Explanation / Answer

10. Answer: Option D) $22,500

Nancy Drew Company’s share in Finley Corporations:

Dividends = 30% x $25,000 = $7,500

Net income = 30% x $100,000 = $30,000

Under equity method, share in dividends will reduce the book value of Nancy Drew’s investment in Finley while share in net income will increase the same.

Thus, there will be a net increase in investment in Finley by $22,500 ($30,000 - $7,500).

11. Answer: Option A) the Cost method

Investments of less than 20% in an investee company’s outstanding common stock are accounted for by using the cost method.

The equity method is used for investments between 20% to 50% and consolidated financial statements are prepared if investment is more than 50% and the investor is considered to have control over the investee company.

12. Answer: Option D) $856,000

Barley Company’s share in Oak Company’s:

Net income = 40% x $200,000 = $80,000

Dividends = 40% x $60,000 = $24,000

Under equity method, share in dividends will reduce the book value of Barley Company’s investment in Oak Company while share in net income will increase the same.

Net Book Investment in Oak Company on December 31, 2011 = $800,000 + $80,000 - $24,000 = $856,000

13. Answer: Option B) $290,000

Cash flow from operating activities = Net income (+/-) Decrease/Increase in Accounts receivables

Accounts receivable (BI) $80,000 – Accounts receivable (EI) $70,000 = Decrease in Accounts receivable $10,000

Cash flow from operating activities = $280,000 + $10,000 = $290,000
