X Company and Y Company, operating on opposite sides of the country, manufacture equipment that is virtually identical except fo

r a higher grade of metal used by X Company. As a result, the costs and fair values of one piece of equipment to X and Y are: Cost Fair Market Value X Company $ 75,000 $ 105,000 Y Company $ 65,000 $ 91,000 X Company received an order from a customer in Y’s state and Y received an order from a customer in X’s state. In a transaction that lacks commercial substance, to avoid the cost and effort of shipping the equipment across the country, X and Y exchanged equipment and, essentially, X shipped to Y’s customer and vice versa. Due to the difference in metals, however, Y paid X $14,000 in cash.

Answer:

$14,000

Explanation:

Company X                                               Company Y

cost per equipment $75,000                  cost per equipment $65,000

sales price $105,000                                sales price $91,000

Both companies sold one unit and they exchanged clients in order to reduce shipping cost:

company X income = $105,000 (selling price) - $75,000 (COGS) + $14,000 (money received from company Y) = $44,000

company Y's income = $91,000 (selling price) - $65,000 (COGS) - $14,000 (money given to company X) = $12,000

This exchange resulted in company X's income increasing by $14,000, while company Y's income decreased by $14,000

                                   Debit                                         Credit

Cash                            600,000

Bonds payable                                                              600,000

2) If bonds are issued at 95

                                     Debit                                        Credit

Cash                              570,000

Discount                          30,000

Bonds payable                                                               600,000

3) If bonds are issued at 105

Cash                               630,000

Bonds payable                                                                 600,000

Premium                                                                             30,000

4)

                                        Debit                                           Credit

Interest payable                42,000

Cash                                                                                    42,000

Explanation:

1) If the bonds are issued at 100 then the company will receive the same amount of cash as the face value so they will receive 600,000 cash and will owe the bond buyers 600,000 so they will debit 600,000 cash and credit 600,000 bonds payable.

2) If bonds are issued at 95 then the company will receive cash 95% of 600,000 which is 570,000 so they will debit 570,000 cash, 30,000 will debited as discount and 600,000 bonds payable.

3) If bonds are issued at 105 then the company will receive cash 105% of 600,000 which is 630,000 so they will debit 630,000 cash and will credit 600,000 bonds payable and 30,000 as premium.

4) The bonds are issued on January 1 and there is a journal entry of interest payment at July 1 so we assume that the bond has semi annual payments.

14% of 600,000 is 84,000 and we will divide it by 2 to find the semi annual payment which will be 42,000, so we will debit interest payable by 42,000 and credit cash by 42,000.
