Answer:
$4,697.04
Explanation:
In simple words , this question requires us to find the Future Value in 5 years time. We compound the Present Value using the effective interest rate to determine the Future Value of an investment.
<em>PV = $3,000.00</em>
<em>P/YR = 12</em>
<em>N = 5 x 12 = 60</em>
<em>I = 9 %</em>
<em>PMT = $0</em>
<em>FV = ?</em>
Using a Financial calculator to enter the parameters as above the Future Value (FV) is $4,697.04
therefore,
In 5 years time, you will have $4,697.04.
Answer: 1. Goodwill
2. a. Record no entry in the books
b. Record a loss in the books
Explanation:
1. The Special asset created by Heartland Telecom's acquisition of Surety Wireless is Goodwill.
Goodwill is the difference between what the company was worth and what it was purchased for if the purchase price was higher than the worth (market value).
2. a. Goodwill should be accounted for by recoding it in the Long term Assets under Intangible Assets in the balance sheet. It should not be amotrized. If Goodwill increases, there should be no recording this <u>gain</u> on the books.
b. If the value of the asset has decreased, Heartland should record a loss in the books to represent the loss on this account.
