Answer:

Explanation:

                                                Last year           Current year

Selling Price                      10                         10

Varaible Price                5                         6

Contribution Margin               5                               4

Break even is the point where total cost is equal to total revenue mean no profit and loss.

company earns the contribution margin after covering the variable cost, now only fix cost remains for break even.

Break Even using FIFO method :  first In first out system

Fix Cost                                                                            =     86000

contribution from opening units(6000*5)                            =     30000

Remaining Fix cost that should be Covered from

current year products                                                            =     56000

 

Units to be sold for break-even ( 56000/4)   = 14000

so we have break even units   6000+14000 = 20000

Fix cost                              = -86000

Opening 6000*5              = 30000

Current   14000*4             = 56000

Profit                                   = 0

Break Even using LIFO method : Last in first out

Fix Cost                                                                            =     86000

Break even =  Fix Cost / Contribution margin

Break even =  86000/4 =21500

current production is 24000 which is higher than break even units so we can cover the fix cost from current year production because company is using lifo method. we do not need opening units for the break even.

Answer:

Determine its bad debt expense for 2020. Bad debt expense for 20  

Cr Bad Debt Expense $ 524 - Credit, which means a profit in the income statement.

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts Balance

$ 4,380  - $524 = $ 3,856

Explanation:

December 31, 2020  

Dr Accounts receivable $ 48,200

Cr Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts $ 4,380

Net Credit Sales $ 1,253,200

Buffalo Company estimates its bad debt expense to be 8% of gross accounts receivable.

Determine its bad debt expense for 2020. Bad debt expense for 20  

Dr Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts $ 524

Cr Bad Debt Expense $ 524

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts Balance

$ 4,380  - $524 = $ 3,856

The allowance for uncollectible Accounts must reflect as balance the value estimated as bad debts, which is 8% of gross accounts receivable. $48,200*0,08 = $3,856

If the company applies the allowance method, it means that the account Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts must show as balance the % estimated of accounts receivables as CREDIT, if the company had balances that differ from that value then it must be adjusted to the new estimated value.

Bad accounts are those credits granted by the company and there is no possibility of being charged.

"When customers buy products on credits but the company cannot collect the debt, then it's necessary to cancel the unpaid invoice as uncollectible."

One way is to directly cancel bad debts at the time it was decided that the credit is bad, the total amount reported as bad debt expenses negatively affect the income statement and the accounts receivable are reduced by the same amount, less assets

The other way is to determine a percentage of the total amount of accounts receivable as bad debts, there are many ways to analyze accounts receivable and calculate the value of bad debts.

When the company has the percentage of uncollectible accounts, the required journal entry is Bad Expenses (debit) with Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (credit)

At the time of cancellation, since the expenses were recognized before, we only use the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (Debit)  with accounts receivable (credit), with this we are recognizing the bad credit of the company.

Answer:

Authority - Responsibility Balance & Incentive Development.

Explanation:

Authority refers to the power to command, give orders to somebody. And enjoying the position of having right to get it obeyed.

Responsibility refers to being in a position of accountability, answerability for an allocated task or job & its performance.

For Eg : A manager  given responsibility to complete a task of production targets achievement, is also given authority to command the entire staff at the production site.

Joe had problem while working for someone else that :- he had responsibility to complete employers allocated task, but may be not given enough authority to do so, thats why he felt he is being 'commanded by, working for' someone else. Also, he doesn't owe the rewards of his acts, so lacks incentive.

Being an entrepreneur will entitle him with managerial responsibilities, but at the same time will also give him higher authority to take his own independent decisions. And, he is himself responsible for his acts, will bear losses or enjoy profits for himself. So, it also incentivises him to work for himself.
