Answer:$19500

Explanation:

The provision for doubtful debts accounts is an account that shows the amount of estimated debts that are expected to go bad at the end of the year. The estimated amount at the end of a year is debited to income account, credited to debtors account and left as a credit balance on the provision for doubtful debts accounts.

If at the end of a new year a new estimate is made which differs from the current estimated figure, then the account is adjusted to show the entire new estimate and that is why the answer to the question is 3% of $650,000 = $19,500.

Answer:

I will:

b) Hold meetings with employees, volunteers, and representatives of other local shelters and listen carefully as they brainstorm ideas.

c) Honestly acknowledge the challenges the organization faces while also communicating optimism about finding the resources to fulfill your mission.

Explanation:

a) Withholding information about the organization's financial picture will not make employees to be loyal.  They are likely to find out the true position sooner than later.  If information is withheld and they find out later, they would never be loyal.  They would certainly leave the organization before financing is found for the organization sustenance.

b) Deceiving people by staying in the office and maintaining a "poker face" is not an option either.  "Poker face" cannot last forever.  One day, the true picture will show on the face.  Deception is not an art for business progress.
