Answer:

Date                     Account Title                                       Debit              Credit

XX-XX-XXXX       Interest expense                               $13,800

                            Discount on bond payable                                        $1,300

                            Cash                                                                           $12,500

Working      

The bonds were issued at a price of 92 which means they were issued at:

= 500,000 * 96/100

= $460,000

Interest expense

= Issue price * interest rate * 6/12 months

= 460,000 * 6% * 6/12

= $13,800

Cash:

= Bond price * coupon rate * 6/12

= 500,000 * 5% * 6/12

= $12,500

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

-24.21%

Explanation:

The rate of return of a stock is the sum of the stock price appreciation and the dividend yield

price appreciation = change in price level = (new price - old price) / old price ($65 - $95) / $95 = -0.3158

dividend yield = dividend / initial price  $7/$95 = 0.07368

Rate of return = 0.07368  - 0.3158 = -0.2421 = -24.21%
