Answer:
The journal entry for the issue of bond for cash is shown below:
Explanation:
January 1
Cash A/c..........................................Dr $281,400
Bonds Payable A/c....................................Cr $240,000
Premium on Bonds Payable A/c...........Cr $41,400
Working Notes:
Cash = Bonds Par Value × Selling Price
= $240,000 × 117.25 %
= $281,400
Premium on bonds payable = Cash - Bonds Payable
= $281,400 - $240,000
= $41,400
Answer:
c. There is an "opportunity cost" associated with using reinvested earnings, hence they are not "free."
Explanation:
When the reinvested earnings are invested that is basically the earnings associated with reinvestment would earn the same like that earned by the investment if not withdrawn and invested.
Let us say for example: Amount invested = $1,000
Return on such investment = $100
Now if such earnings are also reinvested then
Earnings = $110
Now if this $110 is used rather than investing again, then there is the opportunity cost of earning $11 on such reinvestment.
Thus, statement c is correct.
Answer: 4,050 units
Explanation:
Units to be produced in July = Units sold + ending inventory - beginning inventory
Ending inventory = 20% of August sales = 20% * 4,690 = 938 units
Beginning inventory = 20% of July sales = 20% * 3,890 = 778 units
Units to be produced = 3,890 + 938 - 778
= 4,050 units

Simplifying
(2a + 5)(3a + -4) = 0
Reorder the terms:
(5 + 2a)(3a + -4) = 0
Reorder the terms:
(5 + 2a)(-4 + 3a) = 0
Multiply (5 + 2a) * (-4 + 3a)
(5(-4 + 3a) + 2a * (-4 + 3a)) = 0
((-4 * 5 + 3a * 5) + 2a * (-4 + 3a)) = 0
((-20 + 15a) + 2a * (-4 + 3a)) = 0
(-20 + 15a + (-4 * 2a + 3a * 2a)) = 0
(-20 + 15a + (-8a + 6a2)) = 0
Combine like terms: 15a + -8a = 7a
(-20 + 7a + 6a2) = 0
Solving
-20 + 7a + 6a2 = 0
Solving for variable 'a'.
Factor a trinomial.
(-5 + -2a)(4 + -3a) = 0
Subproblem 1
Set the factor '(-5 + -2a)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:
Simplifying
-5 + -2a = 0
Solving
-5 + -2a = 0
Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '5' to each side of the equation.
-5 + 5 + -2a = 0 + 5
Combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0
0 + -2a = 0 + 5
-2a = 0 + 5
Combine like terms: 0 + 5 = 5
-2a = 5
Divide each side by '-2'.
a = -2.5
Simplifying
a = -2.5
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(4 + -3a)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:
Simplifying
4 + -3a = 0
Solving
4 + -3a = 0
Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-4' to each side of the equation.
4 + -4 + -3a = 0 + -4
Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0
0 + -3a = 0 + -4
-3a = 0 + -4
Combine like terms: 0 + -4 = -4
-3a = -4
Divide each side by '-3'.
a = 1.333333333
Simplifying
a = 1.333333333
Solution
a = {-2.5, 1.333333333}
