Answer: it would be too large of an unnecessary expense

There are different resources or factors of production needed by the company. Human capital and physical capital like faster computers are some of them.

Answer:

1. c.$124,000

2. e.$46,000

Explanation:

The Fuller company has issued two bonds with separate coupons. The liability for unredeemed bond at December 31, 2012 is $124,000.

The value of bond when issued is $720,000

Value of bond at expiration date is $300,000

720,000 / 300,000 = 2.4

2.4 * 190,000 = 456,000 / 3.67 years

= $124,000

Case corporation has issued bond with value 94 issued at par with 10% coupon rate.

Using the amortization bond table we get $46,000.

$(100000 / 94 ) * 10% = 106.38 * 5 years

= 5,319.20 * 8.64 amortizing rate

= $46,000
