For each item listed the allocation terminology for the items are as follows:
Amortization: Copyrights, Patents, Trademarks and Annual licensing fees.
Depreciation: Buildings, Equipment and Land Improvements.
Depletion: None.
None of these: Land, Research and Development Costs and Franchises.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Throughout accounting, amortization applies to multiple-period distribution of revenues. The concept is used for two isolated processes: loan amortization and asset amortization. Depreciation is the reduction in asset value and the process used to redeploy or "write down" a tangible asset's expense (like equipment) over its expected life period.
Depletion is a term of accounting and taxation generally used in coal, forestry, petroleum, or other related industries. Depletion is identical to depreciation in that it is an accounting and tax tracking system for cost recovery.
Answer: In year three the preferred stockholders would receive $7,000 and the common stockholders would receive $25,000.
Explanation: Preferred stockholders are always paid before common stockholders. Since this stock in cumulative it means that when there is not enough income in one year to pay the preferred stock then the company needs to pay them when they have the money in the future.
In this case the preferred stock is 5% of $100 par value and is cumulative. This means that every year the company needs to pay 5% times $100 par value on each stock, and there is 1,000 shares, so the total is $5,000 in preferred stock dividends.
In year one and two they did not declare enough dividends to pay this full amount. In year one they declared $2,000 and year two they declared $6,000. At the end of year two they should have received $10,000, but only received $8,000. In year three they need to pay the preferred stockholders the $2,000 that are in arrears, plus the $5,000 for year three, for a total of $7,000. Since there was $32,000 in dividends declared and $7,000 is going to the preferred stockholders, it means that there is $25,000 left for the common stockholders. $25,000/10,000 shares equals $2.50 dividend per share.
Answer:
a. Current ratio
Explanation:
Current Ratio is the least likely to be affected
The Current Ratio is given as
Current Ratio = [ Current assets ] ÷ [ Current liabilities ]
Now,
Building a new plant is a fixed asset for the company.
Thus, It will add to the Fixed assets
Since,
The Formula for current ratio is independent of the fixed assets
Therefore,
It will be least affected.
While,
Debt to equity ratio = [ Debt ] ÷ [ Equity ]
Debt to asset ratio= [ Total Debt ] ÷ [ Total Assets ]
Net fixed assets to total assets = [ Net fixed assets ] ÷ [ Total assets ]
in all the above relations, fixed asset will change the value of the total assets.
Hence,
They all will be affected
Answer:
Dr. Cash $3,549,590
Cr. Premium on Account Receivable $649,590
Cr. Bond Payable Account $2,900,000
Explanation:
The difference between the face value of the bond and the sale value of the bond is known as premium or the discount on the bond. If the face value is higher from the sale value the bond is issued on the discount and if the sale value of the bond is higher than the face value the bond is issued on the premium.
Premium on the Bond = Face value - Sale value = $3,549,590 - $2,900,000 = $649,590
The Premium will be amortized during the life of the bond to maturity and deducted from the interest expense.
Answer:
a. reserve requirements, the discount rate, and open-market operations.
Explanation:
Monetary policy can be defined as the actions (macroeconomic policies) adopted and undertaken by the central bank of a particular country to control the money supply and interest rates so as to boost or enhance economic growth. The central bank uses monetary policies to manage inflation, economic growth through long-term interest rates and level of unemployment in a country. In order to boost economic growth, monetary policy is used to increase money supply (liquidity) while it is also used to prevent inflation by reducing money supply.
Additionally, money supply comprises of checks, cash, money market mutual funds (MMF) and credit (mortgage, bonds and loans).
The three (3) primary policy tools available to the governmental officials in charge of our country's monetary policy are reserve requirements, the discount rate, and open-market operations.
