Contact [7]

Answer:

Date, bonds sold at a premium

Dr Cash 5,500,000

    Cr Bonds payable 5,000,000

    Cr Premium on bonds payable 500,000

Explanation:

The total face value of the bonds is $1,000 x 5,000 bonds = $5,000,000

since the bonds were sold at 110, their price was $5,000,000 x 110% = $5,500,000

the difference between the face value and the actual market price = $5,500,000 - $5,000,000 = $500,000 must be recorded as premium on bonds payable (increases the bonds' carrying value)

Trend- % change in sales =  34.64%

Explanation:

<em>Trend analysis entails determining the performance of a business over time by comparing its performance data from one period to another. The aim of trend analysis is to identify the behavior of a set of ratios over a period of time by comparing them across different years.</em>

To determine the trend for a particular data, we use the formula below

% Change in variable =

(Current year figure - Previous year figure)/Previous year figure × 100

DATA

Current year figure  for sales (2017) - 450,000

Previous year figure for sale (2016) - 688,500

% change in sales =   (450,000 -688,500)/688,500 × 100 = 34.64%

% change in sales =  34.64%

This implies that the company made sales in 2017 which is 34.64% less than that made in 2016
