A​ person's website specializes in the sale of rare or unusual vegetable seeds. He sells packets of​ sweet-pepper seeds for ​$2.
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

7 packets of  sweet-pepper seeds and 9 packet of hot-pepper seeds.

Explanation:

Let x packets of​ sweet-pepper seeds for ​$2.16 each and y packets of​ hot-pepper seeds for ​$4.24 each are mixed to obtain 16​-packet mixed pepper assortment for ​$3.33 per packet,

i.e. x + y = 16       ..........(1)

Also,

The price of sweet-pepper seeds + price of hot pepper seeds = price of the mixture

⇒ 2.16x + 4.24y = 3.33(x+y)

⇒ 2.16x + 4.24y = 3.33x+3.33y

⇒ 2.16x + 4.24y - 3.33x-3.33y = 0

⇒ −1.17x +0.91y = 0  ........(2)

Equation (2) + 1.17 × equation (1)

0.91y + 1.17y = 18.72

2.08y = 18.72

⇒ y = 9

From equation (1),

x + 9 = 16 ⇒ x = 16 - 9 ⇒ x = 7

Hence, there are 7 packets of  sweet-pepper seeds and 9 packet of hot-pepper seeds.

At year-end (December 31), Chan Company estimates its bad debts as 0.70% of its annual credit sales of $862,000. Chan records it
KiRa [710]

Answer: Please see the required journals below:

December 31:

Debit Bad debt expense                                $6,034

Credit Allowance for doubtful accounts       $6,034

February 1:

Debit Allowance for doubtful accounts              $431

Credit Accounts receivables                               $431

June 5:

Debit Cash                                                            $431

Credit Bad debt recovery (income statement)   $431

Explanation: The company estimates its bad debt expense as percentage of sales. In this case 0.7% of its annual sales of $862,000 was deemed as uncollectible, that is, 0.7% x $862,000 = $6,034. The required journals to recognize this bad debt expense is provided above. However, since there was an existing provision, which resides in the allowance account, a write-off would definitely hit that account in order to extinguish the accounts receivable portion. Upon recovery of the write-off, we cannot reinstate the receivable since it was already extinguished but we need to recognize the recovery as a gain.
