Answer:

2018

Preferred Dividend = $54,000

Common Stockholders = $9,000

2019

Preferred Dividend arrears =$54,000

Common Stockholders = $0

2020

Preferred Dividend = $54,000

Common Stockholders = $270,000

Explanation:

Preferred stockholders has an advantage that they are paid first when there is any dividend is announced. The residual dividend will be divided into the common stockholders. Any prior years due dividend and current years dividend associated with preferred share will be paid first.

As per given data

Preferred shares = 18,000 x $50 = $900,000

Preferred Dividend = $900,000 x 6% = $54,000

2018

Dividend Declared = $63,000

Dividend Allocated to Common Stockholders = Dividend Declared - Preferred Dividend = $63,000 - $54,000 = $9,000

2019

Dividend Declared = $0

Preferred Dividend Arrears = $54,000

2020

Dividend Declared = $378,000

Preferred Dividend Arrears = $54,000

Dividend Allocated to Common Stockholders = Dividend Declared - Preferred Dividend - Preferred Dividend Arrears = $378,000 - $54,000 - $54,000 = $270,000

  • Assuming 5% of accounts receivable, the journal entry:  

Dr Bad Debt Expense $ 20.200  

Cr Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts  $ 20.200

  • FINAL Balance  

Dr Accounts Receivable  $ 229.700  

Cr Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts  $ 25.000

Bad accounts are those credits granted by the company and there is no possibility of being charged.

When customers buy products on credits but the company cannot collect the debt, then it's necessar to cancel the unpaid invoice as uncollectible.

One way is to directly cancel bad debts at the time it was decided that the credit is bad, the total amount reported as bad debt expenses negatively affect the income statement and the accounts receivable are reduced by the same amount, less assets

The other way is to determine a percentage of the total amount of accounts receivable as bad debts, there are many ways to analyze accounts receivable and calculate the value of bad debts.

When the company has the percentage of uncollectible accounts, the required journal entry is Bad Expenses (debit) with Reserve for Bad Accounts (credit)

At the time of cancellation, since the expenses were recognized before, we only use the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (Debit)  with accounts receivable (credit), with this we are recognizing the bad credit of the company.

A lender estimates that the closing costs on a $165,000 home loan will be $6,187.50. The actual closing costs were 3.5% of the l
Ivanshal [37]
Home loan amount = $165,000

Estimated closing costs = $6,187.50 

% of estimated closing cost = ?

$165,000 * x% = $6,187.50
x% = $6,187.50 ÷ $165,000
x% = 0.0375
x = 0.0375 x 100 = 3.75

Therefore, estimated closing costs = 3.75% of loan amount = 3.75% of $165,000

Actual closing costs = 3.5% of loan amount = 3.5% of $165,000 = $5775

Difference in estimated and actual closing cost percent = 3.75% - 3.5% = 0.25%

The closing costs were lower than the estimate by 0.25%

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Ans. rate of return= 7.37%

Explanation:

The easiest way to find this discount rate is to set a MS Excel sheet and use the function "Find Goal". In the attachments, there is a spreadsheet that I got ready for you. There are 2 cells in color, one is yellow and the other one is green. You just go ahead and replace the value of the green cell with any percentage that you want, for example, 2%, then use the function "find goal" and set the objective cell to be the yellow cell (B5), changing the cell in green (B7), and hit enter.

Best of luck.

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Units produced 600 units

Direct materials $40 per unit

Direct labor $13 per unit

Variable manufacturing overhead $6 per unit

Variable selling and administrative costs $4 per unit

The variable costing method calculates the cost of goods based on direct material, direct labor, and variable manufacturing overhead.

First, we need to calculate the unitary cost of production:

unitary cost= 40 + 13 + 6= $59

Inventory= 600 units - 450 units= 150 units

Inventory cost= 150*59= $8,850
