Switching costs, number of buyers, and if the items represent a relatively small portion of the cost of finished products are key considerations regarding the bargaining power of buyers.

Switching costs are the costs which are paid by a consumer as a result of switching brands, suppliers, or products. Some companies may employ high switching costs in order to prevent customers from moving to another brand.

Suppose if the customer purchases large volumes of standardized products from the seller, then the buyer's bargaining power is quite high.  Also, when substitute of a product is available in the market, the buyer power increases.

Hence, most prevailing switching costs are monetary in nature.

Both the Onus ferry operator in the monopoly market and each of the Yuri ferry operators in the perfectly competitive market wil
Lisa [10]

Answer: Please refer to Explanation.

Explanation:

Monopoly.

The 2 reasons why the monopoly’s marginal revenue will always be less than its price are;

a) Even though Monopolies have very large influence on the prices of goods and services they offer, for a Monopoly to sell more goods, they generally have to lower their prices. This will lead to a situation where Marginal Revenue, which is the additional revenue made per additional unit sold will be less than Price because additional revenue for a new unit will be less than the last one because prices are dropped .

b) A Monopoly's demand schedule is downward sloping. This means that demand rises as prices drop. As prices drop therefore, more goods will be sold but the marginal revenue will be less because prices had to be dropped to get an additional unit to be sold. That unit therefore will bring in less revenue than the last unit.

Perfectly Competitive Market

In such a market, the seller is a Price Taker. This means that sellers in this market do not sell at a price that they want but rather at a price the market has established to be the Equilibrium. This is because of the high competition in the market. Since they are all selling at the same price, this means that every additional revenue they get is the same as the price the market charges. This means that Price equals Marginal Revenue in this market.

Uncollectible accounts; allowance method estimating bad debts as percentage of net sales vs. direct write-off method [LO7-5, 7-6
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

1. Bad debt expense = $97,500

2. Accounts receivable written off = $109,500

3. Bad debt expense for 2021 = $109,500

Explanation:

Bad debts expense refers to an uncollectible accounts expense that occurs because goods or services are delivered on credit a company to a customer who did not paid the amount owed.

The questions can be answered as follows:

1. What is bad debt expense for 2021 as a percent of net credit sales?

Under this, bad debt can be calculated using the following formula:

Bad expense = Net credit sales * Estimated bad debt percentage ....... (1)

Where;

Net credit sales = $6,500,000

Estimated bad debt percentage = 1.50%

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Bad debt expense = $6,500,000 * 1.50% = $97,500

2. Assume Ervin makes no other adjustment of bad debt expense during 2021. Determine the amount of accounts receivable written off during 2021.

This can be calculated using the following formula:

Accounts receivable written off = Beginning uncollectible balance + Bad debt expenses - Ending uncollectible balance ............ (2)

Where;

Beginning uncollectible balance = $62,000

Bad debt expenses = $97,500

Ending uncollectible balance = $50,000

Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:

Accounts receivable written off during 2021 = $62,000 + $97,500 - $50,000 = $109,500

3. If the company uses the direct write-off method, what would bad debt expense be for 2021?

Under the direct write-off method, the exact amount of uncollectible accounts as they are specifically identified are recorded.

Based on this explanation, bad debt expense for 2021 is equal to the accounts receivable written off during 2021 calculated in part 2 above. Therefore, we have:

Bad debt expense for 2021 = $109,500
