Answer:

This is set up by debiting the bad debt expense $40,000 and crediting an allowance for uncollectible receivables $40,000.

Explanation:

When sales are made and cash is yet to be collected, credit sales and debit accounts receivable.

Where an assessment is carried out and part or all of the amounts expected to be received ( as recorded in the accounts receivable) become doubtful, an allowance is created by crediting allowance for doubtful debts and debiting bad debts expense.

Allowance for uncollectible accounts amounts to

= $240,000 - $200,000

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

c. the average cost method.

Explanation:

Windsor INC. purchased inventory during the month of June as follows:

June 1 129 units at $890

June 10 172 units at $1340

June 15 172 units at $1440

June 28 129 units at $ 1140

and at the end of the period, there are 180 units on hand.

In order to get highest gross profit the closing sock should be the highest, accordingly the value of inventory at hand should as as follows under different method explain below:

Under FIFO method the inventory first enter into the enterprise is available for sale at first so the inventory of 180 units at end should be values at the last price mentioned in the question i.e $1140, therefore the value amounts to $1140*180 units=$205200

Under LIFO method, likewise the last entered inventory will be available for sale and the inventory at the end of period will be valued at the price at which the inventory first bought i.e $890, therefore the value amounts to 180 units*$890=$160200

Under Average cost method the effect of differential price is distributed over the quantity bough during a period so that the company remains in ineffective condition during the period from the price change

Average cost per unit= (129*$890 +172*$1340+ 172*$1440+129*$1140)/602 units

=$1229.29

and for the 180 units the value amounts to 180*$122.29=$221271.429

so, as per explanation given above, it is certain that the highest value will be in average cost method.

The correct option is - c. the average cost method.

Consider a portfolio of stocks X, Y, Z whose returns in various economic conditions are set forth below.
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

The expected return is 10.95%

Explanation:

CALCULATE THE EXPECTED RETURN OF X

State _____Probability __X_____Expected return

Boom ____ 0.25 ______22%  ___5.50%

Normal ___ 0.60 ______15%  ___ 9.00%

Recession _0.15 _______5% ___ <u>0.75%  </u>

Total ______________________<u>15.25%</u>

CALCULATE THE EXPECTED RETURN OF Y

State _____Probability __Y_____Expected return

Boom ____ 0.25 ______10%  ___ 2.50%

Normal ___ 0.60 ______9%  ____5.40%

Recession _0.15 _______8% ___ <u>1.20%  </u>

Total ______________________<u>9.10%</u>

Now calculate the weighted average return based on investment in each portfolio

Expected return = ( Expected return of Assets X x Weight of Asset X ) + ( Expected return of Assets Y x Weight of Asset Y )  

Expected return = ( 15.25% x $3000/$10000 ) + ( 9.10% x $7000/$10000 )  

Expected return = 4.575% + 6.370%

Expected return = 10.945%

Expected return = 10.95%

Unfortunately, Angie doesn't have enough money in her account right now. She needs to make additional contributions at the end o
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer: $770.22

Explanation:

If she makes equal contributions then those would be annuities. The $9,000 she wants to have will be the future value of the amount currently in her account and the annuity.

9,000 = 5,000 ( 1 + r) ^ n + ( annuity * future value interest factor of an annuity, 9%,  3 years)

9,000 = 5,000 ( 1 + 9%) ^ 3 + ( Annuity * 3.2781)

9,000 = 6,475.145‬ + 3.2781 * Annuity

Annuity  = (9,000 - 6,475.145‬) / 3.2781

Annuity = $770.22
