2 Jodi owns 112 shares of stock selling for $16.20. How many more shares can she purchase after receiving a dividend of $0.80 po
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

The number of new shares = 6

Explanation:

Dividend is the proportion of profit paid by a company to its shareholder as a form of return on their investment. Another form of return on share investment is the capital gain; which is the difference between the selling price of a share now and its cost when it was purchased.

<em>For Jodi, we need to first calculate the amount of dividends earned on the total shares she owns. And then divide the result by the current purchase price of a share to arrive at the number of shares she can buy more.</em> This is done as follows:

Total dividends =  112× 0.80 = $89.6

Current price of a share = $16.20

THe number of shares that can be purchased= 89.6/16.20=5.5

The number of new shares = 6

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

cash                   96,535 debit

discount on BP    3,465 debit

          Bonds Payable          100,000 credit

Explanation:

We need to determinate the price at which the bonds were issued:

Which is the present value of the coupon payment and maturity

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\  

Coupon payment: 100,000 x 10% / 2 = 5,000

time 4  (2 years x 2 payment per year)

rate 0.06  (12% annual / 2 = 6% semiannual)

5000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.06)^{-4} }{0.06} = PV\\  

PV $17,325.5281  

 

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity (face value)   $100,000.00  

time   4.00  

rate  0.06

\frac{100000}{(1 + 0.06)^{4} } = PV  

PV   79,209.37  

 

PV c $17,325.5281  

PV m  $79,209.3663  

Total $96,534.8944  

As the bonds are issued below face value there is a discount:

100,000 - 96,535 = 3,465

the entry will recognize the cash procceds and the creation of a liaiblity

we will also use an auxiliar account for the discount on the bonds
