Answer:

rate = 6.3235%

At a market rate of 6.3235% this will be  a fair deal

Explanation:

under perpetuities the principal is never redeem. the investor receive cash payment for an indefinite period of time

This means:

perpetuities  present value = C/r

where:

C= annual payment

r= rate

680,000 = 43,000/rate

43,000/680,000 = rate

0.06323529 = rate

rate = 6.3235%

Iteru [2.4K]

Options:

<em>a. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to rise</em>

<em>b. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to fall</em>

<em>c. Stay the same</em>

<em>d. The supply curve does not shift. Only the demand curve shifts.</em>

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>a. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to rise</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Indeed, going by the law of supply and holding all other factors constant, we would expect the supply curve to shift to the left, which implies that there would be an increase in the price of carrots.

What this means is that because there are now fewer carrots in the market as a result of the effects of the bad weather, there would be scarcity and so sellers would increase prices.

Answer:

January 1, 2020

Bonds Payable                                          1600000 Dr

Loss on Redemption of bonds                 36800 Cr

     Discount on Bonds Payable                        4800 Cr

     Cash                                                              1632000 Cr

Explanation:

The redemption of bonds before the maturity usually requires a payment for redemption which is a certain percentage of its face value. It is usually higher than the face value. The above bonds are redeemed at 102 which means at 102% of the face value of the bonds. Thus, the cash paid to redeem the bonds is,

Cash = 1600000 * 102%  =  1632000

The bonds have a carrying value, which is the face value less discount or add premium, of,

Carrying value = 1600000 - 4800  =  $1595200

If they are redeemed for an amount in excess of the carrying value, they are redeemed at a loss.

The loss on redemption is,

Loss = 1595200 - 1632000 = $36800
