Answer:

debit to Bad Debt Expense for $5800

Explanation:

Accounts receivable estimated as uncollectible = $8500

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts = $2700

Additional allowance for Doubtful debts required = $8500 - $2700

                                                                                  = $5800

The adjustment to record bad debts for the period will be

Debit Bad debt expense   $5800

Credit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts  $5800

The right option is debit to Bad Debt Expense for $5800

<em>Part 2. per unit contribution margin</em>

contribution margin per unit of sell  = $ 60

<em>Part 3. contribution margin ratio</em>

contribution margin ratio  = 50 %

<em>Part 4. break-even point in dollars</em>

break-even point in dollars  = $ 52,320

<em>Part 5. break-even point in units</em>

break-even point in units  = 436 clients

Explanation:

<em>Part 1.  total contribution margin in dollars</em>

contribution margin per unit of sell = Sales Price × 50%

                                                             = $120 × 50%

                                                             = $ 60

Total Contribution Margin = Number of Clients × Contribution Margin per unit

                                              = 630 × $60

                                              = $37,800

<em>Part 2. per unit contribution margin</em>

contribution margin per unit of sell = Sales Price × 50%

                                                             = $120 × 50%

                                                             = $ 60

<em>Part 3. contribution margin ratio</em>

contribution margin ratio = Contribution / Sales

                                            = $ 60/ $ 120

                                            = 50 %

<em>Part 4. break-even point in dollars</em>

break-even point in dollars = Fixed Costs / contribution margin ratio

                                               =  $26,160 / 0.50

                                               = $ 52,320

<em>Part 5. break-even point in units</em>

break-even point in units = Fixed Costs / contribution per unit

                                            = $26,160 / $60

                                            = 436 clients

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is that the valuation would decrease total assets and stockholders’ equity by $101.00

Explanation:

Item             Cost                      Market price            Impact

Quantity

1 220 $ 4.40  $ 4.60        no impact as cost is lower

2 130 $ 6.20  $ 6.00 ($6.20-$6.00)* 130=$26

3 100 $ 10.00  $ 9.25 ($10-$9.25)*100    =$75

4 25 $ 20.50  $ 25.00 No impact as cost is lower

The total reduction in the value of inventory as a result of adopting the lower of cost or market price valuation is $101 ($75+$26),hence decreases total assets by $101 and the stockholders' equity(retained earnings which is a component of stockholders' equity ) by the same amount
