Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

A perfectly competitive market is a market structure where there is no limitation or restriction on entry and exit of firms in the market. All potential firms can easily enter the market and all existing firms can easily exit.  

There are a large number of sellers in the market that sell homogenous products. Because of free entry and exit, these firms face competition from potential entrants. Since there is a large number of firms, these firms are price takers.

pogonyaev

Answer:

The gross profit margin for the cat condo is 50%

Explanation:

Since the gross profit per unit is not given, so first we have to find it. The calculation is shown below:

= Selling price per unit - Direct materials cost per unit - direct labor costs per unit - Manufacturing overhead per unit

= $90 per unit - $15 per unit - $10 per unit - $20 per unit ( $10 per unit × 200%)

= $45 per unit

Now apply the Gross profit formula which is shown below:

= (Gross profit per unit ÷ selling price per unit) × 100

= ($45 per unit ÷ $90 per unit) × 100

= 50%

Since you need $106 million to balance the account, that should be the amount of bad debt written off during the current year. Allowance for doubtful accounts is a contra asset account, any debit balance increases accounts receivable while a credit balance decreases it.
