rosijanka [135]

Answer:

The answer is 60%

Explanation:

Labor force is the total number of people that have job(employed) and the number of people who are willing, able and actively searching for job(unemployed) in a population.

Labor force participation rate is calculated by dividing the labor force by the noninstitutionalized population.

Labor force = employed + underemployed + unemployed

= 96 + 31 + 8

=135 million

So we have:

(135 ÷ 243) x 100 percent.

60% (the nearest whole percentage)

amm1812

Answer:

Oriole Company

Journal Entries:

July 1:

Debit Cash Account $2,336,000

Credit Common Stock $1,460,000

Credit Paid-in In Excess of Common Stock $876,000

To record the issuance of 146,000 shares of common stock, par $10 at $16 per share.

December 15:

Debit Retained Earnings $445,000

Stock Dividends Payable $445,000

To record the declaration of a 10% stock dividend.

Explanation:

a) Stockholders of record on December 31, 2020:

Number of shares in issue at beginning 299,000

Number of shares issued on July 1          146,000

Total                                                          445,000

10% of 445,000 = 44,500 shares

b) Stock Dividends declared on December 15 will result to the issuance of 44,500 shares to stockholders.  To finance this stock dividend, the Retained Earnings account is debited while the Stock Dividends Payable is credited.  When the shares are issued on January 15, the Stock Dividends Payable (Distributable) will be debited and the Common Stock credited with the par value.  The market price of $17 does not affect the company's records.

A bond with a coupon rate of 7% makes semiannual coupon payments on January 15 and July 15 of each year. The Wall Street Journal
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

The invoice price of the bond will be $100,127.88

Explanation:

Bonds are nothing but the debt instrument which a company uses to raise capital from the general public, these bonds can be of both short and long term period.

In the question it is given that bond has a coupon period of 182 days which means the bond is of short term period. Coupon rate of 7% means the bond gives the interest of 7% to its holder semiannually every year on January 15 and July 15.

It is given that the ask price for the bond on January 30 is 100.125 percent on par value of the bond which we are assuming to be $1000, which means the ask price is

$1000 X 100.125 = $100,125    ( ASK PRICE)

now we have to calculate the interest, remember the semiannually payment of interest has already been made on January 15 which means we have to find interest for only 15 days which will be taken out on par value

INTEREST = $1000 x 7% x 15 / 30

                 = $1000 x .07 x 1/ 2

                 = $35

INVOICE PRICE = INTEREST X \frac{TOTAL \: NUMBER \: OF \: DAYS}{COUPON \: PERIOD}   + Ask price

        =  $35 X 15 / 182

        = $2.884

Now adding this amount in to ask price

$100,125 + $2.884

= $100,127.88  ( INVOICE PRICE)
