Answer and Explanation

Given:

Accounts receivable balance = $598,000

Percentage of receivables that are uncollectible = 5% or 0.05

Uncollectible receivables = 0.05 × 598,000 = $29,900

Adjusting journal entry to record bad debt expense is:

Particulars                                          Debit              Credit

Bad debts expense                            XXXXX

     Allowance for doubtful debts                               XXXXX

(Being bad debts incurred)

Noe, Allowance for doubtful debts has a credit balance of $4,800.

Bad debt incurred = 29,900 - 4,800 = $25,100

So adjusting entry :

Particulars                                          Debit              Credit

Bad debts expense                            $25,100

     Allowance for doubtful debts                             $25,100

(Being bad debts incurred)

Galen Company income under variable costing is $1,050,000. Fixed production costs in ending inventory are $300,000 and $250,000
lana [24]

Answer:

Income under absorption costing = $1,100,000

Explanation:

Marginal and absorption costing are two different methods to deal with fixed production overheads and and decide whether or not they are included in valuation of inventory.

<u>Valuation of inventory</u>

Opening and closing inventory are valued at variable cost under variable costing.  Whereas in absorption costing, opening and closing inventory are valued at full production cost (including fixed production overheads).

<u>Reconciling profits reported under two different methods</u>

When inventory levels increase or decrease during a period then profits will differ under absorption and marginal costing because of fixed production cost.

Net Income under absorption costing = Income under variable costing + fixed production cost in ending inventory – fixed production cost in beginning inventory

= $1,050,000 + $300,000 - $250,000

= $1,100,000

If the money supply is​ $500 and nominal income is​ $3,000, the velocity of money is A. ​1/60. B. ​1/6. C. 6. D. 60.
algol [13]

Answer:

The correct option is c.6

Explanation:

For computing the velocity of money, the following formula should be used which is shown below:

The Velocity of money = Nominal income ÷ money supply

where,

Nominal income is $3,000

and, the money supply is $500

Now put these values to the above formula so that we can find out the answer

So, the answer would be equal to

= $3,000 ÷ $500

= 6

Thus, the velocity of money is 6

Hence, the correct option is c.6
