Answer:

$470,425

Explanation:

The computation of the amount reported as bond payable is shown below:

<u>Particulars  Interest at 4.5% Interest at 5%  Amortized  UnAmortized  CV</u>

<u>                                                                             discount     discount </u>

Starting value                                                                        $30,500  $469,500    

                                                              ($500,000 - $469,500)  

June 30         $22,500         $23,475                $975        $29,525  $470,425

  ($500,000 × 4.5%)            ($469500 × 5%)

The six months rate would be the half of the rates given in the question

Answer:

The right solution is "Not Deductible".

Explanation:

If everyone's investigation for a company or starting a company fails, costs classified into two broad categories besides you:

  • Unless you're a person and your effort to start a company isn't successful, there are 2 kinds of investments you have had in attempting to develop yourself in the company.
  • The expenses clients used to have before you made an intention to open a particular business. These would be personal but non-deductible charges. They include other expenses incurred throughout a regular search for something like a company or equity investment opportunity or perhaps a thorough investigation into it.
  • The expenditures you have in your effort to purchase or launch a particular venture. Such charges are capital expenditures, and that as a capital loss, you will subtract them.

scoray [572]

Answer:  To remove bias when estimating the proportion of working adults living in urban, suburban, and rural areas.

Explanation: In simple words, stratification refers to the process in which different sections of the society are grouped on the basis of one or more general factors.

In the given case, the company wants to estimate the minutes of working adults in the region and the region is grouped into urban, suburban and rural.

Thus, the random selection from different regions is done so that no bias takes place regarding the number of adult working in these three different areas.

Alja [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

interest rates on a three-year bond =(int in year1+int in year2+int in year3)/n =  (3+4.5+6)/3 =4.8%

interest rates on a six-year bond = (3%+4.5%+6% +7.5%+ 9%+ 10.5%)/6 = 7.35%

interest rates on a nine-year bond = (3%+4.5%+ 6%+ 7.5%+ 9%+ 10.5%+ 13%+ 14.5%+16%)/9 =10.23%

So, int rate on a 3 year bond is 4.8%; on a 6 year bond is 7.35%; on a 9 year bond 10.23%

Which of these is an acceptable less hazardous method of cleaning than solvents?
Olin [163]

Answer:

I guess that this depends on what you want to clean, but my choice is

  • using a dishwasher

E.g. if you are a mechanic and you need to clean auto parts (which are dirty and greasy), then a hot soap washer is very useful. A hot soap washer is basically a dishwasher that works with hot pressurized water. Generally, detergent is much less hazardous than solvents. This method applies to all the objects that can be moved into the sink in order to be washed.

If you want to clean things at home, the same applies. The least hazardous cleaning method is using hot water and detergent.

A pressurized water hose may be a solution to certain issues, e.g. clean bird poop on top of a car or a sidewalk. If you can mechanically clean something (use a broom or vacuum cleaner), then there is no reason why you would need a solvent. Using disposable wipes only increases the amount of waste that you generate.
