Answer Preview

1 Given, On April 1, Bear Inc. paid $2,400 of insurance premium on three year insurance policy.

So, on April 1, Bear Inc records the payment of insurance as Prepaid Insurance of $2,400.

Insurance premium per year = Total Premium / No.of Years

= $2,400 / 3

Insurance premium per year = $800

Insurance premium related to April 1 - December 31 (9 months) = $800 * (9/12) = $600

So, the Premium accrued at the end of the year is $600

Prepaid Insurance Account at the end of the year = Total Prepaid Insurance - Insurance premium accrued at the end of the year

= $2,400 - $600

Prepaid Insurance Account at the end of the year = $1,800

Hence, Balance of Prepaid Insurance Account at the end of the year is $1,800

So, Option d) $1,800 is correct

Statement of profit or loss    
        $  
Sales revenue       240000  
Less: Cost of goods sold     (Note:1) 84000  
Gross profit       156000  
Less:Expenses   (240000*15%)   36000  
(Sales revenue*Expense as a % of sales)          
Income before tax       120000  
Less:Tax expense   (240000*30%)   72000  
(Sales revenue*Tax rate on profit)          
Net income       48000  
           
Note:1          
Cost of goods sold=Sales revenue-Gross profit  
Gross profit=Sales revenue*Gross profit as percentage of sales=240000*35%=$ 84000

Current ratio=Current assets/Current liabilities  
Current liabilities=Current assets/Current ratio=48000/2=$ 24000
           
Note:3          
Debt to equity ratio=Long-term liabilities/Equity  
Long-term liabilities=Equity*Debt to equity ratio  
Return on equity=Net income/Equity    
Equity=Net income/Return on equity=48000/15%=$ 320000
Long-term liabilities=320000*0.8=$ 256000  
           
Note:4          
Total assets=Total liabilities and equity=$ 600000  
Total assets=Current assets+Long-term assets  
Long-term assets=Total assets-Current assets=600000-48000=$ 552000
