Answer:
When using a financial calculator to compute the issue price of the bonds, the applicable periodic interest rate ("I") is 3.923%
Explanation:
Hi, first, the discount interest rate that you have to choose is 8%, because 9% is the coupon rate (which in our case would be 9%/2=4.5% and this is used only to find the amount to be paid semi-annually).
Now we know we have to choose 8%, but this is an effective rate (I know this is an effective rate because no units were mentioned), and by definition it is a periodic rate, but it is not the rate that we need since the payments are going to be made in a semi-annual way, therefore we need to use the following equation.
![r(semi-annual)=[1+r(annual)]^{\frac{1}{2} } -1](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=r%28semi-annual%29%3D%5B1%2Br%28annual%29%5D%5E%7B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%7D%20-1)
So, everything should look like this.
![r(semi-annual)=[1+0.08]^{\frac{1}{2} } -1=0.03923](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=r%28semi-annual%29%3D%5B1%2B0.08%5D%5E%7B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%7D%20-1%3D0.03923)
Therefore, the periodic interest that yuo have to use to calculate the price of the bond is 3.923%
Best of luck.
The answer to this question would be: <span>A. $55,555
</span>In this question, the interest rate is 0.018% and you need to have $9.99 interest. That mean, you need to divide the target interest value with the current interest rate. The equation should be:
interest = bank account * interest rate
$9.99 = bank account * 0.018%
bank account = $9.99/ 0.018% (don't forget the % mean 1/100)
bank account = $55,500
If we assume that the $9.99 value is $9.99... then the answer would be $55,555
Deposit column. You can also state in the comments section that it was interest earned from the checking account.
Answer: $322,000
Explanation:
Consolidated income = Net income from Ackerman + Net Income from Brannigan + Excess depreciation - Amortization of unpatented tech - Gain from transfer of equipment
Excess depreciation = New depreciation of equipment - Old depreciation
Depreciation is straight line;
= (200,000/5 years) - (110,000/5)
= $18,000
Gain from transfer of equipment
= Sales - Book value
= 200,000 - 110,000
= $90,000
Consolidated income = 300,000 + 98,000 + 18,000 - 4,000 - 90,000
= $322,000
Answer:$9,000
Explanation:
The tax credit offered to adoptive parents to encourage adoption is reffered to as ADOPTION TAX CREDIT. The adoption tax credit is a nonrefundable tax credit. This means that people owing taxes are also fit or qualified to apply for the adoption tax credit.
In the United States of America, adoption tax credit qualified expenses include court costs, traveling expenses, lawyer's or Attorney's fee and other expenses for legal adoption of an eligible child.
It can be calculated by subtracting
the max's employer provided for the couple with adoption benefits of $4,000 from the incurred expenses of a total of $13,000 in qualified adoption expenses(from the question).
That is; $13,000-$4,000.
= $9,000.
Hence, the maximum amount of adoption credit they can take this year is $9,000.
