ANSWER: To calculate the gross profit for the month of August, Gibson will have to find out the sales in his company. Gibson had a opening stock of 200 units of products valuing $8 per unit. The total value of the stock available at the opening of the month is $8 x 200 units = $1,600. If he uses the average cost method to calculate the inventory cost, he will need the opening stock and the production done in the month of August. This will give him the figure which will show his entire stock which were available for sale in the month.
Let's assume the entire stock produced in the month of August to be 'x', so the total stock available for sale was '$1,600+x'. This amount needs to be subtracted by the closing stock of the month to get the actual value of sales that has happened during the month of August. So, dividing the actual value of sales by the production cost of the sold number of units will give Gibson the gross profit for the month of August.
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.
I guess the correct answer is the GDP deflator but not in the consumer price index.
A decrease in the price of domestically produced nuclear reactors will be reflected in the GDP deflator but not in the consumer price index.
Answer:
The present value of the machine is $35499
Explanation:
The annual amount or annuity amount = $4010 per year.
Total number of years = 13 years
Here, the interest rate is not given so we just assume the interest rate = 6% per annum.
Since we have a total number of years and annual payment that occurs for 13 years. We are required to find the present value of the machine. So use the formula to find the present value of the annuity.
The present value of machine = (Annuity amount x (1 – (1+r)^-n) ) / r
The present value of machine = (4010(1 – (1+6%)^-13) ) / 6%
The present value of machine = $35499
