Answer:

$230,400

Explanation:

The computation of the ending retained earning balance is shown below:

The ending balance of retained earning = Opening balance of retained earnings + net income - net loss - cash dividend paid

= $294000 - $27,600 - $36,000

= $230,400

We simply deduct the net income and the dividend from the beginning balance of retained earning so that the correct balance could come.

Our company has an account receivable for $12,500 that we have now deemed uncollectible. We use the direct write-off method. Whi
ryzh [129]

Answer: a. Accounts Receivable

Explanation:

The Direct Write-off method is usually used by businesses where Uncollectible Receivables are not common. This way when it does occur, they simply debit the Bad Debts accounts and credit the Accounts Receivables to show the event.

This method of Accounting violates the Matching Principle under the Accrual basis because it usually does not recognize bad debts in the same period that the inventory was sold. It only records bad debts when they are declared which could be periods afterwards.
