Answer: Option C

 

Explanation: Short term receivables refers to the amount of receivables that are to be received within a year. Thus, discounting a value for just one period with the market interest rate won't make a big change in value.

Hence the discount is usually considered immaterial as it is very small in value.

The discounting method is usually used for the long term investments in which a huge amount is invested for a period more than on year. As interest rates could change the value of a amount received due to their fluctuating nature.

Thus, the correct option is C.

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Y=4200+0.074X

At  activity level of 80,000 kilometers total cost is $10,120

Explanation:

Variable cost=(cost at higher activity-cost at lower activity level)/(vol. at higher activity level-vol. at lower activity level)

cost at higher activity  level=105000*0.114=$11,970

cost at lower activity level=70000*$0.134=$9,380

variable cost=($11,970-$9,380)/(105,000-70,000)

                     =$0.074

The cost function is Y=a+bX

where Y is total cost

a is fixed cost

b is the variable cost

X is the volume of output at a particular level of output

by substituting variable cost at higher activity level of 105000 units

$11,970=a+($0.074*105000)

$11,970=a+$7770

a=$11,970-$7,770

a=$4,200

Y=4200+0.074X

If 80,000 kilometers were driven during the year,the total cost is computed thus:

Y=$4200+($0.074*80000)

Y=$4200+$5920

Y=$10,120

Direct materials used                          $9,700              $3,900

Direct labor                                             5,100                 8,100

Manufacturing overhead                       8,400                 4,100

Total manufacturing costs                  23,200               16,100

Beginning work in process inventory    1,100                 9,100

Ending work in process inventory        7,200                 3,100

Sales revenue                                     25,000              31,500

Sales discounts                                     2,600                 1,500

Cost of goods manufactured               17,100               22,100

Beginning finished goods inventory   5,000                 3,400

Goods available for sale                     22,100              25,500

Cost of goods sold                             18,600              22,900      

Ending finished goods inventory        3,500                 2,600

Gross profit                                          3,800                  7,100

Operating expenses                           2,800                  2,000

Net income                                          1,000                   5,100

Explanation:

To work out the missing figures involves some manoeuvres of the figures, working up or down as the case may be.  For example, to calculate the cost of goods sold in Case 1, I deducted the ending inventory of finished goods from the Goods available for sale.  With this figure, it becomes possible to work out the Gross profit and the Net income.

A seller listed a property for $96,000. The property sold for $94,000. How would the purchase price appear on a full settlement
olganol [36]

Answer:

Debiting the buyer and crediting the seller by $94,000

Explanation:

Since the seller listed a property for $96,000 and it sold for $94,000, so the purchase price would be selling price of the property as the property would be sold and the other person pays the money to buy the property.

or

Buyer A/c Dr      $94,000

    To Seller A/c              $94,000
