Answer: B. $16,590

Explanation:

The FICA tax rate which is the combined Social Security and Medicare rate for 2017 was 7.65%.

Assuming a base of $118,500 this means that you are taxed on your first $118,500 in earnings.

Kelly only made $60,000 so the tax rate will apply to her $60,000.

Adding that to the 20% that she is due to pay on Federal Income tax the total amount her employer withheld was,

= (60,000 * 20%) + (60,000 * 7.65%)

= 12,000 + 4,590

= $16,590

<em>Option B is correct. </em>

Cr Bond payable $2,400,000

Cr Paid in capital stock warrants $72,000

B. May 1

Dr Cash $2,448,000

Dr Discount on bonds payable $24,713

Cr Bonds payable $2,400,000

Cr Paid in capital stock warrants $72,713

Explanation:

a. Preparation of the entry to record the issuance of the bonds and warrants

May 1

Dr Cash $2,448,000

Dr Discount on bond payable $24,000

Cr Bond payable $2,400,000

Cr Paid in capital stock warrants $72,000

(To record the issuance of the bonds and warrants )

Workings:

Cash = (2,400 * 1,000) * 102%

Cash = 2,400,000 * 1.02

Cash = $2,448,000

Discount on bond payable = (2,400 * 1,000) * (1 - 99%)

Discount on bond payable = 2,400,000 * 0.01

Discount on bond payable = $24,000

Bond payable = 2,400 * 1,000

Bond payable = $2,400,000

Paid in capital stock warrants = 2,448,000 + 24,000 - 2,400,000

Paid in capital stock warrants = $72,000

b.Preparation of the entry to record the issuance of the bonds and warrants Assume the same facts as part (a), except that the warrants had a fair value of $30.

May 1

Dr Cash $2,448,000

Dr Discount on bonds payable $24,713

Cr Bonds payable $2,400,000

Cr Paid in capital stock warrants $72,713

(To record the issuance of the bonds and warrants )

Workings:

Fair value of bonds = (2,400 * 1,000) * 98%

Fair value of bonds = 2,400,000 * 0.98

Fair value of bonds = $2,352,000

Fair value of warrants = 2,400 * 30

Fair value of warrants = $72,000

Fair value = $2,352,000 + 72,000

Fair value = $2,424,000

Allocated to bonds=$2,352,000/$2,424,000*$2,448,000

Allocated to bonds=$2,375,287

Allocated to warrants=$72,000/$2,424,000*$2,448,000

Allocated to warrants=$72,713

Cash = 2,400 * 1,000 * 102%

Cash = 2,400,000 * 1.02

Cash = $2,448,000

Discount on bonds payable = 2,400,000 - $2,375,287

Discount on bonds payable = $24,713
