Answer:

Explanation:

Answer:

On Dec 31, 2012 Lee's liability would be $9,500 (principal amount) and $38 (accrued interest)

Explanation:

Lees notes:

Dec. 13 Accepted a $9,500, 45-day, 8% note dated December 13 in granting Miranda Lee a time extension on her past-due account receivable.

First interest due = $9,500 x 8% x 45/360 = $95

On the 31st 18 days would have accrued of the 45days = 18/45 x $95 = $38

On Dec 31, 2012 Lee's liability would be $9,500 (principal amount) and $38 (accrued interest)

Debit Miranda Lee with $9,538

Credit interest on Receivables $38

Credit Account receivables account with $9,500

When the full interest became due we will pass an additional entry:

Dr. Lee with $58

Cr. Interest on receivables with $58

(Being the balance interest on receivables due )

On Jan 27 when Lee paid her interest and principal amount, we will:

Debit Account receivables with $9,500

Debit interest on receivables Account with $95

Credit Tomas account with $9,595

( being liquidation of Lee's indebtedness)

Tomas notes:

Mar 3, Accepted a $5,000, 10%, 90-day note dated March 3 in granting a time extension on the past-due account receivable of Tomas Company.

Let's recognize the full interest due first:

$5,000 x 10% x 90/360 = $125

At this time we will:

Debit Tomas with $5,125

Credit interest on receivables with $125

Credit Account Receivables account with $5,000

On June 1 when Tomas paid his interest and principal amount, we will:

Debit Accounts receivable with $5,000

Debit interest on receivables with $125

Credit Tomas account with $5,125

( being liquidation of Tomas indebtedness)

Hiroshi Cheng notes:

Accepted a $2,000, 30-day, 9% note dated March 17 in granting Hiroshi Cheng a time extension on his past-due account receivable.

Interest = $2,000 x 9% x 30/360 = $15

The entries recognizing this liability will be to :

Debit Cheng Account with $2,015

Credit interest on receivables with $15

Credit Accounts receivable with $2,000

(Being receivables payable balance and interest on balance owed by Cheng)

However Cheng failed in paying up. It was decided to write off the debt.

The entries would be:

Dr. Accounts receivables $2,000

Dr. Interest on Accounts receivables with $15

Cr. Cheng's Account with $2,015

(Being debt owed by Cheng written off)

Serga [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Calculation for the implicit interest rate on the note

First step is to calculate the PV factor

PV factor=$81,630/100,000

PV factor = 0.81630

Last Step is to find the implicit interest rate by using the PV table for 3 years to find the factor that matches the PV factor of 0.81630

Hence the factor that matches the PV factor of 0.81630 can be found or see in the 7% column which means that the implicit interest rate will be 7%

Therefore the implicit interest rate on the note will be 7%

Sweet Company’s outstanding stock consists of 1,000 shares of noncumulative 5% preferred stock with a $100 par value and 10,000

avanturin [10]

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

Preferred dividend per year:

= (Outstanding preferred stock × Par value of preferred stock ) × 5% preferred stock

= (1,000 × $100) × 5%

= ($100,000) × 5%

= $5,000

Any balance left over would be paid to common stockholders.

Year 1:

Paid to preferred stockholders = $2,000

Paid to common stockholders = 0

Year 2:

Paid to preferred stockholders = $5,000

Paid to common stockholders = ($6,000 - $5,000)

= $1,000

Year 3:

Paid to preferred stockholders = $5,000

Paid to common stockholders = ($32,000 - $5,000)

= $27,000

Therefore,

Total amount of dividends paid to preferred Shareholders:

= Year 1 + Year 2 + Year 3

= $2,000 + $5,000 + $5,000

= $12,000

Total amount of dividends paid to common Shareholders:

= Year 1 + Year 2 + Year 3

= $0 + $1,000 + $27,000

= $28,000

Summarize the consequentialist arguments for and against affirmative action.

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Arguments supporting Affirmative Action:

1) Affirmative action is a method that ensure the diversity is obtained and maintained in schools and workplaces. Moreover, it also helps to create tolerant communities therefore, it exposes people to a variety of cultures and ideas that are different from their own.

2)Affirmative action assists disadvantaged people that come from areas of the country where opportunities are limited be able to advance and they otherwise could not. In other words, it bestows everybody the same playing field.

3)Affirmative action is for to help by compensating to some races who are"started late in the race" , due to many years of oppression, and it also helps level the playing field.

Arguments against Affirmative Action:

1) Affirmative Action can be described as reverse discrimination. More specifically, past discrimination against some minority groups does not justify existing discrimination against them.

2) It weakens the notion of meritocracy and instead weakens races as a dominant factor in recruitment and recruitment procedures. Regardless of the situation, the best people for the position should be placed there.

3) Students / staff involved in the approval process are often not fully prepared for the assignment.

4) Affirmative Action strengthens stereotypes and racism compared to the previous point. People who give a position almost positively because of their activity are often unsuitable and the idea that all people in this race are "stupid" is endless.

5) People of different races or ethnic backgrounds do not need to have differences of opinion in the workplace / university. People with the same skin color are not necessarily the same in terms of vision or culture.

Michelle operates a food truck. Indicate the amount (if any) that she can deduct as an ordinary and necessary business deduction

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

A. $80

B. $795

C. $0

Explanation:

Only expenses that can be directly attributed to the business are deductible.

Personal expenses will not be deductible.

A. Here the only deductible amount is the legal fees of $80. The speeding will not be charged to the business because it was as a result of personal negligence. The legal fees affect the business because the speeding related to a business asset.

B. Only the amount paid to reserve a spot will be deductible because it relates to expenses for the business to make profit. The money she spent on her children is a personal expense.

C. There is no deductible here. These activities were of a personal nature and in no way related to the operations of the business of operating the food truck.
