Answer:
The appropriate amount of Bad Debt Expense is $3,345.20.
Explanation:
The appropriate amount of Bad Debt Expense can be calculated as follows:
Bad debt expense = (Percentage of accounts receivable not yet due it will not collect * Accounts receivable not yet due) + (Percentage of receivables up to 30 days past due it will not collect * Amount of receivables up to 30 days past due) + (Parentage of receivables of receivables greater than 30 days past due it will not collect * Amount of receivables greater than 30 days past due) - Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (credit) ……………………… (1)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (1), we have:
Bad debt expense = (7% * $7,500) + (20% + $2,300) + (46% * $2,000) - $400 = $3,345.20
Therefore, the appropriate amount of Bad Debt Expense is $3,345.20.

Answer:
1. $636
2. $674.16
3. $566.04
4. $534
Explanation:
PV = FV ÷ (1 + r/n)^(t × n)........(1)
PV = present value
FV = Future value
r = rate per period
t = number of years
n = number of compounded period per year
FV = P(1 + r/n)^(t×n)...............(2)
FV = Future value
P = principal
r = rate per period
n = number compounded period per year
t = number of year
NO 1.
P= $600
t = 1
n = 1
r = 6% = 0.06
Using equation 2
FV = 600(1 + 0.06/1)^(1 × 1) = $636
NO 2
P = $600
n = 1
t = 2
r = 0.06
Using equation 2
FV = 600(1 + 0.06/1)^(2 × 1) = $674.16
NO 3.
FV = $600
r = 0.06
t = 1
n = 1
Using equation 1
PV = 600 ÷ (1 + 0.06/1)^(1 × 1) = $566.04
NO 4.
FV = $600
r = 0.06
n = 1
t = 2
Using equation 1
PV = 600 ÷ (1 + 0.06/1)^(2 × 1) = $534

Bonds Payable 1600000 Dr
Loss on Redemption of bonds 36800 Cr
Discount on Bonds Payable 4800 Cr
Cash 1632000 Cr
Explanation:
The redemption of bonds before the maturity usually requires a payment for redemption which is a certain percentage of its face value. It is usually higher than the face value. The above bonds are redeemed at 102 which means at 102% of the face value of the bonds. Thus, the cash paid to redeem the bonds is,
Cash = 1600000 * 102% = 1632000
The bonds have a carrying value, which is the face value less discount or add premium, of,
Carrying value = 1600000 - 4800 = $1595200
If they are redeemed for an amount in excess of the carrying value, they are redeemed at a loss.
The loss on redemption is,
Loss = 1595200 - 1632000 = $36800
