Credit cash - - - - - - - $14,000

Discount payable on bond - - - - - $1,351.72

Explanation:

Parker value =$400,000

contract rate = 7% = 0.07

Market rate = 8%

Discounted bond = $383,793

First interest payment using straight lime amortization;

Debit interest expense :

8% of $383,793

0.08 × $383,793 = $30,703.44

$30,703.44 ÷ 2 = $15,351.72(semi annually)

Credit cash;

7% of $400,000

0.07 × $400,000 = $28,000

$28,000÷2 = $14,000(semi annually)

Discount on bond payable ;

Debit interest expense - Credit cash

$15,351.72 - $14,000 =$1,351.72= Discount amortization

The Dollar sales break even for the company is $568750, for the north region is $320000 and for the south region is $80000.

Explanation:

1. for the company:

cont margin ration = contribution/sale

                               = 240000/750000

                               = 0.32

fixed cost = 182000

dollar sales break even = fixed cost/cont margin ratio

                                       = 182000/0.32

                                       = $568750

2.  for the north region:

cont margin ration = contribution/sale

                               = 120000/600000

                               = 0.20

fixed cost = 64000

dollar sales break even = fixed cost/cont margin ratio

                                       = 64000/0.20

                                       = $320000

3. for the south region:

cont margin ration = contribution/sale

                               = 120000/150000

                               = 0.80

fixed cost = 64000

dollar sales break even = fixed cost/cont margin ratio

                                       = 64000/0.80

                                       = $80000

Therefore, The Dollar sales break even for the company is $568750, for the north region is $320000 and for the south region is $80000.

Denny Corporation is considering replacing a technologically obsolete machine with a new state-of-the-art numerically controlled
inn [45]

Answer:

26.4%.

Explanation:

Net Profit:

= Saving of Labor & other Costs - Maintenance Cost of Machine -  Depreciation On Machine (100,000/ 16 years)

= $40,000 - $10,000 - $6,250

= $23,750

Initial Investment:

= Cost of new Machine - Salvage value of old machine

= $100,000 - $10,000

= $90,000

Simple Rate of Return = Net Profit ÷ Initial Investments

= $23,750 ÷ $90,000

= 0.264 × 100

= 26.4%

anygoal [31]

Answer:

Effect on income= -$49,500

They lost the positive contribution margin increased by the fixed costs. Veronica is wrong.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Veronica made the following presentation to Dunn's board of directors and suggested the Percy Division be eliminated. "If the Percy Division is eliminated," she said, "our total profits would increase by $25,500.

Percy Division

Sales= $100,000

Cost of goods sold= 76,000

Gross profit= 24,000

Operating expenses= 49,500

Net income= (25,500)

In the Percy Division, the cost of goods sold is $59,000 variable and $17,000 fixed, and operating expenses are $29,000 variable and $20,500 fixed.

None of the Percy Division's fixed costs are avoidable.

Effect on income= -contribution margin - fixed costs

Effect on income= -(100,000 - 88,000) - 37,500= -$49,500

They lost the positive contribution margin increased by the fixed costs.

What experiences have led you to choose a certain career?
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

From a personal experience they're a lot of moments in my life that led up to my decision to choose my career. From being constantly told that I was really good at something and that I was made for this certain career path, and just influences from others who are in the same work I am in and how good they were at their job and inspiring me to be just like them. All of those together helped influence me to choose the career that I am now working hard everyday to make sure I achieve success in.

Hope this helps.
