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).

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Explanation:

The computation of the interest capitalized is as follows:

= Accumulated expenditure × rate of interest

= ($610,000 × 12 months ÷ 12 months) + ($1,800,000 × 4 months ÷ 12 months) + 0 × 13%

Contribution margin is calculated via subtracting the variable cost per unit to the sales price per unit. In equation, we have

Contribution margin = Sales Price - Variable Cost

Contribution margin ratio is calculated via dividing the contribution margin with the sales price. In equation, we have

Contribution margin ratio = contribution margin/sales price

Substituting the given values,
Contribution margin ratio for 65$ variable cost = (120-65)/120 = 0.4583 
Contribution margin ratio for 58$ variable cost = (120-58)/120 = 0.5167

<em>ANSWERS: 0.4583 or 45.83% and 0.5167 or 51.67%</em>
