It experienced the following events during its first two years of operation: Events Affecting Year 1 Provided $45,000 of cleaning services on account. Collected $39,000 cash from accounts receivable. Adjusted the accounting records to reflect the estimate that uncollectible accounts expense would be 1 percent of the cleaning revenue on account. Events Affecting Year 2 Wrote off a $300 account receivable that was determined to be uncollectible. Provided $62,000 of cleaning services on account. Collected $61,000 cash from accounts receivable. Adjusted the accounting records to reflect the estimate that uncollectible accounts expense would be 1 percent of the cleaning revenue on account.
Question Completion:
Show the effects of the transactions on the accounting equation for each year.
Answer:
Rosie Dry Cleaning
Effects on the accounting equation of Assets = Liabilities + Equity:
Year 1:
Assets (Accounts Receivable +$45,000) = Liabilities + Equity (Retained earnings: Service Revenue +$45,000)
Assets (Cash +$39,000; Accounts Receivable -$39,000) = Liabilities + Equity
Assets (Accounts Receivable ($450)) = Liabilities + Equity (Retained Earnings - Bad Debt Expense ($450))
Year 2:
Assets (Accounts Receivable ($300)) = Liabilities + Equity (Retained Earnings: Bad Debts Expense ($300))
Assets (Accounts Receivable +$62,000) = Liabilities + Equity (Retained Earnings: Service Revenue +$62,000)
Assets (Cash +$61,000; Accounts Receivable -$61,000) = Liabilities + Equity
Assets (Accounts Receivable ($620)) = Liabilities + Equity (Retained Earnings: Bad Debt Expense ($620))
Explanation:
a) Data and Analysis:
Year 1:
Accounts Receivable $45,000 Service Revenue $45,000
Cash $39,000 Accounts Receivable $39,000
Accounts Receivable ($450) Bad Debt Expense ($450)
Year 2:
Accounts Receivable ($300) Bad Debts Expense $300
Accounts Receivable $62,000 Service Revenue $62,000
Cash $61,000 Accounts Receivable $61,000
Accounts Receivable ($620) Bad Debt Expense ($620)
b) The accounting equation is an important concept of accounting which explains that at every given time, the assets of the business are equal to its liabilities and equity. The implication is that the entity's assets are funded by a combination of debts to third parties and owners' equity (capital contributions + retained earnings).

You just won a lottery that promises to pay you $1 million exactly 10 years from today. Because the $1 million payment is guaranteed by the state in which you live, opportunities exist to sell the claim today for an immediate lump-sum cash payment. What is the least you will sell your claim for if you could earn 8.73 % on similar-risk investments during the 10-year period
Answer:
The minimum price is $434,214.74.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Future Value= $1,000,000
Number of periods= 10 years
Discount rate= 8.73%
The minimum price of the prize is the present value of the payment. To calculate the present value, we need to use the following formula:
PV= FV /(1 + i)^n
PV= 1,000,000 / (1.087^10)
PV= $434,214.74
The minimum price is $434,214.74.
A semiprofessional baseball team near your town plays two home games each month at the local baseball park. The team splits the concessions 50/50 with the city but keeps all the revenue from ticket sales. The city charges the team $500 each month for the three-month season. The team pays the players and manager a total of $2500 each month. The team charges $10 for each ticket, and the average customer spends $6 at the concession stand. Attendance averages 100 people at each home game.
The team earns an average of $_________ in revenue for each game and $_____________ of revenue each season. With total costs of $___________ each season, the team finishes the season with $____________ of profit.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
Amount charges for each ticket = $10
The average customer spends $6 at the concession stand but the team splits the concessions 50/50 with the city. Therefore, the team gets $6/2 = $3 from concession.
Revenue gotten per customer = $10 + $3 = $13
Average attendance = 100
Total revenue per game = $13 × 100 = $1300
Since there are 2 matches every months and it's a three months season, the number of home matches player will be: = 2 × 3 = 6. Therefore, total revenue will be:
= $1300 × 6
= $7800
The city charges the team $500 each month for the three-month season. The team pays the players and manager a total of $2500 each month. Therefore, Total cost = (500 × 3) + (2500 × 3)
= 1500 + 7500
= 9000
Profit/Loss = Revenue - Cost
= 7800 - 900
= 1200
Loss of $1200
The team earns an average of ($1300) in revenue for each game and ($7800) of revenue each season. With total costs of ($9000) each season, the team finishes the season with ($1200) as loss.

Hubert lives in San Francisco and runs a business that sells boats. In an average year, he receives $842,000 from selling boats. Of this sales revenue, he must pay the manufacturer a wholesale cost of $452,000; he also pays wages and utility bills totaling $301,000. He owns his showroom; if he chooses to rent it out, he will receive $38,000 in rent per year. Assume that the value of this showroom does not depreciate over the year. Also, if Hubert does not operate this boat business, he can work as an accountant, receive an annual salary of $48,000 with no additional monetary costs, and rent out his showroom at the $38,000 per year rate. No other costs are incurred in running this boat business.
Identify each of Hubert's costs in the following table as either an implicit cost or an explicit cost of selling pianos.
Implicit Cost Explicit Cost
The wholesale cost for the pianos that Hubert pays the manufacturer
The salary Hubert could earn if he worked as an accountant
The wages and utility bills that Hubert pays
The rental income Hubert could receive if he chose to rent out his showroom
Complete the following table by determining Hubert's accounting and economic profit of his piano business.
Profit
(Dollars)
Accounting Profit
Economic Profit
If Hubert's goal is to maximize his economic profit, he( should, should not) stay in the piano business because the economic profit he would earn as an accountant would be $______.
Answer:
Explicit costs are normal costs of operating a business.
Implicit costs are opportunity costs meaning that they are the benefits foregone by engaging in a certain course of action.
The wholesale cost for the pianos that Hubert pays the manufacturer ⇒ EXPLICIT COST.
The salary Hubert could earn if he worked as an accountant ⇒ IMPLICIT COST.
The wages and utility bills that Hubert pays ⇒ EXPLICIT COST
The rental income Hubert could receive if he chose to rent out his showroom. ⇒ IMPLICIT COSTS
Accounting Profit = Revenue - Explicit costs
= 842,000 - 452,000 - 301,000
= $89,000
Economic Profit = Revenue - Explicit costs - Implicit costs
= 842,000 - 452,000 - 301,000 - 38,000 - 48,000
= $3,000
If Hubert's goal is to maximize his economic profit, he should stay in the piano business because the economic profit he would earn as an accountant would be -$3,000.
Economic profit as accountant = Salary + rental income - accounting profit from piano
= 48,000 + 38,000 - 89,000
= -$3,000
A baker knows that her customers will pay $5 for a loaf of bread, but if the marginal
utility decreases after the first loaf, how might the baker get her customers to buy more
than one loaf?
Answer: Sell at lower price
Explanation:
Marginal Utility is the amount of satisfaction that her customers will get with every additional unit of bread purchased.
If the marginal utility decreases, her customers will buy less bread because to them, it is not as valuable anymore. If she offers her bread at lower prices, the customers would buy more because the new price will align with the lower utility the customers get from the additional loaves.
A Giffen good is a good for which price and quantity demanded are positively related. A Giffen good arises when:_______.
a. the income effect and the substitution effect move quantity demanded in opposite directions, with the income effect outweighing the substitution effect.
b. the income effect and the substitution effect move quantity demanded in opposite directions, with the substitution effect outweighing the income effect.
c. the income effect and the substitution effect move quantity demanded in the same direction, with the income effect outweighing the substitution effect.
d. the income effect and the substitution effect move quantity demanded in the same direction, with the substitution effect outweighing the income effect.
Answer:
a
Explanation:
A giffen good is a good whose quantity demanded increases with price increase and reduces with price decreases. This leads to an upward sloping demand curve which is not in line with the law of demand
Example of a giffen good is bread.
For a giffen good there would a negative income effect and a positive substitution effect but the income effect would outweigh the substitution effect

d (i). Suppose that ZX Inc. is currently selling at $50 per share. You buy 200 shares, using $5,000 of your own money and borrowing the remainder of the purchase price from your broker. The rate on the margin loan is 5%. What is the rate of return on your margined position (assuming again that you invest $5,000 of your own money) if ZX Inc. is selling after one year at $46 (use whole number percentage with two decimals rounded up/down - i.e. 0.3245 input 32.45) ? Group of answer choices -21% -20% -19% -18%
Answer:
-21%
Explanation:
Initial share price = $50
Share price after 1 year = $46
net return = (200 x $46) - $10,000 - ($5,000 x 5%) = $9,200 - $10,000 - $250 = -$1,050
rate of return of margined position = -$1,050 / $5,000 = -0.21 = -21%
when you operate on the margin, your earnings can increase or decrease dramatically. In this case, an 8% price decrease resulted in a 215 lose.

Which of the statements is not true about a bank run? Fears leading to bank runs can be self-fulfilling. There was a wave of bank runs during the Great Depression. Bank runs are bad for the bank affected and usually good for the bank's competitors. Deposit insurance is designed to reduce the risk of bank runs for depository banks. Since the Great Depression the government has set up regulation that has eliminated most bank runs.
Answer:
Bank runs are bad for the bank affected and usually good for the bank's competitors
Explanation:
A bank run happens when bank depositors withdraw their money deposited due to fear of the bank's solvency.
Bank runs can work as a self fulfilling prophecy. For example, if there a rumour that a bank is insolvent and it is not, depositors would start withdrawing their monies. This would eventually lead to the bank being insolvent.
Bank runs affect other banks and can lead to the collapse of the whole financial system. Bank runs occurred during the great depression
Bank runs led to the establishment of deposit insurance. The aim of deposit insurance is to increase the confidence of depositors in banks because depositors know their deposits are insured

Amanda, one of Abigail's fellow workers at BOSS, was surprised to learn that her department's schedule was changed from a standard 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. day, with an hour for lunch, to a work day that began at 8 a.m. and ended at 6 p.m., and that included a two-hour lunch. BOSS was located in the far suburbs, and there was little Amanda could do during the two-hour lunch period. What especially upset Amanda was the realization that when she got off work at 6 p.m. and drove 30 minutes to pick up her child at day care, she would be at least an hour late for daycare and would have to pay a very costly penalty. There were no day care facilities closer to the job, so Amanda had little recourse. She raised this concern to her supervisor, and when she was told that the new schedules were going to remain 8-6 with a two-hour lunch, Amanda began a campaign to pressure BOSS to change that schedule back. She wrote letters to the local newspaper, and called a local TV station. When Amanda's employer learned of Amanda's actions, it discharged her under Employment at Will (EAW). Amanda filed suit for wrongful discharge, claiming that this was a public policy exception to EAW because it constrained her Constitutional First Amendment right to Freedom of Speech. Which of the following is most correct?
a. Amanda will not win her lawsuit for wrongful discharge.
b. Amanda will not win her lawsuit for wrongful discharge unless the court decides that Amanda had legal standing to bring the case.
c. Amanda will win her lawsuit for wrongful discharge unless the court decides that BOSS had legitimate business necessity for changing the schedule.
d. Amanda will win her lawsuit for wrongful discharge.
Answer: A. Amanda will not win her lawsuit for wrongful discharge.
Explanation:
Based on the information that was provided, Amanda will not win her lawsuit for wrongful discharge.
The employer-at-will simply means that an employer can dismiss his or her worker as long as it's not illegal. In this case, Amanda will not win because she's hired "at will," and in such cases, the courts will deny her any loss claim that results from her dismissal.
Brown Cow Dairy uses the aging approach to estimate bad debt expense. The ending balance of each account receivable is aged on the basis of three time periods as follows:
(1) not yet due, $13,000;
(2) up to 120 days past due, $6,000; and
(3) more than 120 days past due, $5,500. Experience has shown that for each age group, the average loss rate on the amount of the receivables at year-end due to uncollectibility is
(1) 2 percent,
(2) 12 percent, and
(3) 30 percent, respectively.
At December 31 (end of the current year), the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts balance is $710 (credit) before the end-of-period adjusting entry is made. Data during the current year follow:
a. During December, an Account Receivable (Patty's Bake Shop) of $660 from a prior sale was determined to be uncollectible; therefore, it was written off immediately as a bad debt.
b. On December 31, the appropriate adjusting entry for the year was recorded.
Required:
1. Give the required journal entries for the two items listed above.
2. Show how the amounts related to Accounts Receivable and Bad Debt Expense would be reported on the income statement and balance sheet for the current year. Disregard income tax considerations.
Answer:
1. Journal Entries :
a. Bad Debt Expense (Dr.) $660
Accounts Receivable (Cr.) $660
2. Accounts receivable Ending Balance :
Not yet due $13,000 * 98% = 12,740
Up to 120 days $6000 * 88% = 5280
More than 120 days $5500 * 70% = 3850
Totals = 21,870
Bad debt expense Ending balance :
Not yet due $13,000 * 2% = $260
Up to 120 days $6000 * 12% = $720
More than 120 days $5500 * 30% = $1,650
Totals = 2630
Explanation:
Bad debt expense is the expected uncollectible amount from accounts receivable. Usually company maintains an allowance for doubtful debt. Brown cow dairy uses aging approach for estimating bad debts of the company. The uncollectible amount is expensed out in Income Statement and asset is decreased in Balance Sheet.
Albatross Software has two main products: WindSong is a program that can be used to edit audio files and SunBurst is a program that can be used to edit digital photos. The two major types of customers are small businesses and home users. The small business customers have a reservation price of $300 for WindSong and $450 for SunBurst. The home users have a reservation price of $100 for WindSong and $125 for SunBurst. Which of the following statements is true?
A) Bundling the two software products is not likely to be profitable because the marginal cost of producing sofware is positive by very small.
B) Bundling the two software products is not likely to be profitable because the consumer demands are homogeneous.
C) Bundling the two software products is likely to be profitable because the demands are negatively correlated
D) Bundling the two software products is not likely to be profitable because the demands are positively correlated.
Answer:
D) Bundling the two software products is not likely to be profitable because the demands are positively correlated.
Explanation:
The demand for both products I positively correlated, meaning that a user that purchases one will likely purchase the other one.
Bundling products is generally profitable when the demand for the products is not heterogenous and price discrimination is difficult. In this case, price discrimination is not difficult, and the demand is homogeneous.
The expected average rate of return for a proposed investment of $5,330,000 in a fixed asset, using straight-line depreciation, with a useful life of 20 years, no residual value, and an expected total net income of $15,990,000 over the 20 years is (round to two decimal points). a.1.50% b.15.00% c.60.00% d.30.00%
Answer:
The Expected Average Rate of Return for the proposed investment is 30%.
Explanation:
This can be calculated as follows:
Average Investment = (Initial Cost + Residual Value) / 2 = ($5,330,000 + $0) / 2 = $2,665,000
Expected average annual income = Expected total net income / Useful life = $15,990,000 / 20 = $799,500
Expected Average Rate of Return = Estimated Average Annual Income / Average Investment = $799,500 / $2,665,000 = 0.30, or 30%
Maxim Corp. has provided the following information about one of its products: Date Transaction Number of Units Cost per Unit 1/1 Beginning Inventory 200 $ 140 6/5 Purchase 400 $ 160 11/10 Purchase 100 $ 200 During the year, Maxim sold 400 units. What is cost of goods sold using the average cost method
Answer:
$64,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the cost of goods sold using the average cost method
First step is to calculate the Average cost
Average cost = [(200 × $140) + (400 × $160) + (100 × $200)] ÷ 700 units
Average cost= $160
Now let calculate the Cost of goods sold
Cost of goods sold = $160 × 400 units
Cost of goods sold = $64,000
Therefore the cost of goods sold using the average cost method will be $64,000
