Answer: $2,845.57965

The principal to be deposited semiannually would be $2,845.58 (rounded to 2 decimal places)

Explanation:

Using compound formula below

A = p (1 + r/n)^nt

A =amount= $3,300

r = rate = 5% = 5/100 = 0.05

n = number of compounding rate (semiannually) =2 interest payments a year

t = time in years= 3

3,300 = p (1 + 0.05/2)^2(3)

3,300 = p (1 + 0.025)^6

3,300 = p (1.025)^6

3,300 = 1.15969342p

Divide both sided by 1.15969342

p = $(3,300/1.15969342)

p = $2,845.57965

p ≈$2,845.58 rounded to 2 decimal places.

Answer:

The amount of revenue to be recognized at 31st March is $383500

Explanation:

The revenue amount that should be recognized in the income statement as at March 31,2020 is the  sales price of $365000 plus three months of installation fee since installation is expected to last six months and three months have passed since installation began.

Hence, the amount of revenue as at 31st March is calculated thus:

Sales price                                                                     $365000

Installation fee for 3 months(3/6*$37000)                   <u>$18500</u>

Total revenue as at 31st March                                    $ 383,500

The rationale behind this is that revenue is only recognized when the seller has discharged his or her obligation under the contract not when cash is received and it is very clear that installation has been undertaken for 3 out of 6 months

Komok [63]

Amounts withheld from employee's earnings for the employee income tax is considered a liability by the employer until the government is paid

What is liability?

Liability means the obligation that one party owes another, whose settlement requires the indebted party to transfer cash or equivalent value of other benefits commensurate to the liability to the other party.

In this case, the employees owe the government income taxes, whereby the employees have discharged the obligation by having the employers deduct them from their earnings.

The onus is now on the employers to make payments in respect of the income taxes withheld to the tax authority, prior to which the taxes are treated as the employer's liability.
