Chapter 10 Reporting and Analyzing Long-Term Liabilities

1) The legal contract between the issuing corporation and the bondholders is called the bond indenture.

2) One of the similarities of bond and equity financing is that both dividends and equity distribution payments are tax deductible.

3) Interest on bonds is tax deductible, while dividend payments are not tax deductible.

4) Interest on bonds is tax deductible.

5) The relationship between the market rate of a bond and the rate of return on the borrowed funds affects the company's return on equity.

6) A disadvantage of bond financing over equity financing is the burden on the cash flows of the company.

7) Term bonds are scheduled for maturity on one specified date, whereas serial bonds mature at more than one date (often in series).

8) Debentures always have specific assets of the issuing company pledged as collateral.

9) Indenture refers to a bond's legal contract; debenture refers to an unsecured bond.

10) Bond market values are expressed as a percent of their par (face) value.

11) A bond with a par value of $1,000 trading at 101½ sells for a premium.

12) A bond with a par value of $1,000 trading at 102½ sells for $1,025.

13) A bond with a par value of $1,000 trading at 97½ sells for a premium.

14) A bond with a par value of $1,000 trading at 98 sells for a discount.

15) Callable bonds give the issuer the option to retire them at a stated dollar amount prior to maturity.

16) Callable bonds can be exchanged for a fixed number of shares of the issuing corporation's stock.

17) Convertible bonds can be exchanged for a fixed number of shares of the issuing corporation's stock.

18) A particular feature of callable bonds is that they reduce the bondholder's risk by requiring the issuer to create a sinking fund of assets set aside at specified amounts and dates to repay the bonds at maturity.

19) Sinking fund bonds reduce the bondholder's risk by requiring the issuer to create a fund of assets to repay the bonds at maturity.

20) A bond's par value is not necessarily the same as its market value.

21) An installment note is an obligation of the issuing company that requires a series of periodic payments to the lender.

22) Payments on an installment note normally include the accrued interest expense plus a portion of the amount borrowed.

23) The carrying value of a long-term note is computed as the present value of all remaining future payments, discounted using the market rate at the time of issuance.

24) Mortgage contracts grant the lender the right to be paid from the cash proceeds of the sale of a borrower's assets identified in the mortgage if the borrower fails to make the required payments.

25) Mortgage bonds are backed only by the good faith and credit of the issuing company.

26) A basic present value concept is that cash paid or received in the future has less value now than the same amount of cash today.

27) A basic present value concept is that cash paid or received in the future has more value now than the same amount of cash received today.

28) Compounded means that interest during a second period is based on the total amount borrowed plus the interest accrued in the first period.

29) A company borrows $10,000 and issues a 5-year, 6% installment note with interest payable annually. The factor for the present value of an annuity at 6% for 5 years is 4.2124. The factor for the present value of a single sum at 6% for 5 years is 0.7473. The amount of the annual payment is $2,373.94.

30) A company borrows $40,000 and issues a 3-year, 10% installment note with interest payable annually. The factor for the present value of an annuity at 10% for 3 years is 2.4869. The factor for the present value of a single sum at 10% for 3 years is 0.7513. The amount of the annual payment is $12,000.

31) An annuity is a series of equal payments at equal time intervals.

32) The present value of an annuity is equal to the sum of the individual future values for each payment.

33) The factor for the present value of an annuity at 8% for 10 years is 6.7101. This implies that an annuity of ten $15,000 payments at 8% yields a present value of $2,235.

34) The factor for the present value of an annuity for 6 years at 10% is 4.3553. This implies that an annuity of six $2,000 payments at 10% is the equivalent of $8,710.60 today.

35) A lease is a contractual agreement between a lessor and a lessee that grants the lessee the right to use the asset for a period of time in return for cash payment(s) to the lessor.

36) Operating leases are long-term or noncancelable leases in which the lessor transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee.

37) Finance leases are long-term or noncancelable leases in which the lessor transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee.

38) An advantage of lease financing is the lack of an immediate large cash payment for the leased asset.

39) A disadvantage of an operating lease is the inability to deduct rental payments in computing taxable income.

40) A pension plan is a contractual agreement between an employer and its employees to provide benefits to employees after they retire.

41) A bond is an issuer's written promise to pay an amount identified as the par value of the bond along with periodic interest payments. 

42) An advantage of bond financing is that issuing bonds does not affect owner control.

43) Periodic interest payments on bonds are determined by multiplying the par value of the bond by the contract rate.

44) The contract rate of interest is the rate that borrowers are willing to pay and lenders are willing to accept for a particular bond and its risk level.

45) Return on equity increases when the expected rate of return from the acquired assets is higher than the interest rate on the debt issued to finance the acquired assets.

46) The use of debt financing ensures an increase in return on equity.

47) Bond interest paid by a corporation is an expense, whereas dividends paid are not an expense of the corporation.

48) Collateral from unsecured loans may be sold to offset the loan obligation if the loan is in default.

49) A company's ability to issue unsecured debt depends on its credit standing.

51) A lessee has substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership in a finance lease.

52) A company with a low level of liabilities in relation to stockholders' equity is likely to have a very high debt-to-equity ratio.

53) The debt-to-equity ratio is calculated by dividing total stockholders' equity by total liabilities.

54) The debt-to-equity ratio enables financial statement users to assess the risk of a company's financing structure.

55) A company has assets of $350,000 and total liabilities of $200,000. Its debt-to-equity ratio is 0.6.

56) A company's debt-to-equity ratio was 1.0 at the end of Year 1. By the end of Year 2, it had increased to 1.7. Since the ratio increased from Year 1 to Year 2, the degree of risk in the firm's financing structure decreased during Year 2.

57) The contract rate on previously issued bonds changes as the market rate of interest changes.

58) The market rate for bonds is generally higher when the time period to maturity is longer due to the risk of adverse events occurring over the time period.

59) A 10-year bond issue with a $100,000 par value, 8% annual contract rate, with interest payable semiannually means that the issuer must repay $100,000 at the end of 10 years and make 20 semiannual interest payments of $4,000 each.

60) When the contract rate on a bond issue is less than the market rate, the bonds sell at a discount.

61) When the contract rate on a bond issue is less than the market rate, the bonds sell at a premium.

62) When the contract rate is above the market rate, a bond sells at a discount.

63) When the contract rate is above the market rate, a bond sells at a premium.

64) A discount on bonds payable occurs when a company issues bonds with an issue price less than par value.

65) The carrying (book) value of a bond at the time it is issued is always equal to its par value.

66) The carrying (book) value of a bond payable is the par value of the bonds plus any discount or minus any premium.

67) The carrying (book) value of a bond payable is the par value of the bonds plus any premium or minus any discount.

69) On January 1, a company issued a $500,000, 10%, 8-year bond payable, and received proceeds of $473,845. Interest is payable each June 30 and December 31. The company uses the straight-line method to amortize the discount. The amount of discount amortized each period is $1,634.69.

70) On January 1, a company issued a $500,000, 10%, 8-year bond payable, and received proceeds of $473,845. Interest is payable each June 30 and December 31. The company uses the straight-line method to amortize the discount. The amount of interest expense to be recorded on June 30 is $25,000.

71) A premium on bonds occurs when bonds carry a contract rate greater than the market rate at issuance.

72) A premium reduces the interest expense of a bond over its life.

73) A discount reduces the interest expense of a bond over its life.

74) Discount on Bonds Payable has a normal debit balance, as it reduces the carrying value of the bonds.

75) The market value (issue price) of a bond is equal to the present value of all future cash payments provided by the bond.

76) Premium on Bonds Payable is an adjunct liability account, as it increases the carrying value of the bond.
