On January 1, 2017, BAJA Corporation purchased bonds with a face value of $600,000 for $616,747.06 The bonds are due June 30, 2020, carry a 13% stated interest rate, and were purchased to yield 12%. Interest is payable semiannually on June 30 and December 31. On March 31, 2018, in contemplation of a major acquisition, the company sold one-half the bonds for $319,000 including accrued interest; the remainder were held until maturity.

1. Prepare an investment interest income and bond premium amortization schedule using the effective interest method.
2. Prepare the journal entries to record the purchase of the bonds.
3. Prepare the journal entries to record each interest payment.
4. Prepare the journal entries to record the partial sale of the investment on March 31, 2018, and the retirement of the bond issue on June 30, 2020.

I understand how to prepare the journal entries and the amortization schedule. I am just curious about how the partial sale on March 31, 2018 affects those entries? Do I have to revise my amortization schedule? It will change the rest of the journal entries as well right?

Can anyone please explain step by step how to solve this by excel solver cause the solver won't accept the binary word

A group of college students is planning a camping trip during the upcoming break. The group must hike several miles through the woods to get to the campsite, and anything that is needed on this trip must be packed in a knapsack and carried to the campsite. On particular student, Tina Shawl, has identified eight items that she would like to take on the trip, but the combined weight is too great to take all of them. She has decided to rate the utility of each item on a scale of 1 to 100, with 100 being the most beneficial. The item weights in pounds and their utility values are given below.

Item    1    2 3 4    5    6 7 8

Weight 8    1 7    6 3 12 5 14

Utility 80    20 50    55    50 75 30    70

Recognizing that the hike to the campsite is a long one, a limit of 35 pounds has been set as the maximum total weight of the items to be carried.

a) Formulate this as a 0-1 programming problem to maximize the total utility of the items carried.Solve this knapsack problem using a computer.

b) Suppose item number 3 is an extra battery pack, which may be used with several of the other items.Tina has decided that she will only take item number 5, a CD player, if she also takes item number 3.On the other hand, if she takes item number 3, she may or may not take item number 5.Modify this problem to reflect this and solve the new problem.

To play the PowerBall lottery, you buy a ticket that has five unique numbers in the range of 1–69, and a “PowerBall” number in the range of 1–26. (You can pick the numbers yourself, or you can let the ticket machine randomly pick them for you.) Then, on a specified date, a winning set of numbers is randomly selected by a machine. If your first five numbers match the first five winning numbers in any order, and your PowerBall number matches the winning Pow-erBall number, then you win the jackpot, which is a very large amount of money. If your numbers match only some of the winning numbers, you win a lesser amount, depending on how many of the winning numbers you have matched.

In the student sample programs for this book, you will find a file named pbnumbers.txt, containing the winning PowerBall numbers that were selected between February 3, 2010 and May 11, 2016 (the file contains 654 sets of winning numbers). Figure 8-6 shows an example of the first few lines of the file’s contents. Each line in the file contains the set of six numbers that were selected on a given date. The numbers are separated by a space, and the last number in each line is the PowerBall number for that day. For example, the first line in the file shows the numbers for February 3, 2010, which were 17, 22, 36, 37, 52, and the PowerBall number 24.

Write a program that works with this file to display the 10 most common numbers, ordered by frequency.

Your submission will consist of:

1. Your algorithm through flowchart/s.
2. The table recording your chosen test data and results (it can be in a Word or PDF file)
3. Source code for your Python implementation

If you understand the meanings of many words, you can be said to have a "good vocabulary." Words are the basis of thought. We think with words, we understand words, and we communicate with words.

A large vocabulary is a significant asset. It allows us to use precise words that say exactly what we intend. In addition, we understand more effectively what we hear and read. A large vocabulary also enables us to score well on employment and intelligence tests. Lewis M. Terman, who developed the Stanford-Binet IQ tests, believed that vocabulary is the best single indicator of intelligence.

In the business world, where precise communication is extremely important, surveys show a definite correlation between vocabulary size and job performance. Skilled workers, in the majority of cases, have larger vocabularies than unskilled workers. Supervisors usually know the meanings of more words than the workers they direct, and executives generally have larger vocabularies than employees working for them.  

Having a good vocabulary at our command doesn't necessarily ensure our success in life, but it certainly gives us an advantage. Improving your vocabulary will help you expand your options in an increasingly complex world.  

Vocabulary can be acquired in three ways: accidentally, incidentally, and intentionally. Setting out intentionally to expand your word power is, of course, the most efficient vocabulary-building method.  In addition, with all of the technology and tools at our disposal, such as the Internet, Siri, Wikipedia, Dictionary.com, it is easy to look up and expand our vocabulary daily.

Why might it be of value to intentionally expand your vocabulary? Explain.

Consider your childhood--who/what was the most influential component of you developing your vocabulary? Explain.  

How strong is your vocabulary?

As I hope is obvious to everyone reading this, the universe contains more matter than antimatter, presumably because of some slight asymmetry in the amounts of the two generated during the Big Bang. This raises the question of whether there are any processes short of the Big Bang that produce more matter than antimatter. That is, is there any known process where a particle collider (or whatever) would convert some energy into matter not through the production of particle-antiparticle pairs but through some process that produced more matter than antimatter? This doesn't need to be restricted to current accelerators-- if there's some mechanism for this that requires impractically high energies, but is based on solid theories (i.e., the Standard Model or straightforward extensions thereof), that would be interesting, too.

I'm fairly certain that the answer is "no," because I know that the matter-antimatter asymmetry is related to CP violation, and I also know that existing measurements of CP violation are not enough to explain the asymmetry. If there were a known way to slam protons together and make more quarks than antiquarks, I wouldn't expect this to still be a mystery. My particle physics knowledge is far from comprehensive, though, so it can't hurt to ask.

(I was briefly confused into thinking that there was such an experiment a while back, but it turned out to just be sloppiness about marking the antiquarks on the part of the people writing about it...)

(This is another question prompted by the book-in-progress, on relativity, this time a single word: I wrote that matter created from energy in particle physics experiments is "generally" in the form of particle-antiparticle pairs. Then I started wondering whether that qualifier was really needed, and thus this question.)

What are some strategies and methods you might use to expand your vocabulary (intentionally)?

Given:

struct Person
{
int id;
    int stats[3]
};

Which is the correct way to initialise an array of Persons?

Which of the following is not a primitive type in the C language?

Given:

struct Person
{
int id;
    int stats[3]
};

Which is the correct way to access the 2nd member of stats in an instance named John?

Given:

struct Person
{
int id;
    int stats[3]
};

Which is the correct way to initialise an instance of Person?

Instead of using parallel arrays with a key and value array, we can create a derived type with members that represent the key – value pair.

True

False

A derived type is a collection of other types.

True

False

Given:

struct Person
{
int id;
    int stats[3]
};

*John.stats[0]; will retrieve the fist element of stats in a Person instance named John.

True

False

What is the key word used to create a user defined (derived) type in the C language?

Create a Java class named Trivia that contains three instance variables, question of type String that stores the question of the trivia, answer of type String that stores the answer to the question, and points of type integer that stores the points’ value between 1 and 3 based on the difficulty of the question.

Also create the following methods:

1. getQuestion( ) – it will return the question.
2. getAnswer( ) – it will return the answer.
3. getPoints( ) – it will return the point
4. setQuestion( String ) – sets the value of the question variable
5. setAnswer( String ) – sets the value of the answer variable
6. setPoints( int ) – sets the value of the points variable
7. Constructor to initialize the instance variables.
8. Overload Constructor to set the instance variables.
9. Add any other methods you need such as equal( ), toString( ), display( ), calcPoints( )...

Create Java application that contains a main method that plays a simple Trivia game. The game should have 5 questions. Each question has a corresponding answer and point value between 1 and 3. Implement the game using an array of 5 Trivia objects.

Next, open a binary file and store those 5 Trivia objects into a binary file then close the file. Open the file again to read each question one at a time and store them into an array of objects.

Randomly, display a question and allow the player to enter an answer.

If the player’s answer matches the actual answer, the player wins the number of points for that question. If the player’s answer is incorrect, the player wins no points for the question. Make sure the answer is not case sensitive and it is only one word or two words at most. The program should show the correct answer if the player is incorrect. After the player has answered all five questions, the game is over and your program should display the player’s total score.
