Answer:

The amount that Plunkett should report in ending inventory on December 31 is $156,300

Explanation:

The computation of the ending inventory is shown below:

= Ending inventory balance - FOB destination goods purchased - goods being held on consignment

= $215,500 - $44,100 - $15,100

= $156,300

The other items would not be adjusted because the other items are not included in the ending inventory so they are not being considered in the computation part.

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

C. Statute of limitations.

Explanation:

Statute of limitations are laws which states the time limit of when legal proceedings must be initiated between concerned parties from the date in which alleged offence was perpetrated.

In statue of limitations, the time limit for somebody is wronged to initiate legal action is not fixed in all jurisdiction. It means that depending on the nature of the alleged offense under statute of limitation, time allowed to institute legal actions varies.

Example of statue of limitation is that for certain states, the time limit to initiate legal case say on fraud is two years. It means that one must bring up the case in a court of law within the stipulated two years period. Once the two year grace elapse, one can no longer sue for fraud in the court of law.

Although there is no time limit for certain offence like murder case, sex offence with minor etc.

As in the case above, the judge threw away the case because according to the law of statute of limitation, a party that is wronged can only sue the wrong doer within the stipulated time as spelt out within the jurisdiction where the alleged offence was committed.

Exercise 7-4A Effect of recognizing uncollectible accounts expense on financial statements: Percent of revenue allowance method
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Rosie Dry Cleaning

a. Organization of the transaction data in accounts under an accounting equation:

Year 1:

The accounting equation is Assets = Liabilities + Equity.

1) Provided $29,940 of cleaning services on account.

Assets (Accounts Receivable) increases by $29,940; Equity (Retained Earnings) increases by $29,940.  So, Assets + $29,940 = Liabilities + Equity + $29,940.

2) Collected $23,952 cash from accounts receivable.

Assets (Cash) increases by $23,952 and Assets (Accounts Receivable) decreases by $23,952.  So, Assets + $23,952 and - $23,952 = Liabilities + Equity.

3) Adjusted the accounting records to reflect the estimate that uncollectible accounts expense would be 1 percent of the cleaning revenue on account.

Assets (Accounts Receivable) reduces by $59.88 and Equity (Retained Earnings) reduces by $59.88.  So, Assets - $59.88 = Liabilities + Equity - $59.88.

Year 2:

1. Wrote off a $225 account receivable that was determined to be uncollectible.

Assets (Accounts Receivable) decreases by $225 and Equity (Retained Earnings) decreases by $225.  So, Assets - $225 = Liabilities + Equity - $225.

2. Provided $34,940 of cleaning services on account.

Assets (Accounts Receivable) increases by $34,940 and Equity (Retained Earnings) increases by $34,940.  So, Assets + $34,940 = Liabilities + Equity + $34,940.

3. Collected $30,922 cash from accounts receivable.

Assets (Cash) increases by $30,922 and Assets (Accounts Receivable) decreases by $30,922.  So, Assets + $30,922 - $30,922 = Liabilities + Equity.

4. Adjusted the accounting records to reflect the estimate that uncollectible accounts expense would be 1 percent of the cleaning revenue on account.

Assets (Accounts Receivable) decreases by $37.93 ($97.81 - $59.88) and Equity (Retained Earnings) decreases by $37.93.  So, Assets - $37.93 = Liabilities + Equity - $37.93.

b. 1) Net Income for Year 1:

Sales = $29,940

less Allowance for uncollectible = $59.88)

Total = $29,880.12

2) Net Cash Flows from operating activities for Year 1 = $23,952.

3) Balance of Accounts Receivable at the end of Year 1:

Sales = $29,940

Less Cash Receipt = $23,952

Balance = $5,988

4) Net Realizable value of accounts receivable at the end of Year 1.

Accounts Balance = $5,988

less Allowance for Uncollectible = $59.88

Net Realizable = $5,928.12

c 1) Net Income for Year 1:

Sales = $34,940

less Bad Debts Expense = $262.93 ($37.93 + $225)

Total = $34,677.07

2) Net Cash Flows from operating activities for Year 1 = $30,922.

3) Balance of Accounts Receivable at the end of Year 1:

Beginning balance = $5,988

Sales = $34,940

Less Bad Debts Expense = $225

Less Cash Receipt = $30,922

Balance = $9,781

4) Net Realizable value of accounts receivable at the end of Year 1.

Accounts Balance = $9,781

less Allowance for Uncollectible = $97.81

Net Realizable = $9,683.19

Explanation:

The accounting equation states that Assets equal Liabilities plus Equity.  Any change in one side of the equation affects the other.  Sometimes, a transaction or event affects one side only by increasing one account and decreasing another account on the same side of the equation.  Examples are demonstrated in the answer above.

When an uncollectible is deemed bad, it reduces the Accounts Receivable and increases the bad debt expense.  The overall effect on the accounting equation is a reduction in Assets and Equity respectively.

The following information applies to the questions displayed below) Serendipity Sound, Inc., manufactures and sells compact disc
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

  1. $25.50
  2. 90,000 units
  3. 140,000 units

Explanation:

1. Current contribution margin ratio

= (Selling price - Variable cost)/ Selling price

= (25 - 19.8) / 25

= 0.208

New Direct labor = 5.0 * ( 1 + 8%)

= $5.40

New variable cost = 19.8 + 0.4 = $20.20

To maintain 0.208

0.208 = (Selling price - 20.20) / Selling price

0.208 * Price = Price - 20.20

0.208Price - Price = -20.20

-0.792Price = -20.20

Price = -20.20/-0.792

Price = $25.50

2. Breakeven = Fixed Cost / Contribution Margin

Contribution Margin = Selling price - Variable cost

= 25 - 19.8

= $5.20

= 468,000/5.2

= 90,000 units

3. To earn $260,000;

= (Fixed Cost + 260,000) / Contribution margin

= (468,000 + 260,000) /5.2

= 140,000 units

Cost is most plainly visible when spending more money on one thing means that less money can be spent on another thing. True or
SSSSS [86.1K]

The given statement about cost is a true statement as cost becomes most obvious when more money must be spent on one thing, leaving less available for another.

<h3>What is the cost?</h3>

A cost is often the value of the money that was expended during the production or delivery of something or service and is now unavailable for use.

Manufacturing, research, retail, and accountancy all make use of this idea. In business transactions, the cost may be an acquisition cost, in which case the amount of money spent to acquire it is considered to be part of the cost.

Finally, cost becomes most apparent when more money spent on one thing leaves less money for another. This corresponds to a true statement.

As a result, opportunity cost describes a decision we must make in order to make another one.

You have $50, for instance, which you may spend on a date with your partner or on your preferred game. The inability to purchase the game is your opportunity cost if you decide to utilize that money to take your partner out on a date.
