I think that Tricia should record the action by entering it in, in a log/journal system or keep her recite.
Answer:
b. $358,500
Explanation:
Given;
Retained Earnings at December 31, 2018 = $300,000
In 2019,
Revenue = $600,000
Expenses = $525,000
Declared and paid dividends = $16,500
Retained earnings on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2019
= $300,000 + $600,000 - $525,000 - $16,500
= $358,500
The right option is b. $358,500
Answer:
Issuance of bonds is a cash inflow
Payment of interest is a cash outflow
Explanation:
The issue of the bond at $200,000 face value would be a cash inflow under the financing activities of the cash flow when issued since more cash was received from the bondholders.
However,the payment of bond interest of $10,000 yearly is a cash outflow under the financing activities section of the statement of cash flows,since Norton Corporation would be parting with the amount on yearly basis till the bonds are retired.
Answer:
A Bond's current market value represented by
is the present value of a bond as on today. Present value of a bond is it's future cash flows in the form of coupon payments and principal repayment discounted at investor's expectation in the market also referred to as Yield to maturity(YTM).
Present value of a bond is given by the following equation,

where C= Annual coupon payments
YTM = Yield to maturity/ cost of debt/ market rate of return on similarly priced bonds
RV = Redemption value of bond
n = number of years to maturity
<u>a. A bond's coupon rate is higher than it's yield to maturity, then the bond will sell for more than face value.</u>
Hence, if the company pays more interest than what is paid in the market on similarly priced bonds, such bonds shall sell at more than their face value.
<u>b. If a bond's coupon rate is lower than it's yield to maturity, then the bond's price will increase over it's remaining maturity.</u>
Similarly, if a bond pays lower rate of interest than the market rate of interest on similarly priced bonds, the bond shall sell at lower than it's face value and the price will increase over the remaining life of such bonds.
