Hi!
<em>Option C is correct.</em>
<em></em>
Explanation of the choices:
A. - This seems a good choice, however it's not the best choice. Let's come back to it.
B. - This is the best choice because they get to experience first-hand how to manage and make their own money decisions. Choice A might seem good at first, but we can see this is better because they get to make their own decisions and experience hands-on how to do it.
C - This is not a good choice, because it's best to expose children early so they can grow up knowing how to do it.
D - This choice doesn't make sense. What is the point of money if you store it away and don't spend it? This will likely not be a good lesson in the future.
Hope this helps! :D
Answer:
b. Buy £1,000,000 forward for $1.50/£.
Explanation:
Let's say for instance, we agree to make purchase of €1,000,000 and then forward for $1.50/€ and we assume that the price turns out to become $1.62/€ in three months time, the expected profit will be $12,000 = €1,000,000 ($1.62 - $1.50)As we can see, answer d looks convincing from an accounting standpoint, but it is wrong because the question asks us to make money with a forward contract, not by holding a particular spot. The correct option should be option b.
GDP is designed to assess the production of goods in a market economy by output. However, it is not efficient in accounting for public and private services that without output that are easily countable by the number of units produced. GDP is not also well suited in measuring improvements in the diversity and quality of goods and
services. It is also poor in estimating the depletion of resources. Finally, it doesn't also reflect the degradation
of the environment involved in the production process.
Answer:
1. $550,000
Explanation:
1. It is given in the question that the stated interest rate and the market interest rate both are having the same rate, i.e, 12%.
Hence, the bonds are issued at the face value that is $550,000.
2. The Journal entries are as follows:
(i) On January 1,
Cash A/c Dr. $550,000
To bonds payable $550,000
(To record the bond issuance)
(ii) On December 31,
Interest Expense A/c Dr. $66,000
To cash A/c $66,000
(To record the first interest payment on December 31 assuming no interest has been accrued earlier in the year)
Workings:
Interest expense = $550,000 × 12%
= $66,000
