Answer:

Explanation:

In 1985, winner's prize money = $170

in 2007 winner's cheque = $ 1,173,000

percentage increase per year:

170 * ( 1 + r)^n = 1173000

(1+r)^112 = 6900

r = 8.212%

b)  If the winner's prize increases at the same rate, amount will it be in 2040

= $170 * (1+8.212%)^145  = $15,863,002

Answer:

The amount of bad debt exp is 7000

Explanation:

Allowance for bad debt exp has a credit balance of 7500 before adjusting entry

Bad debt exp Dr. 7000

Allowance for doubtful accounts Cr 7000

podryga [215]

Answer:

A and B.

Explanation:

Understand  cost classification used for assigning costs to cost objects can be divided in direct costs and indirect costs.

Direct costs are those who can be easily and conveniently traced to a unit of product or other cost object. Examples are direct material and labor.

Indirect costs are those who cannot be easily and conveniently traced to a unit of product or other cost object. Example manufacturing overhead.

The common costs are the indirect costs incurred in support a number of cost objects. These costs cannot be traced to any individual cost object.

Determining cost tracing and allocation is more art than science, as it's difficult to trace costs with 100 percent accuracy.

Tracing costs becomes even more difficult when a cost goes toward producing multiple goods or services.
