Answer:

The forward is discount, which is -1.8%

Explanation:

The forward rate is the rate of interest that is applicable or applied to the financial transaction, which will happen in the near future.

The percent is computed as:

= (Spot rate / Forward rate) - 1

where

Spot rate is $1.60

Forward rate is $1.63

Putting the values above:

= ($1.60 / $1.63) - 1

= $0.9815 - 1

= -1.8 %

which is forward discount.

Jimmy Company’s cash balance at the end of the month was $8,500. After comparing the company’s records with the monthly bank sta
Elodia [21]

Answer:

The answer is C) $7,970.

Explanation:

We have 04 reconciling items as below:

- Outstanding checks $800: this amount was already recorded in the Cash account of the company once the check was written; thus, the Cash ending balance has already reflected this amount.

- Deposits in transit $700: this amount was already recorded in the Cash or Cash-equivalent account of the company once the deposit was made; thus, the Cash ending balance has already reflected this amount.

- Bank service charge $30: fees paid to banking activities and are deducted without informing to the company. Thus, this deduction in cash is not reflected in the Cash account.

-  NSF check $500: this was recorded as the increase in Cash account by the company once the check was written by the person/entity to the company. However, the writer's account balance was not sufficient to honor this check amount to the company; thus Cash Account at the end of the period should reduced by $500. Instead, this $500 may be recorded in Account Receivable account.

Thus, the adjusted cash balance = 8,500 - 30 - 500 = $7,970.
