Answer:

Original cost of the stock = $23.16

marta [7]

Answer:

By using the percentage-of-completion method the $64 million revenue should Parmac recognize in 2018

Explanation:

Percentage-of-completion method : Under this method,

First we have to calculate the percentage which is based on current period cost to total period cost.

After that, multiply the percentage with the revenue so that we get to know how much revenue is being recognized during an particular year.

In mathematically,

Estimated Cost percentage =  current period cost ÷ total period cost

                                              = $48 million ÷ $120 million

                                              = 40%

Now,

Revenue recognized = Estimated cost percentage × Revenue

                                   = 40% × $160 million

                                   = $64 million

Hence, by using the percentage-of-completion method the $64 million revenue should Parmac recognize in 2018

July 19

Cash                            $792

Discount expense      $8

Account Receivable              $800

Explanation:

The term 1/15, n/30 mean there is a discount of 1% is available on the sales value, if payment is made within 15 days of sale with credit term of 30 days.

The sale of $900 was made on July 10 and discount period is until July 25.

On July 12 goods amounting $100 was returned and now the amount due from the customer is $800 ( $900 - $100 ).

The payment made on July 19 is actually in the discount period and it is eligible for the discount as it is made before July 25.

Discount = Amount due x Discount rate

Discount = $800 x 1% = $8

$792 Cash received against the sale made on July 10 and discount $8 is expensed. Total of $800 is credited from the account receivable account to eliminate it.
