Answer:
$1,500
Explanation:
Investment interest expenses = Interest Income + Non qualifying dividends
Investment interest expenses = $500 + $1,000
Investment interest expenses = $1,500
$1,500 < $2,500 (Investment interest expenses)
The long term capital gains are not considered in investment income because this income is taxed at a preferential rate. Hence, the Investment interest expenses deduction for the year is $1,500.

Answer:
Feb. 1 DR Cash $400,000
CR Tax anticipation notes $400,000
Dec 31 DR Expenditures - Interest $3,666.67
CR Accrued Interest Payable $3,666.67
Working
February to December = 11 months
Interest = 400,000 * 1.0% * 11/12 months = $3,666.67
April 1 DR Investments $100,000
CR Cash $100,000
Sept. 30 DR Cash $50,200
CR Investments $50,000
Interest Income $200
Working
Interest Income = 50,000 * 0.8% * 6/12 months
= $200
Answer:
B. No effect on net income; no effect on total assets
Explanation:
When you write off bad debt, the journal entry is:
Dr Allowance for doubtful accounts XYZ
Cr Accounts receivable XYZ
This actually had no effect on the income statement, since the allowance account is already a contra asset account.
When the write off is reversed because the customer paid the debt, the journal entry is:
Dr Accounts receivable XYZ
Cr Allowance for doubtful accounts XYZ
Dr Cash XYZ
Cr Accounts receivable XYZ
Again, since the company is using the allowance method, there is no real effect on the income statement nor total assets in the balance sheet.
Answer:
a)
P₀ = Div₁ / (Re - g)
- P₀ = current stock price = ?
- Div₁ = next dividend = $8
- Re = equity cost = 10%
- g = constant growth rate = 5%
P₀ = $8 / (10% - 5%) = $8 / 5% = $160
b)
EPS = $12
Return on equity (ROE) = g / b
b = retention rate = 1 - payout ratio = 1 - ($8/$12) = 0.333
g = 5%
ROE = 5% / 0.333 = 15%
c)
Present value of growth opportunity (PVGO) = P₀ - EPS/Re
- P₀ = $160
- EPS = $12
- Re = 10%
PVGO = $160 - $12/10% = $160 - $120 = $40 per share
