          To Deferred tax liability (8% × $15,000,000)  $1,200,000

          To Income tax payable ($30,000,000 × 40%)  $12,000,000

Explanation:

The compound journal entry is shown below:

Income tax expense (Balancing figure) $13,200,000  

          To Deferred tax liability (8% × $15,000,000)  $1,200,000

          To Income tax payable ($30,000,000 × 40%)  $12,000,000

almond37 [142]

Answer:

B. $19,687 mil

Explanation:

The statutory tax rate is the percentage imposed by law; the effective tax rate is the percentage of income actually paid by an individual or a company after taking into account tax breaks (including loopholes, deductions, exemptions, credits, and preferential rates).

Now, in our question, statutory tax rate is 35%, but effective tax rate is 15%. This implies, with the help of tax breaks or loopholes, company managed to pay only 15% of its income as taxes.

This 15% of income = $2,953 mil

Hence, pretax income = 2,953/15% = $19,686.67 mil = $19,687 mil

A company issued a 20-year, $1,000 par value bond that pays semiannual interest of $40. If the semiannual market rate of interes
Kitty [74]

Answer: $828

Explanation:

Given the following :

Semi-annual payment = $40

Period = 20 years

Number of payments = (20 * 2)(semiannual) = 40 payments

Par value = $1000

Interest rate = 5%

Using the PV table:

PV at $1 (40, 5%) = 0.1420

PVA at $1 (40, 5%) = 17.159

[Par value * PV at $1 (40, 5%)] + [$40 * PVA at $1 (40, 5%)]

= ($1000 * 0.1420) + ($40 * 17.159)

= $142 + $686.36

=$828.36

= $826
