Answer:
$4,848 will be the amount that should be debited to Bad debts expense when the adjusting entry is being prepared for the year end.
Explanation:
Since the company uses percentage of sales method for calculating bad debt, it therefore means that the bad debt expense for the year will not be charged from the opening balance of allowance for uncollectible accounts but will be charged as Net credit sales × percentage of uncollectible from credit sales.
Therefore, bad debt for the period is charged as Net credit sales × Percentage of uncollectible from credit sales
= $808,000 × 0.6%
= $4,848
Therefore, the adjusting entry for bad debt expenses at year end is;
Bad debt expense Dr $4,848
Allowance for uncollectible accounts Cr $4,848

Which valid statement can he make in his regard?A) Those seeking a united europe have always had a desire to make another way in europe imminentB) Linking neighboring economies increases the potential for violent conflictC) making neighboring economies increasingly dependent on each other fails to create incentives for political cooperationD) Countries can enhance their political weight in the world by grouping their economiesE) free trade stimulates economic growth, which creates dynamic gains from trade
Answer:
If Brett Thiesen wants to make a political case for regional economic integration to his electorate, the valid statement he can make in this regard is
E) free trade stimulates economic growth, which creates dynamic gains from trade.
Explanation:
Free trade among regional countries is the only sure way to "stimulate economic growth and create dynamic gains from trade." According to wikipedia.com, "Free trade is a trade policy that does not restrict imports or exports. It can also be understood as the free market idea applied to international trade." It is free trade system that created the European economy, enabling them to replace their national currencies with the Euro. Regional free trade also encourages the movement of not only goods, but also persons and services, and cultures.
You own a house that costs $300,000 and you are considering leveraging your home. How would three houses that each have $200,000 in mortgage debt make more money than one house that is fully paid
Answer:
You will be able to get more money if you have 3 houses and owe $200,000 on each house simply because you can use the houses to earn extra income.
Imagine two situations:
Situation 1: You own one $300,000 house and earn $100,000 of ordinary income. The bank will lend you money solely based on your income.
Situation 2: You own 3 houses and obviously since you only use one, you can rent the other two. Lets suppose that you can rent the two houses at $2,500 each, and after paying all expenses and taxes, you have $2,000 left per month per house. That means that your total income will increase by $48,000 per year and we can add that to your normal salary of $100,000. In order for this situation to be more favorable, your current debt payments must be less than the additional revenue generated by the two houses (less than $48,000 per year). If your final balance is favorable = additional income ($48,000) ≥ current debt payments, that means that you will have more disposable income in order to pay back any additional loans.
Another reason why a bank might favor situation 2, is that in case something goes wrong, e.g. you get fired, it is always easier to sell one or even both extra houses in order to repay your loan.

Debit Sale of Equipment $104,000
Credit Equipment account $104,000
To close the equipment account.
Debit Accumulated Depreciation $69,600
Credit Sale of Equipment $69,600
To close the accumulated depreciation account.
Debit Cash Account $21,000
Credit Sale of Equipment $21,000
To record the cash receipts from the sale.
Explanation:
a) Calculations:
Purchase price = $104,000
Salvage value = $8,000
Depreciable amount = $96,000
Depreciation per year = $9,600 ($96,000/10)
Accumulated Depreciation at Dec. 31, 2021 = $67,200
This shows that the equipment was bought 7 years ago (not clear from the question), because $9,600 x 7 = $67,200
b) Depreciation expense for 2022 = $2,400 ($9,600 x 3/12)
c) Total accumulated depreciation = $69,600 ($67,200 + 2,400)
d) The difference in the Sale of Equipment account is the loss on sale = $13,400 ($104,000 - 69,600 - 21,000). This shows that the equipment was sold at a loss of $13,400.
Luana sells Beta Corporation stock with an adjusted basis of $58,000 and a fair market value of $70,000 for $64,000.
Luana has a realized of ________________ $ .
Answer:
Gain of $6,000
Explanation:
Since we were told that Luana sells Beta Corporation stock with an adjusted basis amount of $58,000 and a fair market value of the amount of $70,000 for $64,000 this means we have to less $64,000 from $70,000 which will give us a gain of $6,000
$70,000 -$64,000
=$6,000
This means that Luana has realized a Gain of $6,000
A rich aunt has promised you $ 5 comma 000 one year from today. In addition, each year after that, she has promised you a payment (on the anniversary of the last payment) that is 3 % larger than the last payment. She will continue to show this generosity for 20 years, giving a total of 20 payments. If the interest rate is 6 %, what is her promise worth today?
Answer:
PV= $45,642.73
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Cash flow= 5,000
Number of years= 20
Interest rate= 6%
Growth rate= 3%
First, we need to calculate the future value of the aunts' generosity. We will incorporate the growth rate to the interest rate.
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual deposit
FV= {5,000*[(1.09^20) - 1]} / 0.09
FV= $255,800.60
Now, the present value:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= 255,800.6/1.09^20
PV= $45,642.73

Compute the depreciation expense under the following methods. Each of the following should be considered unrelated
a. Straight Line Method for 2017
b. Sum-of-the-years'-digits for 2018
c. Double-declining-balance for 2018
Answer:
a. Straight Line Method for 2017
depreciation expense per year = ($162,702 - $17,802) / 5 years = $28,980
depreciation expense (August to December 2017) = $28,980 x 5/12 = $12,075
b. Sum-of-the-years'-digits for 2018
depreciation expense year 1 = 5/15 x $144,900 = $60,375 / 12 months = $5,031.25 per month
depreciation expense year 2 = 4/15 x $144,900 = $48,300 / 12 months = $4,025
depreciation expense January 2018 - July 2018 = $5,031.25 x 7 = $35,218.75
depreciation expense August 2018 - December 2012 = $4,025 x 5 = $20,125
depreciation expense 2018 = $35,218.75 + $20,125 = $55,343.75
c. Double-declining-balance for 2018
depreciation expense year 1 = 2 x 1/5 x $162,702 = $65,080.80 / 12 months = $5,423.40 per month
depreciation expense year 2 = 2 x 1/5 x $97,621.20 = $39,048.48 / 12 months = $3,254.04
depreciation expense January 2018 - July 2018 = $5,423.40 x 7 = $37,963.80
depreciation expense August 2018 - December 2012 = $3,254.04 x 5 = $16,270.20
depreciation expense 2018 = $37,963.80 + $16,270.20 = $54,234
Last year Mason Inc. had a total assets turnover of 1.33 and an equity multiplier of 1.75. Its sales were $320,000 and its net income was $10,549. The CFO believes that the company could have operated more efficiently, lowered its costs, and increased its net income by $5,250 without changing its sales, assets, or capital structure. Had it cut costs and increased its net income in this amount, by how much would the ROE have changed? Select the correct answer. a. 4.38% b. 2.14% c. 3.26% d. 3.82% e. 2.70%
Answer: d. 3.82%
Explanation:
ROE = Net Income / Equity so Equity need to be ascertained.
1.75 = Total Assets/ Total Equity
Total Equity = Total Assets/ 1.75
1.33 = Revenue / Total Assets
Total Assets = Revenue / 1.33
= 320,000/1.33
= $240,601.50
Total Equity = 240,601.50/1.75
= $137,486.57
Old ROE = 10,549/ 137,489.57
= 0.07672582
= 7.67%
New ROE = (10,549 + 5,250) / 137,489.57
= 0.11491053466
= 11.49%
Difference = 11.49 - 7.67
= 3.82%

Turner Inc. produces two products P1 and P2. The company has provided you with the following information. Assume that the current sales volume of P1 and P2 reflects the long run sales mix of the firm.
P1 P2
Selling price per unit $30 $60
Variable cost per unit $10 $30
Numberof units sold 9,000 6,000
Total fixed costs $240,000
Select ALL statements that are true. All numbers in the answer choices are rounded off to 2 decimals. Breakeven volume in units is rounded off to the next higher integer.
A. 40% of Turner's revenue comes from P2
B. The operating leverage for Turner now is 0.47
C. Turner makes a contribution of $0. 57 per dollar of revenue, on the average.
D. Turner will breakeven when it reaches a revenue of $420,000.
E. The breakeven volume for Turner is 9,334 units
Answer:
B. The operating leverage for Turner now is 0.47 ⇒ TRUE
operating leverage = fixed costs / total costs = $240,000 / $510,000 = 0.47
C. Turner makes a contribution of $0. 57 per dollar of revenue, on the average. ⇒ TRUE
total contribution margin = ($20 x 9,000) + ($30 x 6,000) = $180,000 + $180,000 = $360,000
total revenue = $630,000
contribution margin per $ of revenue = $360,000 / $630,000 = $0.57
D. Turner will break even when it reaches a revenue of $420,000. ⇒ TRUE
break even point in $ = (6,000 x $30) + (4,000 x $60) = $180,000 + $240,000 = $420,000
Explanation:
A. 40% of Turner's revenue comes from P2 ⇒ FALSE
total revenue = $270,000 + $360,000 = $630,000
revenue from P2 = $360,000, which represents 57.14% of total revenue
E. The breakeven volume for Turner is 9,334 units ⇒ FALSE
in order to calculate break even point, we can prepare a bundle of products = 3P1 + 2P2
contribution margin per bundle = $120
break even point = $240,000 / $120 = 2,000 bundles
6,000 P1 and 4,000 P2

The industry is purely competitive.
Explanation:
please check the attached image for a clear image of the table used in answering this question
Total revenue = product price x quantity demanded
for example, total revenue when quantity demanded is 2 is $ x 2 = $4
Marginal revenue is change in total revenue.
marginal revenue = total revenue - previous total revenue
e.g. marginal revenue when quantity demanded is 2 is = $4 - $2 = $2
the structure of the industry is a purely competitive market because price is equal to marginal revenue.
A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogeneous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.
In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit. If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.
Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.

Explanation:
The Net Income is adjusted with non-cash items and changes in working capital to reach Net Cash Flow from Operating Activities.
The Non Cash Expenses previously deducted must be added back whilst the Incomes previously included must be deducted from it.
The items that increase Working Capital must be deducted whilst items that decrease working capital must be added back.
In a department, 35 comma 000 units are completed and transferred out and 12 comma 400 remain in ending WIP at 85% complete. If an equivalent unit costs $ 10.00 for direct materials, what is the value of materials transferred out?
Answer:
$350,000
Explanation:
The computation of the value of material transferred out is shown below:
= Completed and transferred units × equivalent cost for direct material per unit
= 35,000 units × $10
= $350,000
Therefore by multiplying the completed & transferred units with the equivalent cost for direct material per unit we can get the value of material transferred out

Cellar Wines has a debt-equity ratio of 0.54, sales of $728,700, net income of $94,900, and total debt of $382,000. What is the return on equity
Answer:
13.42%
Explanation:
Here is an solution to the question below.
Debt equity ratio = 0.54
Sales = $728700
Net income = $94900
Total debt = $382000
Total equity ratio = net income / (total debt/ debt equity ratio)
total debt/ debt equity ratio = 382000/0.54 = 707,407.4
Total equity ratio = 94900/707,407.4
= 0.1342 x 100
= 13.42%
This is the return on equity.
The real rate is 4.1 percent and the inflation rate is 5.7 percent. What rate would you expect to see on a Treasury bill
Answer:
10%
Explanation:
The rate on a treasury bill is usually the nominal rate.
1 + Nominal rate = (1 + real rate ) x (1 + inflation rate)
(1.041) x (1.057) = 1.10
1.10 - 1 = 0.10 = 10%
Nominal rate = 10%

Retained earnings, 1/1/16 76,000 _____ 44,000
we can use the following two basic formulas to determine the missing amounts:
ending balance retained earnings = beginning balance + net income - dividends paid
paid in capital = assets - liabilities - retained earnings
firm A:
417,000 - 216,000 - 75,000 = 126,000
126,000 + 44,000 - 76,000 = 94,000
firm B:
536,000 - 144,000 - 307,000 = 85,000
307,000 - 85,000 + 9,000 = 231,000
firm C:
44,000 + 117,000 - 66,000 = 95,000
316,000 - 37,000 - 95,000 = 184,000
Suppose that the U.S. government decides to charge cola producers a tax. Before the tax, 50 billion cases of cola were sold every year at a price of $5 per case. After the tax, 44 billion cases of cola are sold every year; consumers pay $6 per case, and producers receive $2 per case (after paying the tax).
The amount of the tax on a case of cola is $ per case. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is $ per case, and the burden that falls on producers is $_________ per case, and the burden that falls on producers is $ _____ per case.
The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been larger if the tax had been levied on consumers.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
U.S. Tax Burden on Cola:
The amount of the tax on a case of cola is $4 per case. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is $1 per case, and the burden that falls on producers is ___$3______ per case.
The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been larger if the tax had been levied on consumers.
a. True
b. False
Explanation:
The tax burden on consumers, which is represented by the difference in the price of cola from $5 to $6 per unit is $1 ($6 - $5). However, the cash received by producers reduced by $3 from $5 to $2. This shows that the total tax burden on both consumers and producers is $4 ($1 + $3).
This represents a total tax burden of $4 or about 67% based on the new selling price of cola or 80% based on the old selling price of cola.
"The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been larger if the tax had been levied on consumers alone. This because the price of cola would have increased to $9 per unit. Since the demand for cola in this instance is elastic, this change in price would have caused a more than 80% change in the quantity demanded.
The amount of the tax on a case of cola is $4 per case. Of this amount, the tax burden that falls on consumers is $1 per case, and the burden that falls on producers is $3 per case.
What do you mean by tax burden?Tax Burden is a measure of the tax liability imposed by the government on the citizens of a country.
The tax burden on consumers, represented by the price difference of cola from $ 5 to $ 6 per unit is $ 1 ($ 6 - $ 5).
However, producers' revenue has been reduced by $3 from $ 5 to $2.

A share of BAC common stock has just paid a dividend of $1.00. The market return is 12% and the beta is 1.5. The three month T-bill rate is 4%. The expected long-run growth rate for this stock is 8%. What is the required return for the stock? What is the stock price?
Answer:
Required rate of return= 16%
Stock price= $13.50
Explanation:
A share of BAC common stock just made a dividend payment of $1
Market return is 12%
Beta is 1.5
Risk-free rate is 4%
Growth rate is 8%
The required rate of return for the stock can be calculated as follows
Required rate of return= Risk-free rate+beta×(market rate-risk-free rate)
= 4%+1.5(12%-4%)
= 4%+1.5×8%
= 4%+12
= 16%
The stock price can be calculated as follows
Stock price= dividend for the year/(rate of return-growth rate)
= (1×1.08)/(16/100-8/100)
= 1.08/0.16-0.08
= 1.08/0.08
= $13.50
Hence the required rate of return and the stock price is 16% and $13.50 respectively.
7. A fast-food chain plans to expand by opening several new restaurants. The chain operates two types of
restaurants, drive-through and full-service. A drive-through restaurant costs RM 100.000 to construct,
requires 5 employees, and has an expected annual revenue of RM 200.000. A full service restaurant
costs RM 150.000 to construct, requires 15 employees, and has an expected annual revenue of RM
500,000. The chain has RM 2,400,000 in capital available for expansion. Labor contracts require that
they hire no more than 210 employees, and licensing restrictions require that they open no more than
20 new restaurants.
(a) How many restaurants of each type should the chain open in order to maximize the expected
revenue? [1 point)
≤
Explanation:
Drive through Full Service
Annual revenue 200,000 500,000
Cost 100,000 150,000
Income 100,000 350,000
Employee 5 15
Income / employee 20,000 23,333.33
Using simultaneous equation ,
Let X represent the drive through service ,and Y represent the full service restaurant
Budget = 100,000x + 150,000y ≤ 2,400,000 (equation 1)
Employer = 5x + 15y ≤ 210 (equation 2)
(Divide equation 1 by 10 ,000)
10x+ 15y ≤ 240 (equation 3)
Using elimination method, multiply equation 2 by -2
10x +15y ≤240
-10x - 30y ≤-420
-15y ≤ -180
y≤ -180/-15
y = 12
substitute y = 12 in equation 3
10x + 15y≤240
10x +180 ≤240
10x≤240-180
10x≤60
x≤6
12 1,800,000 180
6 600,000 30
6 drive through services and 12 full services should be opened.
6 Drive through 12 full service 20
Cost 600,000 1,800,000 2,400,000
Employees 30 180
Net income 600,000 4,200,000

Your family business uses a secret recipe to produce salsa and distributes it through both smaller specialty stores and chain supermarkets. The chain supermarkets have been demanding sizable discounts, but you do not want to drop your prices to the specialty stores. True or False: One way to offer a lower price while defending yourself against antitrust lawsuits would be to offer a volume discount for larger salsa orders.
Answer:
The correct answer is the option: True.
Explanation:
To begin with, in order to establish a better relationship and also to increase the amount of the company's sales the managers has to establish a discount for larger salsa orders so in that way the big supermarket will buy more and will be satisfy for the discount and with the price they are getting and the specialty stores will understand that the difference in the price is due to the amount of the orders. Moreover, by doing that strategy the company is not breaking the antitrust law because there is no special arrengement between the company and the supermaket but is just a matter of volumen and if the specialty stores increases their orders then they will have the discount as well, and therefore the antitrust law is not been broke in any way.
The risk-free rate of return is 5 percent and the market risk premium is 12 percent. What is the expected rate of return on a stock with a beta of 1.4
Answer:
Expected rate of return= 21.8 %
Explanation:
The capital asset pricing model is a risk-based model for estimating the return on a stock.. Here, the return on equity is dependent on the level of reaction of the the equity to changes in the return on a market portfolio. These changes are captured as systematic risk. Systematic risks are those which affect all economic actors in the market, they include factors like changes in interest rate, inflation, etc. The magnitude by which a stock is affected by systematic risk is measured by beta.
Under CAPM,
E(r)= Rf + β×(Rm-Rf)
E(r)- expected return- ?
Rf-risk-free rate- 5%
β= Beta - 1.4
(Rm-Rf) - 12
E(r) = 5% + 1.4× (12%)= 21.8 %
Expected rate of return= 21.8 %
