Answer:

5.31%

Explanation:

FV = 1000

Coupon rate = 5.7%

No of compound = 2

Interest per period = $28.5

Bond price = $1048

No of years to maturity = 20

No of compounding till maturity = 40

Coupon rate set on new bonds = Rate(Nper, PMT, -PV, FV) * 2

Coupon rate set on new bonds = Rate(40, 28.5, -1048, 1000) * 2

Coupon rate set on new bonds = 0.02655 * 2

Coupon rate set on new bonds = 0.0531

Coupon rate set on new bonds = 5.31%

Faldo Corp sells on terms that allow customers 45 days to pay for merchandise. Its sales last year were $425,000, and its year-e
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

Faldo Corp

Customers are paying late by 6.5 days (51.5 - 45)

Explanation:

DSO = Accounts Receivable/Sales last year * 365 days

= $60,000/$425,000 * 365

= 51.5 days

Customers are paying late by 6.5 days (51.5 - 45)

b) Faldo Corp's Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) is an estimate of the number of days it takes Faldo to collect its outstanding accounts receivable.  This means that DSO measures how long it takes Faldo's customers to pay an invoice.  Faldo can calculate its DSO by dividing the total accounts receivables of last year by the total credit sales of last year.  This is then multiplied by 365 days.

Hrustic Company issued $750,000 of 12% convertible bonds at face value on an interest payment date several years ago. The face v
mina [271]

Answer: The bondholders decided to convert the bonds into common stock because they believed that getting $2250 today is worth more than $120 interest every year and a $1000 principal payment at the end of the bonds life.

Explanation:

1) In order to find out the number of bonds issued we need to divide 750,000 (Total ) by 1000(Face value of each bond).Total number of bonds issues therefore are 750.

2) A 12 percent convertible bond means that the bond pays a coupon of 120 ( 0.12 * 1000) every year.

3) Each bond is convertible into 25 shares , which means if one bond is converted into common stock, the bond holder can earn $1750. We calculate this number by multiplying the number of shares which is 25 into the current market price of the shares which is 70.

4) Also the company is offering an extra  $500 per bond for converting it which means (500/25) an extra $20 per share.

5) So in total the bondholder by converting a bond and selling the shares he gets by converting it can earn $2250 per bond which they bought for a $1000 and gives them 120$ of interest every year.

6) SO to conclude the bondholders decided to convert the bonds into common stock because they believed that getting $2250 today is worth more than $120 interest every year and a $1000 principal payment at the end of the bonds life.

Dakota Products uses a job-costing system with two direct-cost categories (direct materials and direct manufacturing labor) and
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

1.Overhead Rate = Overhead Costs/ Direct Labor Costs

Budget Overhead Rate = 3060,000/ 1700,000= 1.8

Actual Overhead Rate = 3217,500/ 1650,000= 1.895

Dakota Products

                                Budget for 2017                  Actual Results for 2017

Direct material costs $2,250,000                          $2,150,000

Direct manufacturing labor costs 1,700,000          1,650,000

Manufacturing overhead costs 3,060,000            3,217,500

2.During March, the job-cost record for Job 626

Direct materials used $55,000

Direct manufacturing labor costs $45,000

Actual Overhead  = 1.895 * $45,000= $ 85295.45

Normal Overhead = 1.8 * 45,000= $ 81,000

2.The  actual cost of Job 626 =$ 55,000+ $ 45,000+ $ 85295.45= $ 185,295.45

2.The  normal cost of Job 626 =$ 55,000+ $ 45,000+ $ 81,000= $181,000

3. Under- or Overallocated Overhead under normal costing=

     Budgeted Overhead - Actual Overhead= 3,060,000 -  3,217,500=

157,500 underapplied

There is no under- or overallocated overhead under actual costing because  overhead costs actually are at their actual costs. There is no difference between calculated and actual.

4. Normal Costing would give an idea before 2017 and it is easier to make decision prior to changes. Actual results can only be obtained after the process. Managers find it easier to pre plan . So normal costing is adoptable.
