Answer: The current price of the bond is $258.74

Explanation:

The present value of the bond is its Current Price

We would use the following formua to calculate the Current Price of the bond,

PV = \frac{FV}{(1+r)^{N} } + A [\frac{1-\frac{1}{(1+r)^{N} } }{r} ]

Where,

FV = Face value =  $1,000

A = Coupon payment paid semi annually = (8% x 1000) / 2 = $40

r = Yield to Maturity = 16%

N = Number of periods = 15 years x 2 = 30 semi-annual periods

PV = \frac{1000}{(1+0.16)^{30} } + 40 [\frac{1-\frac{1}{(1+0.16)^{30} } }{0.16} ]

PV = 258.73618

Ahat [919]

Answer:

"$170 per unit" is the appropriate response.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Number of units produced

= 4,000

Direct material

= $39

Direct labor

= $71

Variable manufacturing overhead

= $5

Now,

The fixed manufacturing overhead will be:

=  \frac{220,000}{Units \ produced}

=  \frac{220,000}{4000}

=  55 \ per \ unit ($)

Hence,

The unit product cost under absorption costing will be:

=  Direct \ materials + Direct \ labor + Variable \ manufacturing \ overhead + Fixed \  manufacturingOn substituting the above values, we get

=  39+71+5+55

=  170 \ per \ unit ($)

In a decentralized company in which the divisions are organized as investment centers, how could a division be considered the le
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

This can be due to the method of allocating cost.

Explanation:

In the given scenario a division in a decentralised company earned the largest amount of income from operations, yet it was the least profitable.

This can be as a result of the cost allocation method the company uses.

If the company uses a cost allocation method where cost from other division is paid for by the division with largest income. The result will be that the other divisions that generate less income will appear to be more profitable.

The remedy for this is to use activity based costing. Where cost is allocated based on the level of activity of a division.

That way divisions will only pay for cost associated with their activity

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

Recognize the assessments as assessments receivable and revenue.

Explanation:

Practically, this will result in a receivable in the reserve fund, if the amounts are not received when due.

This could be seen when an/a corporation may decide on the amount of an assessment years before the cash is been used.

But cannot really obtain the revenue at the time of the decision, since the corporation can change its decision up until the day the amount is due. Also there are no specific parties being assessed, until the owner on record is known on the day the assessment is due, also the assessment should be recognized as revenue of the reserve fund when due.
