Castle Company provides estimates for its uncollectible accounts. The allowance for uncollectible accounts had a credit balance

of $18,080 at the beginning of 2021 and a $24,010 credit balance at the end of 2021 (after adjusting entries). If the direct write-off method had been used to account for uncollectible accounts (bad debt expense equals actual write-offs), the income statement for 2021 would have included bad debt expense of $18,700 and revenue of $3,800 from the collection of previously written off bad debts. Required: Determine bad debt expense for 2021 according to the allowance method.

Answer:

Bad debt expense for 2021 according to the allowance method is $20,830

Explanation:

We know that,

Ending balance of Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts = Beginning balance of Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts + 2021 bad debts + write off amount - collection made

$24,010 = $18,080 + 2021 bad debts + $3,800 - $18,700

$24,010 = $3,180  + 2021 bad debts

So, the 2021 bad debts is $24,010 - $3,180 = $20,830

We considered all the items for the calculation which is given in the question

kumpel [21]

Answer:

Yes we should go with this project because it has a positive NPV of $4,350

Explanation:

We need to calculate the net present value of the machine to decide whether to invest in the machine or not.

As per Given Data

Costs $270,000

Cash Inflows

Year 2      $100,000

Year 3      $150,000

Year 4      $75,000

Interest Rate = 6%

Net Present Value

As we know Net Present value is calculated by discounting each years cash flows using using the Weighted Average cost of Capital.

Year       Cash Inflows    Discount factor 13%  Present values

Year 0      $(270,000)     (1+6%)^-0                 $(270,000)

Year 2      $100,000        (1+6%)^-2                 $89,000

Year 3      $150,000        (1+6%)^-3                 $125,943

Year 4      $75,000          (1+6%)^-4                 <u>$59,407  </u>

Net present value                                            <u>$4,350   </u>
