Answer:

Parke Company

The amount of interest expense should be included in Parke's 20X4 income statement is:

= $30,600.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

3-year Non-interest bearing note payable = $360,000

Imputed interest rate for this type of loan = 12%

Present value of the loan = $255,000

Interest expense as of December 31, 20X4 = $30,600 ($255,000 * 12%)

b) The interest expense is based on the present value of the loan and not on the future value of the note payable.  Therefore, the interest expense for each of the three years will not be the same amount but will continue to increase as the present value changes from one year to the next.

makkiz [27]
If the nicotine cigarettes are highly addictive and they were to offer the free samples to young adults then it will make the people be highly addictive in the nicotine cigarettes and this will cause the economy in the producers to have a less demand in elasticity. If it has a less elasticity, then it will cause a large price change, affecting the consumed quantity by the consumers.

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer and Explanation:

a. The computation of the depletion rate is shown below:

= Acquired mineral rights ÷ estimated mineral deposit

= $93,000,000 ÷ 60,000,000 tons

= $1.55 per ton

b. The amount of depletion expense for the current year is

= Depletion rate × current year mined tons

= $1.55 per ton × 16,800,000 tons

= $26,040,000

c. And, the journal entry is

Depletion expense $26,040,000

        To Accumulated depletion  $26,040,000

(Being depletion expense is recorded)

For recording this entry we debited the depletion expense as it increased the expenses and at the same time it decreased the value of the asset so the accumulated depletion is credited

Elden [556K]

Answer:

1. Moral and ethical responsibility

2. No

3. Lawsuit may be involved

Explanation:

1. Every US company apart from environmental or safety laws in the locality where it operates, have a moral and ethical responsibility to do what is right in terms of safe work practices and product safety/quality.

2. Even though some countries may have less strict laws than the US, moral and ethical responsibility should always thrive. For example, China is known to have less strict manufacturing standards than the United States, however this does not justifies a company to practice unsafe manufacturing standards.

3. For corporations selling products overseas that are banned in the United States, such as DDT to countries that were known to still allow it sales such as India, and North Korea. A lawsuit against those corporations may be considered legal.
