Answer:

$60,000

Explanation:

Since Bailey Co. changed their accounting for insurance expense from the cash-basis to the accrual-basis in the current year, and in January of the prior year, Bailey recorded insurance expense of $240,000 for the cash purchase of a four-year insurance policy.

Bailey should report the insurance transaction in the current year's financial statements of an amortization of the insurance expense over the four year period, and take account the portion that pertains to the current year.

Therefore = $240,000 / 4 years = $60,000 per year

Answer:

Bailey must adjust three accounts:

  1. insurance expense
  2. prepaid insurance
  3. retained earnings

First we will start to adjust retained earnings: since retained earnings were underestimated in the past year because $180,000 more of insurance expense was recorded, then we must increase it by $180,000.

Since the insurance will cover this year plus two more years, we must record two years worth of prepaid insurance = $60,000 x 2 = $120,000

Finally we must record the insurance expense for this year = $60,000

The adjusting entry will be:

Dr Insurance expense 60,000

Dr Prepaid insurance 120,000

    Cr Retained earnings 180,000

When using the allowance method for accounting for bad debts, accounts receivable is reported on the balance sheet at the expect
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

Have no effect on net realizable value

Explanation:

Net realizable value is the value of accounts receivable less any allowance for bad debts. This amount is reported in the balance sheet. Under allowance method, if a particular receivable is uncollectible, then the amount is reduced from both accounts receivable and allowance for bad debts. As such, there is no effect on the net realizable value as both the accounts are reduced by the amount that is uncollectible.

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

MRPL= $200 = wage rate when there are 5 workers

and MRPL = $1,200 = wage rate when there are 2 workers.

Explanation:

The computation of unionized is shown below:-

Marginal revenue product of labor = Marginal product × Price per unit

Workers   Total Production    Marginal Product     MRPL

                   (per day)

a                    b                        b × $8

0                   0

1                   200                         200                      $1,600

2                   350                          150                      $1,200

                                               (350 - 200)

3                   450                           100                    $800

                                               (450 - 350)

4                   500                          50                        $40

                                               (500 - 450)

5                   525                           25                       $200

                                               (525 - 500)

6                    510                         -15                        -$120

                                               (510 - 525)

From the above table MRPL = $200 = wage rate when there are 5 workers

and MRPL = $1,200 = wage rate when there are 2 workers.
