inessss [21]

Answer:

Here we need to find the length of an annuity. We know the interest rate, the PV, and the payments. Using the PVA equation:

PVA =C({1 – [1/(1 +r)t]} /r)

$14,500 = $500{[1 – (1/1.0155)t] / 0.0155}

Now we solve for t:

1/1.0155t = 1 − {[($14,500)/($500)](0.0155)}

1/1.0155t= 0.5505

1.0155t= 1/(0.5505) = 1.817

t = ln 1.817 / ln 1.0155 = 38.83 months

<u>Account will be paid off in 38.83 months.</u>

Rick Co. had 30 million shares of $1 par common stock outstanding at January 1, 2021. In October 2021, Rick Co.'s Board of Direc
Bond [772]

Answer:

Debit retained earnings for $15.30 million.

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

Declaration of common stock dividend indicates no cash payments, only extra shares issued with rate of stock dividend

In this Rick Co. had 30 million shares and Rick Co. declared 1% stock dividend  

which means 30 million × 1% = 0.30 million shares issued

Retained earning = (0.30 million × $51)  

= $15.30 million

To common stock A/c =  (0.30 × $1) = $0.30 million

To capital paid in access A/c = (0.30 million × ($51-$1)) =  $15.00 million

( Being stock dividend was issued at 1% )

Hence, Option (d) Debit retained earning for $15.30 million is correct.
