Board Company has a foreign subsidiary that began operations at the start of 2017 with assets of 155,000 kites (the local curren
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

a. The Board would report translation adjustment of <u>-$3,138</u>.

b. See the journal entries and explanation below.

c. Net translation adjustment is <u>-$1,138.</u>

Explanation:

a. Assume that the kite is this subsidiary's functional currency. What translation adjustment would Board report for the year 2017?

Note: See the attached file for the calculation of translation adjustment.

The board would report a negative (debit) translation adjustment of $3,138. That is,

Translation adjustment = -$3,138

b. Assume that on October 1,2017, Board entered into a forward exchange contract to hedge the net investment in this subsidiary. On that date, Board agreed to sell 200,000 kites in three months at a forward exchange rate of $0.76/1 kite. Prepare the journal entries required by this forward contract.

Board Company

Journal Entries

<u>Date            Account titles and Explanation         Debit ($)        Credit ($)  </u>

<u>01 Oct 17     (</u><em><u>No entry) </u></em><u>                                                                                    </u>

<em><u>              (To record forward contract change in the value to adjust translation adjustment.) </u></em><u>    </u>

12 Dec 17       Foreign currency (kites) (w.2)           152,000

                        Cash                                                                       152,000

<em><u>                       (To record 200,000 kites purchased at the spot rate of $0.76) </u></em>

12 Dec 17       Cash                                                  154,000

                         Foreign Currency (kites)                                      152,000

                         Forward contract                                                     2,000

<em><u>                          (To record 200,000 kites delivered, $154,000 received, and close the forward contract account.) </u></em>

Workings:

w.1: Translation adjustment = Number of kites agreed to sell in three months * (Agreed exchange rate on October 1, 2017 per kite - Exchange rate on December 1, 2017) = 200,000 * (0.76 - 0.75) = $2,000

w.2: Foreign Currency (kites) = Number of kites agreed to sell in three months * Agreed exchange rate on October 1, 2017 per kite = 200,000 * 0.76 = $152,000

c. Compute the net translation adjustment for Board to report in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income for the year 2017 under this second set of circumstances.

This can be calculated as follows:

Net translation adjustment = Negative translation adjustment in part a + Positive translation adjustment in part b (i.e. w.1) = -$3,138 + 2,000 = -$1,138

Therefore, net translation adjustment is <u>-$1,138.</u>

A firm offers terms of 1.8/10, net 30. a. What effective annual interest rate does the firm earn when a customer does not take t
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

a) 39.304%

b) 67.91%

c) 14.17%

Explanation:

a. Given"

Offer terms = 1.8/10

Now,

The Effective annual interest rate is given as:

= (\frac{\textup{100}}{\textup{100 - Discount rate}})^{(\frac{365}{total period - discount period})}-1

on substituting the respective values, we get

= (\frac{\textup{100}}{\textup{100 - 1.8}})^{\frac{365}{(30 - 10)}}-1

= 0.39304

or

= 39.304%

similarly,

b. for 2.8/10 net 30

Effective annual interest rate = (\frac{\textup{100}}{\textup{100 - 2.8}})^{(\frac{365}{(30 - 10)})}-1

= 0.6791

or

= 67.91%

c. for 1.8/10 net 60

Effective annual interest rate = (\frac{\textup{100}}{\textup{100 - 1.8}})^{(\frac{365}{(60 - 10)})}-1

= 0.1417

or

= 14.17%

January 1, 2016, Karev Corporation granted options to purchase 5,300 of its common shares at $6 each. The market price of common
sergey [27]

Answer:

$1.64 per share

Explanation:

The computation of Number of Shares for computing Diluted Earning per share is shown below:-

Proceeds expected = 5,300 × $6

= $31,800

No. of Shares re-purchased = $31,800 ÷ $11

= $2,891 (rounded)

Net Effect of Stock Option = 5,300 - $2,891

= 2,409 shares

Number of Shares for computing Diluted Earning per share = Outstanding shares + Net Effect of Stock Option

= 71,105 + 2,409

= 73,514

Diluted earnings per share for the quarter = Net income for the quarter ÷ Number of Shares for computing Diluted Earning per share

= $120,805 ÷ 73,514

= $1.64 per share

So, for computing the Number of Shares for computing Diluted Earning per share we simply applied the above formula.
