Duncan Company reports the following financial information before adjustments. Dr. Cr. Accounts Receivable $100,000 Allowance fo
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

  • Duncan Company estimates bad debts at   (a) 5% of accounts receivable

Dr Bad Debt Expense                             $ 3.000

Cr Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts $ 3.000

  • (b) 5% of accounts receivable but Allowance for Doubtful Accounts had a $1,500 debit balance.  

Dr Bad Debt Expense                            $ 6.500

Cr Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts $ 6.500

Explanation:

 

Initial Balance  

Sales Revenue (all on credit)         $ 900,000

Less: Sales Returns and Allowances $ 50,000

Estimates bad debts 5%

Dr Accounts Receivable                       $ 100,000

Cr Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $ 2,000

When the company estimates the bad debts, the journal entry is the loss to the income statement through the account Bad Debt Expense and the record in the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts as a credit to deduct from Accounts Receivable in the Balance Sheet.

The entry it's less than the estimated value of 5% because the account "Allowance for Doubtful Accounts" had a balance of $2,000 on Credit.

Duncan Company estimates bad debts at   (a) 5% of accounts receivable  

Dr Bad Debt Expense                            $ 3,000

Cr Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts $ 3,000

The new balance on Allowance for Doubtful Accounts as Debit of $1,500 means that when the entry of the adjustment is recorded it's necessary to compensate that value to show a  debit balance of $5,000., because the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts must reflect a credit balance.

(b) 5% of accounts receivable but Allowance for Doubtful Accounts had a $1,500 debit balance.  

Dr Bad Debt Expense                            $ 6,500

Cr Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts $ 6,500

Accounts Uncollectible are those credit that the company give and there are not chances of been collected.

When the customers buy products on credits but then the company can't collect the debt, then it's necessary to write off the unpaid bill as uncollectible.

One way it's to write-off directly the bad debts at the moment decided that the credit are uncollectible, the total amount it's reported as bad debt expenses which affect negativly the income statement and the accounts receivable are reduced in the same amount, less assets.

The other way it's to determine a percentage of total amount of accounts receivables as uncollectible, exist many ways to analize the accounts receivable and figure the value of uncollectible.

When the company have the percentage of uncollectible accounts the journal entry required is Bad Expenses (debit) with Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (credit)

At the moment of the write-off as the expenses were before recognized we only use the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (Debit) with Accounts Receivable (Credit), with this we are recognizing the uncollectible credit of the company.

Piedmont Company segments its business into two regions—North and South. The company prepared the contribution format segmented
pychu [463]

Answer:

Piedmont Company

1. Computation of the Companywide break-even point:

Break-even point = Fixed Cost/Contribution per margin

= $215,000/$27 = 7,963 units

2. Computation of the break-even point in dollar sales for the North region:

Break-even point in dollar sales = Fixed Costs/Contribution margin percentage

= $107,500/30% = $358,333

3. Computation of the break-even point in dollar sales for the South region:

= $107,500/60% = $179,1667

Explanation:

a) Data

Piedmont Company Contribution format segmented income statement as shown:

                                      Total Company            North             South

Sales                                 $ 675,000              $ 450,000     $ 225,000

Variable expenses              405,000                  315,000           90,000

Contribution margin           270,000                  135,000          135,000

Traceable fixed expenses  150,000                   75,000            75,000

Segment margin                 120,000               $ 60,000         $ 60,000

Common fixed expenses    65,000                  32,500             32,500

Net operating income      $ 55,000                $27,500           $27,500

NB: The common fixed expenses must be shared in some way to calculate the break-even points.

b) Total fixed costs:

Company-wide = $215,000 ($150,000 + 65,000)

North = $107,500 ($75,000 + 32,500)

South = $107,500 ($75,000 + 32,500)

c) We assume that the sales unit of 5,000 each for the two regions.  Total units = 10,000

d) Contribution per margin:

Company-wide = $270,000/10,000 = $27

North = $135,000/5,000 = $27

South = $135,000/5,000 = $27

e) Contribution margin percentage:

= Contribution/Sales x 100

Company-wide = $270,000/$675,000 x 100 = 40%

North = $135,000/$450,000 x 100 = 30%

South = $135,000/$225,000 x 100 = 60%

f) The break-even point is the quantity of sales that must be achieved for the fixed costs to be fully covered and no profit or loss is recorded.  It is the point at which fixed costs are equal to the contribution.  The contribution is the difference between the sales value and the variable costs.

According to Keynesian theory, which of the following is not true at each short-term macro equilibrium?
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

All macroeconomic goals are achieved.

Explanation:

All macroeconomic goals should be achieved in the long term macro equilibrium.

On the long term macro equilibrium, real GDP should be equal to potential GDP. This is all theoretical since there is no real possibility that the potential GDP is ever equal to the real GDP. There will always be at least one economic actor that is not being 100% efficient, so potential GDP is unreachable.
