A company constructs a building for its own use. Construction began on January 1 and ended on December 30. The expenditures for

construction were as follows: January 1, $520,000; March 31, $620,000; June 30, $420,000; October 30, $660,000. To help finance construction, the company arranged a 9% construction loan on January 1 for $740,000. The company’s other borrowings, outstanding for the whole year, consisted of a $3 million loan and a $5 million note with interest rates of 10% and 6%, respectively. Assuming the company uses the specific interest method, calculate the amount of interest capitalized for the year.

Answer:

$108,975

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

We need to do following calculations

Average Accumulated Expenditures:-

Expenditures for Construction × (Number of Month ÷ Total Month)

1 January   $520,000 × (12 ÷ 12) = $520,000

31 March   $620,000 × (9 ÷ 12) = $465,000

30 June     $420,000 × (6 ÷ 12) = $210,000

30 October  $660,000 × (2 ÷ 12) = $110,000

Total Average Accumulated Expenditures = $1,305,000  

Now

Weighted Average Interest Rate is

= Total Amount of Loan × Total Value of Interest  

= $3,000,000 × 10%

= $300,000

$5,000,000 × 6%

= $300,000

Total  Amount of  Loan is

= $3,000,000 + $5,000,000

= $8,000,000

Total  Value of Interest

= $300,000 + $300,000

= $600,000

Weighted Average Interest Rate is

= Total Value of Interest ÷  Total Amount of Loan  

= $600,000 ÷ $8,000,000

= 0.075

= 7.5%

Amount of Interest Capitalization= is

Specific Borrowing Interest = $740,000 × 9% = $66,600

Excess Borrowing = (Total Average Accumulated Expenditures - Specific Borrowing)

= $1,305,000 - $740,000

= $565,000

Interest on Excess Borrowing = Excess Borrowing × Weighted Average Interest Rate

= $565,000 × 7.5%

= $42,375

Capitalized Interest = Excess Interest Borrowing + Specific Borrowing Interest

= $42,375 + $66,600

= $108,975

JBS Inc. recently reported net income of $4,750 and depreciation of $885. How much was its net cash provided (used) by operation
stepan [7]

Answer:

net cash provided is $5,635

Explanation:

                                                  Amount ($)

Net Income                                 4,750

Depreciation                                  885

Change in inventory                     (200)

Change in accounts payable    <u>    200 </u>  

Net cash flows from Operation<u>   5,635</u>

The depreciation is a none cash item that was initially deducted to get the net income, hence it is added back in the cash flows statement.

An increase in inventory represents an outflow of cash hence the negative value. The increase in trade payable is an increase in a liability representing an inflow of cash hence it is positive.

Assume the government imposes a $2.25 tax on suppliers, which results in a shift of the supply curve from S1 to S2. The price th
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

a. $1.25

Explanation:

From the image, we can determine the seller's position.

As the supply curve moves from S_{1} to S_{2}, the sale will become fewer. As the government imposes a $2.25 tax on suppliers, the seller will receive less money despite getting more money for each sale from the customer.

Before imposing the tax, the seller received $2.50 for each sale. After imposing the ban, the supply curve shifts to the left, and the seller receive $3.50 before paying the tax. After paying the tax, the seller receives ($3.50 - 2.25) = $1.25.

Two friends decide to rent an apartment and split the cost evenly. They each paid $575 towards the total move in cost of first a
ziro4ka [17]

Friend's apartment cost $325 per month, then the security deposit by them is, $500.

<h3 /><h3>What is security deposit?</h3>

A security deposit is an amount of money a landowner takes from a payer other than the early payment of rent.

<h3>Calculation of security deposit:</h3>

Given that,

Each paid total= $575

Monthly rent= $325/month

The security deposit = ?

Total paid by both person = $575 x 2 = $1150 for first rental cost, last month's rental and security deposit. We can write down this argument into an equation as follows:

\text{First Rental}+\text{Last rental}+ \text{Security Deposit} = \$1,150\\\\\$325+\$325+\text{Security Deposit} =$1,150\\\\ \text{Security Deposit}=\$1,150 - \$325\ - \$325.\\\\\text{Security Deposit}=\$1,150 - \$650\\\\\text{Security Deposit}= \$500.

Therefore, The security deposit for the apartment is $500.

You find that real GDP per capita in Burundi is $800 while real GDP per capita in the United States is $50,000. What is misleadi
AleksandrR [38]

Answer: The amount of people live in the countries are different.

Explanation:

It is common for a country to use GDP as economic prosperity or living standards. When comparing the GDP of different countries for this purpose, two problems arise immediately.

1) The GDP of a country is measured in its own currency, for example, the US uses one US dollar; Most Western Europe countries use euros. Therefore, comparing GDP between the two countries requires its conversion into a common currency. However, currencies have already been changed (the Burundian franc was replaced by the US Dollar).

2) The countries have a very large number of people. For example, there are more than 250 million people in the United States and 12 million people in Burundi, so that will cause problems.

The problem is, while the exchange of currencies and comparisons is a good thing, we need to make sure we have a good comparison of demographic data and the number of people, so that we can analyze the GDP differences between these countries.
