Answer:

C and D

Explanation:

In preparing a static budget, managers use predicted values for inputs and outputs. The anticipated prices are adopted at the beginning of the accounting period. A static budget is a forecast of the expected revenues and expenses of an organization over a specified period. The prices used in a static budget remain unchanged regardless of market fluctuations. Static budgets are also called fixed budgets

At the end of a period, the actual numbers realized may be quite different from the figures in a static budgeted. Managers use static budgets to target the level of expenses, costs, and revenues. Governments departments and non-profit organizations use static budgets as their incomes are unlikely to change throughout a period.

Management compares the actual results at the end of a period, and the budgeted numbers at the beginning to measure perfomance or achievement. The comparison is for both revenues and expenditures.

An accountant increases the price he charges for his services by 2 percent. In response, the demand for his services decreases

Rashid [163]

Answer:

Decrease

Explanation:

The reason is that the price and demand are inversely proportional so if the price has been increased then the demand of the product will be decreased. Take the example of Bugatti Chiron, the price of the car is $19 million and total number of people that own is in tens this is because the buyers are less in quantity due to higher prices of the product. Same is the case here, if the accountant is going to charge high then his revenue will drop due to lower people are willing to buy its services.

All sales are made on credit. Based on past experience, the company estimates 1% of credit sales to be uncollectible. What adjus

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

Debit : Bad Debts account : $2000 (appearing in the income statement)

Credit : Provision for doubtful debts account : $2000 (appearing in the balance sheet)

Explanation:

This is an example of provision for doubtful debts. Provision for doubtful debts is an estimated amount of bad debts from accounts receivables that has been issues but not yet collected. This is done under the accrual accounting concept where an expense is identified as soon as invoices have been issued rather than waiting long periods to find out which invoice is irrecoverable. It is typically an estimate based on past experience.

In this question, the sales value has not been provided, hence an assumption is made:

Sales : $200,000

If provision for doubtful debts is 1% of sales and all sales is on credit, then the provision for doubtful debts amount is = 1% x $200,000 = $2000

Provision for doubtful debts is an accounts receivable contra account and thus has a credit balance and is recorded in the balance sheet, listed directly under accounts receivables.

The entry is recorded as:

Debit : Bad Debts account : $2000 (appearing in the income statement)

Credit : Provision for doubtful debts account : $2000 (appearing in the balance sheet)

Ted, a project manager, wants to invest in a project with an initial cost of $58,500 and cash flows of $32,400 and $38,500 in Ye

Art [367]

Answer:

The project will not be approved

Explanation:

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after-tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested

IRR can be calculated with a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 0 = $-58,500

Cash flow in year 1 = $32,400

Cash flow in year 2 = $38,500

IRR = 13,41%

profitability index = 1 + (NPV / Initial investment)

Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 0 = $-58,500

Cash flow in year 1 = $32,400

Cash flow in year 2 = $38,500

I = 10%

NPV = $2,772.72

PI = 1 + $2,772.72 / $58,500 = 1.04

The project will not be approved because the PI is less than the amount of return the boss wants even though the IRR is less than the discount rate

To find the NPV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

3. Press compute

To find the IRR using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button and then press the compute button.
