Answer:
d) He earned a lower interest rate than he expected
Explanation:
Data provided in the question
Invested amount ten years ago = $1,000
Expected amount = $1,800
Today amount = $1,680
Based on the above information,
Since the bond is based on the floating rate not the fixed rate that results in the value of the investment to $1,800
And, the today amount is $1,680 i.e. less than the expected amount so the internet rate should be less as compared with the expected rate
hence, correct option is d.

Complete question:
Perch Co. acquired 80% of the common stock of Float Corp. for $1,600,000. The fair value of Float's net assets was $1,850,000, and the book value was $1,500,000. The non-controlling interest shares of Float Corp. are not actively traded. What amount of goodwill should be attributed to the non-controlling interest at the date of acquisition?
a. 150,000
b. 250,000
c. 0
d. 120,000
e. 170,000
Answer:
150,000
of goodwill should be attributed to the non-controlling interest at the date of acquisition
Solution:
A non-controlling interest (NCI) is a role in which a owner holds less than 50% of remaining and has little control over decisions. A minority ownership is often known as the minority interest. Non-controlling interests are calculated by their net worth and are not eligible for future right to vote.
Now , Calculate the amount
Cost(PP) - 1,600/0.8 = 2,000
FV - 1,850
GW = 1,850 - 2,000
= 150,000
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the present values of both alternatives is shown below:
For alternative one, the lump sum amount is
= Yearly payment × PVIFA factor at 8% for 12 years
= $50,000 × 7.5361
= $376,805
And, in the alternative 2, the lumpsum amount i.e. present value is $452,000
So as we can see that the alternative 2 is better as the lumspsum amount is high as compared with the alternative 1
