Net present value is the difference between present value of cash inflows and initial outlay. The present value of cash inflows were obtained by multiplying the cash inflows by discount factors.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            The discount factors were calculated  using the formula (1 + r)-n,  where n represents number of years and r denotes discount rate.

juin [17]

Answer:

B) Credit to refund liability of $280,000

Explanation:

The total estimated returns are 85 of the total sales = 8% x $21,000,000 = $1,680,000.

Since the company had already accounted for $1,400,000 in returns, the adjusted necessary should be = total returns - accounted returns = $1,680,000 - $1,400,000 = $280,000

Since the refund liability account must increase, and it is a liability account, it should be credited.

Triss [41]

Answer:

Effect on income= $4,400 increase

<u>To calculate the effect on income, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Effect on income= number of units*unitary contribution margin

Effect on income= 4,400 (21 - 18 - 2)
