Answer:

D) represents the discount lost when a customer does not pay within the discount period

Explanation:

When a business uses the net method for accounting sales and purchases, they include all the possible discounts in the sales or purchases that they make. E.g. a store that sells $1,000 in merchandise and offers a 3% discount within 10 days (3/10, n/30) will record accounts receivable and sales revenue at $9,700 since it expects its customers to pay within the discount period.

Dr Accounts receivable 9,700

    Cr Sales revenue 9,700

But if the customers do not pay within the discount period, accounts receivables and sales revenue must be adjusted. The sales discounts forfeited account should be used to adjust both accounts by increasing sales revenue and at the same time debiting accounts receivable fro $300.

Dr Accounts receivable 300

    Cr Sales discounts forfeited 300

The amount of amount of deadweight loss as a result of the tax is:______
klio [65]

Answer:

D. $5,000

Explanation:

This deadweight in a lot of cases are seen to occur especially when demand and supply are not in equilibrium and in and in the above scenario, it is pegged at $5000. Therefore sometimes consumers experience shortages, and producers earn but they'd otherwise.

Taxes are also seen in the creation of deadweight loss because they prevent people from engaging in purchases they'd otherwise make because the ultimate price of the merchandise is above the equilibrium value. If taxes on an item rise, the burden is commonly split between the producer and therefore the consumer, resulting in the producer receiving less cash in on the item and therefore the customer paying the next price.
