As of the end of 2013, none of the principal on this debt had been repaid. Assume that the company's sales in 2012 and 2013 were the same. Which of the following statements must be CORRECT?

b.  

The firm issued new common stock in 2013.

c.  

The firm had negative net income in 2013.

d.  

The firm increased its short-term bank debt in 2013.

e.

The firm repurchased some common stock in 2013.

Answer

Explanation:

b : The firm issued new common stock in 2013.

At the end of 2012 , common stock balance  is $ 2000000 and at the end of 2013 common stock balance is 3000000. Thus, the firm increased the new common stock in 2013

if the temperature drops and becomes cool

then the atmosphere can be freezing as the water vapor in the air is at maximum (100%) and can be severely cold

also can be snowing lightly as the moisture in the air will start to solidify

and btw this is not chemistry but
