Answer:

Bethesda Biosys

Issue of an IPO:

Net proceeds for the issuer is $82 million, if all the 4 million shares are bought by investors.

Explanation:

a) Calculations:

The spread is $4.5 (18% of $25) per share, since average selling price is $25.

Therefore, the net proceed per share is $20.50 ($25 - 4.50).

And the Total Net Proceeds = $82 million ($20.50 * 4 million), assuming that all four million shares were bought by the public.

Note that the question did not provide the necessary information to make the final decision.

b) During the issue of securities, especially an IPO, underwriters, such as investment banks, pay an issuing company for the securities and then sell the securities to the public.  There is always a difference per share price that they are willing to pay the issuer and what they will collect from the investing public.  That difference is called the underwriting spread or simply the spread.

c) Best-Efforts Basis: According to investopedia.com, underwriting on best-effort basis is "an agreement between an underwriter and an issuer in which the underwriter agrees to place as much of an offering with investors as possible, but is not responsible for any portion of the offering it fails to sell."

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

Debit Depreciation expense $570,000

Credit Accumulated depreciation $570,000

<em>(To record the accumulated depreciation for 3 years)</em>

Explanation:

Using a Straight-line depreciation method, depreciation expense = (Cost - Salvage value)/Estimated useful life

Depreciation expense = $2,090,000 / 11 years = $190,000 yearly

We would assume that the internal auditors detected the error at the beginning of Year 2022, so the accumulated depreciation for 3 years (Jan 2019 - Dec 2021) would be $190,000 x 3 years = $570,000

The following correctional entries will apply:

Debit Fixed asset - Machine $2,090,000

Credit Expense account $2,090,000

<em>(To appropriately record the purchase of machine)</em>

The required adjustment fot the accumulated depreciation is recorded above under the answer section.
