During 2012, Robby's Camera Shop had sales revenue of $170,000, of which $75,000 was on credit. At the start of 2012, Accounts R

klio [65]

Answer:

1) December 31, 2012, bad debt write off

Dr Bad debt expense 1,700

Cr Accounts receivable 1,700

December 31, 2012

Dr Bad debt expense 1,125

Cr Allowance for doubtful accounts 1,125

2) Bad debt expense must be recorded in the income statement and it reduces net income. Both transactions reduce net accounts receivable on the balance sheet.

3) It doesn't seem to be appropriate because just one bad account (J. Doe) was higher than 1.5%. A large % of accounts receivable is still outstanding (= $27,275 / $75,000 = 36.4%) and they should include approximately four months of credit sales. This means that unless the company issues a very long credit, a much larger percent is past due.

Explanation:

net accounts receivable January 1, 2012 = $15,100

credit sales 2012 = $75,000

collections on accounts receivable $60,000

net accounts receivable December 31 = $15,100 + $75,000 - $60,000 - $1,700 - $1,125 = $27,275

An aircraft factory manufactures airplane engines. The unit cost (the cost in dollars to make each airplane engine) depends on t

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Incomplete question

Complete question:

An aircraft factory manufactures airplane engines. The unite cost C ( the cost in dollars to make each airplane engine) depends on the number of engines made. If x is the number of engines made, then the unit cost is given by the function C(x)=0.8x^2-160x+26848. What is the minimum unit cost? not rounded

Answer: $18848

Explanation:

Since we have the function

C(x) = 0.8x²-160x+26,848

Firstly, we differentiate

C'(x) = 1.6x - 160

The minimum cost will occur where x = 100.

The vertex of a parabola (quadratic equation) occurs where X = -b/2a, in this case we have that

X = 160/(2×0.8) = 100

Therefore, we substitute x = 100 into the original equation

We have that

C(x) = 0.8(100)²-160(100)+26848

C(x) = 8000-16000+26848

C(x) = $18848

Which of the following would tend to shift the supply of dollars in the market for foreign-currency exchange in the open-economy

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

The right answers are either b. or d., or both.

Explanation:

When the dollar loses value, there is higher demand for foreign imports in a country because they become cheaper. When the dollar gains in value, a foreign country´s exports increase. Changes in the value of currencies reflect changes in demand and supply. An increase in exports will shift the demand curve of the dollar higher. A reduction of imports will have a contrary effect.

A country is in the midst of a recession with real GDP estimated to be $4.5 billion below potential GDP. The government's policy

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

a. The government needs to increase spending by $0.45 billion and decrease taxes by $0.5 billion.

b. The real GDP will fall short of potential GDP by $3.6 billion.

c. The real GDP will fall short of potential GDP by $4 billion.

d. If government overestimates MPC change in spending or taxes will be too small.

Explanation:

The GDP gap is $4.5 billion.

a. The marginal propensity to consume is 0.90.

Government spending multiplier

= $\frac{1}{1-MPC}$

= $\frac{1}{1-0.9}$

= 10

The government needs to increase spending by

= $\frac{GDP\ Gap}{Government\ spending\ multiplier}$

= $\frac{4.5}{10}$

= $0.45 billion

Tax multiplier

= $\frac{-MPC}{1-MPC}$

= $\frac{-0.9}{1-0.9}$

= -9

The government needs to decrease taxes

= $\frac{GDP\ Gap}{Tax\ multiplier}$

= $\frac{4.5}{9}$

= $0.5 billion

b. The marginal propensity to consume is 0.50.

Government spending multiplier

= $\frac{1}{1-MPC}$

= $\frac{1}{1-0.5}$

= 2

If the government increases spending by $0.45 billion,

The real GDP will increase by

= $Increase\ in\ spending\ \times\ Spending\ multiplier$

= $\$ 0.45\ \times\ 2$

= $0.9 billion

The real GDP will fall short of potential GDP by

= $4.5 billion - $0.9 billion

= $3.6 billion

c. Tax multiplier

= $\frac{-MPC}{1-MPC}$

= $\frac{-0.5}{1-0.5}$

= -1

If the government decreases taxes by $0.5 billion

The real GDP will increase by

= $$0.5\ billion\ \times 1$

= $0.5 billion

The real GDP will fall short of potential GDP by

= $4.5 billion - $0.5 billion

= $4 billion

d. If the government overestimates the value of the MPC, then its change in spending or taxes will be too small and real GDP will fall short of potential GDP.

question 14(multiple choice worth 5 points) (04.02 mc) who was intended to benefit from the land act of 1800? a large-scale farm

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Since the government aimed to make westward migration more appealing to immigrants, "A poor family that coveted property" was primarily those who benefited.

Due to their inability to purchase a farm at an affordable price, many ended up squatting on public property without a valid title. The Harrison's Land Act of 1800 decreased the minimum purchase size from 640 acres to 320 acres and added a credit provision. A quarter of the total cost had to be paid up front, and the remaining amount had to be paid over the course of four years with an extra year added on for late payments.
