1. Did any Enron employees act Unethical in any manner? If so, give specific examples.

1 answer:

8 0

Enron faced an ethical accounting scandal in 2001 after using “mark-to-market” accounting to fake their profits and misused special purpose entities, or SPEs. Enron worked to make their losses seem less than they actually were, and “cooked the books” to make their income look much higher than it was.

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

hello your question has a missing journal entry table attached below is the entry journal table completely filled

Explanation:

Amount of bonds acquired = 40% of original bond

i) Bonds payable = 40% * 1,300,000

= $520000

purchase price of bonds = $520000 * 96% ( FACE VALUE )

= $499200

hence the annual amortization

(bonds payable - purchase price of bonds ) / 10 years - 2 years

(520000 - 499200 ) / 8 = $20800/8 = $2600

ii) premium on bonds payable

$20800 - $2600 = $18200

cash amount = $520000 * 8% = $41600

intra entity expense and income table is attached below

from the table

iii) intra-entity interest expense = $39000 and the

iv) intra-entity interest income = $44200

v) investment in bonds

purchase price of bonds + annual amortization

= $499200 + $2600 = $501800

the book value on bonds as at 1st January 2011

=$1300000 * 105% = $1365000

Premium on bonds as at January 1st 2011

= $1365000 - $1300000 = $65000

amortization of premium as at January 1st 2011

=( ($65000) / 10 years ) * 2 years

= $13000

hence the controlling interest in bonds payable = $540800

vi) gains on retirement bonds

= $540800 - $499200 = $41600

attached below is the journal entry on 31st December 2013

There are two universities, A and B, in a city. Tuition rises at University A and, as a result, the demand for attending Univers

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Substitutes

Explanation:

The education services at the two universities are substitutes to each other. The cross price elasticity of substitute goods is positive which indicates that as the price of one good increases then as a result the demand for other good increases and if the price of one good decreases then as a result the demand for other good decreases.

Now, if there is an increase in the tuition fees at University A, hence, this will increase the price of educational services at University A. Therefore, this will lead to an increase in the demand for educational services at University B.

Fynjy0 [20]

You get kind of a credit every time you buy something from the card issuer. that means you borrow money for the purchase you make from the card issuer with the promise to pay them at the end of the month (or whenever your contract tells you to). it's easy to switch credit cards and there are a lot of free contracts out there. better give your credit card number to someone you don't trust than your bank account number. cause in case of a fraud you can just change credit card. changing the bank account is a lot harder than changing credit card (plus the card issuer has the problem of not getting their money. not you)
