Answer: c. capital loss.

Explanation:

A capital loss refers to a scenario where the price of a security falls below the price at which it was purchased. This is what happened to the Alpha Industries stock above as the price dropped from $39 to $37 which led to a capital loss of $2.

The dividends paid seem to outweigh the capital loss but we cannot be certain of this unless we know the tax rate being applied to the dividends and because these are usually high, the after tax dividends might have been lower the capital loss of $2.

On July 1, 20x1, Fox Co. purchased as a held-to-maturity investment $5,000,000 of Owl, Inc.'s 8% bonds for $4,580,000, including
Dimas [21]

Answer:

The amount fox should report on Dec 31,20x1 = $4,556,500

Explanation:

The carrying amount of bonds = $4,580,000 - $50,000

The carrying amount of bonds = $4,530,000

Amortization of discount from july 1 to dec 31 (6 months):

Interest Revenue = $4,530,000* 10% * 6/12

Interest Revenue= $226500

Interest Receivable = $5,000,000 * 8% * 6/12

Interest Receivable = $200000

Discount amortized =Interest Revenue - Interest Receivable

Discount amortized = $226500 - $200000

Discount amortized = $26500

So:

The amount fox should report on Dec 31,20x1 = $4,530,000 + $26500

The amount fox should report on Dec 31,20x1 = $4,556,500
