Answer:
c. 2.30 years
Explanation:
In the payback, we analyze in how many years the invested amount is recovered. The computation is shown below:
In year 0 = $1,150 (Initial investment)
In year 1 = $500
In year 2 = $500
In year 3 = $500
If we sum the first 2 year cash inflows than it would be $1,000
Now we deduct the $1,000 from the $1,150 , so the amount would be $150 as if we added the fourth year cash inflow so the total amount exceed to the initial investment. So, we deduct it
And, the next year cash inflow is $500
So, the payback period equal to
= 2 years + ($150 ÷ $500)
= 2.30 years
In 2.30 yeas, the invested amount is recovered.
Answer:
Expected contribution as per sales mix = $37*0.60 + $50*0.40
= $22.20 + $20
= $42.20 per unit
Total number of products in total at break even point = Total fixed cost / Contribution per unit
= $227,880 / $42.20 per unit
= 5,400 units
How many units each of Super and Supreme must Adams sell to break even?
<u>According to sales mix:</u>
Super = 5,400 * 60% = 3,240 units
Supreme = 5,400 * 40% = 2,160 units.

Answer:
By following the Accountants Principle and Dicksons policy of debiting Bad debt accounts as Accounts are written off, the Net income would have been impacted negatively (reduced) by the write off from Prior period of $31,330 only
However, by following the % of receivables approach, a total of $31,330 (Write off from prior period) + $9,240 (current period provision for bad debt) will impact the Net Income negatively (reduced) = $40,570
Explanation:
Accounts receivable balance = $77,000
12% projected uncollectible debt = $9,240
Provision for bad debt under the % of receivables approach = $9,240
Amount written off related to prior year = $31,330
