Answer:
B. Controllable costs
Explanation:
There are some costs that are expended by a company during the cost of carrying out their business operations. These costs such as labor costs and marketing budgets are incurred because the company has full authority over them. They are costs that can be altered in short term based on a business decision.
In other words, controllable costs are those costs or expenses that can be influenced by those who are saddled with the responsibilities of incurring them.
Answer:
$250 ( C )
Explanation:
using the given data below is the entry
The adjusting entry to recognize bad debts will include a debit to bad debt expense for
<h3>
particulars amount</h3>
Beginning accounts receivable 14000
+ Credit sales made during the year 172000
(-) collections from debtors (170000)
(-) expected salary return & allowances for credit sales (2000)
Ending accounts receivable 14000
Percentage of bad debt 1.5%
Total bad debts balance required ( 14000*1.5%) 210
+ Already debit balance in allowance for doubtful account 40
Total debit to be made in bad debts 250
Total debts = total bad debts balance required + already debit balance in all
= 210 + 40 = $250
Answer:
a) $200,000 to Jack
Explanation:
Data provided in the question
Life insurance policy amount of Marilyn Simms = $200,000
The primary beneficiary = Jack
The contingent beneficiaries = Their children
Now, the distribution of the policy could be taken by only Jack as he is her husband plus he is also a primary benefit of her life insurance policy,
So, the whole amount i.e $200,000 is distributed to Jack
Answer:
The first journal entry was not the most appropriate, but since the mistake was correctly adjusted at the end of the year, both assets and expenses will be the same whether they did it correctly the first time or they had to adjust a mistake at the end of the year.
E.g. something like this happened
October 1, rent expense for 1 year
Dr Rent expense 12,000
Cr Cash 12,000
December 31, adjustment to rent expense
Dr Prepaid rent 10,000
Cr Rent expense 10,000
they should have recorded it as:
October 1, prepaid rent for 1 year
Dr Prepaid rent 12,000
Cr Cash 12,000
December 31, adjustment to rent expense
Dr Rent expense 2,000
Cr Prepaid rent 2,000
Whichever way you recorded the transactions, the balances a the end of the year would be:
prepaid rent (asset) $10,000
rent expense (expense) $2,000
Answer:
Option D is the correct option
Explanation:
To find the optimal fund to combine with risk free rate of return, we will use Coefficient of variation,
Coefficient of variation(CoV) = Standard Deviation/Expected Return
CoV of Buckeye = 14%/20% = 0.7
CoV of Wolverine = 11%/12% = 0.9167
So, higher the CoV higher the risk, we will take Buckeye to combine with Risk Free Return.
Hence, Option A
- Required target return of portfolio = 22%
Risk Free return = 8%
Buckeye Return = 20%
Let the weight of Buckeye be X ,& weight of risk free be (1-X)
Required return = (WRF)*(RRF) + (WB)*(RB)
22 = (1-X)(8) + (X)(20)
22 = 8-8X + 20X
14 = 12X
X = 1.17
SO, weight of Buckeye is 1.17 or 117%
while weight of Risk free is -0.17 (1-1.17) or -17%
Hence, ans is OPTION D
