Answer:

$4,900 (From simple interest method)

Explanation:

Given:

Amount invested (p) = $4,000

Interest rate for simple interest (r) = 4.5% = 4.5/100 = 0.045

Interest rate for Compound interest (i) = 4%

Number of year (t) = 5

Computation of amount from simple interest method:

Amount = p(1+rt)

Amount = $4,000[1+(0.045 × 5)]

Amount = $4,000[1+0.225]

Amount = $4,000[1.225]

Amount (from simple interest method) = $4,900

Computation of amount from compound interest method:

Amount = p(1+i)^t\\\\Amount = 4,000(1+0.04)^5\\\\Amount = 4,000(1.04)^5\\\\Amount = 4,000(1.2166529)\\\\Amount = 4,866.616\\\\

Therefore, Amount from simple interest method is higher .

Wallen Corporation is considering eliminating a department that has an annual contribution margin of $80,000 and $160,000 in ann
krok68 [10]

Answer:

$10,000

Explanation:

We need to find the segment margin of the deparment, which is equal to annual contribution margin minus avoidable fixed costs:

Wallen Corporation

Annual contribution margin            $80,000

Annual fixed costs                           $160,000

Unavoidable fixed costs                 $90,000

Avoidable fixed costs                     $70,000

Segment Margin  = Annual contribution margin - avoidable fixed costs

                             = $80,000 - $70,000

                             = $10,000

Therefore, if the company eliminated this department, it would have a financial advantage of $10,000, equivalent to the deparment's current segment margin.

Phoenix Agency leases office space for $7,700 per month. On January 3, Phoenix incurs $105,600 to improve the leased office spac
nadezda [96]

Answer:

$13,200 per year

Explanation:

Amount incurred to improve the office space = $

Improvement expected to yield benefit = 10 years

Remaining life on it's lease = 8 years

Since the office space is not going to remain with Phoenix after the lease period, it means that the improvement expenses will be expensed over the remaining lease period I.e 8 years.

Therefore, the amount of expense that should be recorded the first year related to improvements can be calculated as;

= Amount incurred to improve the office space ÷ remaining life on its lease

= $105,600 ÷ 8

= $13,200 per year

Assume Shamrock estimates bad debts based on 5% of the Accounts Receivables ending balance (as of Dec. 31, 20x2). Determine Bad
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Bad Debt Expense for 20x2 is $50,245

Explanation:

Note: The full question is attached as picture below

Ending balance = Beginning balance + Sales on account or credit sales - Cash collected - Uncollected accounts

Beginning balance of Accounts receivable (given) = $850000

Credit sales in 20X2 = 80% * $3125000 = $2500000

Cash collections (given) = $2400000

Uncollectible accounts (given) = $52100

Ending balance = $850000 + $2500000 - $2400000 - $52100 = $897900

Allowance required to be made for 20X2 = 5% of Accounts receivables ending balance on 20X2  = 5% * $897900 = $44895

First we will write off uncollectible accounts of $52100 from the beginning balance of allowance for uncollectible accounts. (Beginning balance of allowance for doubtful accounts = $46750 ).

Difference = Beginning balance of allowance account - Uncollectible accounts = $46750 - $52100 = - $5350

It means that there is a shortfall of $5350 in the allowance for doubtful accounts. And, also a total of $44895 should be there in the credit of Allowance for doubtful accounts at the end of 20X2.  Allowance needed in 20X2 = $44895 + $5350 = $50,245 . So, the Bad debt expense for 20X2 is $50,245.
