Answer:
$360
Explanation:
Interest Expense associated with the loan is the only operating cash flow. We need to calculate the interest expense first
As the note is issued on August 1, year 1, only 5 months has been passed on December 31, year 1, So we calculate the interest expense for only 5 months.
Interest Expense = Value of Note x Stated Interest rate x 5/12 = $10,800 x 8% x 5/12 = $360
It is assumed that the interest is paid on December 31, year 1.
Answer:
It helps giving you the ability to choose what you think is best for your business
Explanation:
Vic, using the money tree metaphor is awesome in order to explain. Think about your free enterprise (let’s say… a store that sells trees!).
What you need in order to start and run a business? A place to sell those trees, employees, products, infrastructure, etc., and capital to fund all that. All that business plans and models that you will develop in order to have a successful business will require that you make economic decisions, actions. And, in order to make those decisions, you need economic liberty, which is exactly the ability one has to make economic decisions without political, economic or social blocks.
Imagine that in your region you can only sell trees with red leaves, or your trees are taxed much more than trees coming from overseas, or that employment law requires that no employee gets near a plant (who knows, it could be to prevent allergic season!). That would make super hard to develop your business right?
That’s how economic liberty could help you grow your money tree; into giving you the ability to choose what you think is best for your business.

Answer:
(a) $210,000
(b) $351,500
Explanation:
(a) Given that,
Fair value of equipment = $1,440,000
Face Amount of the note = $1,230,000
Gain on sale:
= Fair value of equipment - Face Amount of the note
= $1,440,000 - $1,230,000
= $210,000
(b) Given that,
Accrued Interest Payable = $290,000
Interest rate = 5%
Gain on the partial settlement and restructure of the debt:
= Accrued Interest Payable + (Face amount of note × Interest rate)
= $290,000 + ($1,230,000 × 5%)
= $290,000 + $61,500
= $351,500
