Which feature enables you to view only the data you need

Suppose you are committed to owning a $215,000 ferrari. if you believe your mutual fund can achieve an annual return of 10.8 per

Pie

Answer: I must invest $85424.14 today in order to buy a Ferrari nine years from now on the day I turn 30.

We have

Price of the Ferrari nine years from now (Future Value - FV) $215000

Expected Rate of return on the mutual fund (r) 10.8%

Time until I turn 30 (n) 9 years

We can calculate the Present Value (PV) or the money to be invested today as

$\mathbf{PV = \frac{FV}{(1+n)^{n}}}$

$PV = \frac{215000}{(1+0.108)^{9}}$

$\mathbf{PV = 85424.14022}$

Lena [83]

Answer:

B. First-in, first-out (FIFO)

Explanation:

First-in, first-out (FIFO) is an accounting principle which refers to a process whereby assets that are purchased first are sold first. In this situation, the cost in which the particular inventory was purchased is still the same cost with which it is sold out.

First-in, first-out principle can be used to determine the profitability of a merchandise with its associated cost taken into consideration.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The present value of a 3-year, $150 annuity due will exceed the present value o

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Statement a. is correct.

Explanation:

The effective annual rate is always higher than the nominal interest rate, as the formula is clear for any number of periods, for any interest rate:

Effective Annual Rate of return = $(1 + \frac{i}{n})^n - 1$

Further if we calculate the present value of annuity due and ordinary annuity assuming 6 % interest rate, then:

Present value of annuity due =

$(1 + 0.06) \times 150 \times (\frac{1 - \frac{1}{(1 + 0.06)^3} }{0.06} )$

= 1.06 $\times$ $400.95

= $425.0089

Present value of ordinary annuity = $150 \times (\frac{1 - \frac{1}{(1 + 0.06)^3} }{0.06} )$

= $150 $\times$ 2.6730

= $400.95

Therefore, value of annuity due is more than value of ordinary annuity.

Statement a. is correct.

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

a. See the journal entries in the explanation below.

Retained Earnings is $175,000

Goodwill is $25,000

b. See the journal entries in the explanation below.

Retained Earnings is $175,000

Capital Reserve is $4,000

Explanation:

Note: There are mistakes the names of the companies in the requirements a anb b. These correctly restated before answering the question by as follows:

a. Prepare the following consolidation entries required to prepare a consolidated balance sheet immediately after the business combination assuming Power acquired its ownership of Scrub for $291,000. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)

1. Record the basic consolidation entry

2. Record the excess value (differential reclassification entry)

b. Prepare the following consolidation entries required to prepare a consolidated balance sheet immediately after the business combination assuming Power acquired its ownership of Scrub for $262,000. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)

1. Record the basic consolidation entry.

2. Record the excess value (differential) reclassification entry.

The answers and explanation are therefore given as follows:

a. Prepare the following consolidation entries required when Consideration is $291,000

1. Record the basic consolidation entry

Accounts Dr ($) Cr ($)

Common Stock 91,000

Retained Earnings (w.1) 175,000

Goodwill (w.2) 25,000

Investment in Scrub Company 291,000

(To record the elimination of investment and stockholder equity.)

2. Record the excess value (differential reclassification entry)

Note that $25,000 is transferred to Goodwill account in part 1 above.

The $25,000 is transferred to Goodwill because when the consideration is greater than the net asset value which is calculated as the of Common Stock and Retained Earnings, the difference is the Goodwill.

When Net Consideration is more than the net asset value (Stockholder Equity), then the difference is to be transferred to Goodwill.

b. Prepare the following consolidation entries required when Consideration is $262,000

1. Record the basic consolidation entry

Capital reserve (w.4) 4,000

(To record the elimination of investment and stockholder equity.)

2. Record the excess value (differential reclassification entry)

Note that $4,000 is transferred to Capital Reserve in part 1 above.

The $4,000 is transferred to Capital Rserve because when the consideration is less than the net asset value which is calculated as the of Common Stock and Retained Earnings, the difference is Capital Reserve.

When Net Consideration is less than the net asset value (Stockholder Equity), then the difference is to be transferred to Capital reserve.
