Answer: B. a 2 point capital gain

Explanation:

Municipal Bonds have to be amortized using the straight-line method and this applied to both newly issued or bonds being traded at a premium.

The bond in question is trading at 105 and so has a 5 point premium which needs to be amortized at 1 point a year for 5 years. As it was bought after two years, the amortization was 2 points which means the cost of the bond should be;

105 - 2 = 103

Yet it was sold for 105. The gain is therefore

= 105 - 103

= 2 point capital gain

A sale transaction closes on April 15th. The day of closing belongs to the seller. Real estate taxes for the year, not yet bille
Rasek [7]

Answer:

$607

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Date of closing of sales transaction = April 15

Expected tax for the year = $2,110

Number of days in an year = 365

Now,

Per day tax = [ Expected tax for the year ] ÷ [ 365 ]

= $2,110 ÷ 365

= $5.781 per day

Time period from January 1 to April 15 in days = 105 days

Therefore,

The seller's share of the tax bill

= Per day tax × Time period from January 1 to April 15 in days

= $5.781 × 105

= $606.98 ≈ $607

Aneli [31]

Answer:

Need not make any special disclosure

Explanation:

The reason is that it is not a parent-subsidiary transaction which means if the group as a whole trade with each other then they must add a special disclosure in the financial statement otherwise it must be neglected. The company must not specially disclose small borrowings from the lenders when it is presenting that figure in the financial statement borrowing figures. If the transaction is between the group or the borrowings are prominent it must be disclosed separately in the note to financial statement.

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Budgeted overhead= $2,877.6

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

<u>Direct labor required:</u>

Production= 870 units

Direct labor hours= 870*0.25= 218 hours

Direct labor cost= $12 an hour

Manufacturing overhead is applied at a rate of 110% of direct labor costs.

<u>To calculate the allocated overhead for the period, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Direct labor cost= 218*12= $2,616

Allocated MOH= 1.1*2,616= $2,877.6

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

A. To keep banks with falling asset values solvent.

Explanation:

When a bank is failing it will result in loss of funds not only for the bank but also for customers that have accounts in these banks.

If a bank eventually closes operations as a result of insolvency, they will not be able to pay off the customers. That is where the deposit insurance comes in to settle customers.

The government will have to spend a lot of money reimbursing customers their money.

To avoid this the federal government ensures the capital of banks is maintained to keep banks with falling asset values solvent.
