Answer:

Note: <em>The complete question is attached as picture below</em>

1a. The one year spot rate can be calculated using the one year zero bond.

PV * (1 + S1) = FV

1 + S1 = 1000 / 900

S1 = 1.1111 - 1

S1 = 0.1111  

S1 = 11.11%

1b. PV of the 2 year bond = $950

Annual coupon = 1000 * 5% = $50

950 = 50 / (1 + S1) + (50 + 1000) / (1 + S2)^2

950 = 50 / 1.1111 + 1,050 / (1 + S2)^2

1,050/ (1 + S2)^2 = 950 - 45 = 905

(1 + S2)^2 = 1050 / 905

1 + S2 = 1.160221/2

S2 = 7.714%

1c. Price of the 2 year zero bond = 1,000 / (1 + 0.07714)^2

Price of the 2 year zero bond = 1,000 / 1.1602

Price of the 2 year zero bond = 861.9203586

Price of the 2 year zero bond = $861.92

Carson company on july 15 sells merchandise on account to tayler co. for $2,000, terms 2/10, n/30. on july 20 tayler co. returns
julsineya [31]

The amount of cash received will be the net of discounts and sales returns.

Given,

the sales = $ 2,000

The sales return = $ 800

The discount will be allowed only if the payment is made within the discounts period i.e. 10 days. The sales were made in 15th July and Payment is made on 24th July, thus Carson company is eligible for the discount. The discount will be calculated on the sales net of returns

Net sales = $ 2,000 - $ 800 = $ 1200

Discount = 2 % X $ 1,200 = $ 24

The cash received = $ 2,000 - $ 800 - $ 24 = $ 1,176

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

A. The cost of asset being depreciated is $57,000

B.The amount of salvage value is $5,700

Explanation:

Among the above-mentioned methods of depreciation, the only method that never consider salvage value on its computation of depreciation expense is the double declining method. So let’s use this method to work back the exact amount depreciable amount of an asset.

Formula : 100% / life of an asset x 2

100% / 5 x 2 = 40%

Y1 = $22,800/40 = 57,000

so to check if the amount is correct, let’s do the computation of 5-year depreciation.

Y1 57,000 x 40% = 22,800 (same as the given data)

Y2 (57,000 - 22,800) x 40% =13,680

Y3 (57,000 - 22,800 - 13,680) x 40% = 8,208

Y4 (57,000-22,800 - 13,680 - 8,208) x 40% = 4,925

Y5 (57,000 -22,800 - 13,680 - 8,208 - 4,925) x 40% = 1,687* (adjusted based on the depreciable amount)

B. To compute the salvage value, we simply deduct the total depreciation from the cost of an asset.

57,000 - 51,300 = 5,700

To check:

(57,000 - 5,700) / 5 years = 10,260
