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%

Damien Carranza is a nonexempt employee of Verdant Enterprises where he is a salesperson, earning a base annual salary of $31,75
Allushta [10]

Answer:

Damien Carranza

Gross pay = $1.494.17

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Base annual salary = $31,750

Weekly base hours = 40 hours

We assume that there are 52 weeks in a calendar year.

Hourly rate = $31,750/(52 weeks * 40 hours) = $15.26442 per hour

Overtime worked = 4 hours

Overtime rate = 4 * $31,750/2,080 * 1.5 = $91.59

Weekly base pay = 40 * $31,750/2,080 = 610.58

Commission = $26,400 * 3% =                 792.00

Gross pay =                                            $1,494.17

b) Since Damien is a non-exempt employee, he is entitled to earn the federal minimum wage and qualify for overtime pay.  This is calculated as one-and-a-half times his hourly rate, for every hour worked above and beyond the standard 40-hour workweek.  The gross pay is Damien's total earnings throughout the week before deductions for mandated taxes, health insurance, retirement, and Medicare contributions are made.

Since the current replacement cost of ending merchandise inventory is $16000 and the Cost is $21000.

Amount to be written down

= $21000 - $16000

= $5,000

To adjust for this,

Debit Cost of goods sold  $5,000

Credit Inventory account   $5,000

Total amount in cost of goods sold = $49,000 + $5,000

= $54,000

Revised partial Income statement

marin [14]
<span>Often times in youth ministry I am prevented from doing the best at my job because there are policies in place or things that have just 'always been done that way' which are held priority over people. Having to completely adhere to these policies, rules and 'traditions' often prevent me from doing proper work and establishing 'no-strings-attached' relationships with youth to really make an impact in their lives.</span>
