This answer would be reliability.
The rest of it will be: price equals marginal cost. But this indeed is not true. The most accepted idea is that for a monopolistically competitive firm the average revenue and price are the same quantity. Now, when a monopolistically competitive firm is in long-run equilibrium, then the marginal revenue is equal to marginal cost.
Answer:
D) is not acceptable because such a guarantee would cause a conflict of interest pertaining to the IA's fiduciary duty to each client
Explanation:
The members of the North American Securities Administrators Association (NASAA) must follow their Model Rule which prohibits investment adviser firms from guaranteeing investment results, in other words they cannot guarantee a minimum profit.
In this case the employee suggested that if their clients didn't earn a minimum 12% profit, then they would refund any fees collected. But the IA firm is not allowed to guarantee the 12% value increase or profit.
Answer:
The correct answer is (d)Research and development costs are expensed when incurred, except when the research and development expenditures result in a successful patent.
Explanation:
Research and development costs must be recognized as an expense within the accounting period in which they are presented, since regardless of whether or not a patent was obtained, the organization incurred costs represented in the research and development process that was executed. When this process generates a patent, it is necessary to recognize said right in an asset, but at no time will it be equal to the expenses incurred in the investigation process, since the company hopes to commercialize that knowledge for its own benefit.
Answer:
cash 96,535 debit
discount on BP 3,465 debit
Bonds Payable 100,000 credit
Explanation:
We need to determinate the price at which the bonds were issued:
Which is the present value of the coupon payment and maturity
Coupon payment: 100,000 x 10% / 2 = 5,000
time 4 (2 years x 2 payment per year)
rate 0.06 (12% annual / 2 = 6% semiannual)
PV $17,325.5281
Maturity (face value) $100,000.00
time 4.00
rate 0.06
PV 79,209.37
PV c $17,325.5281
PV m $79,209.3663
Total $96,534.8944
As the bonds are issued below face value there is a discount:
100,000 - 96,535 = 3,465
the entry will recognize the cash procceds and the creation of a liaiblity
we will also use an auxiliar account for the discount on the bonds
