Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

It means that tangerines are a substitute good to bananas

Explanation:

Substitute goods are goods that provide the same benefit for the consumer, and therefore, are somewhat interchangeable. When the price of one good rises, then, people flock to the substitutes.

In this case, for Pam, tangerines provide the same benefit as bananas (they are both fruits anyway), and because bananas are now more expensive, she decides to purchase more bananas instead.

Requirement 1. How much cash did the company receive upon issuance of the bonds payable? (Use the factor tables provided with

Masteriza [31]

Missing information:

A lot of information is missing, but I found several examples with very similar requirements.

For example:

Company, Inc. issued $500,000 of 14%, 10-year bonds payable on January 1, 2018. The market interest rate at the date of issuance was 12%, and the bonds pay interest semiannually.

Answer:

In order to determine the market price of the bonds we must add the present value of the bonds' face value + present value of the coupon payments:

PV of face value = $500,000 / (1 + 6%)²⁰ = $155,902.36

PV of coupon payments = $35,000 x 11.470 (PV annuity factor, 6%, 20 periods) = $401,450

market value of the bonds = $557,352.36

The journal entry to record the issuance of the bonds:

January 1, 2018, bonds are issued at a premium

Dr Cash 557,352.36

Cr Bonds payable 500,000

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Total cost= $877,500

Explanation:

<u> First, we need to calculate the unitary variable cost:</u>

Unitary variable cost= 135,000 / 30,000= $4.5

Unitary variable cost= 180,000 / 40,000= $4.5

Unitary variable cost= 225,000 / 50,000= $4.5

<u>Now, the total cost for 35,000 hours:</u>

Total cost= Unitary variable cost*total number of hours + fixed costs

Total cost= 4.5*35,000 + 720,000

Total cost= $877,500
