Answer: Protective tariff

Explanation: Protective tariffs are basically designed to protect the domestic producers from foreign competition. These tariffs raise the retail price of imported products making them expensive in comparison to domestic  products and thereby making domestic products more  competitive.

Explanation:

March 31, 2018

Prepaid insurance $14,740  - 3,618

Supplies 2,900  - 1,960

Equipment 22,100

Accumulated depreciation-equipment 5,680  + 1,226

interest payable 600

Income tax payable 2,600

1. The equipment, which was purchased on January 1, 2017, is estimated to have a useful life of four years. The company uses straight-line depreciation.

depreciation per year = $22,100 / 4 = $5,525

depreciation expense up to March 31, 2018:

$5,525 x 1.25 = $6,906.25 ≈ $6,906

adjustment entry = $6,906 - $5,680 = $1,226

Dr Depreciation expense 1,226

    Cr Accumulated depreciation 1,226

2. One third of the unearned revenue related to rent is still unearned at the end of the quarter.

adjusting entry = 9,730  - (9,730  x 1/3) = $6,486.67 ≈ $6,487

Dr Unearned revenue 6,487

    Cr Rent revenue 6,487

3. The loan payable has an interest rate of 6%. Interest is paid on the first day of each following month and was last paid March 1, 2018.

interest per month = $20,000 x 6% x 1/12 = $600

Dr Interest expense 600

    Cr Accrued interest 600

4. Supplies on hand total $940 at March 31.

adjusting entry = $2,900 - $940 = $1,960

Dr Supplies expense 1,960

    Cr Supplies 1,960

5. The one-year insurance policy was purchased for $14,740 on January 1.

insurance expense per quarter = $14,470 x 3/12 = $3,617.50 ≈ $3,618

Dr Insurance expense 3,618

    Cr Prepaid insurance 3,618

6. Income tax is estimated to be $2,600 for the quarter.

Prepare the quarterly adjusting entries required at March 31.

Dr Income tax expense 2,600

    Cr Income tax payable 2,600
