Answer:

The total cost of operating a truck would be $18000 as calculated below.

Explanation:

The total costs of operating the truck is a combination of fixed costs of $5500 per year and variable of $0.50 per mile ,hence the total cost function is given as:

TC=5500+0.50X

Where represents the number of miles driven per year.

Since X=25000 miles

TC=$5500+($0.50*25000)

TC=$5500+$12500

TC=$18000

The understanding here is that wages paid to the two employees working  with the truck is already embedded in the fixed costs of $5500 per year, otherwise that would been given as a distinct cost entirely.

4,940 -220= 4,720

<h2>And the entry is</h2><h2 />

Bad debt expense  4,720

                    Allowance for Doubtful Accounts 4,720

<h3 />
