Answer 1

Answer:

C) $48,000

Explanation:

The account receivables is the account used to house revenue that has been earned but yet to be received in the balance sheet. It is the holding account pending the settlement of cash for services rendered or goods sold.

As such, where the Accounts Receivable account has a beginning balance of $10,000 and the company provides services of $50,000 on account during the month. The ending balance was $12,000

Let the amount received from customers be K

$10,000 + $50,000 - K = $12,000

K = $10,000 + $50,000 - $12,000

K = $48,000
