Answer: 1. $218750 ; 2. $231, 250 ; 3. $11562.50
Explanation:
1. The bonds with a par value of $250,000 and implied selling price of 87 ½.
Cash proceed = 250,000 × 87.5%
= $218,750
2. Since it's semiannual interest payments, the total amount of bond interest expense that will be recognized over the life of these bonds will be:
[20 × (250,000 × 8% × 6/12)]+ $250,000 - $218,750
= $200,000 + $250,000 - $218,750
= $231, 250
3. The amount of bond interest expense recorded on the first interest payment date will be:
= Total bond interest expense/number of payments
= $231,250/20
= $11562.50

b. They are treated differently because the loss in value of Carol's stock is the result of a sale, while the loss in value of Dave's stock is simply a decline in value.

Answer:
A. $119,000
B. 10%
C.$11,900
Explanation:
Deprecation is a method used in expensing the cost of an asset.
The depreciable cost = Cost of asset - Salvage value = $123,800 - $4,800 = $119,000
The straight line rate = 1/10= 0.1 = 10%
annual straight-line depreciation = depreciable cost × straight line rate = $119,000 × 0.1 = $11,900

Answer: $4,950
Explanation:
If the company is using the First In First Out method for Inventory valuation then the earlier inventory is sold off first which would mean that the inventory at year end will be the more recent inventory.
The 25 units at the end of the year will be the most recent units purchased and so will be;
20 units from the third purchase
5 units from the 2nd purchase
Inventory value = (20 * 195) + ( 5 * 210)
= $4,950
