Answer:
The price of the bond is 2143,67
Explanation:
A zero coupon bond is a bond that does not pay coupon payments and instead pays one lump sum at maturity.
Zero coupon bond value= F/(1+r)^t
F = face value or a par value
r= rate of yield per period
t= time to maturity ( in periods)
Replacing
F = $10,000
We assume semiannual compounding periods
r= 5.2/2=2.6
t= 30 x 2=60
Zero coupon bond value= $10,000/(1+0.026)^60
Value = 2143,67
You cannot compute for the capital in excess of par since you don’t have the number of shares but let us assume there are 100,000 shares.
If the Company sell 100,000 shares of its common stock for $2 per share, and the par value of each share is $5, then the amount of the capital in excess of par is 100,000 shares x $3/share, = 300,000 and is recorded:
Cash 500,000
Common stock ($2 x 100000) 200000
Additional Paid-In Capital($3 x 100000) 300000
Answer:
Allison should record the purchase at $5880
Explanation:
The net method for recording purchases implies that the purchases is recorded net of the envisaged cash discount on the transaction since the purchaser believes they would settle their account before the cash discount period expires.
Based on the above, the purchases would be recorded as shown below:
cost of purchase=original purchase value*(100%-discount rate)
original purchase price is $6,000
discount rate is 2%
cost of purchase=$6000*(100%-2%)
=$6000*98%
=$5880
