Answer:

A. The quantity demanded for bread will decrease , quantity supplied will increase

Explanation:

PRICE FLOOR is the minimum mandated price set by government , usually above equilibrium price , to ensure producers' protection (if market price is perceived to be low) . EG : Minimum Support Price for agricultural products to protect farmers .

However at this raised price : There is Excess Supply , as Quantity Supplied increases with price increase (law of supply - price & supply direct relationship) , Quantity Demanded falls (law of demand - price & demand inverse relationship)

Answer:

A. A credit to Child Care Fees Earned of $4,500.

Explanation:

The journal entry to record this given transaction is shown below:

Cash A/c Dr $4,500

       To Child Care Fees Earned A/c $4,500

(Being the fees earned is recorded)

After purchasing a coffee cup from your local gas station for $5.00, you can always refill your cup for $0.50. The sunk cost of
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

$4.50

Explanation:

The sunk cost is the cost that has been incurred and is unrecoverable in the process of taking a financing decision.

If the cost of a coffee cup from a local gas station cost $5.00 and the cost of refill is $0.50, the coffee is the actual element needed and from the refill, it can be estimated that it costs $0.50.

Hence the sunk or unrecoverable cost is the difference between the coffee cup and the refill cost

= $5.00 - $0.50

= $4.50

Ymorist [56]

Answer: $4,811

Explanation:

Assuming 6% of outstanding accounts receivable at the end of the current year are estimated to be uncollectible that would be,

= 6% * 98,700

= $5,922

The Allowance for Doubtful Accounts acts as a buffer for the business when bad debts are incurred.

Bad debts are taken from the Allowance as the Allowance has already been removed from the Receivables.

In cases where Bad debts exceed the buffer in the Allowance for Doubtful Debt Account we take everything in it and the remaining bad debt amount is debited to Bad Debt expense.

That would be,

= 5,922 - 1,111

= $4,811

$4,811 is the amount that should be debited to Bad Debts Expense.

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

invoice price (dirty price) = $1,004.13

Explanation:

semi-annual coupon = $1,000 x 7% x 1/2 = $35

clean price = $1,001.25

accrued interest = (Jan. 30 - Jan. 15) x $35 x 1/182 = $2.88

invoice price (dirty price) = clean price + accrued interest = $1,001.25 + $2.88 = $1,004.13

the dirty price or invoice price of a bond includes any accrued interest that the bond may have earned in the period between the last coupon payment and the transaction date.
