Answer:
-$200,000
Explanation:
The cash balance in the cash account at the end of the year is shown by the formula below:
Cash balance at the end of the year=cash flows from operations+cash flow investing activities+cash flows from financing activities+beginning cash balance
Cash balance at the end of the year=$72,000
cash flows from operations=X
cash flow investing activities=$85,000
cash flows from financing activities= $93,000
beginning cash balance=$94,000
cash flow investing activities+cash flows from financing activities+beginning cash balance=$85,000+$93,000+$94,000=$272,000
$72,000=X+$272,000
The above shows that cash flows from operations is a cash outflow not an inflow
X=$72,000-$272,000=-$200,000
A company that makes shopping carts for supermarkets and other stores recently purchased some new equipment that reduces the labor content of the jobs needed to produce the shopping carts. Prior to buying the new equipment, the company used 6 workers, who together produced an average of 100 carts per hour. Workers receive $11 per hour, and machine cost was $40 per hour. With the new equipment, it was possible to transfer one of the workers to another department, and equipment cost increased by $12 per hour, while output increased by 4 carts per hour. a. Compute labor productivity under each system. Use carts per worker per hour as the measure of labor productivity. (Round your answers to 3 decimal places.)
Answer:
A. Labor productivity before=16 cart per workers-hour
Labor productivity After=26 cart per workers-hour
B. Multifactor productivity Before=0.94 carts per hour
Multifactor productivity before=0.94 carts per hour
Explanation:
A. Computation of labor productivity under each system
Labor productivity Before=100 carts per hour/6 workers
Labor productivity Before=16 cart per workers-hour
Labor productivity After=(100 carts per hour+4 carts per hour)/4 workers
Labor productivity After=(104carts per hour /4 workers
Labor productivity After=26 cart per workers-hour
B. Computation of the multifactor productivity under each system.
Multifactor productivity Before=100 carts per hour/(6 workers*$11 per hour)+$40 per hour
Multifactor productivity Before=100 carts per hour/($66 per hour+$40 per hour)
Multifactor productivity Before=100 carts per hour/$106 per hour
Multifactor productivity Before=0.94 carts per hour
Multifactor productivity before=(100carts per hour + 4carts per hour)/(4 workers * $11 per hour$)+($40 per hour+12 per hour)
Multifactor productivity before=(104carts per hour /(4 workers * $11 per hour$)+($40 per hour+12 per hour)
Multifactor productivity before=(104carts per hour /($66 per hour+$52 per hour)
Multifactor productivity before=(104carts per hour /118per hour
Multifactor productivity before=0.94 carts per hour
In a month, Carlos can produce a maximum of either 30 bushels of pears or 15 bushels of apples, or any linear combination in between. Similarly, Donna can produce a maximum of either 20 bushels of pears or 5 bushels of apples, or any linear combination in between.
a. What is the opportunity cost for Carlos to produce one more bushel of apples in terms of pears?
b. What is the opportunity cost for Donna to produce one more bushel of apples in terms of pears?
c. What would Donna and Carlos agree to as acceptable terms of trade?
Answer:
a. What is the opportunity cost for Carlos to produce one more bushel of apples in terms of pears?
opportunity cost to produce 1 more bushel of apples = 30 / 15 = 2 bushels of pears
b. What is the opportunity cost for Donna to produce one more bushel of apples in terms of pears?
opportunity cost to produce 1 more bushel of apples = 20 / 5 = 4 bushels of pears
c. What would Donna and Carlos agree to as acceptable terms of trade?
Donna has a comparative advantage in the production of pears, so she should produce pears and exchange them for apples produced by Carlos.
Any range between 1-2 pears (higher than 1, but lower than 2) exchanged for every apple would result in mutually beneficial trade.
Perot Corporation is developing a new CPU chip based on a new type of technology. Its new chip, the Patay2 chip, will take two years to develop. However, because other chip manufacturers will be able to copy the technology, it will have a market life of two years after it is introduced. Perot expects to be able to price the chip higher in the first year, and it anticipates a significant production cost reduction after the first year as well. The relevant information for developing and selling the Patay2 is given as follows: PATAY2 CHIP PRODUCT ESTIMATES Development cost $ 20,000,000 Pilot testing $ 5,000,000 Debug $ 3,200,000 Ramp-up cost $ 3,000,000 Advance marketing $ 5,400,000 Marketing and support cost $ 1,000,000 per year Unit production cost year 1 $ 655.00 Unit production cost year 2 $ 545.00 Unit price year 1 $ 820.00 Unit price year 2 $ 650.00 Sales and production volume year 1 250,000 Sales and production volume year 2 150,000 Interest rate 10 %
Assume all cash flows occur at the end of each period.
a. What is the net present value (at the discount rate of 10%) of this project? (Negative value should be indicated by a minus sign. Enter your answer in thousands of dollars. Round your answer to the nearest thousand.)
b. Perot’s engineers have determined that spending $10 million more on development will allow them to add even more advanced features. Having a more advanced chip will allow them to price the chip $50 higher in both years ($870 for year 1 and $700 for year 2). What is the NPV of the project if this option is implemented? (Negative value should be indicated by a minus sign. Enter your answer in thousands of dollars. Round your answer to the nearest thousand.)
c. If sales are only 200,000 the first year and 100,000 the second year, what would the NPV of the project be? Assume the development costs and sales price are as originally estimated. (Negative value should be indicated by a minus sign. Enter your answer in thousands of dollars. Round your answer to the nearest thousand.)

Explanation:
a. What is the net present value (at the discount rate of 10%) of this project? (Negative value should be indicated by a minus sign. Enter your answer in thousands of dollars. Round your answer to the nearest thousand.)
Present value of year 1 revenue = (Sales and production volume year 1 * Unit price year 1) / (1 + Discount rate)^1 = (250,000 * $820.00) / (1 + 10%)^1 = $186,363,636.36
Present value of year 2 revenue = (Sales and production volume year 2 * Unit price year 2) / (1 + Discount rate)^2 = (150,000 * $650.00) / (1 + 10%)^2= $80,578,512.40
Year 0 total cost = Development cost + Pilot testing + Debug + Ramp-up cost + Advance marketing = $20,000,000 + $5,000,000 + $3,200,000 + $3,000,000 + $5,400,000 = $36,600,000.00
Present value of Year 1 total cost = (Marketing and support cost + (Sales and production volume year 1* Unit production cost year 1)) / (1 + Discount rate)^1 = ($1,000,000 + (250,000 * $655.00)) / (1 + 10%)^1 = $149,772,727.27
Present value of Year 2 total cost = (Marketing and support cost + (Sales and production volume year 1* Unit production cost year 2)) / (1 + Discount rate)^2 = ($1,000,000 + (150,000 * $545.00)) / (1 + 10%)^2 = $68,388,429.75
Net present value of this project = Present value of year 1 revenue + Present value of year 2 revenue - Year 0 total cost - Present value of Year 1 total cost - Present value of Year 2 total cost = $186,363,636.36 + $80,578,512.40 - $36,600,000.00 - $149,772,727.27 - $68,388,429.75 = $2,180,991.74

Present value of year 2 revenue = (Sales and production volume year 2 * Unit price year 2) / (1 + Discount rate)^2 = (150,000 * $700) / (1 + 10%)^2= $86,776,859.50
Year 0 total cost = Development cost + Pilot testing + Debug + Ramp-up cost + Advance marketing + additional development cost = $20,000,000 + $5,000,000 + $3,200,000 + $3,000,000 + $5,400,000 + $10,000,000 = $46,600,000.00
Present value of Year 1 total cost = as already obtained in part a above = $149,772,727.27
Present value of Year 2 total cost = as already obtained in part a above = $68,388,429.75
Net present value of this project = Present value of year 1 revenue + Present value of year 2 revenue - Year 0 total cost - Present value of Year 1 total cost - Present value of Year 2 total cost = $197,727,272.73 + $86,776,859.50 - $46,600,000.00 - $149,772,727.27 - $68,388,429.75 = $19,742,975.21

A firm has total assets of $162,000, long-term debt of $46,000, stockholders' equity of $95,000, and current liabilities of $21,000. The dividend payout ratio is 60 percent and the profit margin is 8 percent. Assume all assets and current liabilities change spontaneously with sales and the firm is currently operating at full capacity. What is the external financing need if the current sales of $150,000 are projected to increase by 10 percent
Answer:
$8,820
Explanation:
The percentage of sales formula for computing the funding requirement is stated thus:
AFN = (A/S) x (Δ Sales) - (L/S) x (Δ Sales) - (PM x FS x retention ratio)
AFN=additional funds=unknown
A-current level of total assets=$162,000
S- current sales $150,000
=Δ Sales=Change in sales=increase in sales=$150,000*10%=$15000
L-spontaneous liabilities=current liabilities=$21,000
PM-profit margin =8%
retention ratio=1-dividend payout ratio=1-60%=40%
FS-forecast sales =$150,000+$15000=$165,000
AFN =($162,000/$150,000)*$15000))-($21,000/$150,000)*$15000-(8%*$165,000*40%)
AFN =$16,200-$2,100-$5280
AFN=$8,820
For the year ended December 31, 2020, Cullumber Company reported the following: Net income $305000 Preferred dividends declared 50500 Common dividend declared 9100 Unrealized holding loss, net of tax 4800 Retained earnings, beginning balance 420000 Common stock 199400 Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, Beginning Balance 24400 What would Cullumber report as the ending balance of Retained Earnings
Answer:
$665,400
Explanation:
The ending retained earnings are computed by taking the beginning retained earnings alongside the net income for the year while adjusting for both common and preferred stocks dividends
The ending retained earnings=beginning retained earnings+Net income-Preferred dividends-Common dividends
Unrealized holding loss would only have an impact on Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.
The ending retained earnings=420000+305000-50500-9100
The ending retained earnings=$665,400
balance in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income=24400-4800=$19,600
Accountants focus on creating financial statements, whereas finance professionals mostly use these statements to evaluate a firm and answer questions about its performance. Indicate which of the following financial statement would be the most helpful.
a. How much cash is a firm generating through operating, investing, and financing activities?
b. How much debt and equity has the firm issued to finance its assets?
If compensation for senior management is based on short-term performance of the firm, in the short run the firm is likely to:
a. Overstate its earnings
b. Understate its earnings
Answer:
1. The financial statement that would be the most helpful for a finance professional to evaluate how a firm's performance is:
a. How much cash is a firm generating through operating, investing, and financing activities?
2. If compensation for senior management is based on short-term performance of the firm, in the short run the firm is likely to:
a. Overstate its earnings
Explanation:
This financial statement is provided by the Statement of Cash Flows. The statement provides the performance report about a company's liquidity and long-term solvency. The information about how much debt and equity the firm has issued to finance its assets will be obtained from the statement of financial position (known as the balance sheet). This statement does not show the performance of a firm, but its financial position as of a given date.
Linda's AGI for the year is 30,000. Her residence sustained damage from hurricane Maria (a federally declared natural disaster) in the current year: Her adjusted basis in the house: $150,000 Fair market value immediately before Maria $200,000 Fair market value immediately after Maria $180,000 How much will be her deductible casualty loss for the year
Answer: $16900
Explanation:
Her deductible casualty loss for the year would be:
Fair market value = $200,000
Less: FMV after Maria = $180,000
Reduction in the FMV of house = $20,000
Less: 10% of AGI = 10% × $30,000 = 0.1 × $30,000 = $3,000
Remaining Value after deduction = $17,000
Less: $100 deduction = $17000 - $100 = $16900
Therefore, deductible casualty loss for the year is $16,900

Consider the following yields to maturity on various one-year zero-coupon securities: Security: Treasury AAA Corporate BBB Corporate B Corporate Yield (%): 4.6 4.8 5.6 6.2 The price (expressed as a percentage of the face value) of a one-year, zero-coupon, corporate bond with a BBB rating is closest to:
Answer:
94.70%
Explanation:
The computation of the price expressed as a percentage of the face value is given below:
= Price ÷ Face value × 100
= (Face value ÷ (1 + YTM)) ÷ Face value × 100
= ($1,000 ÷ (1 + 5.6%)) ÷ ($1,000) × 100
= $946.97 ÷ $1,000 × 100
= 94.70%
Hence, the price expressed as a percentage of the face value is 94.70%
Here we assume the face value be $1,000

What is a companys obligation to contribute to the sustainability of natural resources
Answer:
Companies have a corporate social responsibility towards their environment.
Explanation:
Corporate social responsibility implies that companies are expected to engage in industrial practices that would not result in harm to their environment. For example, the amount of carbon being released into the environment must be controlled as excessive release of carbon can be detrimental to health. It is also not right for waste to be discharged into the oceans because the health of the sea animals, the ocean itself and those who swim in it are at risk.
To promote sustainability, companies avoid practices that would eventually harm their environment. Abiding by these practices might take a longer route, but is eventually cost effective and beneficial.
Lincoln Company purchased merchandise from Grandville Corp. on September 30, 2021. Payment was made in the form of a noninterest-bearing note requiring Lincoln to make six annual payments of $4,400 on each September 30, beginning on September 30, 2024. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided. Round your final answer to nearest whole dollar amount.) Required: Calculate the amount at which Lincoln should record the note payable and corresponding purchases on September 30, 2021, assuming that an interest rate of 9% properly reflects the time value of money in this situation.
Answer: $16,613
Explanation:
As the noninterest-bearing note required Lincoln to make six annual payments of $4,400, this is an annuity because it is a constant figure.
The amount that should be recorded is the present value of this amount.
Present value of annuity = Annuity * ( 1 - ( 1 + rate) ^ -no. of periods) / rate
= 4,400 * ( 1 - ( 1 + 9%)⁻⁶) / 9%
= $19,738
This present value is for September 30, 2023. It needs to be discounted further to September 30, 2021.
= 19,738 / (1 + 9%)²
= $16,613
Nigel belongs to a wealthy family. He has always enjoyed trying out new gadgets and devices that are launched in the market.

Based on this description, Nigel most likely belongs to the group of:
Incomplete question. The Options;
a. Candidates for elected office
b. Early majority
c. Technology diffusers
d. Innovators
Answer:
b. Early majority
Explanation:
Recall we are told that Nigel loves trying new tech and is "financially well-off", so he falls under the category of those who are termed early majority who quickly try/adopt new technologies.
Also, the early majority are usually "comfortable with the risks and uncertainties associated with" new tech products, thus they are less worried about not deriving value for their money.

Select the statements below that are correct. Choose one or more: A. Conditional factor demands give the profit-maximizing choices of inputs, given the price of output. B. An isocost curve represents all possible combinations of the inputs of production that yield the same cost. C. If the cost of producing y units of output is C dollars, the isoquant for the level of output y must be identical to the isocost for C dollars. D. The cost function measures the minimal cost of producing any level of output, given the costs of the factors of production. E. An isoquant represents all possible combinations of the inputs of production that yield the same level of output.
Answer: B. An isocost curve represents all possible combinations of the inputs of production that yield the same cost.
D. The cost function measures the minimal cost of producing any level of output, given the costs of the factors of production.
E. An isoquant represents all possible combinations of the inputs of production that yield the same level of output.
Explanation:
Option A is incorrect
The conditional factor demand doesn't give the profit maximizing level given the output choices.
Option B is correct
An isocost curve represents all possible combinations of the inputs of production that yield the same cost.
Option C is incorrect
If the cost of producing y units of output is C dollars, it doesn't imply that the isoquant for the level of output y must be identical to the isocost for C dollars.
Option D is correct
The cost function measures the minimal cost of producing any level of output, given the costs of the factors of production.
Option E is correct
An isoquant represents all possible combinations of the inputs of production that yield the same level of output.
Therefore, the correct options are B, D, and E.
Chapter 1 5. Using the present and future value tables in Appendix A, the appropriate calculations on the Garman/Forguecompanion website, or a financial calculator, calculate the following: (a)The amount a person would need to deposit today to be able to withdraw $6,000 each year for ten years from an account earning 6 percent. (b)A person is offered a gift of $5,000 now or $8,000 five years from now. If such funds could be ex-pected to earn 8 percent over the next five years, which is the better choice
Answer:
a. Present value = PV(-PMT, N, I/Y)
Present value = PV(-6000, 10, 6)
Present value = $44,160.52
So, the amount to deposit today = $44,160.52
B: Present Value of choice 1 = $5,000
Choice 2: Present value = PV(FV, N, I/Y)
Present value = PV(8000, 5, 8)
Present value = $5,444.67
Hence, Choice 2 is the better choice since it has higher present value ($5,444.67 > $5,000)
Chelsea verbally agrees to pay $1,000 to Annie for her hair services within thirteen months. Must this agreement be in writing under the statute of frauds? Yes. The one-year rule requires all contracts that cannot be performed within one year to be in writing. No. This scenario is not subject to the statute of frauds. No. This contract would be enforceable, since it is possible Chelsea could pay earlier than a year. None of the above.
Answer:
Yes. The one-year rule requires all contracts that cannot be performed within one year to be in writing.
Explanation:
Indeed, under the 'statute of frauds' concept, contracts involving the sale of land that over $500 and lasts for more than a year must be put in writing.
In other words, according to the 'statute of frauds' legal concept, the contractual agreement made by Chelsea and Annie extends above 1 year and is above $500, and so must be put down in writing.

Explanation:
Each of the above adjustments has effects on the balance sheet and the income statement (through the retained earnings balance). The effects on the assets, liabilities, and equity represent the balance sheet effects. The effects on the retained earnings represent the income statement effects. Since the retained earnings are determined in the income statement and transferred to the balance sheet, we can actually use the accounting equation to depict all the effects as above.
The central bank buys $15,000 worth of bonds in the open market from Christopher, who
deposits the proceeds in his checking account at Carla Bank. The required reserve ratio is
5%.
(a) What is the amount by which Carla Bank's liabilities have changed?
(b) Calculate the change in required reserves for Carla Bank.
(c) What is the dollar value of the maximum amount of new loans Carla Bank can initially
make because of Christopher's deposit?
(d) Based on the central bank's open-market purchase of bonds, calculate the maximum
amount by which the money supply can change throughout the banking system.
(e) How will the change in the money supply in part (d) affect aggregate demand in the short
run? Explain.
Answer:
(a) What is the amount by which Carla Bank's liabilities have changed?
Carla Bank's liabilities increased by $15,000 (bank deposits are liabilities).
(b) Calculate the change in required reserves for Carla Bank.
Carla Bank's reserves must increase by $15,000 x 5% = $750
(c) What is the dollar value of the maximum amount of new loans Carla Bank can initially make because of Christopher's deposit?
Carla Bank can loan $15,000 x 95% = $14,250
(d) Based on the central bank's open-market purchase of bonds, calculate the maximum amount by which the money supply can change throughout the banking system.
Money multiplier = 1 / 5% = 20
The money supply has the potential to increase by $15,000 x 20 = $300,000
(e) How will the change in the money supply in part (d) affect aggregate demand in the short run? Explain.
Aggregate demand will increase since the total money supply increases. This should also help to decrease the interest rates and foster investment.
The amount by which Carla Bank's have changed is increased by $15,000, and the dollar value of the maximum amount of new loan is $14,250.
What are bonds?A bond is a type of security under which the issuer of the bonds build upon the holder a debt, and is obliged or depending on the given terms.
(a).
The amount by which Carla Bank's liabilities have changed is increased by $15,000 because the bank deposits are liabilities, and that have to pay in the market for the bonds.
(b).
The change in required reserves for Carla Bank in that the amount would be increased by $750, mean 5% of the borrowed amount. i.e.,
[tex](\$15,000 \times \frac{5}{100})[/tex]
(c).
The dollar value of the maximum amount of new loans Carla Bank would be initially the 95% of the amount of care loan means $14,250. i.e.,
[tex](\$15,000 \times \frac{95}{100})[/tex]
(d).
Based on the purchase of the central bank open-market of bonds, the maximum amount by which the money supply can change passim the banking system is the money multiplier, it is computed as,
[tex]\text{Money multiplier} = \dfrac{1}{\text{Reserve ratio \%}}\\\\ \test{\text{Money multiplier}} = 20[/tex]
Then, the money supply has the potential to increased by:
[tex]=\text{Loan Value} \times \text{\Money Multiplier}\\\\=\$15,000 \times 20 = \$300,000[/tex]
(e).
The change in the money supply in part (d) affect aggregate demand in the short run, as the aggregate demand will raise. Since the total money supply raises. This should also support to fall the interest rates and foster investment.

Corbel Corporation has two divisions: Division A and Division B. Last month, the company reported a contribution margin of $40,200 for Division A. Division B had a contribution margin ratio of 35% and its sales were $263,000. Net operating income for the company was $33,000 and traceable fixed expenses were $51,100. Corbel Corporation's common fixed expenses were:_______.
Answer:
$48,150
Explanation:
Common Fixed Expenses = Total Controllable Contribution - Net Operating Income - Traceable Fixed Expenses
Where,
Total Controllable Contribution = $132,250
Net Operating Income = $33,000
Traceable Fixed Expenses = $51,100
Therefore,
Common Fixed Expenses = $132,250 - $33,000 - $51,100
= $48,150
A company issued 5%, 20-year bonds with a face amount of $80 million. The market yield for bonds of similar risk and maturity is 6%. Interest is paid semiannually. At what price did the bonds sell?

You are considering opening a donut restaurant aimed primarily at the breakfast market. You plan to sell donuts, coffee, and other items in fixed proportion to one another. For each donut sold, you expect the company to sell two cups of coffee and $2 of other items. You expect to earn $0.50 on each donut, $0.50 on each cup of coffee, and $1.00 on the other items. Salaries, equipment, and rent cost about $100,000 per year. What is the break-even quantity of donuts?
Answer:
Donuts= 28,571
Explanation:
First, we need to determine the sale proportion of each product:
Other items= 2/5= 0.4
Coffe= 2/5= 0.4
Donut= 1/5= 0.2
Now, we can calculate the break-even point in units for the company as a whole:
Break-even point (units)= Total fixed costs / Weighted average contribution margin
Break-even point (units)= 100,000 / (0.5*0.2 + 0.5*0.4 + 1*0.4)
Break-even point (units)= 100,000 / 0.7
Break-even point (units)= 142,857 units
Now, the number of donuts:
Donuts= 0.2*142,857
Donuts= 28,571

Suppose two projects have the same expected business value. Project A has a very high estimated business value along with a high probability of failure. Project B has a much lower estimated business value along with a low probability of failure. If you could do only one of the projects, which one would you choose and under what conditions
Answer:
Project B has a much lower estimated business value along with a low probability of failure.
Explanation:
In order to do only one type of project that has the same business values. I would choose a project that has a low probability of failure. Though it has a low value but in the long run will lead to economic profit and shareholders value. For selection, we need to find out the benefits gained by the project.If a person could choose only one project he must select Project B as it has a much lower estimated business value along with a low probability of failure.
What are the selection criteria for the project?Project B would be a better option to choose as it is giving less risk to business as compared to Project B in terms of failure. However, the value of Project B is less but it has the potential to generate economic profits in the long run.
Therefore, by evaluating the cost and benefit from two projects shareholder's interest would be intact more through Project B.

g Your financial advisor offers you two different investment options. Plan A offers a $17,000 annual payment, in perpetuity. Plan B offers $30,000 annual payments for 18 years. Both plans will make their first payment one year from today. What discount rate would make you indifferent to these two plans
Answer:
4.76%
Explanation:
The requirement in this question is determining the discount rate which gives the same present value in both cases since discount rates discount future cash flows to present value terms.
PV of a pertuity=annual cash flow/discount rate
PV of a pertuity=$17,000/r
PV of ordinary annuity=annual cash flow*(1-(1+r)^-n/r
PV of ordinary annuity=$30,000*(1-(1+r)^-18/r
$17,000/r=$30,000*(1-(1+r)^-18/r
multiply boths side by r
17000=30,000*(1-(1+r)^-18
divide both sides by 30000
17000/30000=1-(1+r)^-18
0.566666667=1-(1+r)^-18
by rearraging the equation we have the below
(1+r)^-18=1-0.566666667
(1+r)^-18=0.433333333
divide indices on both sides by -18
1+r=(0.433333333)^(1/-18)
1+r=1.047554315
r=1.047554315-1
r=4.76%
The Cinci Company issues $100,000, 10% bonds at 103 on April 1, 2020. The bonds are dated January 1, 2020 and mature eight years from that date. Straight-line amortization is used. Interest is paid annually each December 31. Compute the bond carrying value as of December 31, 2023.
Answer:
$101,593.75
Explanation:
Total amortization period = 8 Years = 8 x 12 = 96 months
Number of months of Amortization = 9 months in 2020 + (3*12 months) till 2023 = 9 months + 36 months = 45 months
Premium on bonds payable = Issue Price - Face Value
Premium on bonds payable = ($100,000*103%) - $100,000
Premium on bonds payable = $103,000 - $100,000
Premium on bonds payable = $3,000
Unamortized premium = Premium on bonds payable - Amortized premium
Unamortized premium = $3,000 - $3,000*45/96
Unamortized premium = $3,000 - $1,406.25
Unamortized premium = $1,593.75
Carrying value on December 31,2023 = $100,000 + $1,593.75
Carrying value on December 31,2023 = $101,593.75
