Answer:

The sale entry would be:

Dr Trade Receivable $ 600,000

Cr Sale $600,000

And the inventory sent out of warehouse to customer would be recorded as:

Dr Cost of goods sold $360,000

Cr Finished Goods account $360,000

Explanation:

As we know the sale is credit in nature and inventory sold on credit increases the trade receivable which is debit in nature.

So the entry would be:

Dr Trade Receivable $ 600,000

Cr Sale $600,000

And the inventory sent out of warehouse to customer would be recorded as:

The reason is that once the product is sold then the cost of finished goods is eliminated from the inventory account and would be charged to the cost of goods sold. So the entry would be posted by the cost of equivalent that the company has incurred to manufacture the product. Here the cost of equivalent is given and is $6 per unit.

So for the sale of 60,000 units the total cost of equivalent will be:

Total equivalent cost = 60,000 units * $6 per unit = $360,000

And the entry would be:

Dr Cost of goods sold $360,000

Cr Finished Goods account $360,000

Riley Company promises to pay Janet Anderson or her estate $150,000 per year for the next 10 years, even if she leaves the compa

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

The Answer is explanatory so it is given as under:

Explanation:

Part 1. At the start of the year:

The part of the salary includes $150,000 per year for the next 10 years and this must be recorded as an deferred compensation liability. All we have to do is to calculate the present value of the annual salary payments.

Present Value = Annual Payment * Annuity factor

And for Annuity factor we will use 5% rate of interest.

So

Annuity Factor = (1 - (1-r)^n) / r

Here

r = 5%

n = 10 years

Which means

Annuity Factor = (1 - (1 + 5%)^10) / 5% = 7.722

Hence

Present value = $150,000 * 7.722 = $1,158,260

So the journal entry would be as under:

Dr Deferred Compensation expense $1,158,260

Cr Deferred Compensation Liability $1,158,260

Part 2. At the end of the Year 1:

At the first year end, the annual payment of $1,158,260 will be discounted back by using the following formula:

Discounted Back Amount = Annual Amount * (1- (1+r)^n)

Remember for the first year n is 10, for second n is 9 and so on.

Discounted Back Amount = 150,000 x (1 - 0.614) = $57,913

Dr Deferred Compensation Expense $57,913

Cr Deferred Compensation Liability $57,913

Part 3. And when the first payment of the salary is made, the journal entry would be:

Dr Deferred compensation Liability $ 150,000

Cr Cash Account $150,000

Likewise we will till the year 10 and will record the part 2 and part 3 until at the end of the year 10, the whole of the deferred tax liability is reduced to zero.

The life insurance policy payments can not be offset against the deferred compensation liability because it will be accounted for as a different transaction and hence must not be treated as Riley desires.

So the Cash surrender value will be treated as an asset and annual increase in this asset would be treated as an income.

The government unit that wants to achieve "revenue enhancement" will find it considerably more favorable to enact an excise tax

boyakko [2]

Answer:

C. highly inelastic

Explanation:

An excise tax on a product will increase its price from the equilibrium point, to a higher point set by the government.

If the government was to enhance its revenue by this means, it should enact the excise tax on products that are highly inelastic.

This is because a highly inelastic product is one whose quantity demanded does not fall considerably even if the price rises a lot.

This means that even if the product is more expensive after the excise tax, consumer will continue to buy it, increasing government revenue in this way.

Suppose that the total revenue received by a company selling basketballs is $600 when the price is set at $15 per basketball and

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

I think the answer is unit-elastic over this price range. This happens when a company earns the same revenue even with some slight changes on the prices. It means that slight increase or even decrease in price does not affect the revenue of the company.
