Answer:
The answer is option D
Explanation:
The bond can be issued at par, at a discount or at a premium depending on the coupon rate and the market interest. The price of the bond which pays semi annual coupon can be calculated using the formula of bond price. The formula to calculate the price of the bond is attached.
First we need to determine the semi annual coupon payment, periods and YTM.
Semi annual coupon payments = 2000000 * 0.1 * 6/12 = 100000
Semi annual periods = 5 * 2 = 10
Semi annual YTM = 0.08 * 6/12 = 0.04
Bond Price = 100000 * [(1 - (1+0.04)^-10) / 0.04] + 2000000 / (1+0.04)^10
Bond Price = $2162217.916
The price of the bond is thus $2162290 approx. The difference in answers is due to rounding off.

Answer:
Investment revenue = $52,000
Explanation:
Since Puff uses the equity method, the original journal entry to record the purchase of 40% of the shares should have been:
Dr Investment in Straw 400,000
Cr Cash 400,000
After one year, Straw earned $150,000 in net income, but it also had equipment with a fair market value higher than carrying value also depreciable by $100,000. So the net income must be adjusted = $150,000 - ($100,000 x 20%) = $130,000. The journal entry to record the adjusted income should be ($130,000 x 40%):
Dr Investment in Straw 52,000
Cr Investment revenue 52,000
Answer:
$842
Explanation:
The computation of the One year from now bond C should sell is shown below;
But before that we have to determined the expected yield to maturity for bond C in one year :
So,
1.0799^3 = 1.06 x (1 + r)^2
1.188 = (1 + r)^2
√1.188 = √(1 + r)^2
1.08999 = 1 + r
r = 0.08999
= 9%
Now
the yield to maturity = (future value ÷ present value)^0.5 - 1
0.09 + 1 = ($1,000 ÷ value in 1 year)^0.5
1.09 = ($1,000 ÷ value in 1 year)^0.5
1.09^2 = $1,000 ÷ value in 1 year
So,
value in 1 year is
= $1,000 ÷ 1.09^2
= $1,000 ÷ 1.1881
= $841.68
≈ $842
