Answer:
$77,217
$11,289
Explanation:
Fist we will calculate the present value of $10,000 payment
A fix Payment for a specified period of time is called annuity. The discounting of these payment on a specified rate is known as present value of annuity. The value of the annuity is also determined by the present value of annuity payment.
Formula for Present value of annuity is as follow
PV of annuity = P x [ ( 1- ( 1+ r )^-n ) / r ]
Where
P = Annual payment = $10,000
r = rate of return = 10% / 2 = 5%
n = number of period = 5 years x 2 semiannual payments per year = 10 payments
PV of annuity = $10,000 x [ ( 1- ( 1+ 0.05 )^-10 ) / 0.05 ]
PV of Annuity = $77,217
Now we will use the discounting method to calculate the present value of lump sum payment of $20,000
Present value = Future value x Present value factor
PV = FV x ( 1 + r )^-n
PV = $20,000 x ( 1 + 0.1 )^-6
PV = $11,289
A. Hindsight bias- also known as the knew-it-all-along phenomenon or creeping determinism, refers to the common tendency for people to perceive events that have already occurred as having been more predictable than they actually were before the events took place.
Answer:
0.74
Explanation:
Jones corporation reported a current assets of $196,000
The current liabilities is $138,500
The current assets consists of $61,000 cash , account receivable= $42,100, inventory= $92,900
Therefore the quick ratio can be calculated as follows
= cash + account receivables
= $61,000 + $42,100
= $103,100
$103,100/$138,500
= 0.74
Hence the acid test(quick ) ratio is 0.74

Answer:
b. A truck held for resale by an automobile dealership
Explanation:
Property plant and equipment are physical or tangible assets used by an organization in the ordinary course of business. They include Land and building used in ordinary business operations, plant and machinery used in production, Land improvements, such as parking lots and fences etc. Such assets are usually depreciated as they are used and in accordance with the organization's policy. However, assets held for sale are not used by the organization in the ordinary course of business rather, the company holds them till such assets are sold. No depreciation is computed on the assets held for sale. Hence, from the options given, a truck held for resale by an automobile dealership is the only item held for sale and does not qualify for recognition as property plant and equipment. The right answer is b.
