Which of the following best explains why resources need to be allocated in the game of economics? C. There are not enough resources to produce all of the good and services that everyone wants. There will never be enough resources available to produce everything that every person wants, so there needs to be a purpose for the ones we do have available and where they need to be allocated. Although, in a perfect world, there will be enough goods and services that everyone wants available when they want them, that just isn't the case so it's important to make sure the needs are produced before the wants.

Monty Company reports the following financial information before adjustments. Dr. Cr. Accounts Receivable $132,800 Allowance for
creativ13 [48]

Answer: The following journal entries apply:

a) Debit Bad debt expense                                    $32,727.6  

  Credit Allowance for doubtful accounts            $32,727.6

b) Debit Bad debt expense                                    $37,017.6  

  Credit Allowance for doubtful accounts            $37,017.6

Explanation: All the sales revenue are on credit to the tune of $806,700, however, there was sales return and allowance of $51,060, which has to be deducted from credit sales to arrive at the net credit sales of $755,640. This amount would be added to the accounts receivable of $132,800 to arrive at the total accounts receivable of $888,440.

a) 4% of $888,440 is $35,537.6. With credit balance of $2,810 in allowance for doubtful accounts, bad debt expense (addition) is $32,727.6  ($35,537.6 - $2,810).

b) 4% of $888,440 is $35,537.6 and there is a debit balance of $1,480 in allowance for doubtful accounts, bad debt expense (to reinstate allowance account to $35,537.6) is $37,017.6 ($35,537.6 + $1,480).

A food manufacturer reports the following for two of its divisions for a recent year.
hram777 [196]

Answer:

1. 13.8% and 14.6%

2. 13.6% and 16.5%

3. 1.01 times and 0.88 times

Explanation:

The computations are shown below:

1. Return on investment = Operating Income ÷ Average invested Assets

where, average invested assets would be

= (Invested assets, beginning + Invested assets, ending) ÷ 2

For Beverage Division, it would be

= $366 ÷ {($2,696 + $2,610) ÷ 2}

= $366 ÷ $2,653

= 13.8%

For Cheese Division, it would be

= $651 ÷ {($4,489 + $4,417) ÷ 2}

= $651 ÷ $4,453

= 14.6%

2. Profit margin = (Operating income ÷ sales) × 100

For Beverage Division, it would be

= ($366 ÷ $2,698) × 100

= 13.6%

For Cheese Division, it would be

= ($651 ÷ $3,942) × 100

= 16.5%

3. Investment turnover = Sales ÷ Average Operating Assets

For Beverage Division, it would be

= $2,698 ÷ {($2,696 + $2,610) ÷ 2}

= $2,698 ÷ $2,653

= 1.01 times

For Cheese Division, it would be

= $3,942 ÷ {($4,489 + $4,417) ÷ 2}

= $3,942 ÷ $4,453

= 0.88 times

Suppose that you are a systems analyst on a project that involves modifying the sales order process. Since your company receives
mina [271]

Answer:

Sample size = 384.16 ≈ 385

If we increase the order size to 25,000, there will be no change in the sample size as sample size is independent of the number of orders

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Number of sales order received  per day = 2500

Confidence level = 95%

Certainty factor for 95% certainty = 1.96

Now,

Sample size = 0.25\times(\frac{\textup{Certainty factor}}{\textup{1 -Desired accuracy}})^2

on substituting the respective values, we get

Sample size = 0.25\times(\frac{\textup{1.96}}{\textup{1 - 0.95}})^2

or

Sample size = 384.16 ≈ 385

If we increase the order size to 25,000, there will be no change in the sample size as sample size is independent of the number of orders

David Ricardo was a classical economist known for various economic theory. Some of his theories include :

  1. Labour Theory of Value
  2. Ricardian Equivalence
  3. Theory of comparative advantage
  4. Theory of rent

Theory of rents

David Ricardo defined rest as the part of the produce of an agricultural land that is paid to the landowner for the use of the land.  He postulated that  benefits of an increase in prices of grain accrue to land owners in the form of rent

He used this theory to answer a question that arose during the Napoleonic wars (18.05-1815)  when there was a great increase in corn and land prices. The question was : Did the rise in land prices raise the price of corn or did the high price of corn increase the demand for land and led to an increase in the price of land ?
