TEA [102]

The answer is true. A monopoly is where a company, a group or individual has the power of controlling or possessing supply or trade while patent is where the government provides authority or license. If the monopoly is considered to be bad, the patent will also be bad as it is associated with a particular thing that has a purpose of doing bad since a patent is the agreement, the patent is likely to allow the monopoly do something that is bad or illegal as monopoly has the purpose of doing something bad.

(Lessee-Lessor Entries, Sales-Type Lease; Guaranteed Residual Value) Phelps Company leases a building to Walsh, Inc. on January

Artist 52 [7]

Solution and Explanation:

Calculation of Minimum lease annual payments from (MLP)

Year MLP from lessor Present value Present valur of

point of view factor 8% cash flows

1 $4,703 $1 /(1.08)=0925$ $4,350.28

2 $4,703 $1 /(1.08)^{\wedge} 2=0.857$ $4,030.47

3 $4,703 $1 /(1.08)^{\wedge} 3=0.793$ $3,729.48

4 $4,703 $1 /(1.08)^{\wedge} 4=0.735$ $3,456.71

5 $4,703 $1 /(1.08)^{\wedge} 5=0.680$ $3,198.04

Total of Minimum

lease Payments $23,515 $ 18,764.97

Add

Unguaranteed

residual value(ugrv) 4000 $1 /(1.08)^{\wedge 5}=0.680$ $2,720.00

Asset to be recorded

in the books of lessor

(sum of mlp +ugrv) $27,515 $ 21,484.97

Here

Gross Investment=$27515

Lease receivable recorded in in the books of lessor(Phelps)(Mimum lease payments + Unguaranteed residual )value = $21484 $21,484

Walsh (lessee) shoiuld be recorded the amount of present value of minimum lease payments + Guaranteed Residual value=$18764.97 as asset and liabilty

b) In the books of phelps (lessor)

2017.01.01 Lease Recievble from walsh ….Dr $21,484

to Asset $21,484

(Being Lease receivable recorded )

In the books of Walsh (lessee)

2017.01.01 Asset ac ……………Dr $18,764

to Lease Liabilty(Lessor) $18,764

(Being the asset and liabilty recorded )

2017.12.31 Depreciation ……Dr 3752

to Asset 3752

(Beint Depreciation recorded charged during the year recorded 18764/5 provided for 5 years)

Here annual payment started from the at the beginning of year i.e annual lease payments start from 01.01.2018.

c) If expected residual value of $4000 is guaranteed by walsh no changes will be made in classification of lease and there is no chages in asset recorded in Lessor books. But changes will be made in the books of lessee as present value of guaranteed residual value should be added to asset I.e $18764+Present vlue of $4000 $18764+2720=21484

d) If expected residual value of $3000 is guaranteed by walsh no changes will be made in classification of lease and there is no chages in asset recorded in Lessor books But changes will be made in the books of lessee as present value of guaranteed residual value should be added to asset I.e $18764+Present vlue of $3000 $18764+$2040=$20804

New corporate bond issues in excess of $50,000,000 are:________.

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer: C. II and III

Explanation:

Under the Security Act of 1933, new corporate bond issues of such high amounts are not exempt from the Act and so need to be registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Also, as the amount exceeds $50,000,000, the issue is subject to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 which states that the issuer should include certain protective provisions that are recommended by the SEC in order to protect bondholders. The adherence to these covenants will then be monitored by an independent trustee that is to be appointed by the Issuer.
