Many businesses borrow money during periods of increased business activity to finance inventory and accounts receivable. For example, Mattel builds up its inventory to meet the needs of retailers selling to Christmas shoppers. A large portion of Mattel's sales are on credit. As a result, Mattel often collects cash from its sales several months after Christmas. Assume on November 1, 2018, Mattel borrowed $6 million cash from Metropolitan Bank and signed a promissory note that matures in six months. The interest rate was 8.0 percent payable at maturity. The accounting period ends December 31.

Required:
1, 2 & 3. Prepare the required journal entries to record the note on November 1, 2018, interest on the maturity date, April 30, 2019, assuming that interest has not been recorded since December 31, 2018

Answer:

$67

Explanation:

Calculation for the buyer's net savings for the two transaction

Buyer's net savings=($10,100 × .01) − ($10,100 × .06 × 20 days/360)

Buyer's net savings=$101-$34

Buyer's net savings=$67

Note that 10th day of the discount period less 30th day of the invoice will gives 20 days while 360 days represent the number of days in a year

Therefore the buyer's net savings for the two transaction will be $67

Answer:

no option is correct, since the market value of the bond is $866.32

if the bond matured in 2 years instead of 3, then option B. $911.37 would be correct = $1,000 / [(1.046)x(1.052)] = $911.366 = $911.37

Explanation:

in order to determine the market value of the bond we need to determine the present value of its face value:

market value = PV = future value / [(1 + i₁) x (1 + i₂) x (1 + i₃)]

future value = $1,000

[(1 + i₁) x (1 + i₂) x (1 + i₃)] = [(1 + 4.6%) x (1 + 4.9%) x (1 + 5.2%)] = 1.154311

PV = $1,000 / 1.154311 = $866.32

Answer:

Because they are more riskier and have higher rates of return.

Explanation:

Answer: 980

Explanation:

The number of units of inventory that the storage area must be able to​ hold will be calculated as:

Demand = 100 × 300 = 30000

Production rate per day = 500

Setup cost = $200

Annual holding cost = $10

We then use the economic order quantity formula to solve and the answer will be gotten as 1225

The maximum inventory will now be:

= EQQ × (1-d/p)

= 1225 × (1-100/500)

= 1225 × ( 1 - 0.2)

= 1225 × 0.8

= 980

Answer: $1,304.30

Explanation:

Current price can be calculated by the formula:

= 1,300 * ( 1 + (4% - 2%)) ^ 2/12 months

= 1,300 * 1.0033058903246372019414946658385

= $1,304.29

= $1,304.30

Answer:

substitution and income effects will counteract each other totally

Explanation:

A labor supply curve is an economic analysis tool that shows the number or workers that are available to work or that can work at various wage rates.

The labor supply curve can either be bending backwards or sloping downwards or upward curving but it shows the relationship between labour and wage rates.

A labor supply curve can be affected by factors such as population, changes in social behaviour, opportunities in other markets, among other things.

From the above question, it is seen that a change in wage rate for Anthony from $25 to $29 does not affect his work hours positively of negatively. His work hours is the same despite the increase in hourly wage.

The effect of the Anthony sticking to 40 hours of work despite an increase in wage, which could have served as some motivation for him to put in more hours is his labor curve remains same. An increase in wage has done noting to affect the number of hours he works and as such his income vs work rate counters each other.

Cheers.

Answer:

I'd say a BBB bond is better

The BBB-rated municipal bond will have a higher yield-to-maturity. The appropriate response is BBB-rated municipal bond .

BBB-rated bonds are regarded as medium-grade debt. They are neither poorly secured nor well protected. Interest payments and principal security seem sufficient at this time, but some protective components may not exist or may prove unreliable in the future.

For less hazardous bonds, investment grade ratings are typically BBB- or higher; ratings below BBB- are non-investment grade ratings (for riskier bonds). Non-investment grade may be substituted with the terms "speculative" or "high yield".

When capital preservation is the main goal, bonds rated "BBB," "Baa," or better are typically thought of as appropriate investments. Many municipal bonds are backed by insurance plans that ensure repayment in the case of default to allay investor concerns.

Answer:

Margin of safety ratio= 0.12

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales= 1,250 units

Break-even point in sales= $13,200

Selling price= $12

First, we need to determine the current sales in dollars:

Sales in dollars= 1,250*12= $15,000

Now, the margin of safety ratio:

Margin of safety ratio= (current sales level - break-even point)/current sales level

Margin of safety ratio= (15,000 - 13,200) / 15,000

Margin of safety ratio= 0.12

Answer:

what

Explanation:

please write the question properly I can't understand it

Answer:

Target Corporation

a) Gross profit ratio = 28.4%

b) Inventory turnover ratio = 5.9 times

c) Indication: Target Corporation is more profitable at 28.4% gross margin ratio than the industry average of 24.5%.  But, it sells its inventory, 5.9 times in a year, which is less frequently than the industry average of 7.1 times.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Target Corporation Financials for 2018:

Sales = $74,433 million

Cost of Sales = $53,299 million

Gross profit = $21,134 million ($74,433 - $53,299)

Beginning Inventory = $8,597 million

Ending Inventory = $9,497 million

b) Gross profit ratio = Gross profit/Sales * 100

= $21,134/$74,433 * 100

= 28.4%

c) Inventory turnover ratio = Cost of Sales/Average Inventory

= $53,299/$9,047

= 5.89

= 5.9 times

d) Average Inventory = (Beginning Inventory + Ending Inventory)/2

= ($8,597 + 9,497)/2

= $9,047 million

Answer:

C. $1.475

Explanation:

Initial cost of Machine X = $10,000

Annual maintenance cost = $200

Salvage value = $1,000

Interest rate = 8%

Useful life = 12 years

Calculation of the equivalent uniform annual cost

EUAC = Initial cost of the machine X (A/P, i, n) + Annual maintenance cost - salvage value(A/F, i, n)

EUAC = 10,000(A/P, 8%, 12) + 200 - 1,000(A/F, 8%, 12)

EUAC = [10,000 * 0.1327] + 200 - [1,000 * 0.0527]

EUAC = 1,327 + 200 - 52.7

EUAC = 1,474.30

Answer:

True

Explanation:

An accurate inventory of the record helps us to ensure that you always have the high-demand items on-hand, so that you would never come up short. An accurate inventory record also allows you to follow the sales trends, so that you can differentiate between the fast-moving and the slow-moving products. Keeping reports of the monthly inventory record helps us understand what stocks are doing well, and versus which are just taking up the shelf space. The lack of the right inventory can mean back orders and excess inventory which consequently drive up the costs. Thus, Inventory records help determine how many items of material, components, and sub-assemblies need to be ordered to make the final product.

Answer:

barriers to entry in monopoly but not in monopolistic competition.

Explanation:

Imagine a situation where a monopolistically competitive firm is doing very well and is able to earn economic profit (profits higher than normal) in the short run. Since this company is earning higher than normal profits, other companies will enter the market and start competing against them hoping to get a piece of that abnormally high gain. As more competitors enter the market, economic profits will start to decrease until finally they are eliminated.

Since monopolies do not face competition, they can earn economic profits in the long run.
