Answer:

Total cost of Ticket = $96

Explanation:

Provided information,

Total number of people buying lottery ticket in a joint contribution = 10

Two people withdraw being short of funds, therefore people buying such ticket = 8

Revised share increase by $2.40 each.

Total increase = $2.40 \times 8 = $19.20

Just because 2 people withdraw, thus earlier contribution per person = $19.20/2 = $9.60

Therefore, total cost of ticket = $9.60 \times 10 = $96

Answer:

The cash proceeds from the bond issuance is 96% of its face value i.e 96%*$1,000,000=$960,000

The discount on bonds payable=Face value-cash proceeds

The discount on  bonds payable=$1,000,000-$960,000=$40,000

The appropriate entries would be to credit bonds payable with $1000,000 while cash and discount on bonds payable are debited with $960,000 and $40,000 respectively
