Answer:

80 years

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Simple interest rate charged = 1.25% = 0.0125

Now,

Let principal amount be '$x'

we know,  Simple interest = Principal × Interest Rate × Time

Since the debt is doubled this means the interest  is equal to the principal amount

Therefore,

$x = $x × 0.0125 × Time

or

1 = 0.0125 × Time

or

Time = 1 ÷ 0.0125

or

Time = 80 years

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

The average collection period is 17.78 days.

Explanation:

In this question, we have to first compute the average receivable turnover ratio.  

The formula of the average receivable turnover ratio is shown below:

= Net credit sales ÷ Average accounts receivable

where,

Net credit sales are $811,000

And, the average accounts receivable equals to

= Beginning account receivable + ending accounts receivable ÷ 2

= $41,000 + $38,000 ÷ 2

= $39,500

So, the average receivable turnover ratio equals to

= $811,000 ÷ $39,500

= 20.53

Now, we calculate the average collection period, the formula is shown below

= Total Number of days in a year ÷ average receivable turnover ratio

= 365 ÷ 20.53

= 17.78 days.

Hence, the average collection period is 17.78 days.

kkurt [141]

Answer:

$400,000

Explanation:

Since at December 31, Year 5, Tedd's tax advisor believed that an unfavorable outcome was <u>probable</u>. And a <u>reasonable estimate </u>of additional taxes was $400,000 but could be as much as $600,000.

Although after the Year 5 financial statements were issued, Tedd received and accepted an IRS settlement offer of $450,000.

Tedd should have included an amount of $400,000 as accrued liability in its December 31, Year 5 balance sheet

The reason is that according to the International Financial Reporting Standards, a PROVISION must be made as long as the conditions below were obtainable at year end.

- Existing Condition (which in this case is the tax dispute with the IRS)

- Probable Cash Outflow (which Tedd's Tax adviser confirmed)

- Reliable Estimate of Outflow ( which the scenario stated ''A reasonable estimate of additional taxes was $400,000'')

Hence, such 'reasonable estimate is the appropriate amount for inclusion in the financial statements.

vichka [17]

Answer:

Differential cost of Alternative B over Alternative A=$61,600

Explanation:

Differential Cost:

It is the difference in costs if there are more than one alternatives and one alternative is chosen while rejecting the other alternatives.

In order to calculate the differential cost of Alternative B over Alternative A, including all of the relevant costs we first calculate the total cost of both alternatives and then tae the difference.

Total Of Alternative A=Material Cost+Processing Cost+Equipment Rental+occupancy costs.

Total Of Alternative A=$28000+$34000+$11000+$19500=$92,500

Total Of Alternative B=Material Cost+Processing Cost+Equipment Rental+occupancy costs.

Total Of Alternative B=$64000+$34000+$28500+$27600=$154,100

Differential cost of Alternative B over Alternative A=Total Of Alternative B-Total Of Alternative A

Differential cost of Alternative B over Alternative A=$154,100-$92,500

Differential cost of Alternative B over Alternative A=$61,600
