Why is understanding debt important?

Business
1 answer:
VikaD [51]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Understanding debt is critical to both financial literacy and financial security.

Explanation:

While most people have some debt, typically the importance of that debt is in direct proportion to the amount of debt they have. While some debt, such as a mortgage, business or automobile loan, can show stability and maturity, having more debt than you can pay can affect your health, relationships and your employment.

Dr Bonds payable $3,181

Cr Cash $100,100

3. $2,250,753

Explanation:

(To record the issuance of the bonds)

2. Preparation of the journal entry to record the interest payment on June 30 of this year.

June 30

Dr Interest Expense $96,919

Dr Bonds payable $3,181

($100,100-$96,919)

Cr Cash $100,100

(To record the interest payment)

Workings:

$2,002,000 × 0.28689 = $574,354

$100,100* × 16.77902 = 1,679,580

Issue price = $2,253,934

Interest: $2,002,000 × .10 × 1/2 = $100,100

June 30:

Interest Expense: $2,253,934 × .0430 = $96,919

3. Calculation to determine what bonds payable amount will Park report on its June 30 balance sheet

Park Corporation Balance sheet (Partial) June 30

Long term Liabilities:

Bonds payable $2,250,753

($2,253,934-$3,181)

Therefore the bonds payable amount Park will report on its June 30 balance sheet is $2,250,753

Describe how effective employee relations techniques prevent the need for unionization.
Natali5045456 [20]

Describe how effective employee relations techniques prevent the need for unionization.

Employers that minimize employee dissatisfaction can also minimize employees’ desire for union representation. Strategies that help discourage union acceptance are:

  • Fair and consistent policies and practices.
  • Open door management policies.
  • Competitive pay and benefits.
  • Employee trust and recognition.
<h3>What is unionization?</h3>

A business union, sometimes known as a "yellow" union, is an employee organization that is controlled or influenced by an employer and is not a legitimate trade union. Company unions violate international labor standards (see ILO Convention 98, Article 2). The National Labor Relations Act of 1935 prohibited them in the United States because they were used as spies to interfere with autonomous unions. In many nations, especially those with authoritarian governments, there are still company unions.

Even though they may be recognized in their individual countries as legitimate trade unions, some labor groups are accused by rival unions of acting like "business unions" if they are perceived to have an unduly warm relationship with the employer.

You estimate Bayleaf Inc. has free cash flows of $70 million arriving in 1 year, $74 million in 2 years, and $80 million in 3 ye
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

If no information of how many years expected for the FCF in Bayleaf, then I assume you expect FCF in 4 years only.

Then the Enterprise Value of Bayleaf is nil, since its valuation is negative of roughly $19,871.

However if we expect to have FCF in 20 years, in which the growth rate of FCF in year 4th is 3% year on year, then the valuation of Bay Leaf Inc. is roughly $347 million.

Explanation:

The valuation of enterprise is Net present value (NPV) of Free Cash Flow (FCF) minus its Net Debt

In the NPV, the discount rate is weighted average cost of capital (WACC); thus we can calculate NPV of FCF in Bayleaf by this function in excel = NPV(14%,70000,74000,80000) = $221,129,242

Then the valuation of company if considering FCF in 4 years is ($19,871)= NPV of FCF – Net Debt = $221,129,242 - $241,000,000

Please see excel attached for your details.

An interest rate swap has 3 years of remaining life. Payments are exchanged annually. Interest at 3% is paid and 12-month LIBOR
noname [10]

Answer:

2.66% of the principal.

Explanation:

Suppose the principal 100.

The value of the floating rate bond underlying the swap is 100.

The value of the fixed rate bond is 3/1.02 + 3/(1.03)^2 + 103/(1.04)^3 = 97.34.

The value of the swap is therefore 100−97.34 = 2.66 or 2.66% of the principal.
