Answer:

credit to Cash Overage for $5,500.

Explanation:

When sales are made and cash is received, the normal entries to be passed are a debit to cash and a corresponding credit to sales revenue to recognise the revenue earned from sales.

However when there is an overage in cash the excess funds are moved to an overage account pending resolution of the discrepancy. When the error is identified reversal entries are passed to assign finds to correct source. If however the error cannot be detected the amount is considered an income.

The overage in this case is 126,000- 120,500= $5,500

So the entry to be passed is

Credit Cash Overage $5,500

Note Cash Overage is an income account.

Madrid Company plans to issue 9% bonds with a par value of $5,300,000. The company sells $4,770,000 of the bonds at par on Janua
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer and Explanation:

The journal entry are as follows

1. Interest expense $214,650

       To Cash $214,650

(Being the first interest payment is recorded)

The computation is shown below

= $4,770,000 × 9%  × 6 months ÷ 12 months

= $214,650

For recording this we debited the interest expense as it increased the expenses while on the other hand the cash is paid which reduced the cash balance so it is credited

2. Cash $530,000

      To Bond payable $530,000

(Being the cash sale of bond is recorded)

For recording this we debited the cash as cash is received that increased the cash balance and at the same time we credited the bond payable

Double entry, a fundamental concept underlying present-day bookkeeping and accounting, states that every financial transaction has equal and opposite effects in at least two different accounts. It is used to satisfy the accounting equation:

Assets
=
Liabilities
+
Equity

​
Assets=Liabilities+Equity
​


With a double entry system, credits are offset by debits in a general ledger or T-account.

So debit is the answer

Trava [24]

Answer:

a. $58,800

b. $57,820

Generally, notes are issued on the discounted or face value. It is face value when the price of the note is the same as the face value while it is discounted when the price of the note is lower than the face or par value.

a. Since the note is issued on the face value of $58,800 , it means that the proceed is the same amount. The proceeds from a note that is issued, is that price at which the note is issued.

b. Discount value

= $58,800 × 10% × 60/360

= $980

Proceeds

= Face/par value of the note - Discount value of the note

= $58,800 - $980

= $57,820

scoray [572]

Answer:

<u>Real Property </u>

Explanation:

Capital markets refer to the market which trades in long term securities whose maturity is more than an year.  The instruments traded in capital markets are usually stocks and bonds.

In private equity real estate, public and private investments are pooled together and invested in the real estate property markets. So here the underlying asset whose price fluctuates is property. If property prices soar, the investors stand to gain.

This kind of investment involves high risk but is also capable of generating a higher return as greater the risk involved, greater the return.
