Answer:

Explanation:

1. Before passing the journal entries, we have to determine the amount of bonus payable that is shown below:

Let us assume that the bonds payable at the year end be X

So, the equation is

X = 0.03 × ($500,000 - X)

X = $15,000 - 0.03X

X + 0.03 = $15,000

X = $15,000 ÷ 1.03

   = $14,563

Now the journal entries are

2. Employees bonus expense A/c Dr $14,563

               To Bonus payable A/c $14,563

(Being the bonus  due is recorded)

3. Bonus payable A/c Dr $14,563

           To Cash A/c $14,563

(Being the payment is recorded)

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

(a) What was the total of accounts written off during the first 11 months?

bad debts written for the first 11 months = allowance for bad debt accounts January 1 balance + bad debt expense - allowance for bad debt accounts November 30 balance = $13,085 + $21,937 - $9,919 = $25,103

(b) As the result of a comprehensive analysis, it is determined that the December 31, 2010, balance of the Allowance for Bad Debts account should be $9,450. Show the adjustment required in the journal entry format.Allowance for bad debt Debit $Bad debt expenses Credit $

to determine the amount of bad debt expense that must be adjusted, we must subtract the estimated balance in December 31 from the balance in November 30 = $9,919 - $9,450 = $469. Since the November 30 amount is larger, it means that we over estimated our bad debt expense and it must be reduced:

Dr Allowance for doubtful accounts 469

    Cr Accounts receivable 469

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

The most probable result is that the court will declare the contract invalid and non-binding because the purchase price and important terms regarding the consideration involve are too vague and indefinite.

In order for a contract to be considered valid and binding, consideration must exist and the more precise the terms, the better. Consideration is something of value that both parties exchange. In this case it is a house vs. money, but the price is not specified.
