Answer:

a.

1 March 2019 Purchases                                  $87000 Dr

                              Notes payable                             $87000 Cr

b.

31 September 2019  Interest expense                       $5075 Dr

                                       Interest Payable                             $5075 Cr

Explanation:

a.

The purchase of inventory against notes payable will increase asset-inventory and will be recorded as a debit to purchases. The credit side of the inventory will be a current liability of notes payable for the amount of purchases.

b.

The note is a 9 month note and the interest will be paid at maturity on 30 November 2019. Following the accrual principle, the note accrues interest over its 9 months period equally. So, on 31 September, the interest on note for 7 months will be accrued.

Interest for 7 months = 87000 * 0.1 * 7/12 = $5075

This will be recorded as an expense and a liability as it is unpaid.

Answer:

(a)

March 1, 2019

Dr. Purchases / Purchases     $87,000

Cr. Note payable                     $87,000

(b)

September 31, 2019

Dr. Interest Expense              $5,075

Cr. Interest Payable on Note $5,075

Explanation:

(a)

The purchases are made against the issuance of the note. The note is a liability for the business. As Inventory is received against the liability, so to increase the Inventory balance, we debited the purchases / Inventory account because it is an asset and has debit nature.

(b)

Only 7 month's interest is accrued on September 30, 2019. Expense is charged against a liability of Interest payable on note which is credited..

Interest on Note = $87,000 x 10% x 7/12 = $5,075

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer: resistance to change

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that InSeason Inc. started a chain of organic supermarkets that had initial success and that the managers achieved a mastery of the firm's current environment, thereby filling a need in the market.

We are further told that InSeason defined and measured it success by financial metrics, with a focus on short-term performance and that as a result, the firm put in place metrics and systems to accommodate and manage increasing firm size due to continued success.

As a result of this tightly coupled system, InSeason developed a resistance to change. Resistance to change could be as a result of fear of failure by the company.

elena-s [515]

Answer:

The required journals are:

Debit Bad debt expense                                          $10,070

Credit Allowance for doubtful accounts                 $10,070

<em>(To record bad debt for the year)</em>

Explanation:

To understand the effects of the transactions, we need to journalize as follows:

Debit Accounts receivable                                    $454,000

Credit Sales revenue                                             $454,000

<em>(To record sales transaction on account)</em>

Debit Cash                                                             $325,000

Credit Accounts receivable                                  $325,000

<em>(To record collections on account)</em>

Debit Allowance for doubtful accounts                   $5,600

Credit Accounts receivable                                     $5,600

<em>(To record write-off of accounts receivable)</em>

With the above journals, the balance in accounts receivable will be: $20,000 + $454,000 - $325,000 - $5,600 = $143,400. The 5% of $143,400 will be $7,170.

The effect of the write-off was to throw the unadjusted allowance for doubtful account into debit as $2,700 - $5,600 = $2,900. The required bad debt expense will $10,070 ($7,170 + $2,900).

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

D) $15,000.

Explanation:

190,000 excess of value Building  amortized over 10 years:   19,000

 70,000 lesser value on Equipment amortized over 5 years: 14,000

We will amortize the building at a rate of 19,000 dollar per year

and we will amortize the equipment at 14,000 per year

the inventory as still is in the company's possesion will also need to be adjsuted

10,000 + 19,000 - 14,000 = 15,000

Suppose you owned a portfolio consisting of $250,000 of long-term U.S. government bonds. Would your portfolio be riskless? Expla
hammer [34]

Answer and Explanation:

An investment when it would be risk free in that case both the principal and the interest amount are to be paid within the prescribed time. Also when the U.S government bonds i.e. long term would be issued by the government have a lesser interest rate as compared with the other riskier securities available at the market place this is because as the government would default next to zero in case of the short term it would make the default when there are extreme situations arise.

Therefore in the short term it would be risk free

But in the long run, the person is based on the treasury bills returns so that he or she could equate the similar standard of living also it would not suffice when the inflation rises

Therefore the less risky investment would be of Government bonds
