Answer:

Bad debt expense for 2020 is - $ 2,234

Explanation:

Adjustment to the Allowance for Doubtful Debts (Increase or Decrease) are recorded in the Income Statement as part of Bad Debts Expenses as follows;

<em>Increase in Allowance for Doubtful debts = Increases the Bad Debts Expense</em>

<em>Decrease in Allowance for Doubtful debts = Decreases the Bad Debts Expense</em>

During the Period Allowances for Doubtful Debts are calculated as :

Allowances for Doubtful Debts = $53,600 × 6%

                                                    = $ 3,216

Bad Debt Expense = $ 3,216-$5,450

                                =  - $ 2,234

What should you do to elicit the most useful data in your interviews? Ask primarily yes-or-no questions. Ask leading and ambiguo
grin007 [14]

Answer:

Make your questions objective and friendly.

Explanation:

An interview is an essential step in the process of selecting a candidate to fill a position in a company.

Through the interview, verbal and non-verbal data are collected that will help in the relationship between the profile of the interviewed candidate and the profile expected to fill the vacancy.

It is important that the interviewer uses some techniques to make the interview flow effectively, the first of which is to maintain a friendly posture, as it is common for candidates for an interview to feel intimidated or anxious due to the selection process.

It is also essential that the questions are objective and honest, so that there is a correct understanding and the candidate can answer correctly and effectively.

And the interview should be a step that does not cause intimidation and lack of ethics on both sides, it is ideal that the candidate feels motivated to ask relevant questions to answer their doubts, and that the interviewer conducts the interview schedule in an effective way.
