maks197457 [2]

Answer:

See the journal entries below.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Cupola Fan Corporation issued 10%, $400,000, 10-year bonds for $385,000 on June 30, 2021. Debt issue costs were $1,500. Interest is paid semiannually on December 31 and June 30. One year from the issue date (July 1, 2022), the corporation exercised its call privilege and retired the bonds for $395,000. The corporation uses the straight-line method both to determine interest expense and to amortize debt issue costs.

Required: Prepare the journal entries to record the (a) issuance of the bonds, (b)the payment of interest and (c) amortization of debt issue costs on December 31, 2021 & June 30, 2022, and the (d) call of the bonds. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)

The explanation of the answer in now given as follows:

(a) issuance of the bonds

The journal entries will look as follows:

<u>Date               Accounts Title $ Explan.       Debit ($)       Credit ($)       </u>

30 Jun. ’21     Cash (w.1)                              383,500

                          Bonds Payable                                          383,500

<u><em>                        (To record the issuance of Bonds.)                                    </em></u>

(b)the payment of interest

The journal entries will look as follows:

<u>Date               Accounts Title $ Explan.       Debit ($)       Credit ($)       </u>

31 Dec. ’21     Interest Expense                      20,825

                        Bonds Payable (w.5)                                         825

                        Cash (w.2)                                                    20,000

<em><u>                       (To record the Interest Expense.)                                      </u></em>

30 Jun. ’22     Interest Expense 20,825

                          Bonds Payable (w.5)                                      825

                          Cash (w.2)                                                 20,000

<u><em>                         (To record the Interest Expense.)                                     </em></u>

(d) call of the bonds

The journal entries will look as follows:

<u>Date               Accounts Title $ Explan.       Debit ($)        Credit ($)       </u>

01 Jul. ’22       Bonds Payable (w.1)                385,150  

                       Loss on Bonds retired (w.7)       9,850

                         Cash                                                            $395,000

<u><em>                        (To record the bonds retired early.)                                   </em></u>

<u>Workings:</u>

w.1: Cash received = Bonds Payable = Amount the bond is issued - Debt issue costs = $385,000 - $1,500 = $383,500

w.2: Interest Expense= Bond face value * Bond rate * (Number of months in semiannual / Number of months in a year) = $400,000 * 10% * (6/12) = $20,000

w.3: Total cost on Bonds Payable issued = (Bond face value - Amount the bond is issued) + Debt issue costs = ($400,000 - $385,000) + $1,500 = $15,000 + $1,500 = $16,500

W.4: Annual cost amortization = Total cost on Bonds Payable issued * Bond rate =$16,500 * 10% = $1,650

w.5: Semiannual cost amortization = Annual cost amortization * (Number of months in semiannual / Number of months in a year) = $1,650 * (6/12) = $825

w.6: Total amount Payable on Bonds = Cash received from w.1 + Semiannual cost amortization on 31 December 2021 + + Semiannual cost amortization on 30 June 2022 = $383,500 + $825 + $825 = $385,150

w.7: Loss on retirement of Bonds = Amount the bond is retired - Total Amount Payable on Bonds = $395,000 - $385,150 = $9,850

Gnoma [55]

Answer: D. You should authorize the $10,000 expenditure to continue the project if the project will generate a positive net present value. The marginal cost-benefit analysis treats the $2.5 million as a cost that is irrelevant to the current decision making.

Explanation:

The options you presented were not all the options listed. The option I have listed as the answer is the correct option.

Under the Marginal Cost - Benefit analysis, only the Additional costs and inflows are considered. The original cost is considered a Sunk Cost and therefore irrelevant.

When making a decision therefore, the company or person should ask if the new investment will bring about a positive NPV. If it is not anticipated to, then there is no need to invest more into it.
