Answer:

Winners

  • The US Federal Government
  • Joy

Losers

  • Karen
  • Herb
  • 3rd National Bank

Explanation:

The US Federal Government is a Winner because Inflation in general has the effect of eroding the value of money. Generally interest rates account for this but when it is Unexpected Inflation they don't. The US government is a winner because the amount of debt they now have in real terms have decreased.

Joy is also a winner for the same reason as the US government.

Karen lost out as a result of this because her Fixed Pension does not change with inflation which means that when inflation rates go up unexpectedly she will be able to buy less goods and services.

Herb's money will lose real value as a result of inflation because like Karen, Herb will be able to buy less goods and services when inflation rises.

3rd National Bank will also lose out because they made loans that would not have accounted for Unexpected inflation. The real value that they will be owed will therefore be less and they will suffer 'real' losses.

Bramble Corp. has $3960000 of 9% convertible bonds outstanding. Each $1,000 bond is convertible into 30 shares of $30 par value
natta225 [31]

Answer: Credit of $217480 to Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par

Explanation:

The following information is given in the question as:

Debit: Bonds payable = $1,250,000

Debit: Premium on bonds payable = $92480

Credit: Common stock = $1,125,000

Credit: Paid in capital in excess of Par = $217480

The above were calculated as:

Common stock = ($1250,000/$1,000) × 30 × 30

= $1250 × 90

= $1,125,000

% Conversion will be:

= $1,250,000 / $3960000 = 0.32

Unamortized bond premium will then be:

= 0.32 × $289,000

= $92,480

Paid in capital in excess of par will be:

= $1,250,000 + $92,480- $1,125,000

= $217,480

Therefore, the answer will be to

"Credit of $217480 to Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par"
