Answer:  Debit Unearned fees $6,120, Credit Fees income $6,120.

Explanation: Garcia Publishing received $24,480 from Otisco on April 1 and this was recorded as unearned fees. This means Garcia would have debited cash with $24,480 and credited unearned fees $24,480. Remember the fees was paid at the beginning of April and is for 36-month subscriptions. So, the amount in unearned fees would be unwound to income (fees) over the tenor of the subscription (36 months). Therefore, monthly amortization would be $24,480 divided by 36 months = $680. April 1 to December 31 is 9 months, $680 multiplied by 9 months is $6,120.

Four years ago, Bling Diamond, Inc., paid a dividend of $1.73 per share. The firm paid a dividend of $2.36 per share yesterday.
Valentin [98]

Answer:

$2.90 approx

Explanation:

The computation of firm’s cash dividend be in seven years

First we need to find out the

Growth Rate = (Last Dividend ÷ Dividend 4 years ago)^(1 ÷ 4) - 1

= ($2.36 ÷ $1.73)^(1 ÷ 4) - 1

= $1.36^0.35 - 1

=  1.113624092  - 1

= 0.113624092

= 11.36%

Now we calculate for 5 years

Dividend in 5 years = $2.36 × 1.113624092

= $2.628

and Dividend in 7 Years = Dividend in 5 years × (1 + 5%)^2

= $2.628 × 1.05^2

= $2.628 × 1.1025

= $2.90 approx

Which theory would most likely explain why a commercial bank, which usually focuses on short-term securities, would switch to lo
den301095 [7]

Answer:

preferred habitat

Explanation:

According to the preferred habitat theory, if the expected returns from investment of a particular investment maturity is large enough, investors would shift from their preferred maturities.

In this question, there is a shift from the preferred maturity (short-term securities) to a long-term securities when interest rate changes

The pure expectations theory assumes that bonds of any maturity are perfect substitutes for each other. For example, if an investor buys a 10 year bond and holds it for 1 year, the return is the same as buying a 1 year bond. The theory also assumes that risk premium does not exist and a security only earns its risk free rate

Liquidity premium theory states that risk premium increases with the maturity of a bond. The theory predicts that the yield curve is upward sloping due to liquidity premium

According to the segmented market theory, each bond maturity segment can be thought of as a segment market in which yield are a function of the demand and supply for funds in that maturity.

On October 1, Hawking Corp. had 40,000 shares of $2 par value common stock outstanding before it declared a 2-for-1 stock split.
Naily [24]

Answer:

1. After the split, how many shares of common stock are outstanding and what is their par value per share?

40,000 stocks outstanding x 2 = 80,000 stocks outstanding after the stock split

par value of each stock = $2 / 2 = $1

Aren't both questions the same?

2. After the split, the number of shares outstanding is <u>80,000</u> and the par value per share is <u>$1</u>.

Explanation:

When a stock split happens, the total number of outstanding stock is just multiplied by the stock split factor, in this case it was 2, but other times it might be 4 or 7 (like Apple stock). You just multiply total outstanding stock by the split number. On the other hand, par value is calculated by dividing the current par value by the split number.
