Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

economic responsibility

Explanation:

In this case, economic responsibility is part of corporate social responsibility and it is about balancing the company's operations and performing sustainable practices.

Another example is recycling, if recycling materials is simply to expensive, many companies will instead keep buying raw materials. This happens a lot with consumer electronics.

Cave​ Hardware's forecasted sales for​ April; May;​ June; and July are $ 200,000​; $ 210,000​; $ 150,000​; and $ 240,000​; respectively. Sales are 70​% cash and 30​% credit with all accounts receivables collected in the month following the sale. Cost of goods sold is 80​% of sales and ending inventory is maintained at $ 75,000 plus 10​% of the following​ month's cost of goods sold. All inventory purchases are paid 26​% in the month of purchase and 74​% in the following month. What is the balance of accounts payable on the June 30 budgeted balance sheet at Cave​ Hardware?

Answers

Answer:

The balance of account payable for month of June would be $94,128

Explanation:

Here for taking out the amount account payable for month of June , we will need to have Purchases for the month of June and as it is told that 74% of the inventory purchased would be paid in the following month, it means that the inventory that was purchased in May , 74% of it would be paid in June , so therefore the 74% of purchases would be the account payable for month of June.

First we would have to take out purchases and for that we will use equation of -

Cost of goods sold + ending inventory - opening inventory (for June)

COST OF GOODS SOLD =

$150,000 X 80%

= $120,000

ENDING INVENTORY =

$75,000 + 10% OF COST OF GOODS SOLD OF JULY

= $75,000 + 10% X [ 80% X $240,000 ]

= $75,000 + 10% X 192,000

= $75,000 + $19,200

= $94,200

OPENING INVENTORY =

$75,000 + $120,000 X 10%

= $75,000 + $12,000

= $87,000

Now putting all these values in equations top take out purchases-

=$120,000 + $94,200 - $87,000

= $127,200

PURCHASES = $127,200

ACCOUNT PAYABLE = PURCHASES X 74%

= $127,200 X 74%

= $94,128

Which of the following items is not classified as other comprehensive income (OCI)? a) Extraordinary gains from extinguishment of debt.
b) Prior service cost adjustment resulting from amendment of a defined benefit pension plan.
c) Foreign currency translation adjustments.
d) Unrealized gains for the year on available-for-sale debt securities.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is: A) Extraordinary gains from extinguishment of debt.

Explanation:

Other comprehensive income (OCI) refers to gains that have an effect on the balance sheet of a business but are not included in its income statement. They are reported separately on the statement of comprehensive income along with the net income. These gains have not yet been realized. For example, your company owns government bonds and their price increases, but the company has not sold them yet, so no capital gain has been realized.
