Answer:

A. $800

Explanation:

Ana Co.

Sales                            $500,000        

Accounts Receivable    $40,000      

Allowance for doubtful accounts   $300  Credit

Bad Debts Expense = 2 % of $ 40,000=   $  800          

The adjusting entry would be

Bad Debts Expense $ 800 Dr.

Allowance for doubtful accounts   $800  Credit    

As we already have a credit balance of $ 300 in the doubtful accounts we will increase it with an amount of $ 500.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $ 500 Debit

Account Receivable                     $ 500 Credit

What is the problem with companies pursuing patents specifically to hinder, or prevent, competition?
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:According to the article, when companies earn patents specifically to prevent competition, it hinders the innovation of products that might actually be better. For instance, Bruce Nolop describes how his company had to pay more attention to the "minefield of existing patents than on the expected value that we could bring to customers." Rosabeth Moss Kanter suggests a "use it or lose it" solution to this problem. She thinks that a company that patents an item would be forced to use the patented idea or product or risk losing the patent. This idea would encourage more competition and prevent patent abuse.
