Answer:

Explanation:

The journal entry is shown below:

Assets A/c Dr $530,000

Goodwill A/c Dr $40,000

        To Liabilities A/c $20,000

        To Cash A/c $550,000

(Being the purchase is recorded and the remaining amount would be debited to the goodwill account)

The goodwill amount is computed below:

= Liabilities + cash paid -  fair market value of the tangible assets

= $20,000 + $550,000 - $530,000

= $570,000 - $530,000

= $40,000

On october 31, 2009, sky co. borrowed $16 million cash and issued a 7-month, noninterest-bearing note. the loan was made by star
mash [69]

Answer: Sky's effective interest rate on this loan is 8.39%.

In this question, we assume that interest is compounded annually.

Since Sky issues a non-interest bearing note, Star Finance will deduct 7 months' interest at 8% on the Face Value of the loan and pay the rest as principal to Sky.

Face value of the note            $16 million

Discount Rate p.a                        8%  

Tenure of the note                    7 months

Discount on Note = Face Value * Discount Rate * \frac{Tenure in months}{Months in a year}

Discount on Note = 16 * 0.08 * \frac{7}{12}

Discount on Note = 0.746666667million

[tex]Loan Amount received by Sky = Face Value - Discount on note[/tex]

Loan Amount received by Sky = 16 - 0.746666667

Loan Amount received by Sky = 15.25333333 million

So, Sky pays an interest of 0.746666667 on a sum of 15.25333333  for 7 months. This works out to a seven month interest of:

Seven month Interest Rate = \frac{Interest}{Loan amount}

Seven month Interest Rate = \frac{0.746666667}{15.25333333}

Seven month Interest Rate = 0.048951049

From this we can work out the effective interest rate for Sky as follows:

Sky's Effective Interest Rate = Seven month interest rate * \frac{12}{7}

Sky's Effective Interest Rate = 0.048951049* \frac{12}{7}

Sky's Effective Interest Rate = 0.083916084

Explanation: Shareholders equity can be defined as the total amount of investment done by the shareholders in the company. This investment can be done through various kinds of securities like common stock, preference shares.

As per this problem shareholder equity would be

= (no. of shares to be collected by warrant holders)*(price of each warrant)

and,

no. of shares to be collected = (1400 bonds) * (30 shares)

                                                  = 42,000 shares

.

therefore, equity :-

(42,000 shares) ( $3 ) = $126,000
