SashulF [63]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The fact that Becky Bongos sales are falling continually even though they keep decreasing the price shows that <em>the underlying problem is not as a result of the customers' dissatisfaction with price</em>. The underlying problem can be any <em>other factors like not paying attention to customers' needs, poor quality of the commodity, lack of proper marketing, and the presence of a superior competition</em>. The solution is not the reduction of price but rather, a closer look should be paid to these other factors.

iragen [17]

Answer:

Bart Inc.

The initial value of the machine is:

= $114,240.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Date of purchase of machine from Fell Corp. = December 31, 2016

Annual payments for a non-interest-bearing note = $20,000

Appropriate present value of the annuity due = 5.712

PV of the annual payments for 8 years = $114,240 ($20,000 * 5.712)

First payment date = December 31, 2016

Period of payments = 8 years

Prevailing interest rate for this type of note = 11%

Check from an online financial calculator:

N (# of periods)  8

I/Y (Interest per year)  11

PMT (Periodic Payment)  20000

FV (Future Value)  0

Results

PV = $114,243.93

Sum of all periodic payments = $160,000.00

Total Interest = $45,756.07

Grocery Corporation received $330,654 for 9.50 percent bonds issued on January 1, 2018, at a market interest rate of 6.50 percen
andre [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

Issue price of bond = $330,654

Face Value = $272000

Premium on issue of bond = $330,654 - $272000 = 58654

Journal entry for bond issuance:

Cash Dr $330,654

Bonds Payable $272000

Premium on Bonds payable $58654

(Being bond issued at a premium of $58654)

As per effective interest method, interest expense = market rate * book value of bond

= 6.5% * $330,654 = $21492.5

Cash interest = $272000 * 9.5% = $25840

Premium to be amortized on interest date = $25840 - $21492.5 = $4347.5 or $4348

Journal entry for interest payment on December 31:

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

b. $1,050

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

November 30, 2020 Inventory purchase = CHF1,000

Exchange rate on this date = $1.05/CHF

Inventory worth = $1.05 * CHF1,000 = $1,050

b) The inventory should be reported on December 31, 2020 at $1,050.  It does not need to be reported at a value above or below this.  Even, the debt owed to the Swiss supplier will be reported at this price.  It is when payment for the invoice is being made on February 1, 2021 that consideration will be given to the exchange rate at which payment is made.
