Answer:
$2,500
Explanation:
The computation of bad debt expense is shown below:-
Total Bad Debt = $130,000 × 3%
= $3,900
Balance of allowance for doubtful accounts after Bad debt Expense = Total bad debt - Allowance for doubtful account credit balance
= $3,900 - $1,400
= $2,500
So, we have applied the above formula.
The same is to be considered

Smith and Jones start a business to build custom bicycles. Smith invests personal funds of $100,000 and Jones invests $70,000. Grandma Smith loans the company $24,000 with the provision it is to be paid back in 12 equal monthly payments plus 1.5% monthly interest on her original contribution. Smith and Jones agreed that ownership would be proportional to their equity investments. In addition, they borrow $40,000 from the bank at interest of 1.5% per month payable monthly. (They do not have to pay back the principal for five years, so ignore it.) They buy $120,000 worth of parts. They use $80,000 of those parts in the first month. They pay factory workers a total of $15,000 for the first month. They pay rent of $4,000 for the month for a factory. They each (not Grandma) draw salaries of $4,000 per month. They sell the resulting bicycles for $150,000. a. Prepare a balance sheet for day zero, that is, store is ready, people hired, parts on hand, money collected from bank, Grandma, Smith, and Jones. b. Prepare an income statement for the first month. c. Prepare a balance sheet for the last day of the first month. d. What is the percent ownership by Smith, Jones, and Grandma on the first day of the month.

Asset side
Parts $40,000
Cash $234,040
Total assets $274,040
Liabilities and Equity side
Capital $170,000
Profit (added to reserves) $42,040
Short term loan $22,000
Long term loan $40,000
Total liabilities $274,040
Question d
Grandma is not an equity owner since she will be repaid after 1 year.
Therefore, percentage ownership by Smith, Jones and Grandma will be as follows in the ratio of their equity contribution.
Total capital contributed = 100,000 + 70,000 = 170,000
Smith percentage ownership = [tex]\frac{100,000}{170,000}[/tex] = 58.8%
Jones percentage ownership = [tex]\frac{70,000}{170,000}[/tex] = 41.2%
Grandma's ownership = 0% (no equity contribution).
At the beginning of 2015, Elixir Inc. has the following ledger balances:During the year, credit sales amounted to $800,000. Cash collected on credit sales amounted to $760,000 and $18,000 has been written off. At the end of the year, company adjusted for bad debts expense using the percent-of-sales method and applied a rate, based on past history, of 2.5%. The ending balance in the Allowance for Bad Debts would be ________. Prepare all necessary journal entries.
Answer:
$$7,000
Explanation:
Calculation for the ending balance in the Allowance for Bad Debts
Using this formula
Allowance for Bad Debts Ending balance =
Debts - Write offs + Bad Debt Expense
Let plug in the formula
Allowance for Bad Debts Ending balance= $5,000 - $18,000 + (2.5%*$800,000)
Allowance for Bad Debts Ending balance= $5,000 - $18,000 + $20,000
Allowance for Bad Debts Ending balance = $$7,000
Therefore the ending balance in the Allowance for Bad Debts would be $7,000
All three of the $5000 billion GDP figures (Production, Income and Spending) are in ____________ dollars.
Answer: D inflation adjusted, real
Explanation:
The GDP calculation acquired in the flow chart of $5,000 billion were all done after adjusting for inflation which means that they were in real dollars.
Inflation adjusted GDP enables more effective comparison between different periods as inflation tends to inflate the prices of goods and services and can make one think that the economy has grown more than it actually has.
When the value of GDP is inflation adjusted, it can then be seen just how much the economy improved or shrank.

D0 is currently $3.00, Ke is 8 percent, and g is 5 percent. Under Plan A, D0 would be immediately increased to $3.40 and Ke and g will remain unchanged. Under Plan B, D0 will remain at $3.00 but g will go up to 6 percent and Ke will remain unchanged. a. Compute P0 (price of the stock today) under Plan A. Note D1 will be equal to D0 × (1 + g) or $3.40 (1.05). Ke will equal 8 percent, and g will equal 5 percent. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
a.
P0 = 3.4 * (1+0.05) / (0.08 - 0.05)
P0 = $119
Explanation:
Using the constant growth model of dividend discount model, we can calculate the price of the stock today. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under this model is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)
Where,
Do is dividend today g is the growth rate r is the required rate of returna.
P0 = 3.4 * (1+0.05) / (0.08 - 0.05)
P0 = $119

A project that will last for 10 years is expected to have equal annual cash flows of $103,900. If the required return is 8.4 percent, what maximum initial investment would make the project acceptable? Multiple Choice $638,392.96 $595,833.43 $1,534,047.75 $655,213.49 $684,772.10
Answer:
PV= $684,772.1
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
A project that will last for 10 years is expected to have equal annual cash flows of $103,900. If the required return is 8.4 percent.
First, we need to calculate the future value of the cash flows:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual cash flow
FV= {103,900*[(1.084^10) - 1]} / 0.084
FV= $1,534,047.75
Now, we can determine the present value:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= 1,534,047.75 / (1.084^10)
PV= $684,772.1

At the end of May, the unadjusted trial balance of Barker Industries included the following accounts:
Debit Credit
Sales (75% represent credit sales) $400,000
Accounts Receivable $240,000
Allowance For Doubtful Accounts 1,800
Barker Industries uses the percentage of sales approach in estimating uncollectible accounts. The uncollectible accounts expense is estimated to be 3% of credit sales The net realizable value of Barker's accounts receivable in the May 31 balance sheet is:_____.
a. $250,800.b. $229,200.c. $236,400.d. $226,200.
Answer:
b. $229,200
Explanation:
Computation for the net realizable value of Barker's accounts receivable in the May 31 balance sheet
First step is to find the credit sales
Credit sales=.75(400,000)
Credit sales=300,000
Second step is to find the 3% of 300,000
3% of 300,000=9,000
Third step is to add credit sales amount to Allowance For Doubtful Accounts
9,000 +1,800
=$10,800
Last step is to find the net realizable value
Net realizable value=Accounts Receivable $240,000-$10,800
Net realizable value=$229,200
Therefore the net realizable value of Barker's accounts receivable in the May 31 balance sheet is $229,200
Corporation A has the following returns for the past three years: 7 percent, 13 percent, and 10 percent. Assume each year return had the same probability (weights of 1/3 each). Calculate the expected return
Answer:
10.00%

Westbank Real Estate, Inc. owns 10 acres of forested land. Westbank wants the land cleared in order to build houses. Westbank emails a signed electronic memorandum to a representative of Hardell Lumber Co. offering to sell the mature trees and rich topsoil to Hardell for lumber and agricultural purposes. The electronic memorandum includes the parties' typed names, the consideration, the price, and a description of the property, lumber, and soil. Hardell replies via email to Westbank that it accepts Westbank's terms, electronically signs the memorandum, and will start removing the trees and soil next month. Before Hardell can begin clearing the land, Westbank changes its mind, wants to keep the land forested, and prevents Hardell from accessing the property claiming no contract has been formed.

Joni Hyde Inc. has the following amounts reported in its general ledger at the end of the current year.
Organization costs $24,000
Trademarks 15,000
Discount on bonds payable 35,000
Deposits with advertising agency
for ads to promote goodwill of company 10,000
Excess of cost over fair value of net
identifiable assets of acquired subsidiary 75,000
Cost of equipment acquired for research
and development projects; the equipment
has an alternative future use 90,000
Costs of developing a secret formula for a
product that is expected to be marketed for
at least 20 years 80,000
On the basis of this information, compute the total amount to be reported by Hyde for intangible assets on its balance sheet at year-end. Equipment has alternative future use.
Answer:
90,000
Explanation:
An intangible asset is an asset that is not physical in nature. Goodwill, brand recognition and intellectual property, such as patents, trademarks, and copyrights, are all intangible assets.
Trademarks = 15,000
Excess of cost over the fair value of net
identifiable assets (Goodwill) = 75,000
Total intangible assets = 90,000
A company, which is currently operating at full capacity, has sales of $2,480, current assets of $820, current liabilities of $510, net fixed assets of $1,670, and a 5 percent profit margin. The company has no long-term debt and does not plan on acquiring any. The company does not pay any dividends. Sales are expected to increase by 10 percent next year. If all assets, short-term liabilities, and costs vary directly with sales, how much additional equity financing is required for next year
Answer:
$61.60
Explanation:
Equity funding need = Projected assets - Projected liabilities - Current equity - Projected increase in retained earnings
Equity funding need = $2,739 - $561 - $1,980 - $136.40
Equity funding need = $61.60
Workings
Projected assets = (Current assets + Fixed assets) * 1.10 = 820+1,670 * 1.10 = $2,739

Bond Ratings. Companies pay rating agencies such as Moody’s and S&P to rate their bonds, and the costs can be substantial. However, companies are not required to have their bonds rated in the first place; doing so is strictly voluntary. Why so you think they do so?
Answer:
Bond Ratings
Companies employ rating agencies such as Moody's and S&P to rate their bonds despite the substantial costs and their voluntariness because ratings by these agencies add a badge of honor to the bonds. It gives investors some level of assurance that the bonds will be honored at maturity and that the pricing is right, given the company's credit risk.
Explanation:
Credit risk rating agencies assess the credit risk of a company or financial product as formal and credit-worthy benchmarks for investment decisions. While companies pay huge costs to have these ratings conducted by the big three, including Moody's, S&P, and Fitch, the main value goes to the potential investors who require the information to decide whether to invest in the rated companies.

All against Common Sense. Back in mid 80s, the US economy was very bad. It was much worse than it is now. At that time, to the surprise of many people, US automakers raised the prices of their cars. The common sense says that when the sales are slow, we lower prices and offer better deals to customers. Why do you think that the US car manufacturers increase the prices?
Answer:
Explanation:
This most likely happened because in the 80's the economy was so bad that even by lowering their prices the middle-class families would still not be able to afford to buy a car. The only individuals able to afford a car would be those who are wealthy. Therefore, by increasing prices and targetting wealthy individuals, the US car manufacturers could become profitable with much fewer sales and prevent the manufacturing plant from going under. Since wealthy individuals would not mind much the increased prices because they can still afford it without making much of a dent in their wealth.
