One thing to know is, do they pay their employees or contractors or do they have a bad reputation for paying late or not paying.

Another thing is what are the ethics of the company ie how is its' record on such things as the environment and relations with, say First Nations in the mining industry.

Is it a small company or large and what are the chances of getting promotions?

How is the actual work, is it challenging and interesting?

When you have a clear idea of who you want to work for, it's a serious advantage. You take time to learn about your potential employer, what their operations are, the firm culture, etc. By doing this, you also make sure that the employer meets your personal requirements, matching what you're willing to do.

Even though most corporate bonds in the United States make coupon payments semiannually, bonds issued elsewhere often have annua

Fantom [35]

Answer:

Bond Price = $877.3835955 rounded off to $877.380

Explanation:

To calculate the price of the bond, we need to first calculate the coupon payment per period. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is an annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and r or YTM will be,

Coupon Payment (C) = 0.064 * 1000 = $64

Total periods (n)= 25

r or YTM = 7.5% or 0.075

The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.

Bond Price = 64 * [( 1 - (1+0.075)^-25) / 0.075] + 1000 / (1+0.075)^25

Bond Price = $877.3835955 rounded off to $877.380

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

The amount of Bad Debt Expense reported in 2019 was $16,100.

Explanation:

Our concern is mainly on the allowance for doubtful accounts. Based on the facts given in the question, the opening balance of the allowance account was $79,900 credit balance, while the closing balance was $96,000 credit. Since there were no write-offs or recoveries during 2019, the bad debt expense is simply the difference between the closing balance and the opening balance i.e, $96,000 - $79,900 = $16,100.

The journal entries will be:

Debit Bad debt expense $16,100

Credit Allowance for doubtful account $16,100

A farmer and a meatpacker use the commodity markets to reduce their risk. One agrees to buy live cattle in the future at a fixed

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

A farmer is the one that owns the cattle and is ready to sell it on the market demand, while the meatpacker is the one who buys the product and sells it in different parts to the end consumers.

Since they both are using the commodity market to reduce the risk, the farmer will be the one who agrees to sell the cattle in the future at a fixed rate, while the meatpacker will be the one who agrees to buy the cattle in the future at a specified price fixed by him.

Hope this helps. ThankYou.
