Based on the purchase details by the company, the correct journal entry to record the purchase on July 5 is c) Debit Merchandise Inventory $1,800; credit Accounts Payable $1,800.

<h3>Why is this the correct journal entry?</h3>

On July 5, the amount that was purchased was still $1,800. Nothing had been returned yet. The amount that will be debited to Merchandising as an asset will therefore be $1,800.

The Accounts Payable account will be credited the same amount to reflect that the company owes money for the purchase.

In conclusion, option C is correct.

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

$4,412

Explanation:

If the company estimates that $4,412 of accounts receivables will be uncollectible, then it must record that number under the Allowance for Bad debts Account.

That account started the year with a $3,284 balance, it decreased by $1,826 (debt written off), and then must be adjusted by crediting $2,954 so its balance = $4,412 on December 31.

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

The depreciation expense for 2020 is $215,100

Explanation:

Given

Claxton Company purchased a van on January​ 1, 2018, for​ $820,000.

Useful life = 5 years

Residual value = $103,000

Annual depreciation = ($820,000- $103,000)/5

                                 = $717,000/5

                                = $143,400

At the beginning of​ 2020, the asset would have been depreciated for 2 years (2018 and 2019)

Net book value = $820,000 - 2($143,400)

                          = $533,200

Since the residual value remains the same after a revision of the estimated useful life from 5 years to 4 years

The asset would only have 2 years left for depreciation.

Annual depreciation = ($533,200 - $103,000)/2

                                  = $430,200/2

                                  = $215,100

If a monopolistically competitive firm raises its price, it a. loses all of its customers (sales drop to zero) as your answer lo
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

c. loses some, but not all, of its customers as your answer loses some, but not all, of its customers

Explanation:

In a monopolistically competitive product is a product that has competition in the market, but that are not quite the same product, meaning they can´t be exactly replaced by a cheaper or different brand, when a company like that rises its prices, it eventually ends up loosing some clients, but not all, because of the loyal clients and those that can´t or won´t change brands, a good example of a monopolistically competitive firm, would be Apple, which has a loyal base of costumers that eventhough prices of apple products have been rising are still loyal, they are loosing some customers to other brands but not all of them.

D. It can allow you to save money if you time your purchases correctly.
