On January 1 of this year, Thomas Insurance Corporation issued bonds with a face value of $ 4,000,000 and a coupon rate of 9 per
e-lub [12.9K]

Bonds Payable amount reflected in balance sheet = $2192890

Face Value = $2000000

Coupon Rate = 10%

Maturity Period = 10 years

Number of compounding = 2

Interest = $2000000 * 10% * 6/12 = $100000

Period = 2 * 10 = 20

Maturity Value = Face Value = $2000000

Market Interest Rate semiannually = 0.085 / 2 = 0.0425

Market Value = Present Value of Future Cash Flows

= PV of Interest + PV of maturity value

= (Interest * PVAF (4.25%, 20)) + (Maturity Value * PVIF (4.25%, 20))

= (100000 * 13.29437) + (2000000 * 0.434989)

= $1329437 + $869978

= $2199415

Since market value is greater than face value, we can say that bonds are issued at a premium.

Premium = $2199415 - $2000000 = $199415

Journal Entry to record the issuance of bonds:

Cash a/c                                               Dr          $2199415

     To Bonds Payable a/c                                 $2000000                            

     To Premium on the issue of bonds            $199415

Bonds Payable amount is a liability account that carries the quantity owed to bondholders by way of the company. This account usually seems in the lengthy-term liabilities section of the stability sheet, on account that bonds usually mature in more than one year.

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

The amount of revenue to be recognized at 31st March is $383500

Explanation:

The revenue amount that should be recognized in the income statement as at March 31,2020 is the  sales price of $365000 plus three months of installation fee since installation is expected to last six months and three months have passed since installation began.

Hence, the amount of revenue as at 31st March is calculated thus:

Sales price                                                                     $365000

Installation fee for 3 months(3/6*$37000)                   <u>$18500</u>

Total revenue as at 31st March                                    $ 383,500

The rationale behind this is that revenue is only recognized when the seller has discharged his or her obligation under the contract not when cash is received and it is very clear that installation has been undertaken for 3 out of 6 months

Per Chevron’s 3Q 2013 filing, what was the percentage change in the cost of purchased oil products when comparing nine months en
zalisa [80]

Answer:

Per Chevron 3Q 2013 Filling:

The percentage change in the cost of purchased oil products nine months to September 30, 2013 when compared to nine months in 2012 was:

2.47%

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Cost of purchased oil products:

2013       $34,822,000,000

2012       $33,982,000,000

Change $840,000,000

Percentage Change = $840/$33,982 x 100

= 2.47%

b) The implication is that Chevron's cost of purchased oil products in third quarter of 2013 increased by 2.47% when compared with the same period in 2012.  This percentage change is calculated by subtracting the Q3 2012 cost of purchased oil products from the Q3 2013 cost of purchased oil products and then dividing the difference by the Q3 2012, and multiplying by 100.  The change could be caused by increases in the price of oil products or other variables.
