Answer:
Created by a Professor Michael E. Porter, from Harvard, this model explains the various forces applied to a business.
Competition in the industry
: Are there competitors in the industry? If so, are they numerous and weak or is the industry dominated by a few major players?
Potential of new entrants into the industry
: What's the risk of having new competition? If you are selling a product, can you protect it with a patent for example?
Power of suppliers
: Can the suppliers of what you need easily affect the prices? It's basically asking if there is competition in your suppliers' market.
Power of customers
: That related to your customer base. If your customer base is large, chances are no individual will be able to force your price down. But if you are dealing with a limited number of customers, one of them might force you to lower your prices.
Threat of substitute products: Is there any comparable product/service offered at a lower cost that might bring your prices down?
Answer:
$10,786.88
Explanation:
The total amount paid on loan will be the sum of monthly payments and the deposit paid.
Monthly payments = $888.49 per month
Number of months = 12
Total monthly payments : $888.49 x 12= $10,661. 88
Upfront fee( deposit) $125
Loan amount
=$10,661. 88 + $125
=$10,786.88
Answer:
$19,708,745
Explanation:
We first have to calculate the present value of the bonds:
Nper = 20 (10 years x 2 payments per year)
R = 11% / 2 = 5.5%
Payment = 83 / 2 = 41.50
Future value = 1,000
PV = ?
To calculate the present value we can use an excel spreadsheet and the present value function =PV(5.5%,20,41.5,1000) = $838.67
Now we calculate how many bonds were issued = $23,500,000 / $1,000 = 23,500 bonds.
To determine the market value of the debt outstanding we multiply the present value of the bonds times the total number of bonds outstanding
= $838.67 x 23,500 = $19,708,745
Answer:
a) Journal entry
Date Account and explanation Debit Credit
June 1 Cash $108,000
Notes payable $108,000
b) Adjusting entry
Date Account and explanation Debit Credit
June 30 Interest expense $360
(108,000*4%*1/12)
Interest payable $360
c) Journal entry
Date Account and explanation Debit Credit
Dec 10 Notes payable $108,000
Interest payable (360*6) $2,160
Cash $110,160
d) Total (interest expenses)
Interest payable = $360 * 6
= $2160
8,400 is your answer all you have to do is add the 4 sales and subtract the discounts and the returns
