cash 618,000

Explanation:

For the value of the bonds at issuance, we will calcualtethe present value of the coupon payment and the maturity at market rate.

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C 18,000 ( 600,000 x 0.06/2)

time 8 (4 years x 2 payment per year

rate 0.035(market rate / 2)

18000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.035)^{-8} }{0.035} = PV\\

PV $123,731.1997

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity   600,000.00

time   8.00

rate  0.035

\frac{600000}{(1 + 0.035)^{8} } = PV  

PV   455,646.93

PV c $123,731.1997

PV m  $455,646.9337

Total $579,378.1334

for the schedule we will multuply the carrying value by the market rate.

the ncompare with the proceed in cash to know the amortizaiton.

This amortization will increase the carrying value of the loan.

The board of directors of Benson Company declared a cash dividend of $1.50 per share on 42,000 shares of common stock on July 15
Helga [31]

Answer:

D. Debit to Dividends Payable.

Explanation:

The first thing we have to keep in mind is that dividends are liabilities, that is, they represent cash outflows for the corporation. In the example, we can distinguish two moments: the declaration of a cash dividend and its effective distribution. Next, we will analyze them from an accounting point of view:

  • On July 15, 2014, Benson Company declared a cash dividend. In accounting terms, on that day the “Retained Earnings” account was debited. Remember that this account is the one that records the profits that the company has obtained to date. So, what was done was to <em>subtract</em> that part that is to be distributed among stockholders. This amount is then transferred to a current liability account called “Dividends Payable”. In this case, money was <em>added</em>, therefore, the account was credited.

  • On August 15 dividends were distributed. That day, the "Dividends Payable" account was debited, or, in other words, its money was <em>discounted</em>, because it is now in the hands of shareholders.

n the 1930s, what caused Canada to respond by raising its tax on goods imported from the United States? the Glass-Steagall Act t
Misha Larkins [42]
In the 1930s Canada decided to raise taxes on goods imported in the United States in retaliation for the high tariffs that were created by the Hawley-Smoot Tariff. The Hawley-Smoot Tariff raised tariffs on nearly 20,000 imported goods to the United States to extremely high levels. This policy was put in place in an effort to protect American jobs following the Great Depression, but instead closed the U.S. economy off to the global market most likely hurting the American economy further.
