Answer:

Debit Depreciation Expense, $960; Credit Accumulated Depreciation, $960.

Explanation:

Depreciation is an expense recorded in the income statement. An expense account is created to record annual depreciation in a given year. Since depreciation is an expense, an increase is captured by debiting the account.

Dimas [21]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

In December 2016, Ashton budgeted 2017 assembly-support costs to be $8,300,000 and 2017 direct labor-hours to be 166,000.

With this information, we can calculate the budgeted indirect cost rate. However, we can't calculate the actual indirect cost rate. I will provide the formula for both and a small example of the actual indirect cost rate.

To calculate the budgeted indirect cost rate, we need to use the following formula:

Budgeted indirect cost rate= total estimated indirect costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Budgeted indirect cost rate= 8,300,000/166,000= $50 per direct labor hour.

Let's suppose that actual indirect cost was of 8,000,000 and actual direct labor hours of 175,000:

Actual indirect cost rate= total actual indirect costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Actual indirect cost rate= 8,000,000/175,000= $45.71 per direct labor hour

34kurt

Answer:

cash 595,900 debit

bonds payable 590,000 credit

premium on bonds 5,900 credit

Explanation:

We have to record the issuance of the bonds:

cash proceeds:

face value x quote:

590,000 x 101/100 = 595,900

face value (590,000)

premium 5,900

There is a premium as we are receiving more than we are going to pay at maturity.

We will debit the cash proceeds form the bond

and credit the bonds and premium

What happens to the price of a three-year annual coupon paying bond with an 8% coupon when interest rates change from 8% to 6.85

ruslelena [56]

Face Value of bond = $1000

Annual Coupon Payment = $1000*8%

= $80

No of years to maturity(n) = 3 years

When the Market Interest rate was 8%, the Price of the bond will be the same as the Par value which is $1000 because when the Coupon rate and Market Interest rate are the same the Bond sells at par Value.

So, At an 8% Interest rate price is $1000

- Interest rate(YTM) changed to 8.86%

Calculating the Price of Bond:-

Price = \frac{CouponPayment}{(1+YTM)^{1}}+\frac{CouponPayment}{(1+YTM)^{2}}+...+\frac{CouponPayment}{(1+YTM)^{n}}+\frac{FaceValue}{(1+YTM)^{n}}

Price = \frac{80}{(1+0.0886)^{1}}+\frac{80}{(1+0.0886)^{2}}+\frac{80}{(1+0.0886)^{3}}+\frac{1000}{(1+0.0886)^{3}}

Price =$203.008 + $775.166

Price = $978.17

So, when the Interest rate changed to 8.86% the price falls to $978.17

Change in Price due to increase in Interest rate = $978.17 - $1000

= -$21.83

Hence, the price decreased by $21.83
