Answer:

The loss is $63,000.

Explanation:

The loss on the retirement of bond is the difference between the retirement value of the bond and the book value of the bond. It is calculated as follows.

Calculation of loss on retirement of bond:

Retirement value of bonds ($1,000,000 x 102 / 100)          $1,020,000

Interest payment ($1,000,000 x 10% x 6/12)                        $50,000

Interest expense ($950,000 x 12% x 6/12)                           $57,000

Amortization of bond discount ($57,000 - $50,000)          $7,000

Debit balance in bond discount ($50,000 - $7,000)           $43,000

Credit balance in accounts payable                                      $1,000,000

Book value of bond ($1,000,000 - $43,000)                        $957,000

Loss on retirement of bond ($1,020,000 - $957,000)       $63,000

1. Think about all of the many products you can purchase today. Identify one product that currently represents each phase of the
olganol [36]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

We can take a Andriod smartphone as one of the product. Definitely, each unique smartphones including both the high and low-end products represent the four distinct stages of product life cycle. The nature of competition, price, distribution and promotion can be differentiated well among different stages of the life cycle.

As far a competition is concerned, at the introduction phase, the competition will be too high. For the high-end phone coming with unique features (i.e. unique value to the customer) will face less severe competition at this time. As the growth phase comes, the uniqueness will disappear as others will also come out with similar features in their features. As a result, the competition will intensify and will reach the maximum at the maturity of the product.

The pricing strategy at different stages will depend upon the generic strategy of the company. At the introduction stage, if the company is having a differentiation strategy, it usually goes for a premium price. Others, having cost leadership strategy will go for low price. Sometimes the low price is kept initially at a very thin or zero margins just to capture the market share. However, for smartphones, this is very difficult. As competition intensifies in growth and maturity, the price falls. This is the fate generally with most of the Andriod smartphones as their features are not inimitable. Huge discounts in price can be observed for smartphones at their decline phase due to obsolescence of technology.

It has become a trend nowadays to initially distribute the smartphones through an online retail partner where the smartphone manufacturer gives an exclusive right to the retail partner to sell the initial lots. The retailer first books the order and then does the transaction. As the product gets publicity and attains its growth, it is sold in other places such as company outlets, bricks-and-mortar retailers, supermarkets, eStores etc. up to the maturity and decline phase.

As in distribution, the promotion becomes huge by the online retail partner at the introduction phase. The smartphone manufacturer also uses direct marketing, imagery, and social media marketing as primary tools at this phase.

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

Increase; fall

Explanation:

Due to the slightly above normal rainfall levels which led to a large black morel harvest, <em>the supply of the commodity will increase</em>.

However, since demand for the commodity is expected to remain the same as it was in 2007 despite the increase in supply, <em>the equilibrium price is expected to fall</em> as supply exceeds demand.

Si hacemos una compra en cuenta corriente ¿ obtenemos un "descuento" en el precio de un objeto o un recargo en el mismo ?
baherus [9]

Answer:

Un recargo, pequeño, en el mismo.

Explanation:

Una cuenta corriente es una cuenta bancaria destinada a depósitos y retiros corrientes, y la utilización de cheques a tales fines. Dado que el uso de cheques como medio de pago ha disminuido a niveles muy bajos, la emisión de cheques ha disminuido y, en ocasiones, se ha abolido por completo. Sin embargo, la cuenta corriente a nombre sobrevive en algunos casos en el habla cotidiana.

El propósito de una cuenta de transacciones es usarse para una gran cantidad de depósitos y retiros. Los términos y condiciones de la cuenta normalmente incluyen el derecho a realizar un número ilimitado de transacciones con los fondos de la cuenta sin ningún tipo de bloqueo u otras medidas de limitación de liquidez. Por otro lado, el banco normalmente ofrece tasas de interés muy bajas o nulas sobre los fondos en circulación.

Hoy en día, la cuenta de transacciones a menudo está vinculada a varias formas de soluciones de banca por Internet para permitir pagos y otras transacciones a través de la computadora del cliente del banco. El banco también suele proporcionar tarjetas de cajero automático o tarjetas de débito a particulares con cuentas de transacciones.
