Answer 1

14. Under IFRS, equity is also known as:

Shareholders' funds,

Owner's equity and

Capital and reserves.

Equity is not known as retained equity. Hence, correct option is (a)

19.

Cash sales = $600,000

Credit sales = $2,700,000

Bad debt percentage expected = 1%

Hence, expected bad debt = 2,700,000 x 1%

= $27,000

Since bad debt is a result of credit sales, hence it is not calculated on cash sales.

Journal entry to record bad debt expense will be as under:

Bad debt expense $27,000

Allowance for bad debts $27,000

Hence, correct option is (b)

21.

Interest on note payable = 150,000 x 6/100 x 4/12

= $3,000

Journal entry for notes payable and accrued interest on notes payable will be as under:

Notes payable $150,000

Interest payable $3,000

Cash $153,000

Hence, correct option is (b)

12.

5,000 shares of 5% , $100 par value, cumulative preferred stock = $500,000

Hence, total preferred dividend = 500,000 x 5%

= $25,000

Hence, correct option is (b)
