2 answers:

The answer is C) Both A and B

When a town issues bonds, it is issuing an IOU with interest, usually to help fund projects (such as roads or bridges) or to provide a public service.

Keep in mind that the town is saving money for residents only if it is the residents of the town who purchase the bonds. These bonds enable the residents to earn a return on their savings, since they are entitled to be paid back by the town with interest at a predetermined date.

gavmur [86]

Answer:

wages expense 1,300 debit

wages payable 1,300 credit

--------------------------------

interest expense 200 debit

interest payable 200 credit

--------------------------------

account receivable 2,400 debit

service revenue 2,400 credit

----------------------------------

Explanation:

we recognize the wages expense for the current period and the liability that arise from that.

interest: principal x rate x time

time and rate should be in the same metric so we express the time in portion of a year.

From July 1st to July 31th a month has past so 1/12 of a year:

20,000 x 12% x 1/12 = 200

this will be the accrued interest for the period

we must record service revenue. As it is not collected it goes int oaccount receivable

In your own words. Why is it important to the business to motivate employees?..

Alexeev081 [22]

This is mainly opinionated, and since I'm young I may be wrong.

I say it's good to motivate them because then they will do a better job at their task and will make you seem like a good boss/person, especially if it's a decent pay that will keep them being able to live. With the motivation, they might even remember more things (Such as: If you work at a gas station, you remember to upsell people when a deal is going on, whereas unmotivated people forget or just don't want to do it and be lazy). It's the same effect of giving a kid a piece of candy for being good, doing chores, or getting a harder question right.
