Answer:

  • B. The former program trustee argues that the current inflation measure overcompensates seniors since it ignores the substitution effect.
  • C. According to advocates for seniors, the 2020 COLA is not enough to compensate for rising healthcare costs.
  • D. Elizabeth Warren has proposed using a new inflation measure that outpaces the current one used.

Explanation:

The article is, ''<em>Social Security checks to rise modestly amid push to expand benefits '' </em>by<em> Associated Press. </em>

Blahous is a former program trustee who believes that the current inflation adjustment rate at which Social security is increasing is overcompensating seniors because it does not take into account that seniors could be switching to buying cheaper products which is the Substitution effect.  

Advocates and the seniors themselves have complained that the 2020 COLA is not enough to meet their current needs especially given the rising cost of healthcare.

Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders both proposed using a new measure for inflation that will adequately compensate the seniors because it outpaces the current one used.

The accounting records for Portland Products report the following manufacturing costs for the past year. Direct materials $ 390,
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

<u>First, we need to calculate the unitary costs:</u>

Direct materials= 390,000/180,000= $2.17

Direct labor= 261,000/180,000= $1.45

Variable overhead= 235,000/180,000= $1.31

<u>Now, we determine the new costs:</u>

Direct materials= 2.17*1.2= $2.604

Direct labor= 1.45*1.04= $1.508

Fixed overhead= 851,000*1.1= $936,100

<u>Total cost for 144,000 units:</u>

Total cost= 144,000*(2,604 + 1,508 + 1.31) + 936,100

Total cost= 144,000*5.422 + 936,100

Total cost= $1,716,868

<u>Finally, the unitary cos for both years:</u>

Last year= 2.17 + 1.45 + 1.31= $4.93

This year= $5.422

which of the following entries records the adjustment for revenue earned, but not yet collected? multiple choice debit accounts
Yanka [14]

various options Debit receivables from customers, credit sales. Accounts Receivable is debited and Sales Revenue is credited. Sales revenue is debited and deferred revenue is credit. Debit receivables and credit deferred revenue are the two balances.

<h3> What are debit and credit?</h3>

An accounting entry that decreases an asset or cost account is known as a debit. or reduces an equity or liability account. In an accounting entry, it is placed on the left. An accounting item known as a credit raises a liability or equity account's balance. or lowers an account for an asset or expense.

The money that is placed into your checking account is a credit to the bank even if it is a debit to you (an increase in your asset) because it is not their money. It is your money, and the bank owes it to you, so it is a liability on their books. A credit is an increase in a liability account.

Explain debit and credit with an example:

Debit what comes in, credit what leaves, first. Second, credit all gains and revenue while debiting all expenses. Thirdly, debit the sender and credit the recipient.

<h3>Can you credit revenue and debit accounts receivable?</h3>

An accounts receivable transaction in journal entry form debits accounts receivable and credits a revenue account. Credit accounts receivable (to eliminate the receivable) and debit cash (to show that you have been paid) when your customer pays their invoice.

Debit or Credit Account: As a business owner, your equity grows as a result of your revenue. Revenues must be reported as credits rather than debits because your equity typically has a credit balance.

Revenue from sales is it an accounts receivable?

When a business sells anything, it reports the revenue from the transaction on its income statement. They list the amount owed as accounts receivable on their balance sheet if the consumer hasn't yet paid them for the purchase. The amount indicated on the income statement is offset by accounts receivable.
