Answer:

Journal entry

Explanation:

Before passing the journal entry we need to do the following calculations

Uncollected amount is

= $4,400 × 50%

= $2,200

Uncollected amount is

= ($4,400 - $2,200) × 0.03

= $2,200 × 0.03

= $66

So, the total amount is

= $2,200 + $66

= $2,266

Now the journal entry is

Bad debt expense $2,266

        To Allowance for uncollectible accounts $2,266

(Being the uncollectible account is recorded)

Another philosopher who developed this concept was John Stuart Mill in his book "Utilitarianism" in 1863.

Part of the fact that every human being always acts, whether at the individual, collective, private, public level, as in political legislation, according to the principle of greatest happiness, in view of the benefit of the greatest number of individuals.

"Utility" is defined in several ways, generally in terms of the welfare of human beings. Bentham described it as the sum of all pleasure that results from an action, minus the suffering of any person involved in that action. In neoclassical economics, preference satisfaction is called utility while in moral philosophy, it is synonymous with happiness, whatever the way in which it is understood. This ethical doctrine is sometimes summarized as "the maximum welfare for the maximum number".

adoni [48]

Answer:

C. shortage cost​ / (overage cost​ + shortage​ cost).

Explanation:

For computing the service level for the seasonal products, we divide the shortage cost to the overage cost plus shortage cost.  

The overage cost is that cost which is incurred for ordering excess inventory which is not required for the present level of production level. It is a loss for the company.  

And, the shortage cost is that cost in which the company has no stock in their warehouse through which it impacts the business image and the goodwill. The company's customers will go to another company which results in the loss of the company customers.

For service level, we added the overage cost and shortage cost in the denominator side
