Answer:

Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Suppose you just bought an annuity with 9 annual payments of $15,400 at the current interest rate of 11 percent per year.

First, we need to determine the final value with the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

Then, we can calculate the present value with the following formula:

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

A)i=11%

FV= {15400*[(1.11^9)-1]}/0.11

FV= $218,125.17

PV= 218,125.17/(1.11^9)= $85,270.53

B) i= 6%

FV= {15400*[(1.06^9)-1]}/0.06

FV= $176,966.27

PV= 176,966.27/(1.06^9)= $104,746.06

C) i= 16%

FV= $269,785.02

PV= $70,940.77

A borrower is unsure whether to go with a fixed rate or adjustable rate loan. what kind of questions would you ask to help them
katovenus [111]
I would ask them if they were comfortable with a fluctuating rate, which though at the moment is lower than the fixed rate, could go up in the future. I would also ask them if they needed to be sure of the rate say for example for a 5 year term like in a mortgage for peace of mind or if they are willing to take a risk with the fluctuations. If the latter, I would tell them that at any time they could lock it in for a 5 year term if they saw it going up.

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The amount of amortization expense each year is $500,000.

Explanation:

This can be calculated as follows:

Patent original cost = $3,000,000

Salvage value after 5 years = $500,000

Number of years to use before selling it = 5 years

Therefore, we have:

Annual amortization expense = (Patent original cost - Salvage value after 5 years) / Number of years to use before selling it = ($3,000,000 - $500,000) / 5 = $500,000

Therefore, the amount of amortization expense each year is $500,000.

On January 1, Skills Company purchased as a short-term investment a $1,000, 6% bondfor $1,000. The bond pays interest on January
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Interest accrued for 6 months (January 1 to July 1):

= $1,000 × 6% × (6 ÷ 12)

= $30

This shall be credited to interest revenue as this is the income of the investor.

Sale value of investment:

= Bond selling price on July 1 + Interest accrued for 6 months

= $1,200 + $30

= $1,230

Gain on sale of investment:

= (Selling price - Purchase price) - Accrued interest

= ($1,230 - $1,000) - $30

= $200

Therefore, the Journal entry for this transaction is as follows:

Cash A/c                 Dr. $1,230

To debt investments                  $1,000

To Gain on sale of investment  $200

To Interest revenue                   $30

(To record the cash proceeds at the time the bond is sold)

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

D. Debiting Wage Expense for $1,080 and crediting Wages Payable for $1,080.

Explanation:

Salary Calculation for three employees for one day = $ 600 + $ 600 + $ 600/5= 1800/5= $ 360

Salary for 3 days for 3 workers= $ 360 * 3= $ 1080

Adjusting Entry would be recognizing the expense and liability for the payment of wages.

So

Wages expense will be debited  with $ 1080

And wages payable would be credited with $ 1080
