Discount-Mart issues $10 million in bonds on January 1, 2018. The bonds have a ten-year term and pay interest semiannually on Ju

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

6%

Explanation:

Given the following :

Amount of bond issued = $10,000,000

Cash paid = $300,000

Term of bond = 10years

Semiannual interest pay

The stated annual rate of interest on the bond can be calculated thus :

Rate of interest ;

Cash paid / Amount of bond issued

$300,000 / $10,000,000

= 0.03

0.03 * 100%

= 3% (semiannual interest)

Therefore, annual rate of interest :

Semiannual rate * 2

3% * 2 = 6%

Luda [366]

Answer:

Change in Assets is $127,500

Explanation:

The accounting equation for a corporation is:

Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders' Equity

⇒ Liabilities = Assets - Stockholders' Equity

= $285,000 - $130,500

= $154,500

At the end of years,

Liabilities amount = Liabilities in the beginning + Change in liabilities = $154,500+ $90,000 = $244,500

Stockholder's equity amount = Stockholder's equity + Change in stockholder's equity = $130,500 + $37,500 = $168,000

The assets at the end of year = $168,000 + $244,500 = $412,500

Change in Assets = $412,500 - $285,000 = $127,500

Shorter answer:

Change in Assets = Change in Liabilities + Change in Stockholders' Equity

= $90,000 + $37,500 = $127,500

On January 1, 2021, the Excel Delivery Company purchased a delivery van for $46,000. At the end of its five-year service life, i

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

Given

Cost $46000

Life= 5 years

Salvage Value= $ 4000

Total miles = 165,000

Formula

Depreciation Straight Line Method= Cost - Salvage Value/ Useful Life

Straight Line Rate= 100%/ useful Life= 100%/5 = 20%

Double Declining Method = 2 * Straight Line Rate

Double Declining Method = 2 * Straight Line Rate= 2*20%= 40%

1. Depreciation Straight Line Method= Cost - Salvage Value/ Useful Life

Depreciation Straight Line Method= $ 46000- $4000/ 5= $ 8,400

The depreciation expense using the straight line method does not change unless the salvage value is reached

Years Depreciation Accumulated Dep Book Value

(Cost - Accu. Dep)

a. 2021 $ 8,4000 8400 37600

b. 2022 $ 8,4000 16,800 29,200

c. 2023 $ 8,4000 25200 20,800

d. 2024 $ 8,4000 33,600 12,400

e. 2025 $ 8,4000 42000 4000

2. Straight Line Rate= 100%/ useful Life= 100%/5 = 20%

Double Declining Method = 2 * Straight Line Rate

Double Declining Method = 2 * Straight Line Rate= 2*20%= 40%

In double declining method the rate is multiplied to the cost to get the depreciation expense. 40 % of $ 46000= $ 18400

Each year the rate is multiplied with the remaining book value after deducting the depreciation expense from the cost as $ 46000- $ 18400= $ 27600

Next years depreciation will be $ 27600 * 40%= $ 11040.

This will be added in the original depreciation expense $ 18400 + $ 11040 = $ 29440 and deducted from cost to get the book value. $ 46,000- $ 29440 = $ 16560.

Again rate will be multiplied and each years depreciation will be calculated similarly.

It has been summarized in the table below.

Years Dep Rate Dep Expense Accu. Dep. Book Value

a. 2021 40% 18400 18400 27600

b. 2022 40% 11040 29440 16560

________ are the standards stating the amount salespersons should sell and how sales should be divided among the company's produ

Alina [70]

Answer:

<u>Sales Quotas</u>

Explanation:

Sales quotas specify the quantum of sales standards in terms of monetary value of sales that must be effected by salespersons and the segregation of sales among different products of a company.

Such quotas help in creating an incentive system i.e performance above standards which would be rewarded, and thus serve as a motivation for sales force.

Such a mechanism also helps in comparing and analyzing the sales trends of the past, the standards set and how effectively the standards have been met.

This helps in ascertaining and evaluating productivity of a sales team and defines efficient performance.
