Answer:

B) The fair value of the expected contingent payment increases goodwill at the acquisition date.

Explanation:

Goodwill refers to the excess paid over fair market value by a company that buys another company. In this case Dosmann Inc. paid a higher value than fair market value for the acquisition of Lizzi Corporation.

Dosmann agreed to pay an extra $110,000 to Lizzi's previous owners if the company earned more money than expected (over 10% rate of return over  fair value of assets). Since Lizzi actually did earn more than the expected RoR, then Dosmann must pay the extra money to Lizzi's previous owners. This extra $110,000 will increase the goodwill that Dosmann paid for Lizzi.

jek_recluse [69]

Answer: $0

Explanation:

Forward contracts get their value from the cost and on December 1, there was no cost to Curtis as he Curtis had just signed the contract.

This means that the amount that should be recorded for the Forward Contract should be $0. Even though the contract is valued at $0, it will still need to be credited against the amount to be received to at least recognize that a forward contract was entered into.

Suppose you borrowed $37,000 at a rate of 9.0% and must repay it in 4 equal installments at the end of each of the next 4 years.
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

C = 11,420.7405

Explanation:

Loan for 37,000 at 9% in four annual payment

We have to calculate the cuota of an annuity

C * \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time}}{rate} = PV\\

where rate = 0.09

time = 4

and present value is the 37,000 we receive today

C \times \frac{1-(1+0.09)^{-4}}{0.09} = 37,000\\\\\frac{37,000}{3.239719877} = C

C = 11,420.7405

Someone with dollar bills to lend will never agree to make a loan with a nominal interest rate of less than zero because:
saw5 [17]
<span>Having a nominal interest rate less than 0 would mean that a depositor pays a bank to hold its money. If the annual nominal interest rate is negative 1 percent, a deposit of $1000 dollar would come out $10 dollar short the following year which is why someone with dollar bills will never agree to loan with a nominal interest rate that is negative percent.
