Answer:
I think letter A is the right answer
Answer:
Option (B) is correct.
Explanation:
Interest accrued for 6 months (January 1 to July 1):
= $1,000 × 6% × (6 ÷ 12)
= $30
This shall be credited to interest revenue as this is the income of the investor.
Sale value of investment:
= Bond selling price on July 1 + Interest accrued for 6 months
= $1,200 + $30
= $1,230
Gain on sale of investment:
= (Selling price - Purchase price) - Accrued interest
= ($1,230 - $1,000) - $30
= $200
Therefore, the Journal entry for this transaction is as follows:
Cash A/c Dr. $1,230
To debt investments $1,000
To Gain on sale of investment $200
To Interest revenue $30
(To record the cash proceeds at the time the bond is sold)
I would say wages expense should be placed under labour expenses and it is important to remember that though labour is an expense it is also the main source of revenue since it it the workers ie the ones who run the machines that really create wealth.
