nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

We know that there is a inverse relationship between the price of a good and its quantity demanded.

Relative inelastic demand refers to the demand where percentage change in the quantity demanded is relatively smaller than the percentage change in price of the good.

Relative inelastic demand curve is a demand curve which is relatively steeper in shape but not perfectly inelastic or vertical.

I feel that the answer would be C as that would give it the most time to grow and build, but I have heard many times that IRA's can be better as far as tax. I would go with C, unless your class has specifically been leaning about IRA's.

Explanation:

First, we solve for the proceeds from the bonds payable:

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

C 26,100 (435,000 x 12% / 2)

time 8 ( 4 years x 2)

yield to maturity 0.04 ( 8% / 2)

$26100 \times \frac{1-(1+0.04)^{-8} }{0.04} = PV\\$

PV $175,724.6412

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity 435,000.00

time 8.00

rate 0.04

$\frac{435000}{(1 + 0.04)^{8} } = PV$

PV 317,850.24

PV c $175,724.6412

PV m $317,850.2392

Total $493,574.8804

We now build the amortization schedule.

We take this value, we multiply by the interest rate and then, solve for amortization and ending carrying value.

To record the redemption:

accrued interest:

435,000 x 0.12 x 4/12 (months from June to oct) = 17,400

premium:

480,606.6 - 435,000 = 45,606.6

proportional of premium:

45,606 / 435,000 x 130,500 = 13.681,98

we now solve for the gain/loss on redemption:

130,500 + 13,681.98 + 17,400 = 161.581,9 value redeem

for cash 136,500

gain on redemption 25.081,98

bonds payable 130,500.00 debit

premium on bp 13,681.98 debit

interest expense 17,400.00 debit

gain on redemption 25,081.98 credit

cash 136,500.00 credit

Now, we solve for Dec 31st, 2021 entry.

bonds payable: 435,000 - 130,500 = 304,500

premium: 45,606 - 13,681.98 = 31.924,02

interest expense:

(304,500 + 31,924.02) x 0.04 = 13,456.96

cash outlay:

304,500 x 0.06 = 18,270

amortization 18,270 - 13,456.96 = 4,813.04

The external environment refers to the outside factors that can affect an organization's operations. One of those factors is the economy as changes on things like exchange rates, interest rates and taxes can provide opportunities or create threats for a company. According to this, the answer is that this represents the influence of the economy in the external environment on the organization as the increase on the interest rates didn't allow the company to borrow the money to build the plant.
