Explanation / Answer

3.) Total assets = $380,000

Current assets = $120,000

Cash is 20% of current assets i.e. Cash = 0.2*120,000 = $24,000

Accounts receivables is 15% od current assets i.e. accounts receivables = 0.15*120,000 = $18,000

Inventory is part of current assets, therefore, the remaining current assets would be inventory

Therefore inventory = Current assets - cash - accounts receivables = 120,000 - 24,000 - 18,000 = 78,000

Inventory = $78,000

Plant and equipment, and other long-term assets are redundant as these are parts of long-term assets whereas inventory is part of current assets so we need only current assets to calculate the inventory.

So the answer is option e) i.e. $78,000

4.) Retained earning in begining of 2014 = $2,575,000

Net earnings in 2014 = $800,000

Payments to preferred shareholders = $100,000

Dividends = $350,000

Payments to preferred shareholders and dividends are paid from net income. We do not exclude them while calculating net income. So retained earnings for 2014 would be the amount after deducting payments to preferred shareholders and dividends from net income.

Therefore, retaing earnings for 2014 =Net income - payments to preferred shareholders - dividends = 800,000 - 100,000 - 350,000 = $350,000

To calculate the year end retained earning we will add retained earning in beginning of 2014 to retained earning in 2014

Therefore, retained earning balance at end of 2014 = beginning retained earnings + retained earning in the year = 2,575,000 + 350,000 = $2,925,000

So the answer is option b) i.e. $2,925,000
