After accounting for bad debt expense, the remaining amount in the allowance for doubtful accounts is $7,950.

<h3>What is bad debt?</h3>

Bad debt, sometimes referred to as uncollectible accounts expense, is a sum of money owed to a creditor that is unlikely to be paid and for which the creditor is not willing to take action to collect for a variety of reasons, frequently due to the debtor not having the money to pay, for example due to a company going into liquidation or insolvency. Depending on accounting practices, regulatory considerations, and the institution provisioning, there are many technical definitions of what a bad debt is. Bank loans in the USA are referred to as "problem loans" if they are more than 90 days overdue. Accounting sources recommend deducting the entire amount of a bad debt from profit and loss or from a provision for bad debts as soon as it is anticipated.

zhuklara [117]

Answer: c. $100 favorable fixed operating cost variance

Explanation:

Cost Variance is a way of measuring the efficiency of a Company or segment in terms of how well they are managing resources and keeping with the budget.

It is calculated by subtracting the Actual balance from the Budgeted balance.

If the result is negative it is called UNFAVORABLE. If it is positive on the other hand it'll be labeled FAVORABLE.

Option C is correct because,

Budgeted balance of Fixed Cost is 500.

Actual balance is 400.

Fixed Operating Cost Variance = 500 - 400

= $100

$100 is positive so it is $100 FAVORABLE.

which economies would you expect to rely LESS on foreign trade as a percentage of their economic activity
Artist 52 [7]

Answer: А. large, more heavily populated, economies like China

Explanation:

Larger countries like China and the US have a higher population which will mean that domestically, they produce quite a lot and so percentage wise would be able to rely less on foreign trade as they will produce a lot of things for themselves.

Smaller countries like Singapore however, will be unable to produce much of what they need and so will have to engage in foreign trade more than larger countries, percentage wise.

Mathematically speaking. Percentage wise, larger countries will rely less on foreign trade because foreign trade will be less compared to their large economies. The reverse is true for smaller countries.
