Answer:
Debit Interest Payable for $1,500, debit Interest Expense for $750, and credit Cash for $2,250
Explanation:
The journal entry is shown below:
Interest expense A/c Dr $750
Interest payable A/c Dr $1,500
To Cash A/c $2,250
(Being cash is paid on maturity)
The computation is shown below:
For interest payable
= $50,000 × 9% × 4 months ÷ 12 months
= $1,500
The 4 months from September 1 to December 31
For interest expense
= $50,000 ×9% × 2 months ÷ 12 months
= $750
The two months are January to February
And, the cash is $1,500 + $750 = $2,250
Answer:
C) producers will offer more of a product at high prices than they will at low prices.
Explanation:
In Economics, there are primarily two (2) factors which affect the availability and the price at which goods and services are sold or provided, these are demand and supply.
The law of demand states that, the higher the demand for goods and services, the higher the price it would be sold all things being equal. On the other hand, law of supply states that the higher the price of goods and services, the lower the supply.
The law of supply indicates that producers will offer more of a product at high prices than they will at low prices.
In order to understand both short-run economic fluctuations and how the economy move from short to long run, we need the aggregate supply and aggregate demand model.
When the price level rises, the wealth effect and the interest-rate effect provide incentives for consumers to spend less. The price level of goods and services in an economy influences the exchange rate, imports and exports.
An aggregate supply curve gives the relationship between the aggregate price level for goods or services and the quantity of aggregate output supplied in an economy at a specific period of time.

Answer:
Esquire should purchase machine B since its present value is lower than machine B's ($69,917.73 < $73,356.18)
Explanation:
Machine A:
PV of purchase cost $63,000
PV of maintenance costs = $2,000 x 6.7101 (PV annuity factor, 10 periods, 8%) = $13,420.20
PV of resale value = -$6,615 / 1.08¹⁰ = -$3,064.02
total PV = $63,000 + $13,420.20 - $3,064.02 = $73,356.18
Machine B:
PV of purchase cost $52,500
PV of maintenance costs:
- $8,000 / 1.08³ = $6,350.66
- $10,000 / 1.08⁶ = $6,301.70
- $12,000 / 1.08⁸ = $4,765.37
total PV = $69,917.73
