Answer:

It will take 3 years to have enough money to purchase the car.

Explanation:

We can use either Compounding or Discounting Formula to determine the time it will take to make $19,970 from $15,000 when the investment rate is 10%. Lets go with the Compounding Formula:

                           Future Value = Present Value * (1 + i) ^ n

<u>Re-arrange equation for "n" which is the Time Period:</u>

⇒ FV / PV = (1 + i) ^ n

Taking log on both sides;

⇒ log (FV / PV) = log (1 + i) ^ n

OR log (FV / PV) = n log (1 + i)

OR n = log (FV / PV) / log (1 + i)

Simply put values now;

⇒ n = log (19,970 / 15,000) / log (1 + 10%) = log (1.33) / log (1.1) = .12 / .04

OR n = 3

Bramble Inc. issues 500 shares of $10 par value common stock and 100 shares of $100 par value preferred stock for a lump sum of
Ket [755]

Answer:

(A)

cash               110,000  debit

      common stock              5,000 credit

      additional paid-in CS   81,086 credit

      preferred stock            10,000 credit

      additional paid-in PS   13, 914 credit

(B)

cash               110,000  debit

      common stock               5,000 credit

      additional paid-in CS   90,000 credit

      preferred stock             10,000 credit

      additional paid-in PS      5,000 credit

Explanation:

Market Value

500 x 180 = 90,000  0,7826 CS

100 x 225 = 25,000  0, 2174 Preferred

total             115,000

Issuance:    110,000

Preferred: 21.74% of 110,000 = 23,914

face value:            100 x100     10,000

additional paid-in                     13,914

Common: 78.26% of 110,000 = 86,086

face value:          500 x 10      =   5,000

additional paid-in                        81,086

If we can only determinate the common stock:

total issuance - common stock = preferred stock

110,000 - 190 x 500 = 110,000 -  95,000 = 15,000 preferred stock

additional paid-in CS: 110,000 - 5,000 = 105,000

additional paid-in PS: 15,000 - 10,000 = 5,000

Kruka [31]

Answer:

$14,850

Explanation:

Depreciable amount = $158,000 - $5,000 = $153,000

Annual depreciation = $38,250

Annual net income = $53,100 - $38,250 = $14,850.

Therefore, the annual net income amount used to calculate the accounting rate of return is $14,850
