Answer:

(1) (i) 9.16 times

(ii) 39.845 days

(2) Yes

Explanation:

1. Net credit sales = 35,497

Average net receivables = (3,391 + 4,359) ÷ 2

                                          = 3,875

So,

Receivables turnover ratio = Sales revenue (2022) ÷ Average net receivables

                                             = 35,497 ÷ 3,875

                                             = 9.16 times

However I don't know how they got the net receivables figure, because:

Gross receivable - ADA = net receivable,

but it doesn't work out like this above, so since the net receivable is given, I just used it as given.

Average collection period = 365 days ÷ Receivables turnover

                                            = 365 ÷ 9.16

                                            = 39.845 days

2. In order for something to be "material" it must be important.

Accounts Receivable are part of current assets and they are very important, so the answer is yes.

klemol [59]

Answer:

$1,255,000

Explanation:

The increase in accounts receivable is the portion of the current year sales revenue that has not been received in cash, hence, the cash collected from customers in the year 2010 is simply the sales adjusted for the impact of accounts receivable as shown below:

cash collection=sales revenue+beginning accounts receivable-ending accounts receivable

sales revenue=$1,300,000

beginning accounts receivable=$120,000

closing accounts receivable=$165,000

cash collection=$1,300,000+$120,000-$165,000

cash collection=$1,255,000

Garth decided to move out of a small homestead home and into a larger more expensive one. The market value of his old home at th
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

$200,000

Explanation:

we must first determine the assessed value not taxed on Garth's old home:

market value of Garth's old home - assessed value = $250,000 - $175,000 = $75,000

now we subtract $75,000 from the market value of Garth's new home:

$325,000 - $75,000 = $250,000 = adjusted assessed value of Garth's new home

The taxable value of Garth's new home (for city taxes) = adjusted assessed value - homestead exemptions (for city taxes) = $250,000 - $50,000 = $200,000
