Answer: The following journal entries apply:

a) Debit Bad debt expense                                    $32,727.6  

  Credit Allowance for doubtful accounts            $32,727.6

b) Debit Bad debt expense                                    $37,017.6  

  Credit Allowance for doubtful accounts            $37,017.6

Explanation: All the sales revenue are on credit to the tune of $806,700, however, there was sales return and allowance of $51,060, which has to be deducted from credit sales to arrive at the net credit sales of $755,640. This amount would be added to the accounts receivable of $132,800 to arrive at the total accounts receivable of $888,440.

a) 4% of $888,440 is $35,537.6. With credit balance of $2,810 in allowance for doubtful accounts, bad debt expense (addition) is $32,727.6  ($35,537.6 - $2,810).

b) 4% of $888,440 is $35,537.6 and there is a debit balance of $1,480 in allowance for doubtful accounts, bad debt expense (to reinstate allowance account to $35,537.6) is $37,017.6 ($35,537.6 + $1,480).

The computation of the break-even point (in units) is given below:

Break-eventpoint = Fixed cost / contribution margin.

= Fixed cost / (selling price -  variable cost)

= $158,000/ ($20-%10)

= $158,000/ $10

= %15,800 units.

The break-even point (in units) for Shop 48 is 15,800 units. It can be computed by dividing the amount of fixed cost by the amount of per unit contribution margin. And the per unit contribution margin can be computed by deducting the variable cost per unit from the selling price per unit.

The break-even point is the point at which total costs equal total sales, and there is no loss or profit for a small business.

Sally is planning to sell her company and she prefers to obtain immediate liquidity, and the value of consideration to be fixed.
ella [17]

Answer: A cash sale

                                           

Explanation: In simple words, liquidity refers to the ability of an organisation to bear its short term expenses. For that a company must have cash or some assets that can be readily converted into cash in case of need.

Hence Sally should sell her company in cash sale as it will result in inflow of cash which will create liquidity and also the consideration will be certain with short timely payments.

Other option such as IPO or  stock for stock might result in increase in value but certainly won't give her liquidity.

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

B. at the highest independent bid or the last reported sale price, whichever is higher

Explanation:

SEC Rule 10b-18 was issued to create a safe harbor that reduces a company's possible legal liabilities related to repurchasing their own stock. Companies can decide to follow it or not, but if they follow it, they must comply with specific requirements that depend on the company's size and trading activities. Even if companies follow all the requirements of this "safe harbor", all legal liabilities are not eliminated, instead some specific provisions will not be considered to have been violated by the company.

The conditions related to this rule  include

  • Manner of purchase conditions
  • Timing conditions
  • Price conditions
  • Volume conditions

Snowcat [4.5K]

which system tax collection system supports the idea that some states are more valuable than others is the Articles of Confederation says that its value will be estimated based on land, people, and improvements

Taxes can be defined as mandatory levies from the people for the state. Every penny of tax money paid by the people will be included in the post of state income from the tax sector. Its use is to finance central and local government spending for the welfare of the community.

Taxes are very beneficial for the state. In full, taxes are widely used for:

  • Financing state expenditures, such as: self-liquidating expenditures, for example: expenditures for productive projects for export goods.
  • Financing reproductive expenditures, such as: expenditures that provide economic benefits for the community, for example: expenditures for irrigation and agriculture.
  • Financing expenses that are not self-liquidating and non-reproductive, for example: expenses for the construction of monuments and recreational objects.
  • Financing unproductive expenses, for example: expenditures to finance national defense or war and expenditures for future savings, namely expenditures for orphans.
