Answer:

Interest expense and a gain.

Explanation:

US GAAP allows companies to report their financial assets or financial liabilities at their fair market value, this is called the fair value option.

If interest rates increase, and of course the coupon rate is fixed, then they value of bonds will decrease. The same logic applies to bonds sold at a discount.

In this case, the company must report an interest expense in the income statement regardless of what happens to the interest rate, since the company must pay the coupon rate.

Since the price of the bonds decreased, then the company's liabilities (bonds payable) decrease, so the company must report a gain = bond's previous value - bond's current value

Elston Company compiled the following information as of December 31, 2014:Service Revenue $700,000Common Stock $150,000Equipment
Elden [556K]

Answer:

The Elston's stockholders' equity on December 31, 2014 is $550,000

Explanation:

For computing the stockholder equity, first, we have to find out the ending retained earning balance which equals to

= Beginning retained earning balance + Net income - dividend paid

= $375,000 + $75,000 - $50,000

= $400,000

where,

Net income = Service revenue - operating expenses

                   = $700,000 - $625,000

                   = $75,000

Now the stockholder equity equals to

= Common stock + ending balance of retained earning

= $150,000 + $400,000

= $550,000

Qwik Service has over 200 auto-maintenance service outlets nationwide. It provides primarily two lines of service: oil changes a
Ann [662]

Answer:

A. The answer is:

Oil-related revenue = 0.75 x 40,000,000 = $30,000,000;

Repair-related revenue = 0.25 x 40,000,000 = $10,000,000

B. The answer is:

Oil-related revenue = 0.75 x 350,000 = $262,500;

Repair-related revenue = 0.25 x 350,000 = $87,500.

Explanation:

A.

Denote X is the total revenue Qwik Service has to earn.

We have:

Oil charge-related revenue: 0.75X; Oil charge-related margin 0.2 x 0.75X = 0.15X

Brake repair-related revenue: 0.25X; Brake repair-related margin: 0.25X x 0.6 = 0.15X.

=> Total contribution margin = 0.15X + 0.15X = 0.3X

To meet break-even, the total contribution margin should be equal to fixed cost or: 0.3X = 12,000,000 <=> X = $40,000,000

=> Oil-related revenue = 0.75 x 40,000,000 = $30,000,000;

    Repair-related revenue = 0.25 x 40,000,000 = $10,000,000.

B.

The note Y is the total revenue per one outlet.

At one outlet, revenue and margin will be:

Oil charge-related revenue: 0.75X; Oil charge-related margin 0.2 x 0.75X = 0.15X

Brake repair-related revenue: 0.25X; Brake repair-related margin: 0.25X x 0.6 = 0.15X.

=> Total contribution margin = 0.15X + 0.15X = 0.3X

To meet net income target of $45,000, the total contribution margin should be equal to fixed cost of $60,000 and delivering $45,000 net income or: 0.3X = 45,000 + 60,000 <=> X = $350,000.

=> Oil-related revenue = 0.75 x 350,000 = $262,500;

    Repair-related revenue = 0.25 x 350,000 = $87,500.
