B)
A-1
78,400,000 + 26,667 = 78,426,667
A-2
80,800,000 - 13,333 = 80,786,667
C)
the effective interest rate is higher under A-1 as the company is paying the same nominal amount of $4,000,000 every six months but, received less cash for the bonds in A-1 case making the effective rate higher .
Explanation:
A-1 issued at 98 points
cash received:
80,000,000 x 98/100 = 78,400,000
discount on bonds: 80,000,000 - 78,400,000 = 1,600,000
On Dec 31st we solve for accrued discoutn and interest:
amortization
1,600,000 / 40 payment = 40,000 per payment
proportional amortization: 40,000 x 4/6 (month accrued) = 26,667
interest paid
principal x rate x time
80,000,000 x 10% x 4/12 = 2,666,667
payment:
8,000,000 x 10% x 6/12 = 4,000,000
proportional amortization: 40,000 x 2/6 (month accrued) = 13,333
accrued interest 8,000,000 x 10% x 2/12 = 1,333,333
A-2 we issue a 101 point
cash received:
80,000,000 x 101/100 = 80,800,000
premuim on bonds: 800,000
On Dec 31st we solve for accrued discount and interest:
amortization
800,000 / 40 payment = 20,000 per payment
proportional amortization: 20,000 x 4/6 (month accrued) = 13,333
interest paid
principal x rate x time
80,000,000 x 10% x 4/12 = 2,666,667
payment:
8,000,000 x 10% x 6/12 = 4,000,000
proportional amortization: 40,000 x 2/6 (month accrued) = 6,667
accrued interest 8,000,000 x 10% x 2/12 = 1,333,333

g you are eligible for a 30 year fixed rate home mortgage with 3.6% interest rate what is the maximum loan you can get
Answer:
the maximum loan is $379,417
Explanation:
The computation of the maximum loan is shown below:
As we know that
Maximum Loan = Present Value of all monthly Payments
= $1,725 × PVAF(0.3%,360 months)
= $1,725 × [1- (1+0.003)^-360] ÷ 0.003
= $1,725 × 219.9517
= $379,417
hence, the maximum loan is $379,417
Here the interest rate is divided by 12 and the months should be multiplied by 12 as this is the case of monthly basis

Demarco and Janine Jackson have been married for 20 years and have four children who qualify as their dependents (Damarcus, Janine, Michael, and Candice). The couple received salary income of $100,000 and qualified business income of $10,000 from an investment in a partnership, and they sold their home this year. They initially purchased the home three years ago for $200,000 and they sold it for $250,000. The gain on the sale qualified for the exclusion from the sale of a principal residence. The Jacksons incurred $16,500 of itemized deductions, and they had $3,550 withheld from their paychecks for federal taxes. They are also allowed to claim a child tax credit for each of their children. However, because Candice is 18 years of age, the Jacksons may only claim the child tax credit for other qualifying dependents for Candice. (Use the tax rate schedules.)
Comprehensive Problem 4-55 Parts-c through f
a. What would their taxable income be if their itemized deductions totaled $28,000 instead of $16,500?
b. What would their taxable income be if they had $0 itemized deductions and $6,000 of for AGI deductions?
c. Assume the original facts but now suppose the Jacksons also incurred a loss of $5,000 on the sale of some of their investment assets. What effect does the $5,000 loss have on their taxable income?
Answer:
a. Taxable income = $80,000
b. Taxable income = $77,600
c. Taxable income = $80,600
Explanation:
Taxable income refers to the amount of income that is used to determine the amount of tax that will be paid to the government by an individual or firm in given year. The taxable income is arrived at after all the relevant addition and allowable deductions have been made.
The requirements are therefore answered as follows:
a. What would their taxable income be if their itemized deductions totaled $28,000 instead of $16,500?
Note: See part a of the attached excel file see the effect on taxable income.
The itemized deductions total of $28,000 instead of $16,500 makes the taxable income to be $80,000.
In the attached excel file, the following calculations is used:
Qualified business income deduction = Qualified business income * Parentage of deduction allowed = $10,000 * 20% = $2,000
b. What would their taxable income be if they had $0 itemized deductions and $6,000 of for AGI deductions?
Note: See part b of the attached excel file for the calculations of the taxable income.
This makes the taxable income to be equal to $77,600.
c. Assume the original facts but now suppose the Jacksons also incurred a loss of $5,000 on the sale of some of their investment assets. What effect does the $5,000 loss have on their taxable income?
Note: See part c of the attached excel file for the calculations of the taxable income.
The loss of loss of $5,000 on the sale of some of their investment assets incurred by the Jacksons is capital loss.
For tax purposes, capital loss of can be deducted as a loss on tax return by tax payers with a maximum of $3,000 to be deducted per year.
Therefore, the Jacksons will deduct $3,000 as a capital loss from their tax return, and the effect of this is to reduce the taxable income by $3,000.
This makes the taxable income to be equal to $80,600.

TOTAL ASSETS =Total of liabilities + Total stockholders' equity
Initial equity $750,000
Income $18,000
($82,000-$64,000)
Dividends ($3,000)
12/31 Total stockholders' equity $765,000
Add Liabilities of $120,000
Total ASSETS $885,000

If the college strictly enforces the rent ceiling of $250 a month, the on-campus housing market is
Answer: B. inefficient; the rent ceiling has no effect on the number of rooms rented
Explanation:
If the college strictly enforces the rent ceiling of $250 a month, the on-campus housing market is inefficient because the rent ceiling has no effect on the number of rooms rented.
An efficient market will see equilibrium supply meting equilibrium demand and this is not the case in this market because the supply seems to stay the same regardless of the demand.
This market is inefficient because supply does not react to the rent paid and is always the same. This is why a rent ceiling of $250 had no effect on the market in terms of supply. Efficient markets should see both supply and demand reacting to price so that a mutually beneficial equilibrium can be reached.

Debit Amortization Expense - Patent $4,400,000
Credit Accumulated Amortization-Patent $4,400,000
To record the revised amortization expense for the year.
Explanation:
Data and Calculations:
Patent's value on January 1, 2012 = $19,800,000
Patent's assessed lifespan = 9 years
Amortization expense for each year on straight-line = $2,200,000 ($19,800,000/9)
Accumulated Amortization for Patent = $6,600,000 (for 3 years)
Net book value of patent = $13,200,000 ($19,800,000 - $6,600,000)
Revised lifespan = 6 years
Revised amortization expense per year = $4,400,000 ($13,200,000/3)

Dom has $90,000 that he wishes to invest now in order to use the accumulation for purchasing a retirement annuity in five years. After consulting with his financial advisor, he has been offered four types of fixed-income investments, labeled as investments A, B, C, and D.
Investments A and B are available at the beginning of each of the next five years (call them years 1–5). Each dollar invested in A at the beginning of a year returns $1.20 (a profit of $0.20) two years later, in time for immediate reinvestment. Each dollar invested in B at the beginning of a year returns $1.36 three years later.
Investments C and D will each be available just once in the future. Each dollar invested in C at the beginning of year 2 returns $1.66 at the end of year 5. Each dollar invested in D at the beginning of year 5 returns $1.12 at the end of year 5.
Your uncle is obligated to make a balloon payment on an existing loan in the amount of $24,000 at the end of year 3. He wants to make that payment out of the investment account.
1) Devise an investment plan for your uncle that maximizes the value of the investment account at the end of five years. How much money will be available for the annuity in five years?
2) Show the network diagram corresponding to the solution in (1). That is, label each of the arcs in the solution and verify that the flows are consistent with the given information.
Answer:
First of all, you must invest enough money in B in order to pay your debt.
present value = future value / expected return
present value = $24,000 / $1.36 = $17,647.06
you have $90,000 - $17,647.06 = $72,352.94 to invest in A.
at the end of year 2, you will have:
future value = present value x expected return = $72,352.94 x $1.20 = $86,823.53
then you should invest that money ($86,823.53) in invested D and at the end of year 4 you will have:
future value = $86,823.53 x $1.66 = $144,127.06
finally, you should invest $144,127.06 in investment E and at the end of ear 5 you will have:

leased the asset on a 2-year lease, the payment would be $110 at the begin- ning of each year. If RC borrowed and bought, the bank would charge 10% interest on the loan. In either case, the equipment is worth nothing after 2 years and will be discarded. Should RC lease or buy the equipment?
Answer:
you should purchase the asset using a bank loan
Explanation:
in order to compare both options, we need to determine the present value of each alternative:
present value of lease costs:
cash flow year 0 = $110
cash flow year 1 = $110
PV = $110 + $110/1.1 = $110 + $100 = $210
present value of purchasing the equipment:
cash flow year 0 = $0
cash flow year 1 = $115.24
cash flow year 2 = $115.24
PV = $200
if you consider the tax shield of leasing = ($220 - $200) x tax rate = $20 x 40% = $8
the tax shield of interest expense = ($230.48 - $200) x tax rate = $30.48 x 40% = $12.19
It doesn't matter how you analyze this, buying is a better and cheaper option. The problem with leasing is that you need to make an immediate payment, while if you borrow money, then the first payment is made in the future. The time value of money is different.
If the price level increases by 2 percent each year, the inflation rate is increasing. a. True b. False
Answer: False
Explanation:
Inflation refers to the general rise in prices of goods and services in an economy. It erodes the value of currency because with inflation, one is able to buy less goods.
If the inflation rate increases by 2% each year then the inflation rate is not increasing. The inflation rate is remaining constant at 2%. The inflation rate would be increasing if the prices increased by 2% then by 4% then by 6%. That way the inflation rate would be increasing by 2% every year.
If the rate at which prices are increasing is constant then, the inflation rate is the same.
You are considering four hotels that differ from each other with respect to their price and customer reviews:
Answer: H4
Explanation:
Looking at the reviews given per price, a conclusion can be made that the higher the price of staying in the hotel, the higher the ratings given which would imply that the hotels charging higher, have better amenities.
This does not hold for H4 however as they are charging more than H1 but still getting the same reviews as them.
This could either mean that H1 is efficient enough to be getting the same rating for the same price as H4 or that H4 is inefficient such that they are not utilizing their amenities enough to get a higher rating than H1 who they should be better than.
Either scenario point to inefficiency on H4's part.
Question 6 of 10
Which economic tool would most likely be used as part of a contractionary
monetary policy?
A. Lowering interest on reserves
B. Reducing the discount rate
C. Raising the reserve requirement
D. Buying treasury securities
Answer:
C. Raising the reserve requirement
Explanation:
Contractionary monetary policy refers to the Fed's action of reducing money supply in the economy. Reducing the money supply slows down the economy, thereby countering expansion and inflationary pressures. Raising the reserve requirement is one tool that the Fed uses as a contractionary monetary policy.
Reserve requirements refer to the percentage of customer deposits that the Fed requires commercial banks to maintain at all times. An increase in reserve requirement decreases the money available for banks to lend out. Reduced lending means a decrease in the money supply, which results in a decline in the inflation rate.
Regency Inn leased a rental office in the lobby of its hotel to Americar, a car rental agency. Wagner rented a car from Americar, and while walking through the hotel parking lot to reach her rental car, she was robbed and raped. Wagner sued Regency Inn for damages, alleging that they maintained a public nuisance. A clause in the lease held that Americar was responsible to indemnify Regency Inn for any damages suffered due to the operation of the car rental agency. At the time of the assault on Wagner, Americar was a holdover tenant.
Can Regency Inn claim indemnification under these conditions? Wagner v. Regency Inn Corp., 463 N.W.2d 450 (1990).
Answer:
The court ruled against both Americar and Regency Inn, and then Regency Inn won its case against Americar. The nuisance case itself is pretty unpleasant, so it's not worth referring to it.
The fundamentals for the ruling against Americar were that they themselves had drafted the lease agreement and that the clause included in the lease agreement by which they agreed to indemnify Regency Inn was valid. The original lease term had already expired, but Americar continued to lease the offices on a monthly basis. Since they never left the place, the clauses in the original agreement were still valid even though the lease changed to a monthly basis. I.e. if you sign a lease contract and after the original contract is over, you continue to lease the same place, then the clauses from the original contract still apply.
The clause stated that Americar was liable for damages that took place on the leased premises or in their proximity, i.e. the area near their offices. The parking lot was considered to be in the proximity of Americar's offices.

Answer:
the numbers are missing, so i looked for a similar question to fill in the blanks:
Trade Mart has recently had lackluster sales. The rate of inventory turnover has? dropped, and the merchandise is gathering dust. At the same time, competition has forced Trade Mart's suppliers to lower the prices that Trade Mart will pay when it replaces its inventory. It is now December 31, 2016, and the current replacement cost Trade Mart's ending inventory is $75,000 below what Trade Mart actually paid for the goods, which was $200,000.
Before any adjustments at the end of the? period, the Cost of Goods Sold account has a balance of $$820,000.
a. What accounting action should take in this situation?
lower-of-cost-or-market rule to account for inventories.the adjustment entry should be:
Dr Cost of goods sold 75,000
Cr Inventory 75,000
b. The net realizable value of ending inventory is?
equal to actual cost, so must write down inventory to match net realizable valueEnding inventory = $200,000 - $75,000 = $125,000
