Answer:

5000 at 6%

6000 at 11%

Explanation:

Given that :

Total principal = 10000

Let :

Principal invested in business A = x

Principal invested in business B = y

Interest = Principal * rate * time

(x * 6% * 1) + (y * 11% * 1) = 900

0.06x + 0.11y = 900 - - - - (1)

x + y = 10000 - - - (2)

From (2)

x = 10000 - y

Put x = 10000 - y in (1)

0.06(10000 - y) + 0.11y = 900

600 - 0.06y + 0.11y = 900

600 + 0.05y = 900

0.05y = 900 - 600

0.05y = 300

y = 300 / 0.05

y = 6000

x = 10000 - y

x = 10000 - 6000

x = 5000

Answer:

The amount should be recorded as interest expense in the journal entry made each six months is $6,000

Explanation:

In order to calculate the amount should be recorded as interest expense in the journal entry made each six months, we have to calculate the interest annually with the following formula according to the given data:

interest annually=Issue Price of Bond×rate of interest

                           =$200,000 ×6%

                           =$12,000

Therefore, the interest semiannually would be calculated as follows:

interest semiannually=$12,000/2=$6,000

The amount should be recorded as interest expense in the journal entry made each six months is $6,000

Total Assets=$18 m+$14 m

Total Assets=$32 m

For Market Value:

Net fixed assets=$27.00 million

Current Liabilities=$7.50 million

net working capital=$7.45 million

Formula:

Net working capital=Current assets-Current Liabilities

$7.45 million=Current assets-$7.50 million

Current Assets=$7.45+$7.50

Current Assets=$14.95 million

Total Assets=Net fixed assets+Current Assets

Total Assets=$27 m+$14.95 m
