Answer:
The use of the allowance method of accounting for bad debts.
Explanation:
We use the allowance method to match the expected ad debt with the sales or account receivables which generates.
As sales of a givne month can be declared uncollectible after several month using a direct method we are putting the burden of the uncollectible in another accounting period while leaving the one which did that sale untouched.
The allowance makesthe expense in the same time period thus, it follows the recognition principle.
Answer:
Oak Corp distributed $15,000 to Glover and we are required to compute the amount and character of gain Glover must recognize under the scenarios as stated in the question:
a. No gain will be recognized by Glover. Rather, his stock basis will be reduced from $35,000 to $20,000 ($35,000 basis - $15,000 cash distribution). So, gain recognized by him is $0.
b. Long term capital gain of $7,000 ($15,000 - $8,000) will be recognized by Glover and his stock basis will be reduced from $8,000 to $0.
c. The entire $15,000 ($15,000-$0) will be recognized as long term capital gain by Glover and his stock basis will remain $0.

Answer:
$12.53
Explanation:
Data provided in the question
Par value = $1,000
Coupon rate = 2.5%
Reference CPI = 204.89
Now CPI = 205.44
By considering the above information, the correct calculation of the current interest payment is
= Par value × Current CPI ÷ Reference CPI × Coupon rate ÷ 2
= $1,000 × 205.44 ÷ 204.89 × 2.5% ÷ 2
= $12.53
We assume the interest is on semi annual payments
