You are a real estate owner in Bloomington Indiana and you have rented a house to students. You expect to make 6% per year on th
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

The present value of the contract is 0.5% higher if the rent is paid at the beginning of the month. That is equal to $11.28 for every $100 of rent.

Explanation:

if the rent is paid at the beginning of the month, the present value of the lease contract will be:

PV = monthly rent x PV annuity due factor

we are not given the monthly rent, but we know the PV annuity due factor for 0.5% and 24 periods = 22.67568

if the rent is paid at the end of the month, the PV = monthly rent x PV ordinary annuity factor

the PV ordinary annuity factor, 0.5%, 24 periods = 22.56287

assuming that the rent is $100 (just to calculate a %), the PV of an annuity due = $2,267.57

the PV of an ordinary annuity = $2,256.29

the difference between them = [($2,267.57 / $2,256.29) - 1] x 100 = 0.5%

liberstina [14]
Retained Earnings = $86,000

Accounting Equation…Assets= Liabilities + Owners Equity

Assets (Cash, acct rec, equipment, building, land) = $421,000

Liabilities (Notes payable, accounts payable)= $260,000

Equity (capital stock) = $75,000

Liabilities + Equity= $335,000

Retained Earnings flows into equity

$421,000-$335,000= $86,000

$335,000+86,000= $421,000

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

b. The same as it would have been if the original payment had been debited initially to an expense account

Explanation:

We can use an example to explain this:

original journal entry to record a 3 year insurance policy on January 1 is:

Dr Prepaid insurance 3,600

    Cr Cash 3,600

Adjusting entry on December 31

Dr Insurance expense 1,200

    Cr Prepaid insurance 1,200

balance of prepaid insurance = $3,600 - $1,200 = $2,400

If instead of recording prepaid insurance on January 1, you recorded insurance expense:

Dr Insurance expense 3,600

    Cr Cash 3,600

Adjusting entry on December 31

Dr Prepaid insurance 2,400

    Cr Insurance expense 2,400

balance of prepaid insurance = $2,400

In the short run, if average variable cost equals $50, average total cost equals $75, and output equals 100, the total fixed cos
musickatia [10]

Answer: $2500

Explanation:

From the question,

Average variable cost(AVC) = $50

Average total cost (ATC) = $75

Output (Q) = 100

Since Average fixed cost is the difference between the average total cost and the average Variable cost. This will be:

AFC = ATC - AVC

AFC = $75 - $50

AFC = $25

We should note that:

AFC = TFC / Q

TFC = AFC × Q

TFC = $25 × 100

TFC = $2500

Therefore, total fixed cost is $2500
