Answer:

B. $3,470

Explanation:

An income statement approach to estimate bad debts involves the estimation of bad debt as a percentage of credit sales.

Given the following information about Sheldon Company;

net credit sales = $40,000

Accounts Receivable = $11,500

Allowance for Bad Debts = $670

Estimate of bad debts = 7% × $40,000

                                     = $2,800

Ending balance in the Allowance for Bad Debts account = $2,800 + $670

= $3,470

Alina [70]

Answer:

According to the basic DCF stock valuation model, the value an investor should assign to a share of stock is dependent on the length of time he or she plans to hold the stock.

A. True

Explanation:

The DCF (Discounted Cash Flow) method of stock valuation is based on the assumption of the time-value of money.  This approach considers that the cash flow that is received today is much more than the same amount of cash flow received any other time in the future.  And the time of the future receipt or payment affects the amount of the cash flow, with decreasing consequences based on increasing time into the future.
