Answer:
Balance after 30 years = $151,018.50
Explanation:
In order to calculate this, we will calculate the future value on an amount invested, gaining interest over the years of investment, and this is given by:

where:
FV = future value
PV = present value
r = interest rate
t = time in years.
Hence the future value is calculated as follows:
1. For the first 10 years at 7% interest:
7% interest = 7/100 = 0.07


2. For the last 20 years at 9.5%(0.095) interest:
Note that for the remaining 20 years, the present value (PV) used = 24,589.392, as ending balance after the first 10 years


Total Future value earned = $151,018.50

Last Fiscal Year:
Interest Expense = $5550
Current Fiscal Year:
Interest Expense = $11100
Explanation:
According to the accrual basis of accounting, the expenses and revenues relating to a certain period should be recorded in that particular period whether of not they have been received. The fiscal year of Kieso ends on 31 December and as the loan was taken one month prior to the start of the current fiscal year, it was taken at the start of December of last fiscal year.
This means that the interest expense on loan relating to last December will be charged to the last fiscal year and the interest expense relating to January and February will be charged to the current fiscal year. The interest expense amount will be calculated as follows,
Last Fiscal Year = 740000 * 9% * 1/12 => $5550
Current Fiscal Year = 740000 * 9% * 2/12 => $11100
Answer: 29.93%
Explanation:
You can use Excel to solve for this.
Bear in mind that when given a series of cashflows, the expected return is the Internal Rate of Return (IRR).
Initial investment = $32
First cashflow = $1.25
Second cashflow = $1.31
Third cashflow = $1.38 + $65 selling price = $66.38
IRR = 29.93%
