IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

The correct answer is option b.

Explanation:

Shen is working in a country where the inflation rate is high.  

He gets a salary every two weeks.  

After receiving his salary he immediately goes out and buys all the goods he is going to need over the next two weeks.  

He converts the remaining salary in a more stable currency.  

He does this in order to prevent his salary from losing purchasing power.  

This effort that he is making to prevent his real income from losing value is called the shoe-leather cost of inflation.  

The shoe-leather cost can be defined as the cost of time and effort made to prevent the cash holdings from losing their value.

On August 10,2019 ABC sells 16 mini trenchers to a farm co-op in western Minnesota. ABC provides a 4% volume discount on the min
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

If it was likely or probable that the farm co-op would meet the benchmark and get the discount (or rebate), then the journal entry should recognize that. But since it is very doubtful that the benchmark will be met, then the journal entry should be made without considering any type of discount.  

I looked for a similar question in order to find the missing numbers:

each trencher is sold at $3,600 and costs $2,000

August 10, 2019, 16 mini trenchers sold to farm co-op

Dr Accounts receivable 57,600

    Cr Sales revenue 57,600
