D. Changes in federal expenditures
Answer: 1. $218750 ; 2. $231, 250 ; 3. $11562.50
Explanation:
1. The bonds with a par value of $250,000 and implied selling price of 87 ½.
Cash proceed = 250,000 × 87.5%
= $218,750
2. Since it's semiannual interest payments, the total amount of bond interest expense that will be recognized over the life of these bonds will be:
[20 × (250,000 × 8% × 6/12)]+ $250,000 - $218,750
= $200,000 + $250,000 - $218,750
= $231, 250
3. The amount of bond interest expense recorded on the first interest payment date will be:
= Total bond interest expense/number of payments
= $231,250/20
= $11562.50
Answer:
to those outstanding payments which have highest interest rates.
Explanation:
If we pay and settle more outstanding bills now which have high interest rates it will save us from interest which will be charged in future for delayed payment as it will by multiplied by number of days or months for which it has been delayed.
So if we are not paying high interest outstanding bills it will cost us more in future by high interest amount added to the bill amount.
Answer:
Explanation:
Year-end plan assets were $4,250,000
At the beginning of the year, plan assets were $3,974,000
So Actual Return on Plan Assets = (4,250,000 - 3,974,000) - (420,000 - 365,000)
Actual Return on Plan Assets = 276,000 - (55,000)
Actual Return on Plan Assets = 221,000
