Explanation:

In order to record the journal entries for the premium offer for 2016, we need to calculate first the amount of the premium expenses as follows:

Pemium Expenses A/C dr=($2,000,000/5)*2=$800,000  

Therefore journal entries for the premium offer for 2016 would be as follows:

                                              Debit          Credit

Pemium Expenses A/C dr.  $800,000  

                          Current Liabilty          $800,000

 

Prize A/C dr.                    $480,000  

                                       Cash          $480,000

Prize=$560,000/5*2=$224,000

Current Liabilty A/C dr.      $224,000  

                                            Prize          $224,000

Net credit sales for the year are $750,000. The end of year accounts receivable balance is $160,000. The allowance for doubtful
alexandr402 [8]

Answer: $3000

Explanation: Allowance for doubtful accounts is the contra account to accounts receiveable when all the bad debts need to be accounted for. The bad debts reduces the accounts receivable line but all bad debts are actually deducted from the allowance for doubtful accounts.

The allowance for doubtful accounts for that year is calculated as 5% of the accounts receivable balance. This amounts to $8000 (160000 x 5%) before bad debts have been accounted for. Allowance for doubtful accounts moves in the opposite direction as accounts receivable because it is a contra account to this line item. At the end of the year before year end closing entries are done, and after the bad debts have been accounted for, the balance on the allowance for doubtful accounts is $5000.

This means that bad debts for that year is:

8000 (balance before bad debts have been accounted for)

- 5000 (balance after bad debts have been accounted for)

= $3000.

MArishka [77]

Answer:

b.9%

Explanation:

Formula for annual rate of return formula is as follows;

Annual rate of return = [ (New value/ Initial value)^(1/t) ] -1

t = the total holding period of investment = 12 years

Old value = 22,000

New value = 62,000

Next, plug in the numbers to the formula;

Annual rate of return; r = [ (62,000/22,000) ^(1/12) ] -1

r = [2.8182 ^(1/12)] - 1

r = 1.0902 -1

r = 0.0902 or 9%
