Answer:
Option (B) is correct.
Explanation:
Amount of which adjusting entry required:
= Amount of uncollectible accounts - Balance in Allowance for uncollectible accounts
= (Balance in accounts receivable × Estimated percentage of accounts receivable to be uncollectible) - Balance in Allowance for uncollectible accounts
= ($200,000 × 4%) - $2,000
= $8,000 - $2,000
= $6,000
Therefore, the adjusting entry is as follows:
Bad debt expense A/c Dr. $6,000
To Allowance for uncollectible accounts $6,000
(To record the bad debt expense)
Answer:
5.37%
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
We can calculate the company’s after tax return on preferred by using following formula:-
Company’s After Tax Return = Before Tax Dividend Yield Rate on Preferred Stock × [1 - (1 - Dividend Exclusive) × (Tax Rate)]
= 6% × [1 - (1 - 70%) × (35%)]
= 0.06 × [1 - (1 - 0.70) × (0.35)]
= 0.06 × [1 - (0.30) × (0.35)]
= 0.06 × (1 - 0.105)
= 0.0537
= 5.37%
We simply applied the above formula to determine the company after tax return
Answer:
They should operate Mine 1 for 1 hour and Mine 2 for 3 hours to meet the contractual obligations and minimize cost.
Explanation:
The formulation of the linear programming is:
Objective function:
Restrictions:
- High-grade ore: 
- Medium-grade ore: 
- Low-grade ore: 
- No negative hours: 
We start graphing the restrictions in a M1-M2 plane.
In the figure attached, we have the feasible region, where all the restrictions are validated, and the four points of intersection of 2 restrictions.
In one of this four points lies the minimum cost.
Graphically, we can graph the cost function over this feasible region, with different cost levels. When the line cost intersects one of the four points with the lowest level of cost, this is the optimum combination.
(NOTE: it is best to start with a low guessing of the cost and going up until it reaches one point in the feasible region).
The solution is for the point (M1=1, M2=3), with a cost of C=$680.
The cost function graph is attached.
Answer:
1. ANSWER: 20,000
2. ANSWER: $400,000
3. ANSWER: $28.45
Explanation:
1. If the average price for a new disposable cell phone is $20, and the total market potential for that product is $4 million;and Topco, Inc. has a planned market share of 10 percent. Then, Topco have the potential to sell in this market 10% * $4 million / $20 = 20,000 units of the proposed cell phone.
2. The planned market share in dollars is 10% * $4 million = $400,000
3. If Atlantic Car Rental charges $29.95 per day to rent a mid-size automobile. Pacific Car Rental, Atlantic's main competitor, just reduced prices on all its car rentals. In response, Atlantic reduced its prices by 5 percent.
Now Atlantic's new cost of rental for mid-size cars is: 95% of $29.95 = $28.45
