Answer:

her expected gain is $45,000.

Explanation:

If she wins

She will make = $400,000

Probability of winning = 0.3

Expected income = $400,000 x 0.3 = $120,000

Cost on the cash = $75,000

Expected gain = Expected income - Cost  = $120,000 - $75,000 = $45,000

If she loses the case she has to bear the cost incurred to prepare the case. So, the probability on the cost side is 1 but probability on the income side is 0.3 so we calculated the 0.3 probable income which is $120,000 after deducting the cost the lawyer will have expected gain of $45,000 only.

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

The answer is e. 40,500.

Explanation:

To find out the balance for account payable in 2014, we need to recall to the Accounting equation:

Asset = Liabilities + Owner's Equity

Applying in the question, we replace the balance of asset items, liability items and equity items in 2014 to find the answer:

Account Receivable + Cash + Inventories + Net Fixed Asset = Account Payable + Accruals + Common Stock + Long term debt + Notes payable + Retained earnings

=> 44,500 + 98,000 + 60,800 + 121,500 = Account Payable + 16,200 + 81,000 + 89,100 + 37,200 + 60,800 <=> Account Payable = $40,500.

So, the answer is e. 40,500.

discount on BP      16,158  debit

        Bonds Payable 500,000  credit

c)

attached the schedule

d)

interest expense 24,192.1 debit

discount on BP              1,692.1 credit

cash                     22,500   credit

e)

interest expense 24276.7 debit

discount on BP                1776.7 credit

cash                       22500 credit

Explanation:

The price of the bonds is the present valeu of the maturity and coupon payment at the market rate:

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

Coupon payment:

22,500.000 (500,000 x 9% /2 )

time 8 (4 years x 2 payment per year)

rate 0.05 (10% / 2)

22500 \times \frac{1-(1+0.05)^{-8} }{0.05} = PV\\

PV $145,422.2871

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity   500,000.00

time   8.00

rate  0.05

\frac{500000}{(1 + 0.05)^{8} } = PV  

PV   338,419.68

PV c $145,422.2871

PV m  $338,419.6810

Total $483,841.9681

We compare against face valeu to deteminate wether is premium or discount.

procceds 483,842

face value 500,000

discount on bonds payable -16,158

<u><em>As lower it is a discount.</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

For the interst we calcualte doing market rate times carrying value at the time given.

then we subtract the cash outlay and the difference is the amortization in the discounts
