On january 2, 20x3, kean company purchased a 30 percent interest in pod company for $250,000. Pod reported net income of $100,000 for 20x3 and declared and paid a dividend of $10,000. Kean accounts for this investment using the equity method. In its december 31, 20x3, balance sheet, what amount should kean report as its investment in pod?

$277,000 should be reported by Kean.

Explanation:

Amount of investment Kean should report = Original cost of investment + share of net income of investors -share of investors dividend.

But ,

share of net income of investors = 30% of net income reported by Pod

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

share of investors dividend=  30% of dividend declared by Pod company

= 30 % x 10,000 = $3000

Therefore,

Amount of investment Kean should report = $250,000 + $30,000 - $3,000

=$277,000

the correct answer would be b, when, queen, calder hall and london.

explanation:

we always capitalize words when a paragraph or sentence is starting, when an important name is used, when a place is being written, or simply when a noun is used, etc. so in this sentence, sentence is starting from 'when', so it will be written in capital letters. secondly, queen is considered to be an important person, so it will also be written in capital letter. next, the name of the town is mentioned, i-e calder hall, which will also be written in capital letters. in the last,   city name is being used, 'london', which will also be written in capital letters. so option b is the most appropriate one.
