Answer:

The adjustment Brinkley records for Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts using the percentage-of-credit-sales method:

Debit Bad debts expense $6,500

Credit Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts $6,500

Explanation:

Brinkley Incorporated’ uses the percentage-of-credit-sales method - application a flat percentage to the total amount of net credit sales for the period to  estimate uncollectible.

Estimated uncollectible = 5% x $130,000 = $6,500

The company records an Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts for $6,500 while simultaneously reporting $6,500 in bad debts expense. The  adjustment entry:

Debit Bad debts expense $6,500

Credit Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts $6,500

The balance in the  Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts after adjustment is $6,500 + $3,500 = $10,000

Dome Metals has credit sales of $270,000 yearly with credit terms of net 90 days, which is also the average collection period. A
bixtya [17]

Answer:

Net change in income = $8,100

Explanation:

Given:

Current credit sales= $270,000 per year.

Average collection period= 90 days

A 2/15, net 90 means a 20℅ discount if payment is made within 15 days.

Which means new credit terms increase will be

(90/15) * 20℅ = 120℅

We now find the following:

•Revised sales will be = (current sales * new credit terms increase)

= $270,000 * 120℅ = $324,000

•Increase in sales = ( new sales - current sales)

=$324,000 - $270,000 = $54,000

•Profit increase = (profit percent * Increase in sales)

= 15℅ * $54,000 = $8,100

• Average receivable under existing policy =

= $270,000 * (90/360) = $67,500

• Average under new policy =

$325,000 * (15/360) = $13,500

• Receivable reduction= $67,500 - $13,500 = $54,000

• Interest savings

= $54,000 * 12℅ = $6,480

• Cost of discount =

$324,000 * 2℅ = $6,480

Therefore the net change in income if new credit terms are adopted will be = (increase in profit + interest savings - cost of discount)

= $8,100+$6,480-$6,480

= $8,100
