Answer:
Explanation:
As the only operator of this kind in South Africa, the Post Office has the exclusive right to provide delivery services for all letters, postcards, printed matter, small parcels, and other postal articles up to and including 1kg.
PostNet was initially ordered to stop delivering all packages weighing 1kg and less by 17 March 2020. However, it secured an interdict which allowed it to continue to deliver these packages until the full challenge was heard in the Gauteng High Court.
The Post Office, Postnet and the South African Express Parcel Association (SAEPA) are now set to head to court in a move that could have ramifications for the entire courier industry in South Africa.
Icasa spokesperson Paseka Maleka told BusinessDay that the regulator would give its support to the Post Office as it was following the letter of the law, which allowed private couriers to only deliver food items in the 1kg or less category.
“Icasa’s mandate is to implement what the law requires, and we are doing exactly that,” he said.
“There are exemptions that deal with businesses that do not fall under postal services. Uber Eats, Mr Delivery, etc are such businesses. Obviously, one cannot expect Sapo to be delivering pizza to a consumer,” he said.
Answer:
Adjusting journal entries
a) 1 . Debit Depreciation $10500 Credit Accumulated depreciation $10500.
2 . Debit interest expense $40 , Credit Bank $40
3 . Debit Admission revenue $ 60000, Credit Unearned admission revenue $60000
4. Debit Prepaid expense $1100 , Credit Advertising expense $1100
5. Debit salary $4700, Credit Salary payable ( accrued salary) $4700
Explanation:
Depreciation = (cost - salvage value)/ useful life
it is said that the equipment has a useful life of 16 years at that date (31 Dec) and depreciation needs to be adjusted for the year. Even even that $192000 is Carrying amount it is not depreciable amount we still need to subtract the salvage value hence (192000- 24000)/16 = $10500 Depreciation
interest expense = 90000*8%*72/360 = $1440
The 72 days numerator is arrived at by adding the remaining 11 days in Oct plus full 30 days Nov plus full 31 days Dec. $1400 of interest has already been recorded so in adjusting to the total of $1440 we need to record $40 of interest.
december coupon = 2000*$30 =$60000
if the coupon admission book revenue for december is not included in the trial balance then its journal entry is debit bank $60000 credit unearned revenue $60000

Answer:
Explanation:
1/3rd of the guests are leisure travelers
2/3rd of the guests are business travelers
Average leisure travelers stay for 3.6 nights
Average business travelers stay for 3.6*1/2 = 1.8
a)
It is given that on average day 135 guests check into The Evanstonian (R)
Leisure travelers = 135*1/3=45 guests per day(night)
Average number of leisure travelers = 45*3.6 = 162 guests
Business travelers = 135*2/3 = 90 guests per night
Average number of business travelers = 90*1.8 = 162 guests
b)
Total inventory = Leisure travelers + Business travelers = 162*2 = 324
Inventory turns = R/total inventory = 135/324 = 0.4167 turns per day
per month: 0.4167 * 30 = 12.5 turns
c)
324 rooms are booked for a night on average
We calculated that half of them are booked by leisure and half by business travelers
Therefore, average revenue is 1/2*250 + 1/2* 210 = 125 + 105 = $230
