Answer:
Effective interest recognized on June 30, 20X1, will be equal to $3,354
Explanation:
Data provided from the question,
Amount of bond issued on January 2, 20X1 = $100,000 of 6% bonds
Interest = $3000
Payable semi-annually on June 30 and December 31
Number of years to mature = 5 years
The bond issued for $95,842 with an effective interest rate of 7%
Therefore, the Effective interest recognized on June 30, 20X1 =
bond issued × effective interest rate × semiannually(1/2)
= $95,842 x 0.07 x 0.5
= $3,354
Answer:
The journal entry that is to be recorded on May 1 is shown below:
Explanation:
May 1
The first entry to be posted:
Accounts Receivable A/c...................Dr $5,800
Sales A/c............................................Cr $5,800
As the company made a sale, so the sale is credited and it made against the accounts receivable. Therefore, accounts receivable account is credited.
The second entry to be posted is as:
Costs of goods sold A/c....................Dr $4,000
Merchandise inventory A/c...................Cr $4,000
The cost of the goods sold amounts to $4,000. So, the account of COGS is debited and it is against the inventory. Therefore, the merchandise inventory is credited.
<span>It is very simple. The more often it is compounded the better. So daily is the best, next is weekly, monthly etc. The greater the number of compounding periods, the better it is for your bottom line.
With a savings account you are lending the bank money but with a mortgage they lend you money so conversely, you want as few compounding periods as possible.
It works this way because at each break point to which they compound interest (ie.say monthly) they capitalize (add the interest earned to that point) into the investment and you earn interest on your interest for the next period as well as on the principal you started with (next month in this scenario) So the more often they include the interest earned into the calculation (compound periods) the greater the impact on growth. hope it helps

Answer:
3 years
Explanation:
The computation of the time period is shown below
Present value of annuity = Annuity × [1 - (1 + interest rate)^-time period] ÷ rate
$2,000 = $734.42 × [1 - (1.05)^-n] ÷ 0.05
$2,000 = $14,688.4 × [1-(1.05)^-n]
1-(1.05)^-n = ($2000 ÷ $14,688.4)
(1.05)^-n = 1 - ($2000 ÷ $14,688.4)
( 1 ÷ 1.05)^n = 0.86383813
Now take the log to the both sides
n × log(1 ÷ 1.05) = log0.86383813
n = log0.86383813 ÷ log (1 ÷ 1.05)
= 3 years
