Answer:

c. The price of Bond A will decrease over time, but the price of Bond B will increase over time

Explanation:

Bond A has a higher coupon rate than market thus, investor will accept to purchase the bond for a higher price until the YTM of this bond equals the market rate

Bond B is the opposite, is paying lower thus, will we purchase for less.

As times passes both will get their market value closer to the face value of the bond because, at maturity the bond will pay 1,000.

Making Bond A lower his price while B increases.

A company has only two divisions: division a and division
Sloan [31]

Answer – Division A

 

EXPLANATION’

 

Given for last year,

Division A made 60% of the company's total revenue.

Let the company’s total revenue for last year be x

60% of x = 0.6x

Division A made 0.6x last year

 

Also given for last year,

Division B made 40% of the company's total revenue.

If the company’s total revenue for last year is x

40% of x = 0.4x

Division B made 0.4x last year

 

For this year,

We are told that division A's revenue has decreased by 35%

Last year’s revenue was 0.6x

Division A’s revenue for this year = 0.6x – (35% of 0.6x)

= (100% of 0.6x) – (35% of 0.6x)

= (100% * 0.6x) – (35% * 0.6x)

= (100% - 35%) * 0.6x

= 65% * 0.6x

= 65/100 * 0.6x

= 0.39x

Therefore this year, Division A’s revenue is 0.39x

 

Again for this year,

We are told that division B's revenue has decreased by 5%

Last year’s revenue was 0.4x

Division B’s revenue for this year = 0.4x – (5% of 0.4x)

= (100% of 0.4x) – (5% of 0.6x)

= (100% * 0.4x) – (5% * 0.4x)

= (100% - 5%) * 0.4x

= 95% * 0.4x

= 0.38x

Therefore this year, Division B’s revenue is 0.38x

 

If Division A’s revenue is 0.39x, and Division B’s revenue is 0.38x; then Division A had higher revenue this year.

Exercise 7-4A Effect of recognizing uncollectible accounts expense on financial statements: Percent of revenue allowance method
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Rosie Dry Cleaning

a. Organization of the transaction data in accounts under an accounting equation:

Year 1:

The accounting equation is Assets = Liabilities + Equity.

1) Provided $29,940 of cleaning services on account.

Assets (Accounts Receivable) increases by $29,940; Equity (Retained Earnings) increases by $29,940.  So, Assets + $29,940 = Liabilities + Equity + $29,940.

2) Collected $23,952 cash from accounts receivable.

Assets (Cash) increases by $23,952 and Assets (Accounts Receivable) decreases by $23,952.  So, Assets + $23,952 and - $23,952 = Liabilities + Equity.

3) Adjusted the accounting records to reflect the estimate that uncollectible accounts expense would be 1 percent of the cleaning revenue on account.

Assets (Accounts Receivable) reduces by $59.88 and Equity (Retained Earnings) reduces by $59.88.  So, Assets - $59.88 = Liabilities + Equity - $59.88.

Year 2:

1. Wrote off a $225 account receivable that was determined to be uncollectible.

Assets (Accounts Receivable) decreases by $225 and Equity (Retained Earnings) decreases by $225.  So, Assets - $225 = Liabilities + Equity - $225.

2. Provided $34,940 of cleaning services on account.

Assets (Accounts Receivable) increases by $34,940 and Equity (Retained Earnings) increases by $34,940.  So, Assets + $34,940 = Liabilities + Equity + $34,940.

3. Collected $30,922 cash from accounts receivable.

Assets (Cash) increases by $30,922 and Assets (Accounts Receivable) decreases by $30,922.  So, Assets + $30,922 - $30,922 = Liabilities + Equity.

4. Adjusted the accounting records to reflect the estimate that uncollectible accounts expense would be 1 percent of the cleaning revenue on account.

Assets (Accounts Receivable) decreases by $37.93 ($97.81 - $59.88) and Equity (Retained Earnings) decreases by $37.93.  So, Assets - $37.93 = Liabilities + Equity - $37.93.

b. 1) Net Income for Year 1:

Sales = $29,940

less Allowance for uncollectible = $59.88)

Total = $29,880.12

2) Net Cash Flows from operating activities for Year 1 = $23,952.

3) Balance of Accounts Receivable at the end of Year 1:

Sales = $29,940

Less Cash Receipt = $23,952

Balance = $5,988

4) Net Realizable value of accounts receivable at the end of Year 1.

Accounts Balance = $5,988

less Allowance for Uncollectible = $59.88

Net Realizable = $5,928.12

c 1) Net Income for Year 1:

Sales = $34,940

less Bad Debts Expense = $262.93 ($37.93 + $225)

Total = $34,677.07

2) Net Cash Flows from operating activities for Year 1 = $30,922.

3) Balance of Accounts Receivable at the end of Year 1:

Beginning balance = $5,988

Sales = $34,940

Less Bad Debts Expense = $225

Less Cash Receipt = $30,922

Balance = $9,781

4) Net Realizable value of accounts receivable at the end of Year 1.

Accounts Balance = $9,781

less Allowance for Uncollectible = $97.81

Net Realizable = $9,683.19

Explanation:

The accounting equation states that Assets equal Liabilities plus Equity.  Any change in one side of the equation affects the other.  Sometimes, a transaction or event affects one side only by increasing one account and decreasing another account on the same side of the equation.  Examples are demonstrated in the answer above.

When an uncollectible is deemed bad, it reduces the Accounts Receivable and increases the bad debt expense.  The overall effect on the accounting equation is a reduction in Assets and Equity respectively.

On July 1, 20x1, Fox Co. purchased as a held-to-maturity investment $5,000,000 of Owl, Inc.'s 8% bonds for $4,580,000, including
Dimas [21]

Answer:

The amount fox should report on Dec 31,20x1 = $4,556,500

Explanation:

The carrying amount of bonds = $4,580,000 - $50,000

The carrying amount of bonds = $4,530,000

Amortization of discount from july 1 to dec 31 (6 months):

Interest Revenue = $4,530,000* 10% * 6/12

Interest Revenue= $226500

Interest Receivable = $5,000,000 * 8% * 6/12

Interest Receivable = $200000

Discount amortized =Interest Revenue - Interest Receivable

Discount amortized = $226500 - $200000

Discount amortized = $26500

So:

The amount fox should report on Dec 31,20x1 = $4,530,000 + $26500

The amount fox should report on Dec 31,20x1 = $4,556,500

An amount of $2,500 is deposited in a savings account that earns 2.5% interest. Which is the future value
Lynna [10]

Answer:

$3,208

Explanation:

The computation of the future value is shown below;

As we know that

Future valie = Present value × (1 + rate of interest)^number of years

where

Present value is $2,500

Rate of interest = 2.5% ÷ 4 = 0.625%

And, the time period is = 10  × 4 = 40

So, the future value is

= $2,500 × (1 + 0.625%)^40

= $3,208
