BETTER CORP.

Event        Assets   =    Liabilities    +   Stockholders’ Equity   Accounting Titles

                                                                                               for Retained

                                                                                                 Earnings

                  Cash   +   Land   =   Notes    +  Common   + Retained

                                              Payable      Stock          Earnings

1.              (10,000)    10,000

2.             35,000                                   35,000

3.             74,000                                                      74,000 Service Revenue

b. Balance 31/12

 Yr 2     88,000 +  40,000 = 33,000  + 43,000 +  52,000

c. The amount of total assets as of January 1, Year 3 = $128,000; liabilities = $33,000; and stockholders' equity = $95,000.

Explanation:

The accounting equation states that total assets are equal to total liabilities and stockholders' equity.  This equation gives accounting two sides to every transaction.  This is known as the double-entry system of accounting.  And the two sides are always in agreement before and after each transaction.  The equation also implies that an entity's assets are funded by the creditors and the owners (stockholders).

A two-year bond with par value $1,000 making annual coupon payments of $99 is priced at $1,000.
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

(a) 9.9%

(b)  10.09%

The further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Coupon payment

=  $99

Price

=  $1,000

(a)

The Yield to maturity (YTM) will be:

= \frac{C+\frac{F-P}{n} }{\frac{F+P}{2} }

where,

C = Coupon payment

P = Price

n = years to maturity

F = Face value

On putting the estimated values is the above formula, we get

⇒  99+\frac{0}{1000}

⇒  .099

⇒  9.9%

(b)

Although the 1st year coupon was indeed reinvested outside an interest rate of r%, cumulative money raised will indeed be made at the end of 2nd year.  

= [99\times (1 + r)] + 1,099

Came to the realization compound YTM is therefore a function of r, as is shown throughout the table below:

Rate (r)             Total proceeds         Realized YTM ((\frac{proceeds}{1000} )^{.5} - 1)

7.9%                      1205.8                                   9.8%

9.9%                             1207.8                                   9.9%

11.9%                      1209.8                                  9.99%

Now,

Overall proceeds realized YTM:

= \frac{proceeds}{1000} -18 \ percent \ 1,\frac{2081208}{1000} - 1

= 0.0991

= 9.91 \ percent \ 10 \ percent \ 1,\frac{2101210}{1000}- 1

= 0.1000

= 10.00 \ percent \ 12 \ percent \ 1,\frac{2121212}{1000}-1

= 0.1009

= 10.09%
