Answer: All of the options are correct.
Explanation:
The Allowance for Doubtful Account is a contra account because it reduces the value of the Accounts Receivable Account and does so in order to account for the possibility that some customers will not pay the amounts they owe.
It is credited when Bad debts are estimated and recorded; that way this reduction in Accounts receivable does not have to go out of the Accounts Receivable account directly.This will ensure that the Accounts Receivable Account is not volatile as it attempts to keep up with all the bad debts incurred.
What does the consumer price index measure? B. the change in prices of specific goods and services over time. The consumer price index is also know as the CPI when reffering to this calculation. The CPI measures the weighted items of specific consumer goods and services by averaging them overtime. The CPI allows for comparison of the same products that consumers use on a daily basis and see how much they are using each year. This lets us know how the economy is doing as it relates to inflation. Inflation is the increase in prices and decline of the purchasing value of money in an economy.
Answer:
The principle balance after the first interest period, if the payment took place is $789,390.
Explanation:
First, we have to find out how much are you paying in interest, and since you have a 6% and the terms provided mention semi-annual installment payments, we have to turn that 6% compounded semi-annually to effective semi-annually (simply divide by 2) and that is 3%. That means that the interest ($) for 800K for the first period is equal to:
$800,000 x 0.03 = $24,000
After the first interest period, and assuming that the payment took place, the principal balance would be.
Initial Balance $800,000
Interest $ 24,000
(-) payment -$ 34,610
<em><u>Final balance $ 789,390 </u></em>

You could do this with an amortization table, I made one for you, see the attached MS Excel file.
Best of luck.
