Answer:

5.36%

Explanation:

We would need to calculate the yield to maturity of the current bonds:

YTM = {coupon + [(face value - market value)/n]} / [(face value + market value)/2]

  • coupon = $1,000 x 6% x 1/2 = $30
  • face value = $1,000
  • market value = $1,083
  • n = 20 x 2 = 40

YTM = {$30 + [($1,000 - $1,083)/40]} / [($1,000 + $1,083)/2] = $27.925 / $1,041.50 = 0.026812 x 2 = 0.05362 = 5.36%

Since the bond's coupon rate is higher than the market rate, the bonds are sold at a premium. In order to sell bonds at the par value, you must lower the coupon rate.

Objectives of financial reporting to external investors and creditors include preparing information about all of the following e
sveta [45]

Answer:

Information used to determine which products to produce

Explanation:

Determination of products whose production is not yet decided is a managerial issue, and it is part of internal information that should be not delivered to external parties. Furthermore, this data usually is not accurate, so sharing outside would not be even recommended for this sole reason.

Amanda [17]

Answer:

<u>Budgeted functional income statement for 2015</u>

Gross sales ($2,000,000  × 1.04 × 1.06)                                       $2,204,800

Less: Estimated uncollectible accounts ($2,204,800 × 2 %)         ($44,096)

Net sales                                                                                        $2,160,704

Cost of goods sold (1,100,000 × 1.03)                                          ($1,133,000)

Gross profit                                                                                     $1,027,704

Operating expenses (475,000 × 1.10)                                            ($522,500)

Depreciation                                                                                     ($25,000)

Net income                                                                                       $480,204

Explanation:

Make the adjustments stated on the 2014 Income Statement.

For Operating Expenses, it is wise to first remove the depreciation expense and apply the increment of 10% to reflect Operating Costs for 2015.

Treat Depreciation Expense separately and at the same amount as for 2014, since depreciation is calculated on straight line method.
