Answer: Yes they did.

Explanation:

Apparent Authority refers to a scenario where a Agent is assumed to have the power to act on behalf of a Principal regardless of if said authority had not being expressly given whether implicitly or otherwise.

It is worthy of note that this power is only valid if the third party in the transaction assumes from the conduct of the agent, that they have such powers to act.

It is stated in the text that there was no question that the brokers had the actual or implied authority to sell the stock meaning that the Principal had not done enough to show that the agents did not have the Authority to act as they did. For this reason, they can indeed be sued under the Principle of Apparent Authority.

Explanation:

The bonds were issued at a discount to their face value, as a result, the discount on bonds payable is computed thus:

discount on bonds payable=$750,000-$710,000=$40,000

Bonds payable would be credited with $750,000 while cash and discount on bonds payable would be debited with $710,000 and $40,000 respectively

annual discount amortization=$40,000/8=$5000

annual coupon=$750,000*6%=$45000
