Answer:

C) 0.5 USD

Explanation:

Swap is an arrangement in which two parties exchange their interest rates for mutual benefit. One party may receive fixed rate and other will receive floating rate based on LIBOR. In the given scenario the swap agreement was originated when the LIBIOR was 3%. The fixed rate was set to be at 4% so the net gain at the time of inception was 1%. When LIBOR increased after six month the net gain declined to only 0.5%.

a) A 10-column worksheet is a tool used by accountants to close the temporary accounts, after necessary adjustments, and then extract a balance sheet.  It comprises two columns (debit and credit) for each of the following: Unadjusted Trial Balance, Adjusting Entries, Adjusted Trial Balance, Income Statement, and Balance Sheet.

b) A closing entry is a journal entry that is made at the end of an accounting period to transfer balances from a temporary account to a permanent account.  The four basic steps in the closing process are: Closing the revenue accounts—transferring the credit balances in the revenue accounts to a clearing account called Income Summary. Closing the expense accounts—transferring the debit balances in the expense accounts to a clearing account called Income Summary.  Extracting a balance between the revenue accounts and the expense accounts, called the net income or loss.  Closing the net income or loss to the Retained Earnings.

Feather Company's inventory is recorded at its historical cost of $100,000. The replacement cost currently is $95,000; estimated
Liula [17]

Answer:

B. $97000

Explanation:

Given that

Estimated selling price = 102000

Estimated selling cost = 5000

Recall that

The net realizable value which is NRV

= Estimated selling price - estimated selling cost

Thus,

NRV = 102,000 - 5000

= 97000

Therefore, the estimated net realizable value is $97000.

Note, the other parameters listed are not used in estimating NRV.

You are considering two mutually exclusive projects with the following cash flows. Which project(s) should you accept if the dis
larisa [96]

Answer:

NPV Project A = - $825.31

NPV Project B = $6119.89

So, at a discount rate of 8.5%, Project B should be accepted.

NPV Project A = - $6804

Npv Project B = - $3764.48

So, at a discount rate of 13%, neither of the projects should be accepted.

Explanation:

One of the methods to evaluate a project is to determine the NPV or Net Present Value from the project. If a project provides a positive NPV after discounting the cash flows from the project at a set discount rate, the project should be accepted. If the project gives a negative NPV, the project should be discarded.

The NPV is calculated as follows,

NPV = CF1 / (1+r)  +  CF2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + CFn / (1+r)^n - Initial cost

Where,

  • CF1, CF2, ... represents the cash flows in year 1 and year 2 and so on
  • r is the discount rate

<u>At 8.5% discount rate</u>

NPV Project A = 31000/(1+0.085)  +  31000/(1+0.085)^2  +  31000/(1+0.085)^3 - 80000

NPV Project A = - $825.31

NPV Project B = 110000 / (1+0.085)^3  -  80000

NPV Project B = $6119.89

So, at a discount rate of 8.5%, Project B should be accepted.

<u>At 13% discount rate</u>

NPV Project A = 31000/(1+0.13)  +  31000/(1+0.13)^2  +  31000/(1+0.13)^3 - 80000

NPV Project A = - $6804

NPV Project B = 110000 / (1+0.13)^3  -  80000

Npv Project B = - $3764.48

So, at a discount rate of 13%, neither of the projects should be accepted.
