Answer:

(DR) Income Summary 38,600

(CR)        Retained Earnings      38,600

and

(DR) Retained Earnings 18,000

(CR)          Dividends                  18,000

Explanation:

Since the revenue and expense have zero balances, it means that the Echo corporation's accountant completed the closing entry for those account.

The remaining items to be closed is the Income Summary and Dividends account. Simply put those accounts on the opposite side of their balance.

Income summary has a credit balance of 38,600 (347,400-308,800)

So we have to debit Income Summary and the corresponding credit is Retained Earnings.

Next, dividends has a debit balance of $18,000 so just credit dividends and debit retained earnings to complete the closing procedures.

Explanation:

Calculation to determine your net profit or loss on this investment

Using this formula

Net profit/Loss=(Option price per share-Exercise price+Stock price)×100×10

By what amount would net income differ if bad debt expense was computed using the percentage-of-receivables approach? Assume tha
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

By following the Accountants Principle and Dicksons policy of debiting Bad debt accounts as Accounts are written off, the Net income would have been impacted negatively (reduced) by the write off from Prior period of $31,330 only

However, by following the % of receivables approach, a total of $31,330 (Write off from prior period) + $9,240 (current period provision for bad debt) will impact the Net Income negatively (reduced)  = $40,570

Explanation:

Accounts receivable balance = $77,000

12% projected uncollectible debt = $9,240

Provision for bad debt under the % of receivables approach = $9,240

Amount written off related to prior year = $31,330

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

$3 loss

Explanation:

Given that

Selling value of an asset = $60

Spot price at that time = $58

The Spot price in one year = $63

So, the now the gain or loss for one year would be

= Selling value of an asset - Spot price in one year

= $60 - $63

= $3 loss

Since we have to find out for one year so we considered the price for one year i.e selling price and the spot price

trapecia [35]

Answer:

C) $340,240

Explanation:

                                     Service Department  Operating Department

                                  Administrative Facilities  Assembly Wholesaling

Departmental costs $26,840     $59,400   $183,430   $321,190

Employee time (hours)      4,000       2,000     29,000 15,000

Space occupied - sq ft     2,000       2,000     30,000  6,000

total administrative costs = $26,840

total employee hours = 29,000 + 15,000 = 44,000

administrative cost per employee hour = $26,840 / 44,000 = $0.61

total facilities costs = $59,400

total square feet = 30,000 + 6,000 = 36,000

administrative cost per employee hour = $59,400 / 36,000 = $1.65

total Wholesaling Department cost = $321,190 + ($0.61 x 15,000) + ($1.65 x 6,000) = $321,190 + $9,150 + $9,900 = $340,240
