Answer:

If the effective tax rate increases then the net savings coming from investments will get lowered as a result the investment will have higher payback period (The increase in effective tax rate would lower demand of the product which means there is decline in net saving arising from the sale of the product). Likewise this decrease in annual net savings will also decrease the internal rate of return which shows that their are increased chances of project rejections. The NPV method is based on cash flows and relevant costing just like IRR and payback method but the only difference is that it assumes that the cash earned would be reinvested at cost of capital. The NPV will also decrease due to increased effective tax rate.

Uncollectible accounts are determined by the​ percent-of-sales method to be ​% of credit sales. How much is​ uncollectible-accou
lesya [120]

Answer:

$1,160

Explanation:

<em>Hie, I have attached the full question as an image below.</em>

The firm usually makes provision for certain amounts so as not to overstate their profits. This expected as it is prudent than reporting profits that might never occur. Provisions of Uncollectible accounts are examples of such amounts.

An increase in Uncollectible amount compared to the opening balance is treated as an Expense in the Income Statement whilst a decrease is treated as an Income.

For this question, we are told that Uncollectible accounts are determined by the​ percent-of-sales method to be ​4% of credit sales. Thus calculation of the 2012 uncollectible-account expense is as follows :

Credit Sales - 2012 = $44,000

Beginning Balance in allowances = $600

Therefore,

Uncollectable Amount (2012) = Credit Sales x percent-of-sales

                                                 = $44,000 x 4%

                                                 = $1,760

The Uncollectable amount has increased by $1,160 ($1,760 - $600)

Conclusion :

The collectible-account expense for 2012 is $1,160
