1. Based on the preceding information, what is the total amount
of unsecured claims?
A. $52,000
B. $71,000
C. $75,000
D. $95,000
2. Based on the preceding information, what estimated amount
will be available for general unsecured creditors upon
liquidation?
A. $34,000
B. $52,000
C. $56,000
D. $75,000
3. Based on the preceding information, what is the estimated
dividend percentage?
A. 45 percent
B. 55 percent
C. 61 percent
D. 69 percent
1. B. $71,00
I.e. 40,000+6,000+12,000+5,000+8,000
2. B. $52,000
i.e. (150,000+75,000-200,000-8,000) + 10,000 + 25,00
Note that fair value of accounts receivable & inventory is not added as their value is less than Notes Payable which are secured against it. So there will be no extra payment left out of them to pay unsecured.
3. Aditional information needed
Equity = 510,000 - 361,000
= $149,000
Dividend, question incomplete.
Also the total of fair value mentioned is wrong. Kindly check if there is additional information.
