Answer: A. 101

Explanation:

Amortization is done on the premium of the bond if elected to be done by the owner.

Bonds at par are worth 100 so a 102 bond has a premium of 2.

If amortized, this premium will have to be amortized over the period till maturity which in this case is 4 years.

Amortization per year = 2 points / 4 years

= 0.5

In 2 years the amortization would therefore be 1 point.

Cost basis of Bond = 102 - 1

= 101

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer: a. It merely conducted some activity outside of Alaska and that activity took place through a website.

Explanation:

CalmDown can use the defence that all it did was to conduct an activity through it's website and this happened to be outside Alaska.

As such the company is still bound by the state that it is registered in which in this case would seem to be in Alaska. They are not to be bound by the laws of another jurisdiction from the one they are registered to if the activity was done on the internet.

Marcus should therefore try to bring action against them in Alaska if he can.

     trading securities - martin                 1,600 credit

cash                           66,300 debit

loss on investment     6,900 debit

   trading securities - gordon         73,200 credit

--to record sale of gordon securties --

trading securities earnhart corp 53,800 debit

                         cash                                53,800 credit

--to record purchase of earnhart--

unrelized loss(OCI)  7,100  debit

trading securities earnhart corp 3,700 credit

trading securities- wallace        3,400 credit

-- 2018 year-end adjustment--

Explanation:

gordon 77,600 - 73,200 =    (4,100)

wallace 172,900 - 167,700 = 5,200

martin 63,500 - 65,100 =   <u>  (1,600)  </u>

         Total adjustment           (500)

We will declare as other comprehensive incoem the unrealized loss of 500 dollar for the period

At sale date we compare the proceeds and the cost to check for the earning or losses:

1,500 shares x $45 each less 1,200 fees = 66,300

                        gordon shares book value <u>(73,200)</u>

                       loss on investment                 6,900

Earnhart corp:

700 shares x $75 each plus 1,300 fees: 53,800

year-end adjusting 2018

earnhart 50,100 - 53,800 = (3,700)

wallace 61,700 - 65,100 =    (3,400)

martin   167,700 - 167,700 = <u>         0</u>

unrealized loss                    (7,1 00)
