Bond payable Dr $78,000
Loss on redemption Dr $5,265
Discount on bonds payable Cr $1,755
Cash. Cr 81,510
Explanation:
Bonds issued at 97%
$390,000 × 97%
= $378,300
Discount difference between cash proceeds and face value
= $390,000 -$378,300
= $11,700
If bonds are discounted using straight line,
$11,700 ÷ 20 year
= $585
At 2022, there is 5 amortization
= $585 × 5
= $2,925
Discount value
= $11,700 - $2,925
= $8,775
Carrying value
= $390,000 - $8,775
= $381,225
Therefore, $390,000 bonds payable × 20% × 104.5%
= $81,510
Carrying book value of 20%
$381,225 × 20%
= $76,245
Loss on redemption
= $81,510 - $76,245
= $5,265
Therefore,
20% of the face value
= $390,000 × 20%
= $78,000
20% of the discount
= $8,775 × 20%
= $1,755
Loss on redemption = $5,265
Cash disbursement = $81,510

Company A was sued by Company B. The management of Company A feels that it is probable that it will have to pay the full amount to Company 8. What is the effect of this contingent event on Company A's accounting equation?
a. Increase liabilities and decrease stockholders' equity.
b. Increase assets and increase stockholders' equity.
c. No effect on the accounting equation.
d. Decrease assets and decrease liabilities.
Answer: a. Increase liabilities and decrease stockholders' equity.
Explanation:
Contingent Liabilities are obligations that the company may owe if a future event happens such as them being ruled against in a case in court.
Contingent Liabilities are to be recorded in the financial statements only when it is probable that it will happen and that the amount to be paid is reasonably estimable.
Company A's management feels like the loss is probable and that they would have to pay the full amount to company B which means that the loss is both likely and estimable.
Company A should therefore increase their liabilities and debit loss which will come from the Equity thereby reducing it.
A publishing company sells 1,250,000 copies of certain books each year. It costs the company $1 to store each book for a year. Each time it must print additional copies, it costs the company $250 to set up the presses. How many books should the company produce during each printing in order to minimize its total storage and setup costs
Answer:
The Company should produce 25,000 books
Explanation:
The production size that minimizes total storage and setup costs is known as the optimum batch size.
Optimum batch size = √(2 × Annual Production Demand × Set up Cost) / Storage Cost per unit
= √ (2 × 1,250,000 × $250) / $1
= 25,000 books
Conclusion :
The Company should produce 25,000 books during each printing in order to minimize its total storage and setup costs.
Costs that are capitalized because they are expected to have future value are called product costs; costs that are expensed are called period costs. This classification is important because it affects the amount of costs expensed in the income statement and the amount of costs assigned to inventory on the balance sheet. Product costs are commonly made up of direct materials, direct labor, and overhead. Period costs include selling and administrative expenses.
A service company has which of the following costs
a. Direct Material
b. Overhead Costs
c. Product Costs
d. Expensed in the period incurred
Answer:
b. Overhead Costs
d. Expensed in the period incurred
Explanation:
-Direct material refers to the cost of the material used to manufacture a product.
-Overhead costs are the costs related to the operation of the business and they can't be assigned to a good or service.
-Product Costs are the costs to manufacture a product.
-Expensed in the period incurred are the period costs which are costs not related to the production of a good.
According to these definitions, a service company has the following costs: overhead costs and expensed in the period incurred because these are costs that are not related to the creation of a product.
On the other hand, the other options direct material and product costs are not right because these costs are directly related to products.
"Frank bought a house for $100,000. He put 20% down and borrowed the rest from the bank. However, the value of the house has now increased to $160,000 and he has paid off $20,000 of the bank loan. What is the equity that Frank has in his home
Answer:
$100,000
Explanation:
The computation of the equity in his home is shown below;
Given that
Increased in the value of the house = $160,000
And, the amount he has to paid is
= Borrowed amount - down payment
= $80,000 - ($100,000 × 20%)
= $80,000 - $20,000
= $60,000
So, the equity is
= $160,000 - $60,000
= $100,000
hence, the equity value is $100,000
Answer:
The equity that Frank has in his home is $100000
Explanation:
The purchase price of house = $100000
The down payment = 20% or $100000 ×20% = $20000
The remaining amount paid by bank = $80000
The increased value of house = $160,000
Payment of loan amount = $20000
The Value of house is $160000 and he pays $20000 to the bank as a part of loan payment so reaming amount that he has to pay the bank is ($80000-20000) = $60000.
Thus, his equity will be $100000.
perline, inc., has balance sheet equity of $6.2 million.At the same time, the income statement shows net income of $948600. The company paid dividends of $493272 and has 100000 shares of stock outstanding. If the benchmark PE ratio is 26, what is the target stock price in one year?
Answer:
The target stock price in one year is $264.75
Explanation:
We first calculate the ROE as below
ROE= Earnings / Book value of Equity
ROE= $948,600 / $6,200,000
ROE= 0.153
The payout ratio is:
b= Dividend / Net income
b = $493,272 / $948,600
b = 0.52
So the sustainable growth rate is:
g = ROE * (1-b)
g = 0.153 * (1-0.52)
g = 0.153 * 0.48
g = 0.07344
The earning in the first year are
EPS1 = $948,600 / 100,000 * (1 + 0.07344)
EPS1 = $9.486 * 1.07344
EPS1 = $10.1827
According to the benchmark PE ratio, the target stock price in one year is
Price = EPS1 * 26
Price = $10.1827 * 26
Price = $264.75

Due to numerous lawsuits, major chemical manufacturer has recently experienced a market reevaluation. The firm has 15-year, 8% coupon bond, paid semiannually and par value of $1,000. The required nominal rate (yield) on this debt has now risen to 10%. What is the current price of this bond?
Answer:
Bond Price = 846.2754897 rounded off to $846.28
Explanation:
To calculate the price of the bond, we need to first calculate the coupon payment per period. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is a semi annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and semi annual YTM will be,
Coupon Payment (C) = 0.08 * 1/2 * 1000 = $40
Total periods (n)= 15 * 2 = 30
r or YTM = 10% * 1/2 = 5% or 0.05
The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.
Bond Price = 40 * [( 1 - (1+0.05)^-30) / 0.05] + 1000 / (1+0.05)^30
Bond Price = 846.2754897 rounded off to $846.28

Today’s business headlines frequently cite pensions being underfunded, thus costing companies more in contributions to their pension fund as well as pensioners risking not receiving what they had planned for retirement. This has been caused by underperformance of the pension fund itself and the over promising of benefits to retirees. Take the following example:_______.
Assume $20m was invested today to provide for pension payments for a group of employees. Assume also that the average return on these funds was 8.5%
1. How big will the fund be in 25 years?
2. Suppose at year 12 the fund decreased in value by 30%. What returns would be required for the next 13 years to achieve the 25 year amount?
3. Advisor's counseled the company that a conservative investment return of 6% annually for the next 13 years would be advisable and that the company would have to contribute annually to make up the shortfall. How much would have to be contributed annually beginning year 13 if the fund earned 6% in order to achieve the 25 year goal?
Please show the method used to solve this problem.
Answer:
1) in 25 years, the pension fund should equal:
future value = present value x (1 + interest rate)ⁿ
FV = $20,000,000 x (1 + 8.5%)²⁵ = $153,735,247
2) the value in 12 years = $20,000,000 x (1 - 30%) = $14,000,000
future value = present value x (1 + interest rate)ⁿ
$153,735,247 = $14,000,000 x (1 + interest rate)¹³
(1 + interest rate)¹³ = $153,735,247 / $14,000,000 = 10.981
¹³√(1 + interest rate)¹³ = ¹³√10.981
1 + interest rate = 1.2024
interest rate = 1.2024 - 1 = 20.24%
3) if the fund only earns 6%, in 13 years it will be worth:
FV = $14,000,000 (1 + 6%)¹³ = $29,860,996
so you need $153,735,247 - $29,860,996 = $123,874,251 more
we need to use the future value of an annuity formula:
FV of an annuity = annuity payment x annuity factor
FV of an annuity = $123,874,251annuity payment = ?annuity factor (6%, 13 periods) = 18.882annuity payment = $123,874,251 / 18.882 = $6,560,441
White Lion Homebuilders is considering investing in a one-year project that requires an initial investment of $475,000. To do so, it will have to issue new common stock and will incur a flotation cost of 2.00%. At the end of the year, the project is expected to produce a cash inflow of $595,000. The rate of return that White Lion expects to earn on its project (net of its flotation costs) is:___________.
Answer:
22.81%
Explanation:
The computation of the rate of return is shown below:
= (cash inflow ÷ total cost) - 1
where,
Cash inflow is $595,000
And, the total cost is
= $475,000 + $475,000 × 2%
= $475,000 + $9,500
= $484,500
So, the rate of return is
= ($595,000 ÷ $484,500) - 1
= 22.81%
Hence, the rate of return is 22.81%
Basically we applied the above formulas
