Answer:
1) In general, is it a good idea to make only minimum payments on your credit cards?
-
No, the small payment requirement is mathematically guaranteed to keep you in debt for many years.
All you have to do is analyze the interest rates charged by the credit card companies and it is really difficult for any investment to match those interest rates.
2) Assuming you have $1,500 in your budget this month with which to pay down your credit cards, how much should you pay on each card?
I would start with the cards that charge the highest interest rates. I would pay the full balance of the department store card and the gasoline card = $600 + $300 = $900
Since I have $600 left, I would then pay the minimum payments for the cards that charge the least interest rates. I would pay $40 to Discover card and $60 to VISA.
The remaining $500 would be used to pay MasterCard 1 card and lower its balance.
Answer:
C-chart is the best suited for this since it is widely used to determine if the defects or returns are within the control limits or not.
Mean = average = 8 per day
Z=3
UcL = mean + 3[square root of mean]= 8+ 3 (Sq root of 8) = 16.48
LcL= mean - 3[ square foot of mean] = - 0.485
So the returns are within the control limits.
C. Revising is always required or at least advised
Answer:
b. credit to Cash $60,000.
Explanation:
Given that:
Hurley Corporation issues the principal amount of $500,000
Time = 5 years
Rate = 12% at 96 with interest payable on January 1
Discount on issue =500000 × (1 - 0.96) = 20000
Annual discount amortization= 20000/5 = 4000
Interest payable = 500000× 12% = 60000
From the information given in the question; we can have a journal entry to determine the what the straight-line method will include.
So, let have a look at the table below:
Discount on issue 20000
Annual discount 4000
amortization
Debit Credit
Interest expense 64000
Discount on Bonds payable 4000
Interest payable 60000
Now; The January 1 entries will now be as follows:
Debit Credit
Interest payable 60,000
Cash 60,000
Thus; The entry on January 1 to record payment of bond interest assuming amortization of bond discount used the straight-line method will include a: <u>Credit to cash $60,000</u>
