Option (B) If the market rate of interest is 10%, the bonds will issue at a discount

Explanation:

Interest rate risk is defined as the risk changing which, interest rates will affect bond prices. When current interest rates are greater than a bond's coupon rate, the bond will be sold below its face value at a discount.

Vasguez Corporation had a 1/1/20 balance in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts of $20,000 CR. During 2020, it wrote off $14,400
Ket [755]

Answer:

a. $14,200

Explanation:

The computation of the bad debt expense is shown below:

Balance in Allowance for doubtful Accounts = Opening Balance in Allowance for Doubtful Account - Accounts Wrote Off  + Bad debts recovered

= $20,000 - $11,400 + $4,200

= $9,800

And, Closing Balance is

= $480,000 × 5%

= $24,000

So, the bad debt expense is

= $24,000 - $9,800

= $14,200

We simply applied the above calculations
