Answer:

Since relevant revenue (115,92) is greater than relevant cost (60,260) the order should be accepted. By accepting the order the company will earn extra $60,375.92

Explanation:

Calculation of contribution to profit from special order:

Sales revenue =$2,520*46 slabs = 115,92

Cost of raw materials =$810*46 slabs = (37,260)

Cost of direct labor =$500*46 slabs =(23,000)

Total relevant cost = (37,260) + (23,000)

                                = (60,260)

contribution to profit = 115,92 - (60,260) = 60,375.92

Since relevant revenue (115,92) is greater than relevant cost (60,260) the order should be accepted. By accepting the order the company will earn extra $60,375.92

Credit: Sales Revenue $126,000

<em>To record sales on account, in terms of Gross method.</em>

Date: July 12

Debit: Bramble Corp. $82,000

Credit: Sales Revenue $82,000

<em>To record sales on account to Bramble Corp.</em>

Date: July 18

Debit: Cash $77,900

Debit: Discount Allowed $4,100

Credit: Bramble Corp. $82,000

<em>To record cash received from Bramble Corp. within 10 days so allowed discount of 5%.</em>

Date: July 20

Debit: Discount Allowed $2,700

Credit: Cullumber Company $2,700

<em>To record discount allowed to Cullumber Company</em>

<em />

Date: July 29

Debit: Cash $123,300

Credit: Cullumber Company $123,300

<em>To record Cash received from Cullumber Company</em>

Explanation:

July 1: 4/15, n/30 means that if the payment is made within 15 days then a discount of 4% will be given on sales amount otherwise whole payment needs to be made within 30 days. The Gross Method means that whatever amount is written on invoice will be journalized. So the allowance of $1,500 will not be recorded in this journal entry as it is merely estimation and not really honored by vendor yet.

July 12: 5/10, n/60 means that if the payment is made within 10 days of purchase the buyer can avail 10% discount otherwise full payment in 60 days.

July 18: Since the payment is made within 10 days of purchase. Hence the 10% of discount would be given to Bramble Corp.

Discount Allowed = $82,000 x 5% = $4,100

July 20: Credit of $2,700 means that Cullumber will pay $2,700 less of the amount it owes to Marin.

July 29: Cullumber could have availed the discount if made the payment within 15 days as per terms but as made within 30 days so have to make the full payment. Except that of Discount allowed in terms of compensation due to wrong color provided by Marin of $2,700.

July 31: Since the Marin expectations have not been realized yet so no entry required at this time.

Classify each of the following based on the macroeconomic definitions of saving and investment.
Serga [27]

Answer and explanation:

Saving implies setting an amount of money of your income aside and put it into a bank account or store it somewhere considered safe. If deposited in a bank the money gains interest, thus, there will be a relative increase in the initial sum deposited.

Investing implies providing money to a third party or using that money personally to start up a venture. In such cases, there is a risk that the investment could be lost.

Thus:

A) Ginny buys new bulldozers for her construction firm.  (<em>Investment</em>)

B) Eric purchases a certificate of deposit at his bank.  (<em>Saving</em>)

C) Kenji takes out a mortgage for a new home in Detroit. (<em>Investment</em>)

D) Lucia purchases stock in Pherk, a pharmaceutical company. (<em>Saving</em>)
