190 % of simple interest rate does she need to achieve the necessary amount of principal.

we know that

The simple interest formula is equal to

A=P(1+rt)

where

A = Final Investment amount

P = Principal amount of money

r = rate of interest  

t = Number of Time Periods

in this problem we have

t= 25 years

P= $80,000

A= $4,000,000

r=?

substitute in the formula above

4,000,000 = 80,000(1+25r)

50 = 1+25r

50-1=25r

49=25r

r=1.96

Convert to percentage

r = 1.9 * 100

  = 190 %

The simple interest rate is 190%

Mills Corporation acquired as a long-term investment $200 million of 7% bonds, dated July 1, on July 1, 2018. Company management
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

investment on bonds   200 millions

premium on bonds         40 millions

                        cash                            240 millions

to record the purchase of bonds

cash                             7 millions

      interest revenue             6 millions

      premium on bonds         1 million

interest proceeds of december 31th

Balance sheet:

bonds      200

premium    39

net            239

cash                                             250 millions

              investment on bonds                         200 millions

              premium on bonds                               39 millions

              gain on sale of invesment                    11   millions

to record the sale of bonds

                       

Explanation:

<u>recording the bonds:</u>

acquisition             240

bonds face value (200)

premium                  40

It is a premium, as the bonds where purchased at higher price than face value

<u>Interest at December 31th</u>

To calculate the interest, we will calcualte the interest per payment:

7% annual coupon rate /2 payment per year = 3.5% semi-annual rate

5% market rate /2 payment per year = 2.5% semi-annual market rate

cash proceeds: 200 x 3.5% = 7

interest revenue:

carrying value x market rate

240 x 2.5% = 6

amortization 7 - 6 = 1

<u>Value in the balance sheet:</u>

the net value of the bond will be the face value plus the carrying value of the premium

<u>Sale of the bonds:</u>

selling price                           250

carrying value of the bonds (239)

gain on sale of bonds              1 1

It is a gain, as the bonds are being sold at a higher price than his carrying value.

Western Bank &amp; Trust purchased land and a building for the lump sum of $3 million dollars. To get the maximum tax deduction,
leonid [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Because land never depreciates, Western Bank & Trust wanted to distribute a higher percentage of the purchase price to the building, rather than the land. By allocating 90% of the purchase price to the building, rather than a more accurate 70%, Western Bank & Trust increases the depreciation amount of the building each year. For tax purposes, the IRS requires that the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) be used as the depreciation method used by companies. Under this method, the IRS specifies the useful life for a specific asset. MACRS also ignores residual value of an asset at the end of its useful life. By stating that the building was worth 90% of the total purchase price, Western Bank is attempting to increase its tax deduction from the IRS, because only the building depreciates, not the land. This improper allocation of the total purchase amount violates GAAP principles, which require that accounting information be “relevant and have faithful representation.” The information must be “complete, neutral, and free from error” (Nobles, Mattison, & Matsumura, 2014). For Western Bank to provide complete, neutral, and free from error information, it should record the transaction honestly: 70% to the building, 30% to the land. This dishonest representation is harmful to the federal government in that it is allowing Western Bank to take more money than what it is owed. If these kinds of situations happen on a large scale, it could have a huge impact on the economy in general. Source: Nobles, T., Mattison, B., & Matsumura, E. M. (2014).
