Answer: $10,700

Explanation:

The Uncollectible Account Expense is the Accounting Adjustment made when a Receivable defaults on their debt and it can be calculated using the following formula,

= Uncollectible Amount written off + Closing Balance - Opening Balance.

Now the balances are as follows,

Opening Balance for Year 2 = 4,500

Closing Balance for Year 2 = 6,800

Uncollectible Amount written off during Year 2 = 8,400

Calculating therefore,

= 6,800 + 8,400 - 4,500

= $10,700

Allegheny will report $10,700 as Uncollectible Accounts Expense for Year 2.

Answer:

The WACC is 11.64%

Explanation:

The weighted average cost of capital or WACC is the cost to firm of raising its total capital based on its capital structure. The capital structure of the firm can contain debt, preferred stock and common stock. The WACC take the weight of each component as a proportion of total value of assets and multiply it by the rate of return or cost of each component.

WACC = wD * rD * (1-tax rate)  +  wE *rE

Where,

  • wD and wE represent the weights of debt and equity as a proportion of total assets
  • rD and rE are the cost of debt and cost of equity
  • We multiply rD by (-tax rate) because we take after tax cost of debt for WACC calculation

Weight of debt = 2000000 / (2000000 + 3000000)  =  2/5 or 0.4

Weight of equity is = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6

WACC = 0.4 * 0.06 * (1-0.4)  +  0.6 * 0.17

WACC = 0.1164 or 11.64%

If someone produced too little of a good, this would suggest that rational choice cannot be applied to many economic decisions.
juin [17]
If someone produced too little of a good, this would suggest that the good was produced to the point where its marginal benefit exceeded its marginal cost.
Both are metrics used in economics for measurement of costs and benefits.
Marginal benefit is the gain the business receives for doing anything "one more time.", while marginal cost is the additional cost the business incurs to produce one more unit.
This means that if someone produced too little of a good, the business gained more than it lost.
