Journal Entry:

Bad Debt A/c Dr  $9,000

To Credit Allowance for Bad & Doubtful  A/c    $9,000

(Being the Bad debt A/c is recorded)

 Bad debts = Uncollectible Amount - Credit balance in Allowance for doubtful A/c

Where,

Uncollectible Amount = $12,000

Credit balance in Allowance for doubtful A/c = $3,000

By putting the value we get,

= $12,000 - $3,000

= $9,000

Which of the following theorems explains the relationship between interest rates and bond prices? For a given change in interest
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

For a given change in interest rates, the prices of long-term bonds will change more drastically than the prices of short-term bonds.

Explanation:

A bond can be defined as a fixed income instrument that firms use as a source of longer-term funding or loans.

The par value of a bond is its face value and it comprises of its total dollar amount as well as its maturity value. Also, the par value of a bond gives the basis on which periodic interest is paid. Thus, a bond is issued at par value when the market rate of interest is the same as the contract rate of interest. This simply means that, a bond would be issued at par (face) value when the bond's stated rated is significantly equal to the effective or market interest rate on the specific date it was issued.

In Economics, bonds could either be issued at discount or premium.

Hence, a bond that is being issued at a discount has its stated rate lower than the market interest rate, on the specific date of issuance. Also, a bond that is being issued at a premium, has its stated rate higher than the market interest rate on the specific date of issuance.

Generally, bond price is inversely proportional to its interest rate, thus, when interest rates are high, bond prices would be low and when interest rates are low, bond prices are high.

The theorem that best explains the relationship between interest rates and bond prices is that for a given change in interest rates, the prices of long-term bonds will change more drastically than the prices of short-term bonds because long-term bondholders are liable to higher rate of interest rate risks than the short-term bondholders.

Walker Machine Tools has 6.5 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current market price of Walker common stock is $72
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

(a) Earnings per share = Net income ÷ Number of shares

= $22,500,000 ÷ 6,500,000

= $3.46

Price-earnings ratio = Stock price ÷ Earnings per share

= $72 ÷ $3.46

= 20.81

(b) Earnings per share = Net income ÷ Number of shares

= $22,500,000 ÷ (6,500,000 + 650,000)

= $3.15

R = (M0 - S) ÷ (N + 1)

= ($72 - $66.50) ÷  (7 + 1)

= $0.69

where,

M0 = current market price of Walker common stock

S = selling price per share

N = seven rights is needed to buy one of the new shares

Ex-rights price = Rights-on price - Rights value

= $72 - $0.69

= $71.31

Price-earnings ratio = Stock price ÷ Earnings per share

= $71.31 ÷ $3.15

= 22.64

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? Assume a company's target capital structure is 50% debt and 50% common equity.a. T
Bond [772]

The correct statement among the given is 'cost of equity is always equal to or greater than the cost of debt' .

Option-c

<u>Explanation: </u>

Debt on assets which are less likely to lose is secured more uncertainty leads to lower returns, hence lower costs. The risk of loss to equity holders also remains greater and not even assured against any collateral. In comparison to higher risk equity holders foresee higher returns.

This is why debt costs are higher. Such high risk will lead to higher equity costs than debt costs. To investors, equity costs would be returned on equity investment, and debt costs would be made as part of debt investment.
