Answer:

A) $488,000

Explanation:

cost of new batting cage = $500,000

trade in amount for old batting cage = $12,000

book value of old batting cage = $225,000 - $195,000 = $30,000

The boot in this transaction is how much money you are going to pay on top of exchanging your asset:

boot value = cost of batting cage - trade in amount = $500,000 - $12,000 = $488,000

the journal entry should be:

Dr Batting cage - new 500,000

Dr Accumulated depreciation old batting cage 195,000

Dr Loss on the exchange 18,000

    Cr Cash 488,000 ⇒ BOOT

    Cr Old batting cage 225,000

Answer:

The answer is A) $488 000

Explanation:

The current carrying amount of the batting cage is $30 000 ( 225000 - 195000 ). Although the cage is only being traded in for $12000. The $18000 is regarded as loss to the company trading in the batting cage.

The value of the boot is therefore the amount of batting cage acquired less the trade in value of $ 18000. We thus get to an amount of $ 488000

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Answer:

Dividend (D) = 4% x $100 = $4

Current market price (Po) = $18

Flotation cost (FC) = $1.50

Tax rate (T) = 40% = 0.40

Kp =   <u> D </u>

       Po-FC

Kp =   <u>  $4 </u>

        $18-$1.50

Kp = <u>$4 </u>

      $16.5

Kp = 0.24 = 24%

Explanation:

Cost of preferred stock equals dividend divided by the difference between current market price and flotation cost. Cost of preferred stock is not tax deductible.

econ The presence of secondary markets ______________ the interest rates that firms have to pay on bonds issued by them.
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

decrease

Explanation:

Secondary markets decrease the interest rates that organizations have to pay on issued bonds. With the presence of secondary markets, companies that issue bond can then pay lower rates of interest and still sell the entire bonds needed. What the secondary market does is that it bids up the bonds price above their face values. This therefore makes interest that will be paid a lower percentage, and thus leads to lower ROI and yield.
