Answer:

1.

$7,250

2.

$284,562.5

3.

Dr. Bond Payable          $290,000

Dr. Loss on Retirement $18,487.5

Cr. Bond Discount         $5,437.5

Cr. Cash                         $303,050

Explanation:

1.

Bond is issued on the discount when it is issued below the face value.

Discount value = Face value - Issuance value = $290,000 - $282,750 = $7,250

2.

Carrying value of the bond is the net of face value of the bond and un-amortised bond discount.

Carrying value = 290,000 - ($7,250 x (20-5) / 20) = $284,562.5

3.

Bond Discount = $7,250 x 15/20 = $5,437.5

Jason bought a car for $40,000 upon graduation from college with an engineering degree and a very good job offer. A down payment
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

The cost of the car = $40,000

Down payment = $5,000

Therefore loan amount on the car = Cost of the car - Down payment

= $40,000 - $5,000

= $35,000

But loan repayment starts from 13th months; therefore there are 12 months or 1 year for which interest amount will be added with the total loan amount

Total loan amount after one year = $35,000 * (1+6%) ^1 = $37,100

Now we can use PV of an Annuity formula to calculate the monthly payment of car loan

PV = PMT * [1-(1+i) ^-n)]/i

Where PV = $37,100

PMT = Monthly payment =?

n = N = number of payments = 60 months

i = I/Y = interest rate per year = 6%, therefore monthly interest rate is 6%/12 = 0.5% per month

Therefore,

$37,100 = PMT* [1- (1+0.005)^-60]/0.005

PMT = $37,100/51.72

= $717.38

Therefore correct answer is option A. $717.38
