Answer:

Days' sales in receivables= 31.91 days

Explanation:

The day's sales in account receivable ratio is also called average collection period. It states the number of days on the average to collect a business's account receivable.

Days sales turnover is calculated by dividing total number of days in a year by the account recievables turnover ratio.

The formula for accounts receivable turnover ratio= Current credit sales received/ Accounts receivable balance

Accounts receivable turnover= 1,453,909/127,100

Accounts receivable turnover= 11.439

Assume a 365 day year

Days' sales in receivables= 365/Account receivable turnover

Days' sales in receivables= 365/11.439

Days' sales in receivables= 31.908~ 31.91 days

At the end of 2003, Ritzcar Co. fails to accrue sales commissions earned during 2003, but paid in 2004. The error is not repeate
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

The effect of this error on 2003 ending working capital is that it overstated the ending 2003 working capital.

The error does not have effect on the 2004 ending retained earnings balance.

Explanation:

Let the amount of the commission expense be xxxx.

At the end of 2003, the journal entries should have been as follows:

Debit Commission expense for xxxx

Credie Commission payable for xxxx

Also, we have:

Working capital = Current assets – Current liabilities ………… (1)

From equation (1), current liabilities are understated because commission payable which was not recorded is an item under current liabilities. Since the current liabilities are understated, that indicates that the working capital in equation is overstated. Therefore, the effect of this error on 2003 ending working capital is that it overstated the ending 2003 working capital.

When the 2003 commission expense in the entries above was paid in 2004, it would have been recognized as an expense. This made the error to counterbalance. This implies that the 2004 ending retained earnings balance is still correct despite that there are errors in the earnings of the two years. Therefore, the error does not have effect on the 2004 ending retained earnings balance.
