Answer:

$15000

Explanation:

All types of bonds have some common characteristics which include;

- A face/par value

- A coupon rate (interest rate).

- Either redeemable/irredeemable or convertible.

The face value of one bond is $1000 so the total value of 300 bonds would be $300,000 (300×$1000). In this example these are redeemable bonds which means Whitefeather Industries would be liable to payback the capital amount of bonds after five years (maturity date).

The coupon rate (i.e interest) is charged on Par value. So the Interest can be calculated as $300,000×10% = $30,000 per year.

In this question interest is payable semi-annually, therefore The amount of interest that occurs on December 31, 2017 is $15000 (For the last six months - July 1st till Dec 31st; $30000×6÷12).

REY [17]

Answer:

A. Contractionary fiscal policy

B. Left

Explanation:

When the economy is growing too fast and the inflation is high, Contractionary fiscal policy should be pursued. Contractionary fiscal policy entails either government increasing tax or reducing its spending or both.

When taxed are increased, the household disposable income will be reduced, households will have lesser money to spend and also the business profit will be reduced and this will lead to reduced investments. This policy will relax the aggregate demand and ultimately the interest rate.

Since the aggregate demand will reduce after pursuing this policy, aggregate demand will shift to the left

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

B) ​money.

Explanation:

Characteristics of a negotiable instrument

  1. Property: the individual or company that possesses the instrument is also considered its owner. Order instruments, e.g. checks, must be endorsed for transfer of property.
  2. Title: the person that receives title of the instrument is called a transferee and is the holder in due course.
  3. Rights: the transferee can take legal action to claim the honoring of the instrument.
  4. Prompt payment: the due holder can anticipate prompt payment because dishonoring the instrument (not paying it) results in the "ruin of credit" of all parties involved in the instrument.
  5. Monetary value: instruments carry a specific monetary value and must be paid in money.

Katen [24]

Answer:

$165,670

Explanation:

Cost of goods sold = Sales revenue (1 - Gross profit)

                                = $669,900 × (1 - 0.30)

                                = $669,900 × 0.70

                                = $468,930

Estimated ending inventory destroyed in fire:

= Beginning inventory + Purchase - cost of goods sold

= $160,600 + $474,000 - $468,930

= $165,670
