Which of the following best describes a trial balance?

Ralph buys a perpetuity due paying 500 annually. He deposits the payments into a savings account earning interest at an effectiv

Leto [7]

Answer:

X = 1523

Explanation

Perpetuity due = (C/r) + C. Where Annual payment C =500, Annual effective interest rate = 10%

Perpetuity due = (500/10%) + 500 = 5500

Value of perpetuity due will remain same after 10 years

Money in saving account can be calculated with FV of an Annuity due formula

FV = C*(1+r) *{(1+r) ^n−1} / r

Where n = 10 years

FV = 500*(1+10%) * {(1+10%)^10 - 1} / 10%

FV = 500*1.10 * [1.10^10 - 1 / 0.10}

FV = 550 * 1.5937424601/0.10

FV = 550 * 15.937424601

FV = 8765.58353055

FV = 8766

Total proceeds = 5500 + 8766 = 14266

Now this proceed is the present value for annual payment of X calculation . Formula of the present value (PV) of annuity due: PV = X * [1- (1+r) ^-n / r] * (1+r) : Where PV = 14266, Annuity payment X = ?, Interest rate r = 10%, Period of annuity = 20 years.

1.10^-20

PV = X * [1- (1+r)^-n / r] * (1+r)

14266 = X * (1 - (1+10%)^-20 / 10%) * (1+10%)

14266 = X * [1 - 0.14864362802/0.10]*1.10

14266 = X * [8.5135637198*1.10]

14266 = X * 9.3649

X = 14266 / 9.3649

X = 1523.347820051469

X = 1523

Serga [27]

Answer:

The correct option is D,$292,500

Explanation:

The unamortized bond discount is the balance of the bond discount left at the end of first year when that year portion of bond discount has been amortized.

In order to ascertain the balance of the unamortized bond discount,we prepare the bond schedule showing how much was amortized in the year as follows:

Bal b/f interest expense at10% coupon payment 9% Bal c/f

$3,995,000 $399,500 $387,000 $4,007,500

The amortized interest is the difference between the interest expense based on the cash proceeds and the coupon payment calculated on the face value of $4.3 million

amortized discount=$399,500-$387,000=$12,500

Total bond discount=$4,300,000-$3,995,000=$305,000

unamortized discount=$305,000-$12,500=$292,500

If the economy booms, Meyer&Co. stock will have a return of 20.4 percent. If the economy goes into a recession, the stock wi

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

The standard deviation of the returns on the stock is 15.56%(Approx).

Explanation:

Expected Return=Respective return*Respective probability

=(20.4*0.67)+(-12.7*0.33)=9.477%

probability Return probability*(Return-Expected Return)^2

0.67 20.4 0.67*(20.4-9.477)^2=79.93899243

0.33 -12.7 0.33*(-12.7-9.477)^2=162.3003786

Total=242.239371%

Standard deviation=[Total probability*(Return-Expected Return)^2/Total probability]^(1/2)

=15.56%(Approx).

A company had a beginning balance in retained earnings of $430,000. It had net income of $60,000 and declared and paid cash divi

ella [17]

Answer:

b. $433,750

Explanation:

The ending balance in retained earnings can be calculated as;

= Beginning balance + Net income - Cash dividends

Given that;

Beginning balance = $430,000

Net income = $60,000

Cash dividends = $56,250

= $430,000 + $60,000 - $56,250

= $433,750

Therefore, the ending balance in retained earnings is $433,750
