The annual interest rate for this note that would earn the interest of $160 is 8%.

In order to solve this problem, we have to use the interest rate formula

InterestRate = P*R *T

<u>where</u>

  • P = Principal
  • R= Rate
  • T = Time

We divide 90 days by the total days in a year

= 90/365

= 0.2466

<u>Principle * time</u>

= 0.2466 * 8000 = 1972.6

The annual interest rate

= 160/1972.6

= 0.081

= 8%

a) Data and Calculations:

Face value of bonds = $70,000

Issuance value = $70,000

Interest rate on bonds = 7%

Market interest rate = 7%

Period of bonds = 10 years

Payment period = semiannually

Issue date = January 1, 2021

June 30:

Semiannual interest rate = 3.5% (7%/2)

Interest Expense = $2,450 ($70,000 * 3.5%)

Cash payment for interest = $2,450

No amortization of discounts or premiums

December 31:

Semiannual interest rate = 3.5% (7%/2)

Interest Expense = $2,450 ($70,000 * 3.5%)

Cash payment for interest = $2,450

No amortization of discounts or premiums

a) Data and Calculations:

Interest rate on bonds = 7%

Market interest rate = 8%

Period of bonds = 15 years

Payment period = semiannually

Issue date = January 1, 2015

June 30, 2015:

Semiannual interest rate = 3.5% (7%/2)

Interest Expense = $2,557.92 ($63,948 * 4%)

Amortization of bonds discounts = $107.92 ($2,557.92 - $2,450)

Cash payment for interest = $2,450 ($70,000 * 3.5%)

December 31, 2015:

Semiannual interest rate = 3.5% (7%/2)

Interest Expense = $2,562.24 (($63,948 + 107.92) * 4%)

Amortization of bonds discounts = $112.24 ($2,562.24 - $2,450)

Cash payment for interest = $2,450 ($70,000 * 3.5%)

3. Pretzelmania, Inc., issues 7%, 15-year bonds with a face amount of $70,000 for $76,860 on January 1, 2015. The market interest rate for bonds of similar risk and maturity is 6%. Interest is paid semiannually on June 30 and December 31.

Amortization of bonds premium = $144.20 ($2,450 - $2,305.80)

December 31:

Semiannual interest rate = 3.5% (7%/2)

Cash payment for interest = $2,450 ($70,000 * 3.5%)

Interest Expense = $2,301.50 (($76,860 -144.20) * 3%)

Selected information from Gerrard, Inc.’s financial activities in the year 2004 was as follows: Net income was $330,000. The tax
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

$0.26

Explanation:

diluted earnings per share (EPS) = (net income - preferred dividends) / (weighted average outstanding shares + diluted shares)

net income = $330,000

preferred dividends = 2,000 x $500 x 8% = $80,000. Since the preferred stocks are convertible, they will be considered diluted shares. Therefore, no preferred dividends will be included in the calculation.

weighted average outstanding shares:

  • January 1 = 700,000 x 12/12 = 700,000
  • March 1 = 200,000 x 10/12 = 166,666.7
  • total weighted average = 866,666.7

diluted shares = 2,000 preferred stocks x 200 = 400,000

diluted EPS = $330,000 / (866,666.7 + 400,000) = $0.260526247 ≈ $0.26

Suppose a basket of goods and services has been selected to calculate the CPI and 2012 has been selected as the base year. In 20
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer: 2016 CPI is 110

Explanation:

Given the following :

Base year = 2012

Cost of basket in 2012 = $50

Cost of basket in 2014 = $52

Coat of basket in 2016 = $55

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is calculated using the formula :

CPI = (weighted cost item in current period / weighted cost of item in base period) × 100

Base period / year = 2012

Current period = 2016

Therefore, 2016 CPI equals;

($55 / $50) × 100

= 110

Scilla [17]

Answer a. Estimate a population proportion.

Explanation:

A population proportion denotes a specific attribute of a population measured in percentage, the above analysis is on losing weight by the populace.

A mean only refers to the average of the population without reference to a particular quality.
