Cr Accounts receivable - C. Green $800
2. 9-Mar
Dr Accounts receivable - C. Green $300
Cr Allowance for doubtful accounts $300
3. 9-Mar

Cr Accounts receivable - C. Green $300
Explanation:
1. On January 1 Gomez Corp was said to use the allowance method to account for uncollectibles which means we have to record the write off as uncollectibles by Debiting Allowance for doubtful accounts with $800 and Credit Accounts receivable - C. Green with the same amount.
2. On March 9, receives a payment of $300 from Green which means we have to record the accounts receivables reinstated by
Debiting Accounts receivable - C. Green with $300 and Crediting Allowance for doubtful accounts with same amount.
3. Since it receives a payment of $300 from Green on March 9 we have to record cash receipt by Debiting Cash with $300 and Crediting Accounts receivable - C. Green with $300.
Answer:
a)
Project Y and Project Z
b)
Project X and Project Y
c)
Project X and Project Z
Explanation:
Apply the CAPM to calculate the required return for each project as followed:
Project W: 4% + 0.75 * (11%-4%) = 9.25%
Project X: 4% + 0.90 * (11%-4%) = 10.3%
Project Y: 4% + 1.15 * (11%-4%) = 12.05%
Project Z: 4% + 1.45 * (11%-4%) = 14.15%
So, for:
a)
Which projects have a higher expected return than the firms 11 percent cost of capital: Project Y 12.8% and Project Z 13.9% which are given.
b)
Project should be accepted is project that has expected returns higher than required return which is Project X and Project Y.
c)
Using the firm's overall cost of capital as a hurdle rate:
Project Z will be accepted which is incorrect because its Required returned is higher than its expected returns ( 14.15% > 13.9%)
Project X will be rejected which is incorrect because its Required returned is lower than its expected returns ( 10.3% < 10.8%).
Answer:
Overhead application rate
= <u>Budgeted overhead</u>
Budgeted machine hours
= <u>$266,400</u>
18,500 hours
= $14.40 per machine hour
Overhead applied
= Overhead application rate x Actual machine hours
= $14.40 x 19,050 hours
= $274,320
Under-applied overhead
= Overhead applied - Actual factory overhead
= $274,320 - $287,920
= $13,600
Explanation:
In this question, there is need to determine the overhead application rate, which is the ratio of budgeted factory overhead to budgeted machine hours. Then, we will calculate the overhead applied, which is overhead application rate multiplied by actual machine hours. Under-applied overhead is the difference between overhead applied and actual factory overhead. .
