Liabilities, Interest, Present Value & Bond Valuation(负债、利息、现值与债券估值)
1. Sources of Financing(融资来源)
-
1.1 Debt Financing – Funds from Creditors(债务融资——来自债权人的资金)
-
Essence / 本质: Borrowed money that must be repaid with interest. (向外部借入资金,将来必须连本带息偿还。)
-
Features / 特点:
- Legal obligation to pay interest and principal.(利息与本金是法律义务。)
- Creditors can force bankruptcy if unpaid.(未支付时债权人可以申请破产清算。)
-
Advantages / 优点:
- Interest is tax-deductible.(利息可税前抵扣。)
- No ownership dilution.(不会稀释现有股东持股。)
-
Capital structure / 资本结构:
- Mix of debt and equity affects risk, return, and control. (债务与权益的组合会影响企业风险、收益与控制权。)
-
-
1.2 Equity Financing – Funds from Owners(权益融资——来自所有者的资金)
-
Essence / 本质: Owners contribute capital in exchange for ownership (shares). (所有者投入资金换取股权。)
-
Features / 特点:
- Dividends are not legal obligations.(股利不是法律义务,可选择不发。)
- Residual claim on assets and profits.(股东对剩余资产和利润拥有索取权。)
-
Flexibility / 灵活性:
- No fixed repayment schedule; improves solvency but可导致股权被摊薄。
-
-
1.3 Risk Comparison: Debt vs Equity(风险比较:债务 vs 权益)
-
Debt is riskier for the company because:
- Interest is a legal obligation.(利息支付刚性。)
- Creditors can force bankruptcy.(债权人可通过法律程序强制破产。)
-
Equity is riskier for investors (residual claim) but safer for company solvency. (权益对投资者风险更高,但对企业偿债能力更安全。)
-
2. Liabilities Overview(负债概念与分类)
-
2.1 Definition of Liabilities(负债的定义)
- Definition / 定义: Probable future sacrifices of economic benefits arising from present obligations from past transactions. (由于过去交易形成的现时义务,预计将导致未来经济利益的流出。)
- Usually paid with assets or services.(通常用现金、其他资产或劳务偿还。)
-
2.2 Classification: Current vs Noncurrent(分类:流动与非流动负债)
-
Current liabilities(流动负债):
- Maturity within 1 year or the operating cycle.(一年或营业周期内到期。)
- Examples: A/P, short-term notes, wages payable, taxes payable, current portion of long-term debt.
-
Noncurrent liabilities(非流动负债):
- Maturity > 1 year.(一年以上到期。)
- Examples: long-term notes, bonds payable, long-term leases.
-
-
2.3 Measurement at Present Cash Equivalent(按现时现金等价物计量)
- Current cash equivalent / 当前现金等价价值: Amount a creditor would accept today to cancel the debt. (债权人今天愿意接受以了结债务的金额。)
- Essentially the present value of future cash outflows:
-
2.4 Common Liability Accounts(常见负债账户)
-
2.4.1 Accounts Payable / Trade Accounts Payable(应付账款)
- Obligations to pay for goods and services used in normal operations. (因购买存货和服务形成的短期应付款项。)
-
2.4.2 Accrued Liabilities(应计负债)
- Expenses incurred but not yet paid (wages, interest, taxes). (已发生但尚未支付的费用,如工资、利息、税金。)
-
2.4.3 Notes Payable(应付票据)
- Formal written obligations, often with an explicit interest rate and maturity date. (书面票据形式的负债,通常注明利率和到期日。)
-
2.4.4 Deferred / Unearned Revenues(递延/预收收入)
- Cash received before revenue is earned; obligation to provide goods/services. (先收款后履约,对客户负有提供商品或服务的义务。)
-
3. Liquidity Measures(短期偿债能力指标)
-
3.1 Current Ratio(流动比率)
- Formula / 公式:
- Interpretation / 含义: Higher ratio → stronger ability to pay short-term obligations. (比率越高,短期偿债能力越强;过高可能说明资产运用效率低。)
-
3.2 Working Capital(营运资金)
- Formula / 公式:
- Interpretation / 含义: Positive working capital indicates a buffer of liquid resources. (为正说明企业有一定安全垫,可支持日常运营。)
-
3.3 Accounts Payable Turnover Ratio(应付账款周转率)
-
Formula / 公式:
-
Interpretation / 含义:
- Higher turnover → pay suppliers quickly.(周转率高表示付款速度快。)
- Can be converted to days payable outstanding:
-
4. Notes Payable & Interest(应付票据与利息)
-
4.1 Interest Basics(利息基础)
- Formula / 公式:
- Time = 1 for full year; fraction (e.g., (2/12)) for partial year. (一年记为 1,少于一年按月数或天数折成分数。)
-
4.2 Lender vs Borrower Perspective(债权人与债务人视角)
- To the lender, interest = interest revenue.(对出借方是利息收入。)
- To the borrower, interest = interest expense.(对借款方是利息费用。)
-
4.3 Example: Starbucks Short-Term Note(短期票据示例)
- Borrow $100,000, 12% annual, 2 months:
-
4.4 Long-Term Notes at Present Value(长期票据按现值入账)
- Record note and related asset at PV of future payment using market rate.
- Example:FV $200,000, market rate 12%, (n=2):
-
4.5 Effective Interest Method(实际利率法)
- Each period:
- For discount notes, carrying amount increases toward face value; for premium notes, it decreases.
5. Contingent Liabilities(或有负债)
-
5.1 Probability vs Estimability Table(可能性与可计量性矩阵)
- Probable + Estimable(很可能且可估计) → Record liability and expense.(确认负债与费用。)
- Probable / Reasonably possible + Not estimable(难以估计金额) → Disclose in notes.(仅在附注披露。)
- Remote(可能性极低) → No action.(无需确认或披露。)
-
5.2 Typical Examples(典型例子)
- Lawsuits, guarantees, environmental obligations, warranties. (诉讼、担保、环境治理义务、产品保修等。)
6. Long-Term Liabilities(长期负债)
-
6.1 Nature & Maturity(性质与到期)
- Obligations with maturity greater than one year / operating cycle. (到期时间超过一年或一个营业周期的债务。)
- Current portion of long-term debt should be reclassified as current liability. (一年内到期部分需单独列示为流动负债。)
-
6.2 Collateral & Pledges(抵押与质押)
- Creditors may require borrowers to pledge assets as security. (债权人常要求以固定资产或其他资产作抵押。)
- Pledged assets must be disclosed in notes because they reduce flexibility. (被抵押资产通常需在附注中披露,会降低企业财务弹性。)
-
6.3 Financing Channels: Loans vs Bonds(筹资渠道:贷款 vs 债券)
- Small long-term needs → bank loans, insurance companies, pension funds.
- Large long-term needs → issue bonds to many investors.
7. Present Value Concepts(现值概念)
-
7.1 Time Value of Money(货币时间价值)
- A dollar today is worth more than a dollar in the future because it can earn interest. (今天的一元因可立即投资生息,价值大于未来的一元。)
-
7.2 Four Key Variables(四个关键变量)
- Present value (PV)、Future value (FV)、Interest rate (r)、Number of periods (n)。
- Knowing any three allows solving for the fourth.(已知任意三者即可求出剩下一项。)
-
7.3 Tools for PV Calculations(现值计算工具)
- Present value tables(现值表)
- Financial calculators(金融计算器)
- Excel functions (
PV,FV,RATE,NPER等)
8. Present Value of a Single Amount(单笔金额现值)
-
8.1 Definition & Timeline(定义与时间轴)
- PV = today’s value of a future single cash flow. (现值是单笔未来现金流折算到今天的价值。)
- Timeline: future value at time (n) discounted back to time 0.
-
8.2 Core Formulas(核心公式)
- Future value:
- Present value:
-
8.3 Example: $1,331 in 3 Years at 10%(例子)
- Using PV table factor 0.7513:
9. Present Value of an Annuity(年金现值)
-
9.1 Definition of Annuity(年金定义)
- Series of equal payments at regular intervals (ordinary annuity if at period end). (在固定间隔内支付等额现金流;期末支付为普通年金。)
-
9.2 PV of Annuity(年金现值公式)
- Equivalent to discounting each payment and summing:
-
9.3 Example: $1,000 Each Year for 3 Years at 10%(示例)
- Table factor:(PVIFA(10%,3) = 2.4869)
10. Accounting Applications of PV – Long-Term Notes(现值在长期票据中的会计应用)
-
10.1 Initial Recognition at PV(按现值初始确认)
-
Record asset and note payable at PV of future payment using market rate.
-
Example:
- (FV = 200{,}000)、(r = 12%)、(n = 2):
- Entry:Dr Delivery trucks 159,440 / Cr Notes payable 159,440。
-
-
10.2 Effective Interest Method(实际利率法)
- Year 1 interest expense:
- Entry:Dr Interest expense 19,133 / Cr Notes payable 19,133。
- Year 2 interest expense:
-
10.3 Final Settlement(到期偿还)
-
When carrying amount reaches face value 200,000:
- Dr Notes payable 200,000
- Cr Cash 200,000
-
11. Future Value Concepts(终值概念)
-
11.1 FV of Single Amount(单笔金额终值)
- Formula / 公式:
- Example:(PV = 1{,}000, r = 10%, n = 3):
-
11.2 FV of an Annuity(年金终值)
- Formula / 公式:
- Example:$1,000 each year, 10%, 3 years:
12. Bond Valuation Basics(债券估值基础)
-
12.1 Bond Cash Flows(债券现金流)
- Periodic interest (coupon) = face value × stated rate.
- Principal (face value) repaid at maturity.
-
12.2 Pricing by Present Value(用现值定价)
- Bond price = PV of interest annuity + PV of principal
- All discounted at market/effective rate (r)。
-
12.3 Stated vs Effective Interest Rate(票面利率 vs 实际利率)
- Stated rate → determines cash interest (C = F \times \text{stated rate})。
- Effective (market) rate → determines economic return & price。
-
12.4 Par, Premium, Discount(平价、溢价、折价)
- Stated = effective → price = face value (par).
- Stated > effective → price > face value (premium).
- Stated < effective → price < face value (discount).
13. Bond Valuation Terminologies(债券估值术语)
-
13.1 Face Value(面值)
- Principal repaid at maturity date.(到期偿还的本金金额。)
-
13.2 Bond Premium(债券溢价)
- Issue price − face value when price > face. (发行价高于面值的差额。)
-
13.3 Bond Discount(债券折价)
- Face value − issue price when price < face. (面值高于发行价的差额。)
-
13.4 Amortized Cost / Book Value(摊余成本 / 账面价值)
- Carrying amount = PV of remaining cash flows discounted at original effective rate.
- Changes each period via effective interest method;趋近于面值。
-
13.5 Fair Value vs Carrying Amount(公允价值 vs 账面金额)
- Fair value uses current market rate at day t.
- Carrying amount uses original effective rate at purchase date.
14. Discount Bond Example – Debt Instrument(折价债券示例:债务工具)
-
14.1 Initial Purchase at Discount(初始折价购买)
- Term 5 years; face value 1,000。
- Price computed as: where coupon (59 = 1{,}250 \times 4.7%)。
-
14.2 Carrying Amount After 1 Year(一年后的账面价值)
- Remaining 4 coupons + principal discounted at 10%:
- Carrying amount > purchase price because effective rate > stated rate. (因实际利率高于票面利率,账面价值随着折价摊销逐年上升。)
-
14.3 Key Insights(关键理解)
- Discount represents extra yield beyond coupon interest. (折价提供了超出票息的额外收益。)
- Over time, carrying amount accretes upward to face value $1,250 at maturity. (随时间推移,账面价值逐渐接近并最终等于面值 1,250。)
