Answer:
Contractionary Fiscal Policy is the correct answer.
Explanation:
It is a fiscal policy that includes increasing taxes and decreasing the expenditure to curb inflationary pressures. As the taxes are increased, households have less income to spend and the lower disposable income affects consumption. Tax increments also lead to less profit for businesses. GDP includes the consumption and private investment hence both of them fall as a result. The government tries to magnify the fall in GDP with the multiplier effect.
If the government decreases the expenditures then it would lead to a decrease in GDP, as the government expenditures are a part of GDP.

Answer:
- Dr Bad Debt expense 6,000
- Cr Allowance for Doubtful Accounts account 6,000
Explanation:
The total estimated bad debts are $4,800 (= $80,000 x 6%). So the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts account ending balance should be $4,800. Since this account is a contra asset account, the ending balance should be $4,800 credited.
But currently the account has a $1,200 debit balance (it's like -$1,200), so the adjustment record must be = $4,800 + $1,200 = $6,000
That way the ending balance = $6,000 - $1,200 = $4,800
The journal entries should be:
- Dr Bad Debt expense 6,000
- Cr Allowance for Doubtful Accounts account 6,000
