Answer:

Explanation: from the above question, the inability of management to collect any outstanding debt from a customer after a particular time frame is termed a bad debt and it can be written off the books of the company.

From the question above, management determined that it will not be able to collect the $1,200 owed to it by one of its customers.

To write this amount off the books,

Debit : Account receivable $1,200

Credit: bad debit written off $1,200

The bad debt written off is an expense account where the amount uncollectible is expensed from the books of the company.

The units of an item available for sale during the year were as follows: Jan. 1 Inventory 40 units at $165 $6,600 Aug. 13 Purcha
Volgvan

Answer:

a. FIFO - Inventory Used: $39900  Remaining Inventory: $14700

b. LIFO - Inventory Used: $41700 Remaining Inventory: $12900

c. Weighted Average Cost - Inventory Used: $40950 Remaining Inventory: $13650

Explanation:

Jan 01. Beginning inventory = 40 x $165 = $6600

Aug 13. Purchases 200 x $180 = $36000

Nov 30. Purchases 60 x $200 = $12000

Ending inventory = 75 units

Inventory Used = 300 – 75 = 225

(a) First-In-First-Out (FIFO)

This is the method where the inventory first received is the one that is used first. Common method when the inventory is perishable and would be wasted if left too long.

Inventory Used:

40 x $165 = $6600

185 x $180 = $33300

Total = $39900

Remaining Inventory:

15 x $180 = $2700

60 x $200 = $12000

Total = $14700

(b) Last-In-First-Out

Method whereby the inventory received latest is used first. Common in goods that are bulky. the inventory on top (latest purchased) is used first.

Inventory Used:

60 x $200 = $12000

165 x $180 = $29700

Total = $41700

Remaining Inventory:

40 x $165 = $6600

35 x $180 = $6300

Total = $12900

(c) Weighted Average Cost

This is whereby you divide the cost of goods sold by the number of units available for sale.

54,600 / 300 = $182

Inventory Used: 225 x $182 = $40950

Remaining inventory = 75 x $182 = $13650

When activity-based costing is used to apply overhead to products, support department costs are referred to as Group of answer c
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

Activity-based department costs

Explanation:

Activity Based Costing refers to a method : that allocates the cost of activities in organisation among produced goods & services, in proportion to that activity consumed by each good & service.

The model is  a better representative of particular goods & services production costs, unlike conventional cost methods - that divide the activity cost among each good or service equally. It assigns more indirect (overhead) costs into direct costs compared to Conventional Costing.

So, the approach states that overhead to products, supporting department costs - are referred to as <u>Activity Based</u> Department Costs

Prescott Bank offers you a five-year loan for $55,000 at an annual interest rate of 7.25 percent. What will your annual loan pay
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Annual loan payment = $13,146.78

Explanation:

<em>Loan Amortization: A loan repayment method structured such that a series of equal periodic installments will be paid for certain number of periods to offset both the loan principal amount and the accrued interest.</em>

The monthly equal installment is calculated as follows:  

Monthly equal installment= Loan amount/Monthly annuity factor  

Monthly annuity factor  

=( 1-(1+r)^(-n))/r  

r- Monthly interest rate (r)  

= 7.25%/12= 0.604 %  

n- Number of months ( n) in 5 years  

= 12* 6 = 60  

Annuity factor  

= ( 1- (1.00604)^(-60)/0.00604= 50.2024

Monthly installment= 55,000 /50.2024 = $1,095.56

 Monthly installment = $1,095.56

Annual loan payment = monthly installment × 12

Annual loan payment =$1,095.56 ×12=13,146.78

Annual loan payment = $13,146.78
