Amortization of a discount on a bond payable will make the amount of interest expense reported on the income statement less than the cash paid for that year.

False, bond interest expense is greater when a bond is sold at a discount because when the bond was issued, the market rate was higher than the stated rate. So interest expense will be greater than the interest payment when a bond is sold at a discount.

Answers will vary. The budgeting process provides financial managers with much of the information they need for financial planning. The budgeted income statement and budgeted balance sheet are two key financial planning tools. Also called pro forma financial statements, they provide a framework for analyzing the impact of the firm's plans on the financing needs of the company. The budgeted income statement uses information from the sales budget and various cost budgets (as well as other assumptions) to develop a forecast of net income for the planning period. This can help the firm evaluate how much internal financing (funds generated by earnings) will be available. The budgeted balance sheet forecasts the types and amounts of assets a firm will need to implement its future plans. It also helps financial managers determine the amount of additional financing (liabilities and owners' equity) the firm must arrange to acquire those assets.

170. Describe the two major types of pro forma financial statements, and explain the role they play in financial planning.

Answers will vary. The money that customers owe a firm when they buy on credit shows up in accounts receivable on the company's balance sheet. A factor buys the accounts receivables of other firms. The factor makes a profit by purchasing the receivables at a discount and collecting the full amount from the firm's customers. Although firms that use factors don't receive the full amount their customers owe, factoring offers some definite advantages. Instead of having to wait for customers to pay, the firm gets its money almost immediately. Also, since the factor is responsible for collection efforts, the firm using the factor may be able to save money by eliminating its own collection department. Finally, the factor typically assumes the risk for bad debts on any receivables it buys.

171. Explain the role a factor plays in providing short-term financing to a firm.

Answers will vary. For corporations, equity financing comes from two major sources: retained earnings and money directly invested by stockholders who purchase newly issued stock. Equity financing is more flexible and less risky than debt financing. Unlike debt, equity imposes no required payments. A firm can skip dividend payments to stockholders without having to worry that it will be pushed into bankruptcy. And a firm doesn't have to agree to burdensome covenants to acquire equity funds. On the other hand, equity financing doesn't yield the same tax benefits as debt financing. In addition, existing owners might not want a firm to issue more stock, since doing so might dilute their share of ownership. Finally, a company that relies mainly on equity financing forgoes the opportunity to use financial leverage.

172. Explain the advantages and disadvantages of equity financing.

Answers will vary. One of the most challenging aspects of the evaluation of a long-term project's cash flows is that they are spread out over a number of years. When financial managers compare cash flows that occur at different times, they must take the time value of money into account. The time value of money reflects the fact that, from a financial manager's perspective, a dollar received today is worth more than a dollar received in the future because the sooner you receive a sum of money, the sooner you can put that money to work to earn even more money. Because money has a time value, a cash flow's value depends not only on the amount of cash received but also on when it is received. Financial managers compare cash flows occurring at different times by converting them to their present values. The present value of a cash flow received in a future time period is the amount of money that, if invested today at an assumed rate of interest (called the discount rate), would grow to become that future amount of money.

173. Explain how the accounting process can be used for a long-term project's cash flows that are spread out over a number of years.

Answers will vary. The most commonly used method to evaluate capital budgeting proposals is to compute their net present value (NPV). The NPV of an investment proposal is found by adding the present values of all of its estimated future cash flows and subtracting the initial cost of the investment from the sum. A positive NPV means that the present value of the expected cash flows from the project is greater than the cost of the project. In other words, the benefits from the project exceed its cost. Financial managers approve projects with positive NPVs. A negative NPV means that the present value of the expected future cash flows from the project is less than the cost of the investment. This would indicate that the cost of the project outweighs its cash flow benefits. Financial managers would reject proposals with negative NPVs.

174. Describe how net present value (NPV) is used to evaluate capital budgeting proposals.

c. liquidity ratios

The cash paid for interest on bonds payable is calculated as: Multiple Choice Face amount times the stated interest rate. Carrying value times the market interest rate. Face amount times the market interest rate. Carrying value times the stated interest rate.

Face amount times the stated interest rate.

The related interest expense for the period is determined by multiplying the stated interest rate by the book value of the bond at the beginning of the current period.

False, the bond carrying amount (bond liability, book value) is multiplied by the market rate of interest not the stated rate.

The issue price of a bond is the discounted present value of the principal and the present value of the cash interest to be received over the life of the bonds discounted by the stated or coupon rate.

False, the issue price of a bond is determined by using the market rate of interest to present value the cash flows not the stated rate

Item17 3.7 points Time Remaining 11 minutes 10 seconds 00:11:10 Item 17 Item 17 3.7 points Time Remaining 11 minutes 10 seconds 00:11:10 If bonds are issued at a discount, interest expense will be Lower than cash interest paid. Higher than cash interest paid. Equal to cash interest paid. Lower or higher depending on current market interest rates.

Higher than cash interest paid.

For a bond issued at a discount, carrying Value _______ over time

INCREASES

If bonds are issued at a discount, over the life of the bonds, the carrying value will: Increase. Decrease. Stay the same. Depend on the current market interest rate.

Increase.

if bonds are issued at a discount, over the life of the bonds, interest expense will: Decrease. Increase. Remain unchanged. The effect cannot be determined from the information given.

Increase.

What is the bond carrying amount?

It is the bond liability. (Face amount + unamortized bond premium) or (Face amount - unamortized bond discount), if there is no premium or discount then the bond carrying amount = face amount. By definition face amount and bond payable are the same thing...but face amount and bond liability is NOT the same thing.

If a bond is sold at a discount what will happen to interest expense each payment? Will it stay the same, increase, or decrease each payment?

It will increase each payment because the bond liability is increasing (increasing bond liability x market rate = increasing interest expense).

If a $10,000 ten year bond is sold at face what will its bond carrying amount be at the end of the fifth year?

It'll be the $10,000 face amount (bond principal, maturity value) because when a bond is issued at face, there isn't a premium or discount to deal with; the bond carrying amount will equal the face amount the whole life of the bond.

Note Payable

Liability represents by a legal document called a note the describes pertinent details such as principal amount, interest charges, maturity date, and collateral

Interest expense is calculated using what rate?

MARKET rate

Current Ratio

Measure of liquidity; calculated by dividing current assets by current liabilities

If a bond is sold at a discount will its bond carrying amount ever be more than the face amount?

No. Bond carrying amount for a bond sold at a discount will equal face amount - unamortized bond discount. The most the bond carrying amount will ever be for a bond issued at a discount will be its face amount once the bond discount is fully amortized away (at maturity).

Is Face amount and bond liability the same thing?

No. The only time face amount is equal to the bond liability is when a bond is sold at face. [However, on the date the bond matures the bond liability will become the face amount (maturity amount) (because any premium or discount will have been completely amortized away on that date.)]

Is bond interest paid (bond interest payable) the same as bond interest expense?

No. They can be the same amount if the bond was sold at face; but by definition they are not the same thing.

Current Liability

Obligation due within one year or an operating cycle, whichever is longer

Issuer

Party that issues the bond (the borrower)

How is bond interest payable (cash payment for interest) determined?

Principal x stated rate = annual interest or (Principal x ½ stated rate = semi-annual interest)

Operating Cycle

Process of converting cash into inventory, inventory into receivables, and receivables back to cash; its length can be measured in days using financial statement data

Convertible bonds

Provide potential benefits to both the issuer and the investor

If a bond is sold at a discount how will interest expense compare with interest paid? Will interest expense be greater than, equal to, or less than interest paid?

The bond sold at a discount because the market rate of interest was higher than the stated rate; based on a higher market rate interest expense will be higher than the amount of interest paid.

Which of the following is true for bonds issued at a discount? LO9-6 a. The stated interest rate is greater than the market interest rate. b. The market interest rate is greater than the stated interest rate. c. The stated interest rate and the market interest rate are equal. d. The stated interest rate and the market interest rate are unrelated.

The market interest rate is greater than the stated interest rate.

The issue price of a bond is calculated as: Multiple Choice The bond's face amount to be paid at maturity. The present value of the bond's face amount to be paid at maturity. The present value of the bond's periodic interest payments over the life of the bond. The present value of the bond's face amount plus the present value of its periodic interest payments.

The present value of the bond's face amount plus the present value of its periodic interest payments.

the price of a bond is equal to

The present value of the face amount plus the present value of the stated interest payments

A bond sold at a premium will pay cash interest in excess of the amount of interest expense recognized for accounting purposes

True, interest payable is based on the stated rate. Since the bond was sold at a premium, the stated rate was greater than the market rate when the bond was issued...so the interest payment is going to be greater than interest expense.

Bonds sold at a discount will have an effective (market) interest rate that is higher than the stated interest rate.

True, when the market rate is higher than the stated rate, the bond will sell for less than face value (sells at a discount).
