Answer:

The correct option is Debit Cash $1,864,097; debit Discount on Bonds Payable $135,903; credit Bonds Payable $2,000,000.

Explanation:

This question is an instance of bonds issued at a discount. This happens when a bond is issued below the face value of the bond and also happens when the coupon rate on the bond payable is less than the market rate.

The face value of the bond payable is $2,000,000 while the market value is $1,864,097, so there is a discount of $2,000,000 - $1,864,097 = $135,903 on the bond payable, which is to be amortized over the life of the bond payable.

So, the appropriate journals to record this transaction is as provided above.

David paid $975,000 for two beachfront lots in coastal South Carolina, with the intention of building residential homes on each.
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

The correct answer would be, Yes South Carolina would be compensating David as his property is now economically valueless.  

Explanation:  

Under the taking clause, 'The Beachfront Management Act was properly and validly designed to preserve South Carolina's beaches', which means that no one will be allowed to do any development project near beaches in order to save the beaches.  

Though it is already written in the Act, The Beachfront Management Act barred any further development on the coasts of Carolina, which makes the purchased property of David as economically valuless, so South Carolina would be compensating him as the law has passed and they won't allow further development but they need to compensate the people who purchased the property on the beaches for the purpose of future business.

The only way a firm can increase its profits is to increase its sales revenue.
djverab [1.8K]
Hi there! The answer is B. False

Increasing its sales revenue is NOT the only way a firm can increase its profits.

A firm can also increase its profit by reducing its total costs. When the sales revenue stays the same and the total cost decreases, the revenue will increase (without an increasing sales revenue).
