$59,000; Patent (net) $28,000. No long-term assets were purchased or sold during the year.
How much amortization and depreciation expense did Quentin record during 2004?
A. Cannot be estimated
B. $3,000
C. $7,000
D. $4,000
***My Answer: C (7,000). Because in the question it states plant and equipment balances of 59,000 yet on the balance sheet it notes 56,000 which results in a $3,000 difference. In the question it also notes 28,000 in patent assets yet in the balance sheet it shows 24,000 for a difference of $4,000. I added those two up to get the difference of $7,000.
20. Quentin's 2004 net income was $5,000. No dividends were declared or paid during 2004. What
was Quentin's retained earnings balance on December 31, 2003?
A. Cannot be estimated
B. $39,000
C. $34,000
D. $49,000
My Answer: B because RE = Beginning RE +net income -dividends
