Answer:

A. $816,000

B. Dr Inventory $60,000

Cr Retained earning $36,000

Cr Tax payable $24,000

Explanation:

A. Calculation to determine the balance in retained earnings at the time of the change

Using this formula

Retained earnings = Beginning retained earning balance + Adjusted net income

Let plug in the formula

Retained earnings=$780,000+ $60,000 × (1 - 40%)

Retained earnings=$780,000+($60,000×60%)

Retained earnings=$780,00+ $36,000

Retained earnings= $816,000

Therefore the balance in retained earnings at the time of the change is $816,000

2. Preparation of the journal entry at the beginning of 2009 to record the change in principle.

Dr Inventory $60,000

Cr Retained earning $36,000

[$60,000 × (1 - 40%)]

Cr Tax payable $24,000

($60,000-$36,000)

(Being to record the change in principle)

An investor borrows an amount at an annual effective interest rate of 5% and will repay all interest and principal in a lump sum
Ghella [55]

Answer:

d. 101

Explanation:

first we must determine the amount of the loan:

PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 3%)²⁰ = $553.68

PV of coupon payments = $40 x 14.877 (PV annuity factor, 3%, 20 periods) = $595.08

Loan amount = $1,148.76

Future value of the loan = $1,148.76 x (1 + 5%)¹⁰ = $1,871.21

You will receive 20 coupon payments of $40 each, which will be reinvested at 2% semiannual rate. You will also receive $1,000 corresponding to the face value of the bond.

Future value of the coupon payments = $40 x 24.297 (FV annuity factor, 2%, 20 periods)] = $971.88

Total money received at the end of the 10 year period = $971.88 + $1,000 = $1,971.88

Gain = $1,971.88 - $1,871.21 = $100.67 ≈ $101
