Answer:

the company should produce 5,200 / 0.5 = 10,400 beds, resulting in a gross profit of $3,692,000

Explanation:

The numbers are missing, so i looked them up:

                             sales price          variable costs       machine hours

Couches                    $550                    $350                    0.333

Beds                          $750                    $395                     0.5

total machine hours = 5,200

the constraint here is machine hours, so we must determine the contribution margin per machine hour:

  • couches = $200 / 0.333 = $600
  • beds = $355 / 0.5 = $710

since the contribution margin per machine hour is higher for beds, then the company should produce 5,200 / 0.5 = 10,400 beds, resulting in a gross profit of $3,692,000

A bond has a face value of $1,000, a coupon of 4% paid annually, a maturity of 30 years, and a yield to maturity of 7%. What rat
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

-11.8%

Explanation:

the key to answer this question is to remember that valuation of a bond depends basically of calculating the present value of a series of cash flows, so let´s think about a bond as if you were a lender so you will get interest by the money you lend (coupon) and at the end of n years you will get back the money you lend at the beginnin (principal), so applying math we have the bond value given by:

price=\frac{principal*coupon}{(1+i)^{1} }+ \frac{principal*coupon}{(1+i)^{2} } \frac{principal*coupon}{(1+i)^{3} }+...+\frac{principal+principal*coupon}{(1+i)^{n} }

so in this particular case that one year later there are 29 years to maturity so we have:

price=\frac{1,000*0.04}{(1+0.08)^{1} }+ \frac{1,000*0.04}{(1+0.08)^{2} } \frac{1000*0.04}{(1+0.08)^{3} }+...+\frac{1,000+1,000*0.04}{(1+0.08)^{30} }

price=553.6638

so as we have a higher rate the investment has the next return:

return=\frac{553.66}{627.73} -1

return=-11.8\%

On December 31, 2021, Gardner Company holds debt securities classified as HTM with a face amount of $100,000 and a carrying valu
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

there are no options, but the journal entry should be:

Dr Cash 2,500

Dr Investment in bonds 350

    Cr interest revenue 2,850

Explanation:

Since the bonds' carrying value is less than the face value, it means that Gardner Company purchased them at a discount. When the bonds were purchased, the investment in bonds account's balance was not $100,000 (the par value), instead it was recorded at the lower amount at which they were purchased. As coupon payments are received, the discount on the bonds is amortized and their carrying value should increase until it reaches par value on maturity date.

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The adjusting journal entry to record bad debt expense for the year:

Debit Bad debts expense $13,831

Credit Allowance for doubtful accounts  $13,831

Explanation:

Blossom Company uses the percentage-of-receivables basis to record bad debt expense.

At the end of the year, Accounts receivable are $419,300 and 4% of accounts receivable will become uncollectible.

Estimated uncollectible = $419,300 x 4% = $16,772

Before adjusting, the allowance for doubtful accounts has a credit balance of $2,941.

Bad debts expense = $16,772 - $2,941 = $13,831

The adjusting journal entry:

Debit Bad debts expense $13,831

Credit Allowance for doubtful accounts  $13,831
