Answer:

investment on bonds   200 millions

premium on bonds         40 millions

                        cash                            240 millions

to record the purchase of bonds

cash                             7 millions

      interest revenue             6 millions

      premium on bonds         1 million

interest proceeds of december 31th

Balance sheet:

bonds      200

premium    39

net            239

cash                                             250 millions

              investment on bonds                         200 millions

              premium on bonds                               39 millions

              gain on sale of invesment                    11   millions

to record the sale of bonds

                       

Explanation:

<u>recording the bonds:</u>

acquisition             240

bonds face value (200)

premium                  40

It is a premium, as the bonds where purchased at higher price than face value

<u>Interest at December 31th</u>

To calculate the interest, we will calcualte the interest per payment:

7% annual coupon rate /2 payment per year = 3.5% semi-annual rate

5% market rate /2 payment per year = 2.5% semi-annual market rate

cash proceeds: 200 x 3.5% = 7

interest revenue:

carrying value x market rate

240 x 2.5% = 6

amortization 7 - 6 = 1

<u>Value in the balance sheet:</u>

the net value of the bond will be the face value plus the carrying value of the premium

<u>Sale of the bonds:</u>

selling price                           250

carrying value of the bonds (239)

gain on sale of bonds              1 1

It is a gain, as the bonds are being sold at a higher price than his carrying value.

Sportly, Inc. completed Job No. B14 during 2011. The job cost sheet listed the following: Direct materials $44,000 Direct labor
Damm [24]

Based on the direct materials, the direct labor, and the manufacturing overhead, the cost of finished goods on hand is $33,600.

<h3>What is the cost of finished goods on hand for this job?</h3><h3 />

Cost of goods on hand is:

= Cost of goods per unit x Number of goods on hand

Cost of goods per unit is:
= (44,000 + 24,000 + 16,000) / 3,000 units

= $28 per unit

Cost of goods on hand:

= 28 x (3,000 - 1,800)

Pete the Pizza Man produced $87,000 worth of pizzas in the past year. He paid $39,000 to employees, paid $11,000 for vegetables
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

$133,000

Explanation:

We can find Pete's total contribution to GDP by adding up the following numbers:

$87,000 worth of pizzas - because finished goods are part of GDP

$39,000 paid to employees - because wages are part of GDP

$5,000 paid in taxes - taxes are part of GDP because they are government revenue

$2,000 of inventories at the end of year - end-of-year inventories are included in GDP

Therefore: $87,000 + $39,000 + $5,000 + $2,000 = $133,000

the $11,000 worth of ingredients are not included in GDP because GDP only accounts for finished goods and services.

Anit [1.1K]

Answer: $17.28

Explanation:

6 month free concession in first year drops rent to:

= 20 / 2

= $10

Effective rent = [Present value of Year 1 rent + Present value of Year 2 rent + Present value of Year 3 rent ] / [ 1 - (1 / (1 + rate)^ number of years) / rate]

= [(10 / (1 + 10%) ) + (21 / (1 + 10%)²) + (22 / (1 + 10%)³)] * [1 - (1 / (1 + 10%)³/ 10%)]

= (9.09 + 17.355 + 16.5289) / 2.48685

= $17.28
