Answer:

Inventory cycle =<u> Inventory    </u>             x       365 days

                            Cost of goods sold

                          = <u>$75,000 </u>   x 365 days

                             $360,000

                          = 76 days

Receivable days = <u>Receivables</u> x 365 days

                               Sales  

                             = <u>$160,000</u> x 365 days

                                $600,000  

                             = 97 days

Payable days = <u>Payables        </u>         x 365 days

                         Cost of goods sold

                        = <u>$25,000 </u>          x 365 days

                           $360,000

                        = 25 days

Cash conversion cycle = Inventory cycle + Receivable days - Payable days

Cash conversion cycle = 76 + 97 - 25 = 148 days

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Explanation:

Cash conversion cycle is the aggregate of inventory cycle and receivable days minus payable days. Inventory cycle is the ratio of inventory to cost of sales multiplied by 365 days. Receivable days measure the ratio of receivables to sales multiplied by 365 days. Payable days measure the ratio of payables to cost of sales multiplied by 365 days. Cash conversion cycle is the time lag between when inventory is purchased and when payment is made.

On January 1, Year 2, Kincaid Company's Accounts Receivable and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts carried balances of $76,000
trapecia [35]

Answer:

The effect the entry to recognize the uncollectible accounts expense for Year 2 will have on the elements of the financial statements are that it will reduce Accounts Receivable to $15,560 and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts to $1,900 at the end of Year 2.

Explanation:

Credit sales estimated to be uncollectable = Credit sales * Estimated percentage uncollectable = $215,000 * 1% = $2,150

Ending account receivable = Beginning accounts receivable + Credit sales - Cash collected - Receivales written off as uncollectable - Credit sales estimated to be uncollectable = $76,000 + $215,000 - $271,100 - $2,100 - $2,150 = $15,560

Ending Allowance for Doubtful Accounts = Beginning Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - Receivales written off as uncollectable = $4,000 - $2,100 = $1,900

Therefore, the effect the entry to recognize the uncollectible accounts expense for Year 2 will have on the elements of the financial statements are that it will reduce Accounts Receivable to $15,560 and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts to $1,900 at the end of Year 2.

iogann1982 [59]

There is conflict and distrust in the team. Glen, the team leader, doesn't think the team members are working enough. The team members, on the other hand, don't think Glen trusts them to do their jobs. You want to resolve this conflict and make sure it doesn't happen again-<u>This can be achieved by using Conflict Management technique</u>

Explanation:

<u>Conflict in the workplace is inevitable and is a painful reality and is the major reason   for poor productivity and frustration among the employees.If conflict is managed in a proper way it can lead to increase in employees productivity.The strategist that can be used are:-</u>

<u>1) Understand the situation. </u>

Understanding/listening  both the side of the story before resolving the conflict is very important

<u>2) Acknowledge the problem. </u>

Acknowledging the frustration and concerns of the employees is an important step in resolving the conflict. what might seems to be a small problem to an employee may be a big problem for another person

<u> 3)Be patient while making decision. </u>

Information evaluation require time.Do not take any decision related to conflict management quickly,try to understand and resolve the situation.

<u>4)Avoid using coercion and intimidation. </u>

Emotional outbursts or coercing people may stop the problem temporarily, but do not fool yourself into thinking it is a long-term solution. Odds are the problem will resurface. At that point not only will you have the initial problem to deal with, but also the angry feelings that have festered below the surface during the interim.

<u>5) Focus on the problem, not the individual. </u>

Most people are known to be a  “problematic individual” during their work but one must avoid their  own pre-conceived notion or attitude about individuals and should focus on problem resolution.

<u>6) Establish guidelines. </u>

setting guidelines before the meeting

<u>7) Keep the communication open. </u>

Allow both the parties to keep their points on the conflict and then try to identify the real cause of conflict.

<u> 8. Act decisively. </u>

Communicating  to all the parties involved, and reviewed all the circumstances, and then take  your decision and act. Don’t leave the issue in limbo.

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Net account receivable

2021 $8,085

2022 $5,335

Explanation:

Calculation for the net account receivable

2021 2022

Total account receivable 14,700 9,700

(33,200-18,500=14,700)

(48,200-38,500=9,700)

Less: Allowance for doubtful accounts (6,615) (4,365)

(45%*14,700=6,615)

(45%*9,700=4,365)

Net account receivable 8,085 5,335

(14,700-6,615=8,085)

(9,700-4,365=5,335)

Therefore Net account receivable will be :

2021 $8,085

2022 $5,335
