n to market that will sell for $320. Management believes it must lower the price to $320 to compete in the market for large televisions.

Answer:

$238.18

Explanation:

For calculation of target cost first we need to follow some steps which is shown below:-

Step 1

Operating income before = Sold television - Cost

= $380 - $290

= $90

Step 2

Total operating income = $90 × 120,000

= 10,800,000

Step 3

New sales in units = Target operating income ÷ Increase percentage

= 10,800,000 ÷ (120,000 × 110%)

= 10,800,000 ÷ 132,000

= $81.82

Finally

So, the Target cost = Lower price - New sales in units

= $320 - $81.82

= $238.18

DR Interest receivable                                  26,400

CR Interest revenue                                                       26,400

Explanation:

As first lease has already been paid, the amount left of the lease is;

= 280,000 - 40,000

=$240,000

Interest is 11% so the interest to be received in December is;

= 11% * 240,000

= $‭26,400‬

This will be debited to Interest receivable as it is money owed and credited to Interest revenue as it is money earned.
