Answer: $15,500

Explanation:

First we calculate the estimated Uncollecteble debt,

= 6% of 310,000

= 0.06 (310,000)

= $18,600

We will then subtract the existing $3,100 to find out how much we will send to the Bad Debt Expense account because the amount already in the account needs to be included in the $18,600.

= 18,600 - 3,100

= $15,500

We will therefore Debit the Bad Debt Expense account with $15,500 and Credit the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts with the same amount.

If you need any clarification do react or comment.

There is conflict and distrust in the team. Glen, the team leader, doesn't think the team members are working enough. The team members, on the other hand, don't think Glen trusts them to do their jobs. You want to resolve this conflict and make sure it doesn't happen again-<u>This can be achieved by using Conflict Management technique</u>

Explanation:

<u>Conflict in the workplace is inevitable and is a painful reality and is the major reason   for poor productivity and frustration among the employees.If conflict is managed in a proper way it can lead to increase in employees productivity.The strategist that can be used are:-</u>

<u>1) Understand the situation. </u>

Understanding/listening  both the side of the story before resolving the conflict is very important

<u>2) Acknowledge the problem. </u>

Acknowledging the frustration and concerns of the employees is an important step in resolving the conflict. what might seems to be a small problem to an employee may be a big problem for another person

Information evaluation require time.Do not take any decision related to conflict management quickly,try to understand and resolve the situation.

<u>4)Avoid using coercion and intimidation. </u>

Emotional outbursts or coercing people may stop the problem temporarily, but do not fool yourself into thinking it is a long-term solution. Odds are the problem will resurface. At that point not only will you have the initial problem to deal with, but also the angry feelings that have festered below the surface during the interim.

<u>5) Focus on the problem, not the individual. </u>

Most people are known to be a  “problematic individual” during their work but one must avoid their  own pre-conceived notion or attitude about individuals and should focus on problem resolution.

Allow both the parties to keep their points on the conflict and then try to identify the real cause of conflict.

<u> 8. Act decisively. </u>

Communicating  to all the parties involved, and reviewed all the circumstances, and then take  your decision and act. Don’t leave the issue in limbo.

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

$450

Explanation:

Activity based costing is the process by which a business allocates cost on the basis of the number of times an activity is carried out.

For example if different departments use a photocopier to copy 3,000, 5,000, and 2,000 sheets. The total cost will be allocated based on amount of activity per department.

In this instance

Total number of boards= 36,000

Inspections= 5% of the total

Inspection cost= $15 per hour

Percentage that will be inspected= 0.05 * 36,000 = $1,800

It takes one minute to inspect each board, there are 60 minutes in one hour. So 60 boards are inspected in one hour.

Number of inspection hours= 1,800 ÷ 60= 30 hours

Total cost of inspection= Cost per hour * Number of hours

Total cost of inspection= 15 * 30= $450
