Answer:

See explanation section.

Explanation:

December 31, 2017

Bad debt expense                        Debit      = $17,600

Allowance for Doubtful Account Credit     =  $17,600

To record the bad debt expense

Calculation: Bad debt expense = $250,000 × 8% = $20,000. However, we cannot take this amount because Allowance for Doubtful Account is a positive contra entry, which has a $2,400 credit balance. Therefore, we have to deduct $2,400 from $20,000 to get the actual bad debt expense.

andre [41]

Answer:

Option D, Final goods, and services produced in the United States.

Explanation:

Option D is correct because the gross national product is the value of all goods and services produced in the domestic boundary of a nation during the accounting year and all the net factor income from abroad. Since there is a lack of information regarding the net factor income from abroad in the question, so just consider the value of final goods and services produced in the domestic territory that will be part of GNP.
