Amount reported in the balance sheet


Problem 1) On January 1, 2011, Nana Company paid $100,000 for 8,600 shares of Papa Company common stock. These securities were classified as trading securities. The ownership in Papa Company is 10%. Papa reported net income of $56,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011. The fair value of the Papa stock on that date was $53 per share. What amount will be reported in the balance sheet of Nana Company for the investment in Papa at December 31, 2011?

  • $410,800.
  • $395,800.
  • $455,800.
  • $380,800.

Problem 2) Goofy Inc. bought 15,000 shares of Crazy Co.'s stock for $192,000 on May 5, 2010, and classified the stock as available for sale. The market value of the stock declined to $118,000 by December 31, 2010. Goofy reclassified this investment as trading securities in December of 2011 when the market value had risen to $160,000. What effect on 2011 income should be reported by Goofy for the Crazy Co. shares?

  • $42,000 net gain.
  • $0.
  • $32,000 net loss.
  • $74,000 net loss.

I believe it is a $32K net loss but I'm not sure when the loss is realized if at all when the re-class happens. My book does not answer this question.

In December, Handy announced $209,200 net income for 2011 and declared and paid a cash dividend of $6 per share on the 203,500 shares of outstanding common stock. Zwick Company's dividend revenue from Handy Corporation in December 2011 would be:

  • $ 0.
  • $29,812.

  • None of these is correct.

Problem 4) On September 1, 2011, Hiker Shoes issued a $114,000, 8-month, noninterest-bearing note. The loan was made by Second Commercial Bank whose stated discount rate is 10%.

  • 10.64%.
  • 10.00%.
  • 10.63%.
  • 10.71%.

I get 10.05% so I guess 10% ??
