Therefore that the curve in the graphic will be downward sloping due to the decrease of the prices in the costs implicating the amount that the company is handling.
Use the graph to answer the following:

Downing Company issues $4,000,000, 8%, 5-year bonds dated January 1, 2020 on January 1, 2020 (ten periods). The bonds pay interest semiannually on June 30 and December 31. The bonds are issued to yield 5%. What are the proceeds from the bond issue?
Answer:
$4,525,123.84
Explanation:
The computation of the proceeds from the issuance of the bond is shown below:
Given that
Face Value of Bonds = $4,000,000
Annual Coupon Rate = 8%
So, Semiannual Coupon Rate = 4%
So, Semiannual Coupon = 4% × $4,000,000
= $160,000
Time to Maturity = 5 years
So, Semiannual Period = 10
And,
Annual Interest Rate = 5%
So, Semiannual Interest Rate = 2.5%
Now the proceeds from the issuance of the bond is
= $160,0000 × PVIFA(2.5%, 10) + $4,000,000 × PVIF(2.5%, 10)
= $160,000 × 8.752064 + $4,000,000 × 0.78120
= $1,400,330.23 + $3,124,793.61
= $4,525,123.84
Blue Spruce Corp. incurs the following expenditures in purchasing a truck:
Cash price $53,000
Accident insurance $3,800
Sales taxes $3,400
Motor vehicle license $100
Painting and lettering $400.
What is the cost of the truck?
Answer:
$56,800
Explanation:
The cost of the truck is calculated as;
= Cash price + Sales tax + Painting and lettering
Given that;
Cash price = $53,000
Sales tax = $3,400
Painting and lettering = $400
= $53,000 + $3,400 + $400
= $56,800
Therefore, cost of the truck is $56,800.
* Note
The expenditures for accident insurance and motor vehicle license will not be added to the cost of the truck.

Cash outflows for McKinney Publishing in 2020 included:________. $347,000 in salaries to authors. $180,000 in fees to contracted editors. $83,000 to obtain copyrights for 15 new books. $1.3 million to purchase a new printing warehouse. $560,000 to upgrade current printing equipment. How much of these cash outflows will McKinney Enterprises expense?
Answer: $527,000

Copyrights obtained = $83,000
Purchase of a new printing warehouse = 1.3 million
Upgrade of current printing equipment = $560,000

= Salaries to authors + Fees to contracted editors
= $347,000 + $180,000
= $527,000
Paul Corporation reported net income of $260,000 during the current calendar year. The company had 10,000 common shares outstanding on January 1 and sold an additional 6,000 shares on July 1. What is the company’s basic EPS?
Answer:
the company’s basic EPS is $37.14
Explanation:
Basic Earnings per share = Earnings attributable to holders of common stock ÷ Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks
Step 1 : Calculation of Earnings attributable to holders of common stock
This is given. It is the Net Income during the current year of $260,000

Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks 7,000
Therefore,
Basic Earnings per share = $260,000 ÷ 7,000
= $37.14

Raven Company has a target of earning $71,200 pre-tax income. The contribution margin ratio is 16%. What amount of dollar sales must be achieved to reach the goal if fixed costs are $38,400
Answer:
$685,000
Explanation:
First and foremost, the formula for determining the contribution margin ratio can be used to determine the target dollars sales as shown below:
contribution margin ratio=contibution margin/sales revenue
contribution margin ratio=16%
contribution margin required=pretax income+fixed costs
contribution margin required=$71,200+$38,400=$109,600
16%=$109,600/sales revenue
16%*sales revenue=$109,600
sales revenue=$109,600/16%
sales revenue=$685,000
Joe's Mart policy is to have 20% of the next month's sales on hand at the end of the current month.

= September sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
= 31,000 + 41,000 × 20% - 31,000 × 20%
= 31,000 + 8,200 - 6,200
= 33,000 units
This is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options
hence, the number of units purchased in September is 33,000 units

To this day, many companies believe that service is a cost rather than a revenue producer. Why might they hold this view? How would you argue the opposite view?
Answer: Difficulty involved in tracing the link between service and financial returns.
Explanation:
Many companies believe that service is a cost rather than a revenue producer due to the following reasons;
- There is this difficulty in tracing the link between service and financial returns.
- Profits are not directly linked to service provided most times, so it seems as though the service rendered was a cost rather than a revenue
- When service is rendeded most times, the results are not seen immediately, as it would require time to get tvalue and profit for what was done.

What amount of cash does each partner receive as a result of this liquidation?Multiple ChoicePlaya, $16,000; Bahia, $23,000; Arco, $24,000.Playa, $19,200; Bahia, $14,400; Arco, $14,400.Playa, $6,000; Bahia, $4,500; Arco, $4,500.Playa, $10,000; Bahia, $18,500; Arco, $19,500.
Answer:
Playa, $10,000; Bahia, $18,500; Arco, $19,500.
Explanation:
Cash $33,000
Other assets $100,000
Total $133,000
Liabilities $50,000
Playa, capital (40%) $24,000
Bahia, capital (30%) $29,000
Arco, capital (30%) $30,000
Total $133,000
other assets sold for $80,000 resulting in a $20,000 loss
cash = $33,000 + $80,000 = $113,000
- liabilities ($50,000)
$63,000
- liquidation expenses ($15,000)
remaining cash $48,000
total loss = $20,000 + $15,000 = $35,000
partners' share of loss:
Playa = $14,000
Bahia = $10,500
Arco = $10,500
remaining capital accounts:
Playa = $24,000 - $14,000 = $10,000
Bahia = $29,000 - $10,500 = $18,500
Arco = $30,000 - $10,500 = $19,500

Suppose that a country's economy is operating at an unemployment rate 6% higher than its natural rate of unemployment. Then a(n) __________ exists and government should _________.a. inflationary gap; increase spendingb. inflationary gap; decrease spendingc. recessionary gap; increase spendingd. recessionary gap; decrease spending
Answer:
c. recessionary gap; increase spending
Explanation:
When the country's economy is operating at an unemployment rate that is higher than its natural rate of unemployment, that means a lower level of consumer demand due to the fact that more number of people don't have jobs. Which in turn implies lower production level and thus lower GDP and thus causes a recessionary gap. In order to fill this recessionary gap the government should increase spending so as to boost money into the economy which will then boost consumer demand and thereby production level will increase and in turn will fill the gap.

Classify each statement according to whether it will increase the equilibrium level of human capital investments or decrease the equilibrium level of human capital investments.
Answer:
Congress votes to double the amount of federally subsidized student loans - this will increase the equilibrium level of human capital investments because higher education is one of the most effective ways that people can use to increase their human capital.
