Andru [333]

Answer:

$33,400

Explanation:

Given that,

Accounts Receivable = $1,130,000

Allowances for Doubtful Accounts = $23,100

Estimated bad debts:

= 5% of outstanding receivables

= $56,500

We simply deduct the allowance for doubtful accounts balance from the estimated bad debts to record the amount of bad debt expense.

Amount of bad debt expense will the company record:

= Estimated bad debts - Allowances for Doubtful Accounts

= $56,500 - $23,100

= $33,400

Barry has just become eligible for his​ employer-sponsored retirement plan. Barry is 40 and plans to retire at 65. Barry calcula
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

$713,449.15

Explanation:

Barry’s total personal amount to invest = Initial amount + additional amount

                                                                 = $4,500 + 1,140

Barry’s total personal amount to invest = $5,640

Since Barry’s employer would match this amount, total amount to invest will be;

Total amount to invest for Barry = $5,640 + $5,640 = $11,280

The new amount Barry will have at retirement can be calculated using future value of an annuity formula stated as follows:

FV = M × {[(1 + r)^n - 1] ÷ r} ................................. (1)

Where,

FV = Future value of the amount at the retirement

M = Total amount to contribute yearly by Barry and his employer = $11,280

r = Rate of return = 7% = 0.07

n = number of periods = 65 – 40 = 25 years

Substituting the values for into equation (1), we have:

FV = $11,280 × {[(1 + 0.07)^25 - 1] ÷ 0.07}

     = $11,280 × {[(1.07)^25 - 1] ÷ 0.07}

     = $11,280 × {[5.42743264012289 - 1] ÷ 0.07}

     = $11,280 × {4.42743264012289 ÷ 0.07}

     = $11,280 × 63.2490377160413

FV = $713,449.15

Therefore, Barry would have $713,449.15 at retirement if he could invest an additional $1,140 per year that his employer would match.
