Bio-Lab Pharmaceuticals carried on a project to develop a new drug that dramatically shortened the recovery period for flu infection. The project cost the company $150,000 before Bio-Lab abandoned the project due to the slim possibility to gain FDA approval. Bio-Lab then spent $300,000 on another project developing a kind of shot that achieves the same goal for flu recovery, and the company is confident in gaining FDA approval for the new shot and in making profits out of the shot. What amount would be expensed

Amount to be expensed =$150,000+$300,000
Amount to be expensed =$450,000
Therefore the amount that would be expensed will be $450,000

Answer:
C. The broker-dealer has civil liability since it offered the securities in contravention of State law
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. A complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
A broker-dealer that is offering a new issue in a State has obtained a legal opinion from its counsel that the issue is exempt from registration in that State. After the offering is completed, the State Administrator determines that the issue should have been registered. Which statement is TRUE regarding the broker-dealer's liability in this situation?
A. The broker-dealer has no liability because it can rely on the legal opinion as its defense
B. The broker-dealer has no liability because it acted in good faith in the transaction
C. The broker-dealer has civil liability since it offered the securities in contravention of State law
D. The broker-dealer has criminal liability because it has shown scienter in this transaction
The answer to the question is provided as follows:
It is not possible for a broker-dealer to avoid civil liability by relying on a legal opinion.
The reason is that the court interprets a legal opinion as just an opinion but not the law itself.
Under this circumstance, it is possible to hold both the broker-dealer and the attorney who gave the legal opinion that is incorrect civilly liable. The reason is that the offer of the securities by the broker-dealer contravenes the law of the State.
However, it should be noted that there is no criminal liability under this circumstance as the illegal action was not "scienter".
"Scienter" is a Latin word which implies "not thought out in advance" or "not intentional".
Therefore, the correct option is C. The broker-dealer has civil liability since it offered the securities in contravention of State law

Discount-Mart issues $10 million in bonds on January 1, 2018. The bonds have a ten-year term and pay interest semiannually on June 30 and December 31 each year. Below is a partial bond amortization schedule for the bonds: Date Cash Paid Interest Expense Increase in Carrying Value Carrying Value 1/1/2018 $8,640,967 6/30/2018 $300,000 $345,639 $45,639 8,686,606 12/31/2018 300,000 347,464 47,464 8,734,070 6/30/2019 300,000 349,363 49,363 8,783,433 12/31/2019 300,000 351,337 51,337 8,834,770 What is the stated annual rate of interest on the bonds
Answer:
6%
Explanation:
Given the following :
Amount of bond issued = $10,000,000
Cash paid = $300,000
Term of bond = 10years
Semiannual interest pay
The stated annual rate of interest on the bond can be calculated thus :
Rate of interest ;
Cash paid / Amount of bond issued
$300,000 / $10,000,000
= 0.03
0.03 * 100%
= 3% (semiannual interest)
Therefore, annual rate of interest :
Semiannual rate * 2
3% * 2 = 6%

Answer:
c. Work-related expenses are reported on Schedule A (Form 1040).
Explanation:
An independent contractor can be defined as a self employed individual or business entity that provides services or work for another for an agreed fee.
This ultimately implies that, an independent contractor is a non-employee of the organization he provides services or work for. Some examples of independent contractor are consultants, engineers, lawyers, accountants, auditors, doctors etc.
Hence, reporting work-related expenses on Schedule A (Form 1040) is not a characteristic of independent contractor status.
However, independent contractors are required by law to report income and expenses on Schedule C (Form 1040) and report all their profits or losses on Schedule E (Form 1040) in the United States of America.
Additionally, an independent contractor status suggests that workplace fringe benefits are not available, services are performed for more than one party and must have receipt of a Form 1099 reporting payments received.
