Doss [256]

Answer:

$2,122,900

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what The Gross margin for September was

First step is to determine the variable costs

Variable costs= (317 * 7,100) + (44*7,100) + (22*7,100)

Variable costs= 2,250,700 + 312,400 + 156,200

Variable costs= $2,719,300

Now let determine the Gross margin

Using this formula

GM=Sales-VC

Let plug in the formula

Gross margin = (682 * 7,100) - 2,719,300

Gross margin = $2,122,900

Therefore The gross margin for September was:$2,122,900

On February 1, a customer's account balance of $2,700 was deemed to be uncollectible. What entry should be recorded on February

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

On February 1, a customer's account balance of $2,700 was deemed to be uncollectible.

The entry to be recorded on February 1 to record the write-off assuming the company uses the allowance method is:

Debit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $2,700; credit Accounts Receivable $2,700.

Explanation:

Using the allowance method, every bad debt entry is first reflected in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts before it is taken to the bad debt expense account.

The entries above reduce the Accounts Receivable account by the amount of the write-off and reduces the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts by the same amount. Any recovery of written off debt is also treated in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and the Accounts Receivable account in revised order. This method is unlike the direct write-off method. With the direct write-off method, the Accounts Receivable is credited with the amount of the write-off and the write-off is expensed in the Bad Debts Expense account directly.

Answer:

the efficiency variance for variable overhead setup costs is $4,810 favorable

Explanation:

The computation of the efficiency variance for variable overhead setup costs is shown below;

= ((15,700 ÷ 265) × 4.25) × $45 - ((15,700 ÷ 325) × 3) × $45

= $11,330.6604 - $6,521.5384

= $4,809.12 favorable

= $4,810 favorable

hence, the efficiency variance for variable overhead setup costs is $4,810 favorable

The cross-price elasticity of demand measures the a. percentage change in the quantity demanded of one good in one location divi

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

d. percentage change in the quantity demanded of one good divided by the percentage change in the price of another good.

Explanation:

Price-demand elasticity measures the demand sensitivity of a good when a change in the price of another good occurs. For example, what happens to the demand for bread when the price of butter varies? This depends on the cross elasticity of demand since these goods tend to be complementary.

The price elasticity of cross demand between two goods is easily calculated by a formula where the numerator is the change in the quantity of a good and the denominator is the percentage change in the price of the complementary good.

If the calculation of elasticity is greater than 1, it means that the amount demanded for bread is sensitive (elastic) to the price of butter and tends to vary sharply. If the result is between 0 and 1, the demand is inelastic, that is, the amount of bread demanded will not change considerably when the price of butter varies. If the calculation is equal to 1, then the demand for bread varies perfectly with the price of butter.

Why did the artist, Pablo Picasso, become wealthy during his lifetime and the artist, Vincent van Gogh, remain poor his entire l

Harman [31]

<u>The reason that Pablo Picasso, become wealthy during his lifetime and the artist, Vincent van Gogh, remain poor his entire life:</u>

Pablo Picasso and Vincent van Gogh had more features in common. They had unanimously indistinct style of arts which had become immediately identifiable.

In spite of all that, Picasso died as a rich man owning an estate which is estimated at nearly 750 million dollar whereas Van Gogh died as a pauper.

Studies claim that the reason behind this would be that, Van Gogh remained to be a loner and socially inactive. He was depending on his brother to meet the social world and in contrast Picasso was a charismatic active member in various social clubs where her had multiple number of contacts and connections.

It's been said that Pablo Picasso was a hub who had a vast network of social lines and Vincent Van Gogh was a silent or solitary node.

But now, the paintings of both the greatest artists were well spoken and sell for more than 100,000,000 US Dollars.
