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.

Ashbury Corporation reports 2016 and 2017 total revenues of $90.0 million and $100.8 million respectively. If we expect prior gr
Harman [31]

Answer:

B. 12%

Explanation:

Revenue in 2016 = $ 90 million

Revenue in 2017 = $ 100.8 million

Growth during 2016-17 = 100.8 million - 90 million

                                      = $ 10.8 million

Same growth should persist for 2017 -18 which implies the gowth rate forecasted is same as growth rate during 2016-17.

Forecasted growth rate from 2017 to 18

= Growth rate during 2016-17

= (100.8 - 90)/90)

= 0.12

Therefore, we would forecast a revenue growth rate of 12%.
