The necessary adjusting entry to record inventory shortage would be:

“Cost of Merchandise Sold debit $5,000; Merchandise Inventory credit $5,000.”

Cost of Merchandise Sold is the cost of goods and services that correspond to sales made to customers. In this case, we need to decrease ending inventory by the quantity of these goods ($5,000) that either were shipped to customers or assigned as being customer-owned under a certain agreement. Meanwhile, the merchandise inventory is the cost of goods on hand and is available for sale ($5,000).

a 12oupon bond, semiannual payments, is callable in 3 years. the call price is $1,120; if the bond is selling today for $1,110,
charle [14.2K]

Based on the coupon rate, the call price and the selling price, the yield to call is 11.06%.

<h3>How is the yield to call found?</h3>

The formula to find it is:

= (Coupon + (Call price - Current price) / Number of periods ) / ( (Call price + Current price) / 2 ) x 2

Solving gives:

=( (12%/2  x 1,000) + (1,120 - 1,110) / 6 semi annual periods ) ) / ( (1,120 + 1,110) / 2) x 2

= (61.667 / 1,115) x 2

= 11.06%
