Answer:
10.38%
Explanation:
The formula to compute the effective annual rate of the loan is shown below:
= (1 + nominal interest rate ÷ periods)^ number of period - 1
The nominal interest rate is shown below:
= $250 × 4 ÷ $10,000
= $1,000 ÷ $10,000
= 0.1
Now the effective annual rate is
= (1 + 0.1 ÷ 4)^4 - 1
= (1 + 0.025)^4 - 1
= 1.025^4 - 1
= 10.38%
Since the interest rate is measured on a quarterly basis, we know there are four quarters in a year and we do the same in the calculation part.
This is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options
Answer:
B. Kim will win, because the bonus is a reward for work they have already performed, which is past consideration and cannot be used to create a contract.
Explanation:
In order for a contract to be enforceable, consideration must be exchanged between both parties. In this case, Kim made a promise that included consideration ($3,500) but Gold didn't exchange of give anything back. The swimming pool is already finished and it represents another different contract.
Another example would be a boss telling a subordinate that he/she will receive a bonus for having worked 10 years in the firm. The employee already got paid for working the 10 years, so there is no actual exchange of new consideration.
Answer:
Cost of completed units = $158,240
Explanation:
<em>Cost of completed units = Cost per equivalent unit × no of units</em>
<em>Equivalent unit = Degree of completion × units of work</em>
<em>Equivalent units of material</em>
( 9200× 100%) + (3000×100%) = 12,200 unit
Cost per equivalent unit of material = $97,600/12,200 units= $8
<em>Equivalent units of labour and overhead</em>
(9200× 100%) + (3000× 25%) = 750
Cost per equivalent unit of labour and overhead
=( 73,630+17910)/9950
=$9.2
Cost of completed units
= $(9.2+8)× 9,200 = 158,240
Cost of completed units = $158,240
Answer:
1. False
2. False
3. False
4. True
5. True
Explanation:
1.
Sarbanes-Oxley Act was a federal law that was established by congress to sweep auditing and financial statements for public companies. The main aim for this was to improve the investor confidence by improving reliability in accounting statements. Errors in the financial statements for the public companies were to be minimized following this law especially in the wake of numerous cases of corporate crime. This law was never passed to ensure that investors only invest in companies that will be profitable, since the choice of which company to invest in is exclusively left to the investor. So the above statement is false.
2.
Ethics can be defined as a set of rules and regulation that govern the moral behavior of someone. Ethical standards vary from one region to another since they are majorly cultural, for example; a behavior in the United States can be considered as appropriate while the same behavior in a different place can be inappropriate. Ethical standards are either right or wrong, and the actions are judged on these terms. Ethics don't measure whether a actions are loyal or disloyal, thus the statement is false.
3.
The primary accounting standard setting body in the United States is Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB). This body is charged with regulating and setting the best standard of accounting practice. The FASB usually constitutes a board whose officials are rigorously assessed. The board members have to be professionals in the field of accounting. Securities and Exchange Commission on the other hand is an independent federal agency with the authority to enforce federal security laws. Thus the statement above is false.
4.
The historical cost principle suggests that the companies record assets cost at their original cost and continue to report them at their original cost over the time the asset is held. The historical cost principle is a generally accepted accounting principle that has been in use for a long time. The definition about the historical cost principle in the question above is therefor true.
5.
The monetary unit assumption dictates that business related activities be converted to monetary units. There are some business transactions that are however quite difficult to convert into monetary units, therefor the accountant in using this principle is only obliged to record only the transactions that can be measured in money terms. The statement about monetary units in the question above is thus true.
