c) Will the maintenance cost be included in the acquisition cost of the machine? Justify your answer.

No, the maintenance cost will not be included in the acquisition cost of the machine. It is because maintenance cost is a subsequent cost that ca
ies no probable future economic benefit. Therefore, it must be expensed as and when it occurs.
Week 2
a) What factors should be considered in determining the issue price of a debenture.
Ans –
Factors to be considered in determining the issue price of a debenture are:
· Interest Rate
· Credit Rating
· Maturity Date
· Cash flows the company
· Profitability of the company
· Times interest ratio of the company
· Management past performance
· Collateral offered for debentures issued
) Required:
(i) Determine the issue price of the debenture.
Issue price = Total Face Value * Present value factor at nyears for semi-annual market rate
+
Semi Annual interest * Cumulative Present value factor at nyears for semiannual market rate
Here n = 12 years (As interest is paid semi-annually for 6 years)
Total Face Value = $2,000,000
Semi Annual Interest = $2,000,000 * 8% * ½ = $80,000
Semi Annual Market Rate = 6/2 = 3%
Present value factor as per factor table for 12 years at 3% = 0.701
Cumulative Present value factor as per factor table for 12 years at 3% = 9.954
Therefore Cash proceeds = $2,000,000*0.701 + $80,000 * 9.954
= $1,402,000 + $796,320
= $2,198,320
(ii) Provide the journal entries at:
1 July 2018, 30 June 2019, & 30 June 2020.
