Answer:

c. $24,500

Explanation:

The allowance for doubtful accounts is a contra-asset account that records the amount of receivables expected to be uncollectiblea, makes a reduction of the total amount of accounts receivable appearing on a company’s balance sheet. There are two way to estimate uncollectible accounts: the percentage of sales method and the accounts receivable aging method.

ABC Company uses the percentage of sales method - application a flat percentage to the total amount of net credit sales for the period.

Estimated uncollectible = 3% x $750,000 = $22,500

The company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts for $22,500 while simultaneously reporting $22,500 in bad debt expense.

Before adjusting on December 31, 2004, the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts had a credit balance of $2,000.

The balance in the allowance for doubtful accounts after adjustment is $22,500 + $2,000 = $24,500

Answer:

B. No.

Explanation:

The formula to compute the quick ratio is shown below:

Quick ratio = (Quick assets) ÷ (current liabilities)

where,

For 2018

Quick assets = Accounts Receivable, net + Cash and Cash Equivalents + Short minus Term Investments

= $49,000 + $70,000 + $44,000

= $163,000

And, the current liabilities = Accounts Payable + Income Taxes Payable

= $80,000 + 5,000

= $85,000

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the ratio would equal to

= $163,000 ÷ $90,000

= 1.81 times

For 2019

Quick assets = Accounts Receivable, net + Cash and Cash Equivalents + Short minus Term Investments

= $42,300 + $43,700 + $27,000

= $113,000

And, the current liabilities = Accounts Payable + Income Taxes Payable

= $76,500 + 2,000

= $78,500

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the ratio would equal to

= $113,000 ÷ $78,500

= 1.43 times

No, as it shows declining from 2018 to 2019

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

EAW = -$17,545.71

Explanation:

initial investment = $200,000

cash inflows;

Year 1 = $33,000
Year 2 = $44,000
Year 3 = $55,000
Year 4 = $66,000
Year 5 = $77,000
Year 6 = $88,000
Year 7 = $99,000
Year 8 = $110,000
Year 9 = $132,000

cash outflows:

Year 1 = $20,000
Year 2 = $30,000
Year 3 = $40,000
Year 4 = $50,000
Year 5 = $60,000
Year 6 = $70,000
Year 7 = $80,000
Year 8 = $90,000
Year 9 = $100,000

EAW = equivalent annual worth = equivalent annual benefits - equivalent annual costs

to determine the EAB we must first find the PV of the cash inflows using a financial calculator = $408,348.84

EAB = (PV x r) / [1 - (1 + r)⁻ⁿ] = ($408,348.84 x 10%) / [1 - (1 + 10%)⁻⁹] = $70,905.91

to determine the EAC we must first find the PV of the cash outflows (including initial outlay) using a financial calculator = $509,395

EAC = (PV x r) / [1 - (1 + r)⁻ⁿ] = ($509,395 x 10%) / [1 - (1 + 10%)⁻⁹] = $88,451.62

EAW = $70,905.91 - $88,451.62 = -$17,545.71

Marianna [84]

Answer:

The rate at which to discount the payments to find sum borrowed is 12.68%

Explanation:

The discount rate to be used in computing the sum borrowed can e derived from the effective annual rate formula below:

Effective annual rate = (1 + Quoted interest rate/m)^m - 1

quoted interest rate is 8.40

m is the number of months in a year when compounding is done which is 12

effective annual rate=(1+8.40%/12)^12-1

effective annual rate=(1+0.01)^12-1

effective annual rate=(1.01)^12-1

effective annual rate=1.12682503 -1

effective annual rate=0.12682503=12.68%
