On Jan 15th, Mr. White discovered that the net income for the previous year was understated by $60,000. Mr. Black tells Mr. Whit

e that this net income of $60,000 should be shared in the proportion of their current capital balances. (Mr. White = 150,000/$250,000 = 60% = $36,000; Mr. Black = $100,000/$250,000 = 40% = $24,000). But Mr. White feels that the additional income should be shared in the ratio of 2:1 ($60,000 x 2/3 = $40,000 Mr. White; $60,000 x 1/3 = $20,000 Mr. Black). Who is correct? Why?

Answer:

Mr. Black is correct.  There is a basis established by their current capital balances.  Mr. White's ratio of 2 : 1 has not discernible basis, unless that has been their profit sharing ratio.

Explanation:

In the absence of any contrary agreement, partners in a partnership business always share their net income based on their capital contributions.  Sometimes, this may not be strictly followed, especially with changes effected over the years, it becomes necessary to adopt home-grown solutions.  One of such is the current capital balances, instead of the original capital contributions.  This approach takes care of changes and value contributions over a number of years that the business has been in operation, which the current capital accounts will always show.

The App Store needs to raise $2.8 million for expansion. The firm wants to raise this money by selling 20-year, zero-coupon bond
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

10,064 bonds

Explanation:

Given:

Amount to be raised = $2,800,000

Par value (FV) = $1,000

Maturity (nper) = 20×2 = 40 periods

Yield (rate) = 6.49 ÷ 2 = 3.245% or 0.03245

Coupon payment is 0 as it's a zero coupon bond.

Assume it's compounded semi-annually.

Calculate the price of the bond today using spreadsheet function =PV(rate,nper,pmt,FV)

Price of bond is $278.23

PV is negative as it's a cash outflow.

Number of bonds to be sold = Total amount to be raised ÷ Price of bond

                                                = 2,800,000 ÷ 278.23

                                                = 10,064 bonds

Company should sell 10,064 bonds to raise $2.8 million
