Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
1. Calculate the first year's net earnings under the cash basis of accounting, and the first year's net earnings under the accrual basis of accounting.
The first year's net earnings under the cash basis of accounting will be:
Service revenue = $23400
Less: Expenses = $14310
Net income = $9090
The first year's net earnings under the accrual basis of accounting will be:
Service revenue = $29500
Less: Expenses = $15500
Net income = $14000
2. Which basis of accounting (cash or accrual) provides more useful information for decision-makers?
It should be noted that the accrual basis of accounting gives decision makers more useful information. This is due to the fact that the decision makers will probably want to know the revenue and the expenses that were incurred for a particular period and every other necessary details.
Answer:
$870
Explanation:
When a company makes sales on account, debit accounts receivable and credit sales. Based on assessment, some or all of the receivables may be uncollectible.
To account for this, debit bad debit expense and credit allowance for doubtful debt. Should the debt become uncollectible (i.e go bad), debit allowance for doubtful debt and credit accounts receivable.
Allowance for uncollectible accounts at 5%
= 5% * $302,000
= $1,510
Since the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts was $640 (credit) before any adjustments, the bad debt expense for the year
= $1,510 - $640
= $870
Answer:
(a) $40
(b) $24,000
(c) 40%
Explanation:
Given that,
Selling price = $100 per unit
Variable costs = $60 per unit
Fixed costs = $2,500 per month
Contribution margin per unit:
= Selling price - Variable costs
= $100 per unit - $60 per unit
= $40
Total Contribution margin:
= Contribution margin per unit × No. of units sold
= $40 × 600 units
= $24,000
Contribution margin ratio:
= (Selling price - Variable costs) ÷ Selling price
= ($100 per unit - $60 per unit) ÷ $100 per unit
= 0.4 or 40 %
Answer:
a. Wholesale division.
Explanation:
The formula to compute for return on investment is shown below:
Return on investment = Operating Income ÷ Operating Assets
For Retail Division, it would be
= $2,500,000 ÷ $16,000,0000
= 15.625%
For Wholesale Division, it would be
= $6,000,000 ÷ $36,000,0000
= 16.67%
Based on the calculation, the wholesale division perform better
Answer:
C) It is a vertical line at $600 billion of GDP
Explanation:
Aggregate supply is the total value of goods and services that companies established in a country are willing to produce and sell for each price level over a given period of time. It is therefore the sum of the supply curves of each firm.
Potential GDP, in turn, is the value of all final goods and services produced by an economy over a given period of time when all factors of production (capital and labor) are being tapped. It is the maximum production point of an economy. In this example, the potential GDP is 600 billion.
In the long run, an increase in the general price level does not affect aggregate production. Thus the aggregate supply curve of an economy represents the sum of all supply in a situation in which all factors of production are employed. This makes the vertical aggregate supply curve at 600 billion.
