A corporation issued $600,000, 10%, 5-year bonds on January 1, 2017 for $648,666, which reflects an effective-interest rate of 7

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

correct option is a. $617,911

Explanation:

given data

issued = $600,000

rate = 10 %

time 5 year

amount = $648,666

effective-interest rate = 7%

solution

we get here carrying value so first we get here Interest paid per semiannual period that is

Interest paid per semiannual period = $600000 ×10% × $\frac{6}{12}$

Interest paid per semiannual period = $30000

and

Interest expense on 30 June = $648666 × 7% × $\frac{6}{12}$

Interest expense on 30 June = $22703

and

Interest expense on 30 December = $641369 × 7% × $\frac{6}{12}$

Interest expense on 30 December = $22448

so

Interest expense on 30 June = ($641369 - $7552) × 7% × $\frac{6}{12}$

Interest expense on 30 June = $22184

and

Interest expense on 30 December = ($633817 - $7816) × 7% × $\frac{6}{12}$

Interest expense on 30 December = $21910

so as that we get Carrying value of 1st January that is

Carrying value of January 1 = $633817 - $7816-8090

Carrying value of January 1 = 617911

so correct option is a. $617,911

You are considering an investment in a startup that will cost $100,000 but you will receive a cash inflow of $25,000 every year

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Simple payback is 4 years

Total discounted Payback is more than the 5 years which is the payback cutoff period.

Explanation:

Payback period is the time period in which the project recovers the initial cost incurred. Lower the payback period the more beneficial will be the project.

Simple payback = $100,000 / $25,000 = 4 years

Discounted Payback

Discounted payback is calculated by using the present value of future cash flows.

Total discounted cash flows = 22935.78 + 21042.0 + 19304.59 + 17710.63 + 16248.28 = 97,241.28

As sum of all cash flows are less than the initial investment so, total discounted Payback is more than the 5 years which is the payback cutoff period.

Giving the following information:

Direct materials used in production 40,000

Direct labor 10,000

Variable manufacturing overhead 2,000

Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 140,000

<u>The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable</u>. The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.

Work in process= 40,000 + 10,000 + 2,000 + 140,000

Work in process= $192,000

One type of systematic error arises because people tend to think of benefits in percentage terms rather than in absolute dollar

raketka [301]

Answer:

She is better off by $40,

Please kindly go through the explanation section for rest of the answers.

Explanation:

From the Question,

Grocery saving = 40%

Laptop saving = 2.5%

Absolute saving in grocery = $4

Absolute saving in Laptop =$10

Yes he should sacrifice 20 mins to save $10 since he does the same for less savings

Second case:

Since Ted is depositing money for only 6 months at 10% interest rate, he is giving up half his annual interest of (0.1*750)/2 = $37.5

Third case:

Interest accrued on student loan = 0.07*2000 = $140

Interest on credit card = $75 + (0.07*1500) = $180

She is better off by $40.
