Answer:

Debit to Service Revenue $778 and credit accounts receivable $778.

Debit accounts payable $540 and Credit Store supplies $540

Explanation:

When sales is made to a customer on credit or account, the entries required are debit accounts receivable, and credit revenue. When the customer makes payment, credit accounts receivable ( with the amount paid) and debit the cash account.

Hence, if a collection on account from a customer for $778 was recorded as a debit to Cash $778 and a credit to Service Revenue $778, to correct this, post Debit to Service Revenue $778 and credit accounts receivable $778.

Also, when store supplies are purchased on account, debit store supplies and credit accounts payable with the cost of the supplies received. when payment is made, debit account payable and credit cash account.

Hence where the purchase of store supplies on account for $1,280 was recorded as a debit to Store Supplies $1,820 and a credit to Accounts Payable $1,820. The entries are right but the amount stated is wrong.

Difference (overstatement in both accounts) = $1,820 - $1,280

=$540

To correct this,

Debit accounts payable $540

Credit Store supplies    $540

Choose the statement about ITQs that is correct.
melomori [17]

Answer:

D.  When ITQs are​ used, no one has an incentive to cheat and exceed the quota.      

Explanation:

As ITQs (individual transferable quotas) were initially created by the government to regulate an above all, social affair, which is related to the share in the total allowable catch of fish (species).

Since some of the fishermen have lower and some have higher marginal costs of "producing" fish, they trade ITQ's between themselves, with those who have high marginal costs selling ITQs to those that have low marginal costs. Also, the marginal private cost now becomes determined by the initial marginal private cost of the fish, plus the <u>price of the ITQ</u>. Then, it becomes known as the marginal social cost.

The equilibrium for the ITQ price is the difference between the <em>marginal social benefit</em> and the marginal cost. With the base marginal private cost becoming the marginal social cost, no one has the incentive to exceed the quota, as that would make the marginal cost go higher than the price, and the marginal profit lower. This notion creates the equality between self-interest and social interest.

Pharrell, Inc., has sales of $602,000, costs of $256,000, depreciation expense of $62,500, interest expense of $29,500, and a ta
hjlf

Answer:

The earnings per share figure is $1.89

Explanation:

Sales of $602,000

Costs of $256,000

Depreciation expense of $62,500

Interest expense of $29,500

Tax rate of 40 percent.

-> Profit Before Tax  = Sales - Cost - Depreciation Expense - Interest expense

= $602,000 - $256,000 - $62,500 - $29,500

= $254,000

Net profit = Profit before Tax x (1 - Tax rate) = $254,000 * (1 - 40%) = $152,400

Earnings per share = (net profit - dividend paid for preferred stock)/ common stock outstanding = ($152,400-$44,500)/ 57,000

= $1.89
