dimaraw [331]

Answer:

It would have earned 15.91 dollars of interest

Explanation:

We will calcualte for compounding at each moment:

First, we will calculate for $6,500 for March 1st to March 15th:

Then, from March 16th to march 27th we calculate for $5,000 + accrued interest of the peri

and from March 28th to 31th we calcualte $5,700 + accrued interest

$Principal (1 + \frac{r}{m} )^{n \times m} = Amount$

n = 15/365 days

m = 365

r = 0.0325

$6,500 (1 + \frac{0.0325}{365} )^{15/365 \times 365} = Amount$

6508.69

Then we withdraw 1,500

And we calcualte for hte period marchth to March 27th for the currnet value: 5,008.69

$5,008.69 (1 + \frac{0.0325}{365} )^{11/365 \times 365} = Amount$

Amount: 5,013.60

Then we deposit 700 and calcualte the rest of the month:

$5,713.60 (1 + \frac{0.0325}{365} )^{11/365 \times 365} = Amount$

Amount: 5,715.64

We can now calcualtethe interest earned:

6,508.96 - 6,500 = 8.96

5,013.60 - 5,008.69 = 4.91

5,715.64 - 5,713.60 = 2.04

total interest = 15.91

Kryger [21]

Answer:

The discount is for $86

It will be available until May 16th

Explanation:

the credit terms are 1/15, net 45

the first numebr is the discount amount, 1%

the second number is the days after billing this discount option is active, 15

net 45 means the customer can pay the nominal 8,600 within a 45 days period. After that it should renegociate the bill

The discount will be 8,600 x 1% = 8,600 x 0.01 = 86

It will be available up to 15 days after billing:

May 1st + 15 days = May 16th

Suppose a relative has promised to give you $1,000 as a gift the day you graduate. Assuming a constant interest rate of 5%, cons

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

Date Received Present Value Value in 1 year Value in 2 years

Today 1,000 $1,050 $1,102.50

In 1 year $952.38 $1,000

In 2 years $907.03 $1,000

Future value in 1 year if $1,000 is received today:

= 1,000 * (1 + 5%)

= $1,050

Future value in 2 years:

= 1,000 * ( 1 + 5%)²

= $‭1,102.5‬

Present value if $1,000 received in a year:

= 1,000/(1 + 5%)

= $952.38

If received in 2 years:

= 1,000 / (1 + 5%)²

= $907.03

b. The present value of the gift is <u>smaller</u> if you get engaged in two years than it is if you get engaged in one year.

Answer:

Depreciation expense - year 3 = $5184

Accumulated depreciation - Year 3 = 23040 + 5184 = $28224

Explanation:

The Financial reporting standards state that the cost of a fixed asset should include the purchase cost and all the costs necessary to bring the asset to the place and in the condition necessary for its use as intended by the management. Thus, the transportation cost will be capitalized as in FOB Shipping Point, the buyer pays for the transportation.

Cost of office equipment = 34000 + 2000 = $36000

Th double declining balance method is an accelerated method to charge depreciation in which higher depreciation is charged in the initial years and lower in the later years.

The formula for depreciation expense under this method is,

Depreciation expense = 2 * [(Asset cost - Accumulated depreciation)/Estimated useful life of the asset]

Depreciation expense - year 1= 2 * [(36000 - 0) / 5

Depreciation expense - year 1 = $14400

Depreciation expense - year 2 = 2 * [(36000 - 14400) / 5]

Depreciation expense - year 2 = $8640

Accumulated depreciation - year 2 = 14400 + 8640 = 23040

Depreciation expense - year 3 = 2 * [(36000 - 23040) / 5]

Depreciation expense - year 3 = $5184

Accumulated depreciation - Year 3 = 23040 + 5184 = $28224
