Minchanka [31]

Answer:

The correct option is Debit Cash $1,864,097; debit Discount on Bonds Payable $135,903; credit Bonds Payable $2,000,000.

Explanation:

This question is an instance of bonds issued at a discount. This happens when a bond is issued below the face value of the bond and also happens when the coupon rate on the bond payable is less than the market rate.

The face value of the bond payable is $2,000,000 while the market value is $1,864,097, so there is a discount of $2,000,000 - $1,864,097 = $135,903 on the bond payable, which is to be amortized over the life of the bond payable.

So, the appropriate journals to record this transaction is as provided above.

The following data relate to direct labor costs for the current period:

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:$2,125 unfavorable

Explanation:

Given

Standard costs 9,000 hours at $5.50

Actual costs 8,500 hours at $5.75

we have two formulas to calculate for direct labor rate variance is:

1ST ----Direct Labor rate variance = (Actual Rate- Standard Rate ) x Actual hour

=( $5.75 -$5.50) x 8,500 = $2,125 unfavorable

2ND----Direct Labor Rate Variance=Actual Direct Labor Cost Incurred - Standard Direct Labor Cost Based on Actual Hours

=Actual Hours x Actual Rate -Actual Hours x Standard Rate

= ($5.75 x 8,500 hours)-($5.50 x 8,500 hours)

$48,875 - $46,750 = $2,125 unfavorable

when the actual rate is higher than the standard rate, the Direct Labor Rate Variance is unfavorable and if the actual rate is lower than standard rate, the variance is favorable.

Handy Man, Inc., has zero coupon bonds outstanding that mature in eight years. The bonds have a face value of $1,000 and a curre

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

5.657%

Explanation:

Data provided:

Face value = $1,000

Current market price = $640

Time of maturity, t = 8 year

Now,

the compounding formula is given as:

Face value = Current amount × $(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

where,

r is the rate i.e pretax rate of debt

n is the number of times the interest is compounded i.e for semiannual n = 2

thus, on substituting the values, we get

$ 1,000= $ 640 × $(1+\frac{r}{2})^{2\times8}$

or

1.5625 = $(1+\frac{r}{2})^{16}$

or

$(1+\frac{r}{2})$ = 1.0282

or

r = 0.05657

or

pretax cost of debt = 0.05657 × 100% = 5.657%

LanWan Software earned net sales revenue of $62,000,000 in 2016. Cost of goods sold was $41,540,000, and net income reached $9,

blagie [28]

Answer:

33%

Explanation:

Given that,

Net sales revenue = $62,000,000

Cost of goods sold = $41,540,000

Net income reached the company's highest ever = $9,000,000

Gross profit:

= Net sales revenue - Cost of goods sold

= $62,000,000 - $41,540,000

= $20,460,000

Therefore, the gross profit percentage is calculated by dividing the gross profit by the net sales.

Gross profit percentage for 2016:

= (Gross profit ÷ Net sales) × 100

= ($20,460,000 ÷ $62,000,000) × 100

= 0.33 × 100

= 33%
