Answer:

Utilitarianism's primary weakness has to do with justice. Utilitarianism seems to require punishing the innocent in certain circumstances, such as these. It is wrong to punish an innocent person, because it violates his rights and is unjust. But for the utilitarian, all that matters is the net gain of happiness.

Explanation:

As a theory of justice, utilitarianism holds that all human actions (as well as those of a state) are virtuous, moral, and just when they contribute to achieving general happiness. Hence, actions are judged based on their consequences. Actions detrimental to general happiness are considered unjust.

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Answers are journal entries, in the explanation box

<h2>Explanation:</h2><h3><u>Bonds:</u></h3>

Bonds is an interest bearing security or long term promissory note that a company represents while borrowing money with the interested investors.

<h2><u>Requirement 1:</u></h2><h2><u>Prepare the journal entries on August 1, 2021, to record:</u></h2><h3><u>Requirement 1(a):</u></h3>

The issuance of the bonds by Limbaugh (L)

<u>Solution:</u>

<u>Following is the journal entry for the issuance of bonds on August 1, 2021:</u>

<u>1st August 2021:</u>

Debit: Cash $31,200,000 <u>(Working 1)</u>

Debit: Discount on bonds payable $3,600,000 <u>(Working 3: Note 1)</u>

Credit: Bonds payable $30,000,000

Credit: Equity - stock warrants $4,800,000 <u>(Working 2)</u>

<u>Working 1:</u>

Calculation of cash received:

Cash received = Face value × Issued rate

Cash received = $30,000,000 × 104%

Cash received = $31,200,000

<u></u>

<u>Working 2:</u>

<u>Calculation of amount of equity - stock warrants:</u>

Equity - stock warrants = Market price per warrant × number of warrants × number of bonds

Equity - stock warrants = $8 × 20 warrants × (30,000,000÷ 1,000 bonds)

Equity - stock warrants = $4,800,000

<u>Working 3: </u>

<u>Calculate the discount on bonds payable:</u>

Discount on bonds payable = Bonds payable + Equity stock warrants - Cash received

Discount on bonds payable = $30,000,000 + $4,800,000 - $31,200,000

Discount on bonds payable = $3,600,000

<u>Note 1:</u> Since discount on bonds issues is an expense, therefore, it is debited.

<h3><u>Requirement: 1 (b)</u></h3>

<u>Prepare the journal entries on August 1, 2021, to record the investment by Interstate (I).</u>

<u></u>

The following is the journal entry on August 1, 2021 to record the investment by Interstate (I) i.e. investor:

Debit: Investment in stock $960,000 (Working 4)

Debit: Investment in bonds $6,000,000 (Working 5)

Credit: Discount on bonds investment $720,000 (Working 7)

Credit: Cash $6,240,000 (Working 6)

<u>Working 4: </u>

<u>Calculate the investment in stock warrants:</u>

Investment in stock warrant = Equity - stock warrant × 20%

Investment in stock warrant = $4,800,000 × 20%

Investment in stock warrant = $960,000

Working 5:

Calculate the amount of investment in bonds:

Investment in bonds = Face value × 20%

Investment in bonds = $30,000,000 × 20%

Investment in bonds = $6,000,000

<u>Working 6:</u>

Calculate the amount of cash paid:

Cash paid = Face value × issued rate × 20%

Cash paid = $30,000,000 × 104% × 20%

Cash paid = $6,240,000

<u>Working 7:</u>

<u>Calculate discount on bond investment:</u>

Discount on bond investment = Investment in stock warrants + Investment in bonds - Cash paid

Discount on bond investment = $960,000 + $6,000,000 - $6,240,000

Discount on bond investment = $720,000

<h2><u>Requirement 2:</u></h2><h2><u>Prepare the journal entries for both Limbaugh and Interstate in February 2032, to record the exercise of the warrants.</u></h2>

<h3><u>Requirement 2(a)</u></h3>

<u>Prepare the journal entries for Limbaugh in February 2032, to record the exercise of the warrants.</u>

Solution:

Following is the journal entry for exercise of warrants by <u>Limbaugh</u>:

Debit: Cash: $7,200,000 (Working 8)

Debit: Equity - stock warrants $960,000 (Working 9)

Credit: Common stock - equity $8,160,000

<u>Working 8: </u>

<u>Amount of cash received from the exercise:</u>

Amount of cash received from the exercise = Exercise price per warrant × Number of warrants × Number of bonds × 20%

Amount of cash received from the exercise = $60 × 20 warrants × ($30,000,000/$1,000) × 20%

Amount of cash received from the exercise = $7,200,000

<u>Working 9:</u>

<u>Amount of equity - stock warrants from exercise:</u>

Equity - stock warrants = Total equity stock-warrants × 20%

Equity - stock warrants = $4,800,000 × 20%

Equity - stock warrants = $960,000

<u>Working 10:</u>

<u>Amount of common stock:</u>

Amount of common stock = Cash received + equity - stock warrants

Amount of common stock = $7,200,000 + $960,000

Amount of common stock = $8,160,000

<h3><u>Requirement 2(b)</u></h3>

<u>Prepare the journal entries for Interstate in February 2032, to record the exercise of the warrants.</u>

Solution:

The journal entry is as follows:

Debit: Investment in common stock: $8,160,000 (Working 13)

Credit: Investment in stock warrants: $960,000 (Working 11)

Credit: Cash: $7,200,000 (Working 12)

Working 11:

<u>Amount of equity - stock warrants from exercise:</u>

Equity - stock warrants = Total equity stock-warrants × 20%

Equity - stock warrants = $4,800,000 × 20%

Equity - stock warrants = $960,000

<u>Working 12:</u>

<u>Calculate the amount of cash paid for exercise:</u>

Amount of cash paid for the exercise = Exercise price per warrant × Number of warrants × Number of bonds × 20%

Amount of cash paid for the exercise = $60 × 20 warrants × ($30,000,000/$1,000) × 20%

Amount of cash paid for the exercise = $7,200,000

<u>Working 13:</u>

<u>Investment in common stock:</u>

<u>Amount of common stock:</u>

Investment in common stock = Cash paid + Investment in stock warrants

Investment in common stock = $7,200,000 + $960,000

Investment in common stock = $8,160,000

While JIT systems have many benefits, they:______.

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Option A

Make the logistics function more complicated

Explanation:

The JIT inventory system refers to the Just In Time inventory system.

The just-in-time (JIT) inventory system is a management strategy where warehousing of parts is minimum. Rather, the raw material supply is aligned accurately with the production schedule of a particular good.

For example, in car production, the various car parts are supplied by various manufacturers at just the right time so they can be assembled to make up the car in the assembly line. The car assembly companies may not necessarily have to store raw materials in their ware house since the raw materials arrive "Just in time".

However, aligning the supply of raw materials accurately with production time, is a complicated task especially when a lot of manufacturers are involved and can need to plant down time if care is not taken. This makes the logistics function more complicated.
