To find the least common denominator, or lcd, you have to find the least common multiple, or lcm. To do that you find the multiples of each number until they equal each other. I set up a chart like this,

6 -

8 -

and then I start listing multiples so,

6 - 6, 12, 18, 24,

8 - 8, 16, 24,

I stop after I find a number they are both equal to. So to get to that number I would multiply 8 by 3, and 6 by 4. This gives me 24 as the lcd. If you need the lcd to add the fractions together, then whatever you did to the bottom do to the top. So 5/6 would become 20/24 and 3/8 would become 9/24.


Answer: 24

melomori [17]

Answer:

The Parry Glitter Company

The Parry Glitter Company should record the Notes Receivable as $300,000.

It should also record the interest receivable per year as $24,000 and the advertising cost as $24,000 per year.  These bring into the accounting records the interest revenue and also the advertising expense, which eventually cancel each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Notes Receivable = $300,000

If the notes receivable are repaid at the end of 3 years and it is assumed that the interest on the notes receivable = 8%

Therefore, the cost of the free advertising will be equal to $24,000 ($300,000 * 8%), which is the cost of the interest to the radio station.
