1-4. What is the value of these notes at the 2007 balance sheetdate? Read the excerpt from
Note 10.
Prior to 2007, the Company had entered into interest rate swapagreements relating to its $385 million 6.5% senior unsecured notesdue 2012 and⦠Under each of these interest rate swapagreements, the Company pays the London InterBank Offered Rate(LIBOR) plus a margin every six months on the notional amount ofthe debt [what amounts to the market price of thedebt], and receives payments based on the fixedstated rate of the notes every six months until the date the notesbecome due [this is why it is called aswap]. Under the agreement related to its$385 million 6.5% senior unsecured notes due 2012, the averagefloating rate paid during 2007 is estimated to be 7.31 percentbased on actual and forward rates at December 31, 2007.
The primary objective for the Companyâs use of interest ratehedges is to reduce the volatility of net interest income by bettermatching the repricing of its assets and liabilities. The Companyâsinterest rate swap agreements qualify as fair value hedges, asdefined by SFAS 133. The fair values of the interest rate swapagreements, which are adjusted regularly, are recorded in theConsolidated Balance Sheet, as necessary, with a correspondingadjustment to the carrying value of the long-term debt. The fairvalue of the interest rate swap agreements, excluding accruedinterest, at December 31, 2007, was an asset of approximately $16million and is recorded in âOther deferred liabilitiesâ in theConsolidated Balance Sheet. In accordance with fair value hedging,the offsetting entry is an adjustment to increase the carryingvalue of long-term debt. See Note 7. [we will discuss theaccounting for fair value hedges (and cash flow hedges) inInternational Accounting]
1-5. So what has happened to the general trend of interest ratesbetween the date of issuance and the end of 2007? How can you tell?What was the market rate at issuance for notes of equivalentrisk?
1-6. Why might Southwest pay off these notes back beforematurity? What effect would a repurchase at the 12/31/07 marketrate (ignoring the interest rate swap) have on Southwestâs majorfinancial statements?
1. Make all adjustments on the "Adjusting Journal Entries". Remember to include a description under each journal entry.
| 12 | . On 1/1/14, ABC Corporation purchased, as a held-to-maturity investment, $200,000 of the 8%, 5-year bonds of Intuit Corporation for $177,824, | ||||||||
| which provides an 11% return. Prepare ABC's 12/31/14 journal entry to reflect the receipt of annual interest and discount amortization. | |||||||||
| Assume the bond investment pays interest annually on 12/31 each year and that effective interest amortization is used. | |||||||||
| Note: Notice that a discount account is not used for this investment. Therefore, for purposes of this adjusting entry, amortize the discount directly to the | |||||||||
| investment account. | |||||||||
| 13. | ABC Corporation prepares an aging schedule on 12/31/14 that estimates total uncollectible accounts at $25,000. Assuming that the allowance method is used, | ||||||||

| of depreciation for the delivery vehicle. ABC Corporation's incremental borrowing rate is 10%, and the Lessor's implicit rate is unknown. No entries have yet | |||||||||
| been made concerning this lease arrangement. After determining the type of lease arrangement (capital or operating), prepare the necessary multiple-part journal | |||||||||
| entry for 2014 for ABC Corporation. (Hints: You will need to compute the present value of the minimum lease payments and 4 separate sub-entries for | |||||||||
| this lease transaction. Also, for Statement of Cash Flow purposes, the principal portion of lease payments are correctly categorized as a financing activity.) | |||||||||
| 15 | ABC Corporation provides a defined benefit pension plan for its employees. A combination adjusting entry should be made to correctly account for this type of pension | ||||||||
| plan given the following items of information for the 2014 plan year, including the recording of pension expense and the employer's contribution to the pension plan in 2014. | |||||||||
| Note: Use the summary entry method as demonstrated and discussed in the chapter lectures on pension accounting to prepare the adjusting entry. | |||||||||

| 17 | Corporate taxes are due in four estimated quarterly payments on April 15, June 15, September 15, and December 15. | ||||||||
| However, for the purposes of this ABC illustration, we will assume that estimates are not paid, and that the tax is paid in full | |||||||||
| on the return's March 15, 2015 due date. | |||||||||
| ABC's income tax rate is 40%. The entire year's income tax expense was estimated at the beginning of 2014 to be $69,600, | |||||||||
| so January through November income tax expense recognized amounts to $63,800 (11/12 months). | |||||||||
| Since we are assuming estimates are not made during the year, the balance in Income taxes payable represents | |||||||||
| tax accrued for January through November. Assume no deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities. | |||||||||
| Based on the income before income taxes figure from the income statement, record December's income tax expense | |||||||||
| so that the entire year's total tax expense is correct. | |||||||||
