Answer:

Feb. 2021

  Dr Gift Card Liability         $20

     Cr Gift Card Revenue    $20

(to record revenue arisen from oustanding Gift Card Liability)

Explanation:

Under GAAP, the accounting for Gift Card is quite simple. When the gift card are sold, Gift Card Issuer receives Cash (Debit Cash) and assume the Liability (Cr Liability) to anyone owning the gift card for later providing of goods/services priced at the Cash amount that had been received.

It is not until Gift Card is redeemed that Gift Card Issuer is allowed to record revenue (Credit Revenue) as it is an actual point of time when the provide of goods/services takes place. Also at the same time, once the goods/services are provided, they Liability assumed earlier in time through Gift Card issuance will be discharged to the extent of the price of goods/services provided.

1. Assume you are planning to invest $200 each year for four years and will earn 8 percent per year. Determine the future value
Virty [35]

Answer:

The future value of the $200 invested yearly for 4 years at 8% is $973.32

Explanation:

The future value of an immediate annuity is given by the formula = (1+r)*[P*((1+r)^n-1)/r]

P=is the periodic payment of $200

r=rate of return=8 percent

n=number of years=4

By slotting the variables into the formula we have:

Fv=(1+0.08)*(200*((1+0.08)^4-1)/0.08)

FV=$973.32

Judging by the concept of time value of money, it is expected that the sum invested at interest would have been much more at maturity of the investment as $1 today should give a lot more than $1 in future.

Assume that the risk-free rate of interest is 5% and the expected rate of return on the market is 17%. A share of stock sells fo
Ugo [173]

Answer:

New price (P1) = $72.88

Explanation:

Given:

Risk-free rate of interest (Rf) = 5%

Expected rate of market return (Rm) = 17%

Old price (P0) = $64

Dividend (D) = $2

Beta (β) = 1.0

New price (P1) = ?

Computation of expected rate on return:

Expected rate on return (r) = Rf + β(Rm - Rf)

Expected rate on return (r) = 5% + 1.0(17% - 5%)

Expected rate on return (r) = 5% + 1.0(12%)

Expected rate on return (r) = 5% + 12%

Expected rate on return (r) = 17%

Computation:

Expected rate on return (r) = (D + P1 - P0) / P0

17% = ($2 + P1 - $64) / $64

0.17 = (2 + P1 - $64) / $64

10.88 = P1 - $62

New price (P1) = $72.88
