On January 1, 2017, Walker Sales issued $19,000 in bonds for $14,300. These are eight-year bonds with a stated rate of 13%,

AysviL [449]

Answer:

$14,887.5

Explanation:

Carrying Value of the bond is the net of Face value and any amortised discount on the bond.

Face Value of the bond = $19,000

Issuance Value = $14,300

Discount Value = $19,000 - $14,300 = $4,700

This Discount will be amortized over the bond's life until the maturity on straight line basis.

Amortization in each period = $4,700 / (8x2) = $293.75 semiannually

Until December 31, 2017 two payment have been made and $587.5 is amortized in the two semiannual periods.

Un-amortized Discount = $4,700 - $587.5 = $4,112.5

Carrying value of the bond = Face value - Un-amortized Discount = $19,000 - $4,112.5 = $14,887.5

A $2,000 cash dividend is planned in 2019. No dividend was paid in 2018. 1,000 shares of 5% cumulative $10 par value preferred s

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

C) $1000

Explanation:

First lets calculate the cumulative preferred stock dividend for 2 years

(1000 * 10 ) * 5% = 500 / year

so for 2 years = $1000 since it is cumulative and not paid in one year is added to next year.

Total dividend payable = $2000

so for common stock whatever is left over is paid thus,

Common stock share = Total - Preferred cumulative = 2000 - 1000 = $1000

Hope that helps.

jekas [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": develop a business plan.

Explanation:

Entrepreneurs who lack funds to start their ventures should develop a business plan so it can be presented to prospective investors who will decide if the venture is of their interest or not. The business plan should include the mission and vision of the business as well as a SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) analysis explaining how the business will mitigate its risks and maximize its benefits.

The business plan should be innovative in Peppy's case since pizzerias are very common, thus, Pepe's Pizzazzeria must have a clear competitive advantage to face competitors.

Jason purchases a patent at a cost of $24,000. The patent has 8 years of legal life remaining from the date of purchase. a. The

mina [271]

Answer: a. The patent is an intangible so it is amortized for cost recovery

Explanation:

Just as Depreciation exists for the wearing and tearing of tangible Assets, so does AMORTIZATION exist for Intangible Assets like goodwill, patents, licenses, copyrights and logos.

It follows essentially the same process as Depreciation and the useful life estimation is usually discretionary because some Intangible Assets can give benefits forever such as logos.

Generally though, only Intangible Assets with estimable useful lives are amortized such as Patents and Trademarks.
