<span>Put all of these numbers in a line...obviously, don't put ALL of them, but enough so you can see what you're doing. 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 297,624,985 Now put all these numbers BACKWARDS underneath that. 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 297,624,985 297,624,985 + 297,624,984 + 297,624,983 + ... + 1 Now add the first series to the second, and you'll see that they add up to: 297,624,986 + 297,624,986 + 297,624,986 + ...297,624,986 Since there were 297,624,985 terms, the total sum here is 297,624,986 * 297,624,985 But since you added it twice, you divide it by two: 148,812,493 * 297,624,985 This is 44,290,315,996,937,605, so...yes, it is MUCH larger.</span>

Anthony Inc. reported net income of $270,000. Beginning balances in Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable were $17,000 and $2
Natalka [10]

Answer:

$268,500

Explanation:

When you use the indirect method to calculate net cash flows, you start with net income and then adjust it by:

  • adding the amount by which accounts receivable decreased = ($17,000 - $10,500) = $6,500
  • deducting the amount by which accounts payable increases = ($21,000 - $29,000) = -$8,000

net cash flow from operating activities = $270,000 + $6,500 - $8,000 = $268,500

Union Local School District has bonds outstanding with a coupon rate of 3.1 percent paid semiannually and 22 years to maturity.
arlik [135]

Answer:

The price of the bond is $9,537.91

Explanation:

Coupon payment = $10,000 x 3.1 = $310 / 2  = $155

Number of period = n = 22 x 2 = 44 semiannual periods

Face Value = $10,000

Yield to maturity = 3.4% yearly = 3.4% /2 = 1.7% semiannually

Price of bond is the present value of future cash flows, to calculate Price of the bond use following formula:

Price of the Bond = C x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n ) / r ] + [ F / ( 1 + r )^n ]

Price of the Bond =$155 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 1.7% )^-44 ) / 1.7% ] + [ $10,000 / ( 1 + 1.7% )^44 ]

Price of the Bond = $155 x [ ( 1 - ( 1.017 )^-44 ) / 0.017 ] + [ $10,000 / ( 1.017 )^44 ]

Price of the Bond = $4,774.94 + $4,762.97

Price of the Bond = $9,537.91
