Answer:
Explanation:
A) Energy can be both a fixed cost and a variable cost for a company. This is due to the sense that energy in the form of fixed electricity bill even when no production takes place (telephone bill), a fixed cost and electricity bill when production takes place would be a variable cost
B) An increment in fixed cost will shift the ATC curve to the right while the MC curve would remain the same because MC is the change in variable cost as output increases and is not related to fixed cost.
C) Corn cost is a variable cost for ethanol producer as each unit of corn is used to produce ethanol and thus use of corn is reliant upon how much ethanol is produced. This makes corn a variable input dependent on the production of output, therefore, the cost of corn is variable.
D) An increment in the variable cost will shift the ATC curve to the right and individual MC curve to the right.
Answer:
The amount of Bad Debt Expense reported in 2019 was $16,100.
Explanation:
Our concern is mainly on the allowance for doubtful accounts. Based on the facts given in the question, the opening balance of the allowance account was $79,900 credit balance, while the closing balance was $96,000 credit. Since there were no write-offs or recoveries during 2019, the bad debt expense is simply the difference between the closing balance and the opening balance i.e, $96,000 - $79,900 = $16,100.
The journal entries will be:
Debit Bad debt expense $16,100
Credit Allowance for doubtful account $16,100
<em>(To record the bad debt expense for 2019) </em>
Answer: 1 year and 6 months
Explanation:
The cash flows are as follows,
Year 0 = ($2,500)
Year 1 = $1,500
Year 2 = $1,500
Year 3 = $1,500
Payback period is the time it will take to break even the intial investment (In this question the initial investment is $2,500)
The sum of the cashflows of year1 and year2 is equal to $3,000
which means that the payback period is somewhere bbetween year 1 and year2
1500/3000 = 0.5 year or 6 months
the total payback period is 1 year and 6 months
