Explanation / Answer

30. The answer is "b" - selling price. bond interest is a function of the face value and the interest rate. selling price plays no part here.

31. the answer is "b" - less than $100,000. price of a bond is the present value of the future cash flows generated by it. the future cash flows are in the form of interest rate and maturity amount. Now the present value is calculated by discounting the cash flow by the market rate. If the market rate will increase, the amount of discounting will also increase, lowering the present values and hence the price.

32. The answer is "d" - gain/loss is shown in the income statement. For example, if the price paid to retire the bonds is less than the carrying amount of the bonds at retirement, a gain is recorded in the income statement.

33. The answer is "d" - In an operating lease, the right of ownership of the asset is not conveyed. The lessee records the amounts as lease rental expenses and it is not capitalized.
