The journal entry is shown below:
On September 30
Bonds payable A/c Dr $1,000,000
Loss on bond retirement A/c Dr $20,000
To Discount on Bond A/c $10,000
To Cash A/c $1,010,000
(Being the callable bond is recorded)
The computation is shown below:
For cash
= Par value of bond + Premium
= $1,000,000 + $10,000
= $1,010,000
For Loss, it would be
= $1,010,000 - $990,000
= $20,000
And, the remaining amount would be transferred to discount on bond

Explanation:
Andrea and Phillip's annual premium cost can be calculated using the cost per thousand formula:
cost per thousand = annual premium / thousands of coverage
- cost per thousand = $0.98

$0.98 = annual premium / 350
annual premium = $0.98 x 350 = $343
Answer:
When doing time trend analysis for financial ratios we can know how a company's ratio's have changed over time or if they have remained the same, so for example if a company's current ratio was less than 1 a year ago and is 3 now it means that the company was not very liquid a year ago but since then has made changes because of which it is liquid now, so we can see how a company has performed over a certain period of time.
On the other hand peer group analysis tells us how a company is performing compared to other companies in the same industry. For example if our cement company has a profit margin of 7% but the industry average is 15% we know that our company is doing something wrong or different as compared to the industry and we can look into it.
