Answer: false

         

Explanation: The four phases of business cycle are as follows :-

1. Expansion

It's the initial step. There's an increase in jobs, profits, output, and revenues whenever the expansion happens. Usually individuals pay on time for their loans. 

2. Peak

The second phase is a peak once, having exceeded the maximum rate of growth, the economic situation hits a nab. Prices have reached their maximum level, and leading indicators have stopped growing.

3. Recession

These would be stagnation phases. Throughout a recession, joblessness is rising, the output is slowing down, revenues are beginning to fall due to a fall in demand, and earnings are stagnating or declining.

4. Depression

Although unemployment is rising and productivity is plummeting, economic development keeps falling.

5. Trough

This period marks the end of the depression, leading an economy into the next step.

6. Recovery

The economy is beginning to turn still at this point. Cheap prices are contributing to such an increase in demand, jobs and development, and borrowers are beginning to expand their lending coffers. This phase signals the end of a period of the business cycle.

Camden Corporations agreed to build a warehouse for a client at an agreed contract price of $ 900,000. Expected (and actual) cos
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Key figures:

2016:

Revenue = $270,000

Expenses = $202,500

Income = $67,500

2017:

Revenue = $450,000

Expenses = $337,500

Income = $112,500

2018:

Revenue = $180,000

Expenses = $135,000

Income = $45,000

Explanation:

Under this method, percentage of work completed is determined using the following <u>formula:</u>

<em>Percentage of work completed = (Total Expenses incurred on the project till the close of the accounting period) ÷ (Total Estimated Cost of the Contract)</em>

Total estimated cost = $202,500 + $337,500 + $135,000 = $675,000

<u>2016:</u>

Percentage of work completed = ($202,500 ÷ $675,000)×100 = 30%

Expenses in 2016 = $202,500 (answer)

Revenue in 2016 = $900,000 × 30% = $270,000 (answer)

Income in 2016 = Revenue - Expenses

Income in 2016 = $270,000 - $202,500

Income in 2016 = $67,500 (answer)

<u>2017:</u>

Percentage of work completed = ($337,500 ÷ $675,000)×100 = 50%

Expenses in 2017 = $337,500 (answer)

Revenue in 2017 = $900,000 × 50% = $450,000 (answer)

Income in 2017 = Revenue - Expenses

Income in 2017 = $450,000 - $337,500

Income in 2017 = $112,500 (answer)

<u>2018:</u>

Percentage of work completed = ($135,000 ÷ $675,000)×100 = 20%

Expenses in 2018 = $135,000 (answer)

Revenue in 2018 = $900,000 × 20% = $180,000 (answer)

Income in 2018 = Revenue - Expenses

Income in 2018 = $180,000 - $135,000

Income in 2018 = $45,000 (answer)

svp [43]

When prototyping new products, most people will want a presentation on what the prototype will look like, the functions, the benefits, how it differs from previous products or other companies' products and the pricing. A management presentation is important because it should help break down all the information needed before approval of the new product is approved.

The following section is taken from Blossom's balance sheet at December 31, 2021. Current liabilities Interest payable $ 40,500
aev [14]

Answer:

(a) Journalize the payment of the bond interest on January 1, 2022.

Dr Interest payable - bonds payable 40,400

    Cr Cash 40,400

The interest expense on the bonds payable should have been accrued on the 2021 balance sheet, that is why we debit interest payable and not interest expense.

(b) Assume that on January 1, 2022, after paying interest, Blossom calls bonds having a face value of $100,000. The call price is 103. Record the redemption of the bonds.

Dr Bonds payable 100,000

Dr Call premium 3,000

    Cr Cash 103,000

(c) Prepare the adjusting entry on December 31, 2022, to accrue the interest on the remaining bonds.

interest expense = $405,000 x 8% = $32,400

Dr Interest expense - bonds payable 32,400

    Cr Interest payable - bonds payable 32,400
