Answer:

She will report an interest income of $1,827 for this year.

Explanation:

The yield to maturity is 6%. However, the interest on the bond is compounded semi-annually. Therefore, we need to calculate the interest income for either semi-annual period and then sum the two incomes.  

Interest income for first semi-annual period

= $30,000 x 0.06 x 6/12

= $900

Interest income for second semi-annual period

= ($30,000 + $900) x 0.06 x 6/12

= $30,900 x 0.06 x 6/12

= $927

Interest income for the year

= $900 + $927

= $ 1,827

Answer:

The interest that would be reported this year is $1827

Explanation:

The interest on loan for the first six months is calculated thus:

$30000*6%*6months/12months=$900

Thereafter, the next six month interest would be based on the initial investment and the interest earned in the first six months since the interest is compounded interest.In other words, interest is paid on initial investment and also on the interest earned by the initial investment

($30000+$900)*6%*6months/12months=$927

The total interest earned the investment in the first year is $900+$927=$1827

Dr depreciation expense $5720

Cr Accumulated depreciation               $5720

2017 Depreciation

Dr depreciation expense $5720

Cr Accumulated depreciation               $5720

Journal entries for 2018 expenditure

Dr repairs and maintenance   $2900

Dr Equipment account             $11850

Cr Cash account                                          $14750

2018 Depreciation

Dr depreciation expense          $4800.83

Cr Accumulated depreciation                     $4800.83

Explanation:

There are two policies for depreciating non-current asset  especially when it is acquired part-way through the year like we have here, namely full year depreciation in the year of purchase and none in the year of disposal or proportional depreciation throughout the useful life,I am adopting the former in this question.

Formula for depreciation=cost-residual value/useful life

Yearly depreciation is ($57200-$0)/10=$5720

However,after two years the book value is calculated thus:

Book value=$57200-($5720*2)=$45760

additional cost incurred in enhancing the capacity of the asset would be added :  $45760 +$11,850=$57610

Since the useful life has also been reviewed up to 12 years, the depreciation from now on is $57610/12=$4800.83

Raul wants to join the directors of World Trade but currently owns no shares in the company. He knows that no one else will help
erica [24]

Answer:

$294,412.8

Explanation:

In order to obtain a seat on the board of directors, Raul must hold more than 50 percent of the total number of outstanding shares if there are three open seats and straight voting occurs.

Total number of shares required = (46,000 ÷ 2) + 1

= 23000 + 1

= 23,001 shares

Market price of share = $ 12.80

Total amount = Total number of shares required × Market price of share

= 23,001 × $ 12.80

= $294,412.8

The amount Raul wants to invest on obtaining a seat on board of directors is $294,412.8
