Hello, I have attached a document including 7 problems. These are practice problems for the class "Contemporary Issues in Accounting" which is an advanced accounting course of moderate to hard difficulty. These problems are not as long as they look and I will tip for correct answers.

Problem 1 On January 1, 2016, LLB Industries borrowed $270,000 from Trust Bank by issuing a two-year, 10% note, with interest payable quarterly. LLB entered into a two-year interest rate swap agreement on January 1, 2016, and designated the swap as a fair value hedge. Its intent was to hedge the risk that general interest rates will decline, causing the fair value of its debt to increase. The agreement called for the company to receive payment based on a 10% fixed interest rate on a notional amount of $270,000 and to pay interest based on a floating interest rate. The contract called for cash settlement of the net interest amount quarterly. Floating (LIBOR) settlement rates were 10% at January 1, 8% at March 31, and 6% June 30, 2016. The fair values of the swap are quotes obtained from a derivatives dealer. Those quotes and the fair values of the note are as indicated below. Fair value of interest rate swap Fair value of note payable January 1 March 31 June 30 0 $ 7,172 $ 12,794 $ 270,000 $ 277,172 $ 282,794 Required: 1. Calculate the net cash settlement at March 31 and June 30, 2016. 2. Prepare the journal entries through June 30, 2016, to record the issuance of the note, interest, and necessary adjustments for changes in fair value. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.) Hint: Jan 1st- record issuance of not March 31st- Record interest March 31st- Record net cash settlement March 31st- Record change in fair value of derivative March 31st- Record change in fair value of note June 30th- Record interest June 30th- Record net cash settlement June 30th- Record change in fair value of the derivative June 30th- Record the change in Fair value of note Total of 9 journal entries. Problem 2 On January 1, 2016, S&S Corporation invested in LLB Industries' negotiable two-year, 12% notes, with interest receivable quarterly. The company classified the investment as available-for-sale. S&S entered into a two-year interest rate swap agreement on January 1, 2016, and designated the swap as a fair value hedge. Its intent was to hedge the risk that general interest rates will decline, causing the fair value of its investment to increase. The agreement called for the company to make payment based on a 12% fixed interest rate on a notional amount of $330,000 and to receive interest based on a floating interest rate. The contract called for cash settlement of the net interest amount quarterly. Floating (LIBOR) settlement rates were 12% at January 1, 10% at March 31, and 8% June 30, 2016. The fair values of the swap are quotes obtained from a derivatives dealer. Those quotes and the fair values of the investment in notes are as follows: Fair value of interest rate swap Fair value of note payable January 1 March 31 June 30 0 $ 7,772 $ 13,994 $ 330,000 $ 337,772 $ 343,994 Required: 1. Calculate the net cash settlement at March 31 and June 30, 2016. 2. Prepare the journal entries through June 30, 2016, to record the investment in notes, interest, and necessary adjustments for changes in fair value. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.) Hint: Jan 1st- record investment of note March 31st- Record interest March 31st- Record net cash settlement March 31st- Record change in fair value of derivative March 31st- Record change in fair value of investment June 30th- Record interest June 30th- Record net cash settlement June 30th- Record change in fair value of the derivative June 30th- Record the change in Fair value of investment Total of 9 journal entries. Problem 3 LLB Industries borrowed $210,000 from Trust Bank by issuing a two-year, 12% note, with interest payable quarterly. LLB entered into a two-year interest rate swap agreement on January 1, 2016 and designated the swap as a fair value hedge. Its intent was to hedge the risk that general interest rates will decline, causing the fair value of its debt to increase. The agreement called for the company to receive payment based on a 12% fixed interest rate on a notional amount of $210,000 and to pay interest based on a floating interest rate. Floating (LIBOR) settlement rates were 12% at January 1, 10% at March 31, and 8% at June 30, 2016. The fair values of the swap are quotes obtained from a derivatives dealer. Those quotes and the fair values of the note are as indicated below. The additional rise in the fair value of the note (higher than that of the swap) on June 30 was due to investors' perceptions that the creditworthiness of LLB was improving. Fair value of interest rate swap Fair value of note payable January 1 March 31 June 30 0 $ 6,572 $ 11,594 $ 210,000 $ 216,572 $ 230,000 Required: 1.
