Answer: e. none of these answers are correct.

Explanation:

Going by the accrual basis in Accounting, expenses should be recorded only when incurred.

Rent expense for the year therefore will be the rent incurred for the year which is for the month of December alone in this question as the rent was paid on December 1.

The rent for December will be deducted from the Prepaid expense account.

Rent per month is;

= 16,212/6

= $2,702 per month

Correct entry will be;

Date               Details                                                     Debit               Credit

Dec. 31           Rent Expense                                        $2,702

                       Prepaid Rent                                                                   $2,702

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

$15000

Explanation:

All types of bonds have some common characteristics which include;

- A face/par value

- A coupon rate (interest rate).

- Either redeemable/irredeemable or convertible.

The face value of one bond is $1000 so the total value of 300 bonds would be $300,000 (300×$1000). In this example these are redeemable bonds which means Whitefeather Industries would be liable to payback the capital amount of bonds after five years (maturity date).

The coupon rate (i.e interest) is charged on Par value. So the Interest can be calculated as $300,000×10% = $30,000 per year.

In this question interest is payable semi-annually, therefore The amount of interest that occurs on December 31, 2017 is $15000 (For the last six months - July 1st till Dec 31st; $30000×6÷12).

Verizon [17]

Answer:

The accounting cost and the economic cost associated with​ Joe's computer software business is $75,00 and the $165,000 respectively.

                           = $75,000

Economic cost = Accounting cost + Salary expense + Rent expenses

Of the following sets of accounting entries, which one correctly records the purchase of a piece of equipment? A : a $15,000 inc
Butoxors [25]

Answer: The correct answer is  B : a $5,000 decrease in cash, a $15,000 increase in notes payable, and a $20,000 increase in equipment, all entered on the same date.

Explanation: The option B is correct because we are accounting for a purchase of a piece of equipment. The options in the questions show that the purchase was partly through cash and partly through notes payable. Since that is the case, the appropriate entries should record a cash outflow (credit to cash to decrease it), increase in notes payable as a result (credit to notes payable to increase) and subsequently, increase in equipment (debit to equipment). <em>So, the total credits equal the total debit.</em>
