Answer:

1. The market rate of interest is higher than 7.75% when the Craft Foods bonds were issued.

2. Debit Cash for $746,700,000; Dbit Discount on bond payable for $3,225,000; Debit Bond issue cost for $75,000; and Credit Bond payable for $750,000,000.

Explanation:

1. Based on the information provided in the announcement, indicate whether the market rate of interest is higher or lower than 7.75% when the Craft Foods bonds were issued.

From the information provided, it can be observed that the face value of this bond is 100% but it is issued at 99.57% price. Since the issue price of 99.57% is less than the face value, this implies that the bond is issued at a discount.

When a bond is issued at a discount, it indicates the stated interest rate is lower than the market interest rate.

Therefore, the market rate of interest is higher than 7.75% when the Craft Foods bonds were issued.

2. If debt issue costs were $75,000 and the bonds were issued on an interest payment date, what entry did Craft use to record the sale?

Before the journal entry is prepared, the following are first calculated:

Proceeds from bond issue = Bond price * Total face value = $750,000,000 * 99.57% = $746,775,000

Discount on bond = Total face value - Proceeds from bond issue = 750,000,000 - $746,775,000 = $3,225,000

Cash = Proceeds from bond issue - Debt issue costs = $746,775,000 - $75,000 = $746,700,000

The journal entry will now look as follows:

Description Debit ($) Credit ($)

Cash 746,700,000

Discount on bond payable 3,225,000

Bond issue cost 75,000

Bond payable 750,000,000

(To record bond issue at a discount.)

Production records show that there were 440 units in the beginning inventory, 30% complete, 1,440 units started, and 1,600 units

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. The number of units processed is

= Beginning work in process units + completed and started units - transferred out units

= 440 units + 1,440 units - 1,600 units

= 280 units

b. The material cost per unit is

= Total cost ÷ equivalent units

where,

Total cost is

= Opening work in process + material cost

= $2,220 + $6,610

= $8,830

And, the equivalent units is

= Units transferred out + ending work in process

= 1,600 + 280

= 1,880

So, the material cost per unit is

= $8,830 ÷ 1,880 units

= $4.70

c. The conversion cost per unit is

= Total cost ÷ equivalent units

where,

Total cost is

= Opening work in process + labor cost + overhead cost

= $1,720 + $4,800 + $1,300

= $7,820

And, the equivalent units is

= Units transferred out + ending work in process × completion percentage

= 1,600 + 280 × 40%

= 1,712

So, the material cost per unit is

= $7,820 ÷ 1,712 units

= $4.57
