The expected return will be given by:
E(R)=Total sum of the expected return
E(R)=-0.1*0.3+0.1*0.4+0.3*0.3
E(R)=-0.03+0.04+0.09
E(R)=0.1=10%

We therefore conclude that the expected return is 10%

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Budgeted material cost for January is $ 256,000

Explanation:

Computations

<u>Raw materials requirement for January</u>

Units to be produced in January                                               24,000 units

Raw material requirement for January at 4 pounds per unit     96,000 pounds

<u>Raw materials requirement for February</u>

Units to be produced in February                                               28,000 units

Raw material requirement for February at 4 pounds per unit    112,000 pounds

40  % of requirement of February to be available end January  <u>44,800 pounds</u>

<u>Purchases for January</u>

Closing Inventory+ Consumption -Opening Inventory

44,800 pounds + 96,000 pounds  - 38,400 pounds =           102,400 pounds

Cost per pound  $ 2,50 per pound  = $ 256,000

A company uses the percent of sales method to determine its bad debts expense. At the end of the current year, the company's una
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

$3,355

Explanation:

Accounts receivables = $ 352,000

Debit Allowance for uncollectible accounts = 630

Net Sales = $797,000

The company estimates that 0.5% of net credit sales are uncollectible

Estimates of uncollectible receivables

= 0.5% × $797,000

=$3985

This is the total amount to be recognized at the end of the year as Bad Debts Expense. Since a debit of $630 has been recognized already, additional debit required

= 3985 - 630

= $3,355

The amount to be debited to Bad Debts Expense when the year-end adjusting entry is prepared is $3,355.
