Answer: Amount should Jent report as gain on the sale of bonds : <em>$22000</em>

Explanation:

Given:

Bonds purchased at a discount of $10,000

Bonds sold at a premium of $14,000

Amortization of the discount amounted to $2,000.

Therefore, gain on the sale of bonds can be computed as:

Gains = (Cost + Premium) - (Cost - Carrying Cost)

∵ Carrying Cost = Purchasing Cost - Amortization

Carrying Cost = 10000 - 2000

Carrying Cost = $8000

∴ Gains = (10000 + 14000) - (10000 - 8000)

<u><em>Gains = $22000 </em></u>

A firm agreed to pay its workers ​$2525 an hour in 2016 and ​$4141 an hour in 2017. The price level for these years was 241 in 2
NemiM [27]

Answer:

(a) 10.4%; 16.73%

(b) 6.33%

Explanation:

Given that,

Wages paid to the workers in 2016 = $25 per hour

Price level in 2016 = 241

Wages paid to the workers in 2017 = $41 per hour

Price level in 2017 = 245

Real wage rate in 2016:

= (Nominal wages ÷ Price level) × 100

= ($25 ÷ 241) × 100

= 0.104 × 100

= 10.4%

Real wage rate in 2017:

= (Nominal wages ÷ Price level) × 100

= ($41 ÷ 245) × 100

= 0.1673 × 100

= 16.73%

Therefore, the real wage increase received by these workers in​ 2017 is calculated as follows:

= Real wage rate in 2017 - Real wage rate in 2016

= 16.73% -  10.4%

= 6.33%

Hence, these workers do get a raise between the two years.

Dimas [21]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

An activity based costing (ABC) system assigns resources to the different production activities, and then unit costs are determined by the proportion of the production activities that every unit requires.

This is a much more complex costing method than just assigning overhead costs based on direct labor hours or machine hours.

High flyer, inc., wishes to maintain a growth rate of 16 percent per year and a debt-equity ratio of 0.90. the profit margin is
Xelga [282]

Answer: The dividend payout ratio is 46.19%.

We follow these steps in order to arrive at the answer:

We begin with the DuPont identity of RoE.

<u>DuPont Identity:</u>

RoE = Net Profit Margin * Asset Turnover Ratio * Equity Multiplier

Now,  

Equity Multiplier = \frac{1}{Debt Ratio}

And Debt Ratio is also expressed as:

Debt Ratio = \frac{D/E}{1+D/E}

where D/E represents the Debt-Equity Ratio.

Substituting the value of D/E ratio from the question in the debt ratio formula above we get,

Debt Ratio = \frac{0.9}{1+0.9}

Debt Ratio = \frac{0.9}{1.9}----(1)

Substituting (1) in the equity multiplier formula above we get,

Equity Multiplier = \frac{1}{\frac{0.9}{1.9}}

Equity Multiplier = \frac{1.9}{0.9}

Substituting Equity Multiplier from above and the relevant numbers from the question in the DuPont identity we get,

RoE = 0.048 * 1.08 * \frac{1.9}{0.9}

RoE = 0.10944

The relationship between RoE and earnings growth rate g is given by the following formula:

RoE = \frac{g}{(1-p)}, where p is the dividend payout ratio.

Plugging in the values in the formula above we get,

0.10944 = \frac{0.16}{(1-p)}

1-p = \frac{0.16}{0.10944}

1-p = 1.461988304

p = 0.461988304 or 46.19%
