Answer:

(b) Shane has to pay $20,000 to Morgan for breach of contract

Explanation:

In the situation, it is given that Shane decides to quit as he gets another job so he breaks the contract instead of finishing his work on time.  

Due to breach of contract, Shane has to pay $20,000 to Morgan because it is written in the party that if any party breaks the contract than he has to pay the amount. But due to some unnatural causes, no one has to pay.  

In the given case, Shane has deliberately broken the contract so it is compulsory to pay the $20,000 to Morgan.  

Hence, option b is correct

Ratling [72]

Answer:

Miscellaneous benefits

Explanation:

In this case, Broker AI cannot put this in the main agreement section of the work agreement because there are certain information about the rights, the terms of sales and other things which are added to the main section of the agreement. In this case, it is the Broker who offers his agent, and this is more like an offer or promotion from the Broker, hence it must be in the miscellaneous benefit section of the work agreement.

An economy is operating with output $300 billion below its natural rate, and fiscal policymakers want to close this recessionary
saw5 [17]

Answer and Explanation:

a. The computation is shown below;

As we know that

Y/G = 1 ÷ (1-MPC)

Here

Y = $300 billion,

MPC = 0.75

So,  

300 ÷ G = 1 ÷ 0.25

G = $75

So the government should rise the spending by $75 in order to close out the recessionary gap

So, the government should increase the spending by $30 to close the recessionary gap.

<span>When white settlers from Europe moved to North America, Native Americans lost their reign on their land.

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

What amount would the company report as its net accounts receivable on December 31, 2017?

Accounts Receivable $873,000

Prepare the journal entry to write off the accounts on January 2, 2018.

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts  $ 26,000  

Accounts Receivable   $ 26,000

Assuming no other transactions occurred between December 31, 2017, and January 3, 2018, what amount would the company report as its net accounts receivable on January 3, 2018?

The same amount reported on December 31, 2017, if the company doesn't report any movement with the credit debtor there is nothing to do.

Has net accounts receivable changed from December 31, 2017?

The net accounts are the same there is not change in the balance because the write-off it's just a reclassification between the accounts, so the balance keep the same as before.

Explanation:

Accounts Receivable $873,000

The company reports as net accounts receivable the total amount on Accounts Receivable minus the total amount on the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts  which represent the amount of credit that won't be possible to collect, the result it's the total value on net accounts receivable.  

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts  $ 26,000  

Accounts Receivable   $ 26,000

As the company just recognized the accounts not collectible, at the moment of the write off it's just a reclasification between the accounts of Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts and Accounts Receivable.

At this moment it's a certainly that the accounts won't be collected, that is why the entry is recorded.
