Answer:
The balance of allowance for doubtful accounts is $ 1,880
Explanation:
Computation of balance in Allowance for Bad Debts
Total credit sales $ 47 comma 000
Estimated bad debts as a % of sales 4 %
Balance of Allowance for Doubtful accounts $ 1,880
The balance is based on a % to credit sales basis. The bad debts expense for the year considers the balance in the allowance for doubtful accounts and the accounting entry is an adjustment amount.
Answer:
A. That's the point where total revenue is maximized
Explanation:
Demand Curve is a downward sloping curve representing inverse relationship between price & quantity demanded.
Elasticity of Demand is the responsiveness of quantity demanded to price change. It can be measured geometrically on a demand curve point by :
Demand curve segment below the point / Demand curve segment above the point.
This way the elasticity keeps on decreasing as we move downwards on the demand curve [Ed=∞ to Ed >1 to Ed = 1 to Ed < 1 to Ed = 0] i.e [from perfectly elastic to elastic to unitary elastic to inelastic to perfectly inelastic demand].
If Demand is Elastic [Ed >1] : There is negative relationship between price and Total Revenue. This point is on the upper segment of demand curve as per geometric method, P- TR negative relationship implies that TR can be increased by decreasing Price.
If Demand is Inelastic [Ed <1] : There is positive relationship between price &total revenue. This point is on the lower segment of demand curve as per geometric method, P-TR positive relationship implies that TR can be increased by increasing price.
So: The best Total Revenue Maximising point is on the middle of demand curve where demand is unitary elastic [Ed=1] - as any other deviation from this point would create an incentive to change price to generate higher revenue.
The answer is marginal costs in both places are the same. This
is because the farmers in both places are profit-maximizers, the value in each flat
is equal to MC or Marginal Cost and subsequently the market of corn is competitive,
the price of corn in both places is the same. Also, marginal costs are higher
in East Icicle than in Corncrib can also be a possible answer. For any given outflow
per acre Corncrib’s corn yield are far better than in East Icicle, at any level
of output, the marginal cost per acre in East Icicle must be higher in
Corncrib, which suggests that in equilibrium the output level of corn in East
Icicle is less than the output level of corn in Corncrib.
