The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The business decision based on the company where you work would be this. To open a new small branch of the fast-food restaurant as a concession in the municipal stadium.
The incremental cost is the future costs as a result of this business decision. This means that we have to consider extra money on a monthly basis to pay for the rent of the concession booth at the Municipal stadium.
The opportunity cost is that instead of opening our branch in the new downtown mall, we decided to move with the stadium option. Having decided to be at the mall could have allowed us to have more clients on a daily basis, especially on weekends.
The sunk cost is a cost from the past, an historical cost that really is not important in the present time to make a decision. Maybe, just a reference to a case in the past. And that's it.
Here we can refer to a cost when we opened the first location of the restaurant, but it was five years ago. Those were different situations, necessities, and conditions.

Answer: Please see the required journals below:
December 31:
Debit Bad debt expense $6,034
Credit Allowance for doubtful accounts $6,034
February 1:
Debit Allowance for doubtful accounts $431
Credit Accounts receivables $431
June 5:
Debit Cash $431
Credit Bad debt recovery (income statement) $431
Explanation: The company estimates its bad debt expense as percentage of sales. In this case 0.7% of its annual sales of $862,000 was deemed as uncollectible, that is, 0.7% x $862,000 = $6,034. The required journals to recognize this bad debt expense is provided above. However, since there was an existing provision, which resides in the allowance account, a write-off would definitely hit that account in order to extinguish the accounts receivable portion. Upon recovery of the write-off, we cannot reinstate the receivable since it was already extinguished but we need to recognize the recovery as a gain.
Answer:
Explanation:
The journal entries are shown below:
Taxes expense A/c Dr $12,320
To Prepaid Taxes $12,320
(Being prepaid taxes are adjusted)
Taxes expense A/c Dr $45,000
To Property taxes payable $45,000
(Being property taxes are adjusted)
The prepaid taxes are computed below:
= Prepaid taxes × (number of months ÷ total number of months in a year)
= $18,480 × (8 months ÷ 12 months)
= $12,320
The eight months is calculated from May 1 to December 31
Answer:
$1476.71
Explanation:
Formula = pmt(((1+r)^n)-1)/I
I = nominal interest rate
Pmt = dollar amount
r = interest rate
N = number of period
4930 = pmt(((1 +0.109)^3)-1)/0.109
4930 = pmt(1.109^3)-1/0.109
4930 = pmt(1.3639-1)/0.109
4930 = pmt(0.3638/0.109)
4930 = pmt3.3385
Pmt = 4930/3 3385
= $1476.71
