Answer:

A) using an excel spreadsheet and the NPV function, I calculated the present value of the note to be $24,036.49

December 1, merchandise purchase:

Dr Merchandise inventory 34,536.49

    Cr Cash 10,500

    Cr Notes payable - Colonial House 24,036.49

December 31, first installment in note payable:

Dr Notes payable - Colonial House 768

Dr Interest payable - Colonial House 432

    Cr Cash 1,200

Interest = $28,800 x 1.5% = $432

So you can retire early, you have decided to start saving $500 a month starting one month from now. You plan to retire as soon a
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

It will take him 45 years

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the number of years it would take to accumulate $1,000,000 if there is a plan to save $500 per month at an interest rate of 5%.

To solve this, we use the following mathematical formula:

Future value of annuity = Annuity payment * {(1+r)^n - 1}/r

Where r is the monthly interest rate and n is the number of months it will take.

From the question, we can identify the following;

Since he earns 5% interest on savings, the actual monthly interest rate will be 5%/12 = 0.4167% = 0.004167

Annuity payment = monthly payment = $500

Future value of annuity = $1,000,000

We substitute these values into the equation:

1,000,000 = 500 * [(1+0.004167)^n - 1]/0.004167

8.334 = (1.004167)^n - 1

1+8.334 = (1.004167)^n

9.334 = (1.004167)^n

To get n, we simply take the log on both sides of the equation

Log 9.334= nLog 1.004167

n = Log9.334/Log1.004167

n = 537 months

Question asks to calculate in years

there are 12 months in a year. The number of years it will take will be 537/12 = 44.76 years and that’s approximately 45 years

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

a. An additional layer of $12,760 is added to the 12/31/2021 balance.

Explanation:

The computation of the inventory balance is given below:

2021 Base year cost is

=  $131,040 ÷ 1.05

= $124,800

Additional layer is

= $124,800 - $101,600

= $23,200

2022 Base year cost is

= $150,040 ÷ 1.10

= $136,400

Additional layer is

= ($136,400 - $124,800 ) × 1.10

= $11,600  1.10

= $12,760

Therefore the first option is correct

Prestwich Corporation has two service departments and two operating departments. Costs of the Building and Grounds service depar
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

$20,880

Explanation:

Under the direct method we ignore services that are provided to the other service departments.

In order to allocate the building operation costs to Operating department A, we need to determine what percentage of the building space taken up by Operating departments is used by Operation Department A.

There is a total of 50000 square feet and Operating Department A occupies 60%(30000/50000 of that.

So Operating Department A will get 60% of the building costs

  i.e., 60% × 34800 = 20,880
