On February 1, a customer's account balance of $2,700 was deemed to be uncollectible. What entry should be recorded on February
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

On February 1, a customer's account balance of $2,700 was deemed to be uncollectible.

The entry to be recorded on February 1 to record the write-off assuming the company uses the allowance method is:

Debit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $2,700; credit Accounts Receivable $2,700.

Explanation:

Using the allowance method, every bad debt entry is first reflected in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts before it is taken to the bad debt expense account.

The entries above reduce the Accounts Receivable account by the amount of the write-off and reduces the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts by the same amount.  Any recovery of written off debt is also treated in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and the Accounts Receivable account in revised order.  This method is unlike the direct write-off method.  With the direct write-off method, the Accounts Receivable is credited with the amount of the write-off and the write-off is expensed in the Bad Debts Expense account directly.

Answer:

no option is correct, check the question to see if it was copied correctly and check the work to verify my answer

$1,430

Explanation:

worst case scenario:

2,500 units sold at $16 = $40,000

variable cost per unit $14 x 2,500 units = $35,000

contribution margin = $5,000

fixed costs = $8,500

depreciation expense = $11,000

cash flow = [(contribution margin - fixed costs - depreciation) x (1 - tax rate)] + depreciation

cash flow = [($5,000 - $8,500 - $11,000) x 0.66] + $11,000 = $1,430

Terrell Trucking Company is in the process of setting its target capital structure. The CFO believes that the optimal debt-to-ca
Semenov [28]

Answer:

a. Terrell's Optimal Capital Structure is 40:60. It means to obtain optimal capital structure in-order to increase value of firm, Terrell should finance 40% of its Assets through Debt and remaining through Common Equity.

b. The optimal Capital Structure is the point where company's WACC is minimized. So, 40:60 is the ratio where Terrell's WACC will be minimized.

Explanation:

The goal of Management is to increase Shareholders' wealth and not to generate profits because wealth is something that is for long-run whereas Profits are temporary. Management would accept projects having negative NPV if its goal is to maximize Profit.

Maximizing Shareholders' wealth means to increase the Share Price whereas Generating a higher EPS is Profit Maximization Strategy. So, you should look for that Capital Structure Point where the Company's Stock Price is Highest.

Thanks!
