Answer: Will report a liability of $5000 for judgement debt and a claim of $11,000

Explanation:

The liability refers to the obligations of the firm which are certain is going to make payment as compensation.

The $5000 liability, although payment has not been made it's already Incurred by the company under the acural concept.

The claim of $11,000 is only probable and not certain even though amount and time of execution can be estimated, since it's not certain it will only be recorded as a claim in the goverments fund balance sheet.

Answer:

B. Increases the expected present value of lease cash flows to the owner

Explanation:

A lease option gives a right but not the obligation to the renter of the property to buy the said property at today's current market price upon the expiry of lease term.

Lease option is similar to an option contract, the difference being, here instead of securities, leased property serves as the underlying asset and instead of option premium, the renter pays a premium each year in addition to the rental charges.

Lease cash flows refer to the present value of future cash flows which the lessor/owner receives in the form of lease rentals plus the added premium each year.

The more the benefits under lease option clause, the higher the premium charged and thus, more would be the future receipts of owner which would increase the expected present value of lease cash flows to the owner.

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

1.$35,000

2.$6,300,000

Explanation:

The computation of Unit sales to earn the target income and Sales amount at required profit is given below:-

a. Contribution per unit = Unit sale price - Unit variable cost

= $180 - $135

= $45

Unit sales at required profit = (Sales cost + Required cost) ÷ Contribution per unit

= ($562,500 + $1,012,500) ÷ $45

= $1,575,000 ÷ $45

= $35,000

b. Sales amount at required profit = Unit sales at required profit × Unit sale price

= $35,000 × $180

= $6,300,000
