<span>Service marketing is more challenging because the organization must appeal to customers by offering something intangible. Though it is never a good idea to underestimate or oversimplify the customer, it is my experience that customers are far more driven to exchange money for something tangible. In addition, services are traditionally seen as expensive, inconvenient, and often ill-timed. Some good examples are car repairs, extermination, etc.</span>

It is more challenging for an organization to build something that offers services rather than products because of the satisfaction of customers being different when services are got instead of products. In other cases, customers most often preferred to do task themselves rather than allowing other organization do it for them. With this, it is more challenging for the organization to locate a strategic position for the business.

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

What amount would the company report as its net accounts receivable on December 31, 2017?

Accounts Receivable $873,000

Prepare the journal entry to write off the accounts on January 2, 2018.

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts $ 26,000

Accounts Receivable $ 26,000

Assuming no other transactions occurred between December 31, 2017, and January 3, 2018, what amount would the company report as its net accounts receivable on January 3, 2018?

The same amount reported on December 31, 2017, if the company doesn't report any movement with the credit debtor there is nothing to do.

Has net accounts receivable changed from December 31, 2017?

The net accounts are the same there is not change in the balance because the write-off it's just a reclassification between the accounts, so the balance keep the same as before.

Explanation:

Accounts Receivable $873,000

The company reports as net accounts receivable the total amount on Accounts Receivable minus the total amount on the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts which represent the amount of credit that won't be possible to collect, the result it's the total value on net accounts receivable.

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts $ 26,000

Accounts Receivable $ 26,000

As the company just recognized the accounts not collectible, at the moment of the write off it's just a reclasification between the accounts of Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts and Accounts Receivable.

At this moment it's a certainly that the accounts won't be collected, that is why the entry is recorded.

IRR can be calculated with a financial calculator

Flying Car

Cash flow in year 0 = -$200,000

Cash flow in year 1 = 50,000

Cash flow in year 2 = 50,000

Cash flow in year 3 =80,000

Cash flow in year 4 =100,000

IRR = 13%

To find the IRR using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button and then press the compute button.

If the market risk premium increased to 6%, what would happen to the stock's required rate of return

Inessa [10]

Answer:

13%

Explanation:

As per the situation the solution of required rate of return first we need to find out the beta which is shown below:-

Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)

11% = 7% + Beta × 6%

Beta = 1

now If the market risk premium increased to 6% so,

The required rate of return = 7% + 1 × 6%

= 13%

Therefore for computing the required rate of return we simply applied the above formula.

Bartoletti Fabrication Corporation has a standard cost system in which it applies manufacturing overhead to products on the basi

vazorg [7]

Answer:

Total of the variable overhead rate and fixed manufacturing overhead budget variances for the month = $9,096 Unfavorable

Explanation:

Actual variable overhead rate = $\frac{Actual variable overhead}{Actual Hours}$ = $\frac{66,170}{6,400} = 10.34$

Therefore variance with the budgeted standard variable overhead

= (Standard Overhead rate - Actual overhead rate) $\times$ Actual Hours

= ($9.70 - $10.34) $\times$ 6,400 = -$4,096

And Fixed Overhead variance = Standard Fixed Overhead - Actual Fixed Overhead = $69,000 - $74,000 = -$5,000

Total of the variable overhead rate and fixed manufacturing overhead budget variances for the month = -$4,096 + -$5,000 = -$9,096

Since the value of variance is negative it means the expense both variable and fixed are over absorbed, which means it is unfavorable.

Total of the variable overhead rate and fixed manufacturing overhead budget variances for the month = $9,096 Unfavorable
