Answer:
b. $461,820
Explanation:
The computation of the amount reported in the balance sheet is shown below:
But before that we need to find out the amortization of discount which is 
= Purchased value of bond × interest rate of return - face value of bond × interest rate
= $456,200 × 10% - $500,000 × 8%
= $45,620 - $40,000
= $5,620
Now the amount reported is 
= Purchased value + discount amortization 
= $456,200 + $5,620
= $461,820
Hence, the option b is correct
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
For Jerry, the opportunity cost of building a fence is not making 2 dishes.
Explanation:
The opportunity cost refers to the benefit you lose when you choose one option over another one. In this case, the opportunity cost for Jerry when he decides to build fences is that he won't be able to make dishes. So, as he can build 7 fences or make 14 dishes in a day, the opportunity cost of building a fence is that he won't be able to make 2 dishes.

Answer:
To find Earning per share, we can find this by the following formula:
Increase in Earnings Per Share = Net profit of new products / Number of shares
and 
Net Profit of new products = 5% * $4,898,300 = $244,915
Increase in Earnings Per Share = ($244,915) / 1,456,800 = 16.81%
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
The marginal benefit from selling the vane without restoring it is $200. 
Explanation:
Marginal benefits are the extra income a company can get from selling one additional unit of production. 
Zane had already spent $250 in purchasing the vane and the restoration process.
Zane has two options:
- Sell the vane as it is for $200.
- Keep restoring the vane, spend $200 more and sell the vane for $500. 
If Zane decides to sell the vane as it is, his marginal benefit will be $200. That would not be enough to cover his costs, this transaction will result in a $50 loss. 
If Zane decides to continue the restoration, then his marginal costs will be $200 extra, but his marginal benefit would be $500. If he chose this option he could end up earning a $50 profit.
