Answer:

4) All of the above

Explanation:

The day care program should have rewardedbeing on time to encourage this attitude.

Instead they put a price on being late. As parent considers this price cheap they arrive later to have some extra time beofre picking their childrens

Either the day care program reconsiders the fine policy and moves into a better program to estimulate being on time or it increases the "price" so is more expensive for the parents to come in time rather than paiying their fines.

Answer:

The correct answer is number (4): All of the above.

Explanation:

<em>The fine eliminated the non-financial incentives to be on time </em>and <em>the fine was perceived as a price </em>because parents possibly felt guilty for picking up their children late but no punishments were given before the penalty. Since it was introduced, parents may consider it a fair trade for being late and are willing to pay the penalty.

Besides, it is possible that <em>the fine was not high enough to make parents change their behavior</em> because instead of decreasing the number of parents picking up their children late, the penalty increased it.

a) Debit Bad debt expense                                    $32,727.6  

  Credit Allowance for doubtful accounts            $32,727.6

b) Debit Bad debt expense                                    $37,017.6  

  Credit Allowance for doubtful accounts            $37,017.6

a) 4% of $888,440 is $35,537.6. With credit balance of $2,810 in allowance for doubtful accounts, bad debt expense (addition) is $32,727.6  ($35,537.6 - $2,810).

b) 4% of $888,440 is $35,537.6 and there is a debit balance of $1,480 in allowance for doubtful accounts, bad debt expense (to reinstate allowance account to $35,537.6) is $37,017.6 ($35,537.6 + $1,480).

On 31 December 2021: Debit Compensation expense for $41,067; and Credit Paid-in capital from share options for $41,067.

On 06 January 2022: Debit Cash for $48,000; Debit Paid-in capital from share options for $22,400; Credit Common stock for $3,200; and Credit Paid in capital in excess of par- common stock (balancing figure) for $67,200.

Explanation:

Note: See part b of the the attached excel file for the journal entries

Also note that before the journal entries are recorded, the current compensation expense for year 2019, 2020 and 2021 are first calculated. See part a of the attached excel file for the calculation of the the current compensation expense for year 2019, 2020 and 2021.

In part a of the attached excel file, the estimated compensation cost for 2019, 2020 and 2021 are calculated as follows:

Estimated compensation cost for 2019 = Option value on the grant date * Number of executives * (1 - Expected option forfeited rate) * Number of shares in the option = $14 * 50 * (1 - 15%) * 200 = $119,000

Estimated compensation cost for 2020 = Option value on the grant date * Number of executives * (1 - Expected option forfeited rate) * Number of shares in the option = $14 * 50 * (1 - 15%) * 200 = $119,000

Estimated compensation cost for 2021 = Option value on the grant date * (Number of executives - Actual executives turnover for the entire service period) * Number of shares in the option = $14 * (50 - 7) * 200 = $120,400

On 06 January 2022, the calculation of the entries used in the part b of the attached excel file are as follows:

w.1. Cash = Number of executives who exercise their options * Number of shares in the option * Purchase price per share after completing a 3-year service period = (8 * 200 * $30) = $48,000  

w.2. Paid-in capital from share options = Number of executives who exercise their options * Number of shares in the option * Option value on the grant date = (8 * 200 * 14) = $22,400

w.3. Common Stock = Number of executives who exercise their options * Number of shares in the option * Sahre par value = (8 * 200 * $2) = $3,200

w.4. Paid in capital in excess of par- common stock (balancing figure)  = Cash + Paid-in capital from share options - Common Stock = $48,000 + $22,400 - $3,200 = $67,200
