
Annual Return = 1.0712 - 1
Annual Return = 0.712 - 1
Annual Return = 7.12%
