Answer:

  • If the allowance method had been used, net income would have been $81,900.
  • With 1.75% of sales, if the write-off above had been recorded against the allowance account, it would have been in debit, so the bad debt expense would be $10,400 + $11,375 = $21,775. Otherwise, bad debt expense would be $11,375. The required journals would be a debit to bad debt expense and credit to allowance for doubtful accounts.

Explanation:

The following journals would have been recorded for write-off of the accounts receivables:

Debit Bad debt expense                  $10,400

Credit Accounts receivable              $10,400

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

This journal would have negatively affected the net income by reducing it. If it was recorded against the allowance for doubtful accounts, net income would have increased by $10,400 ($71,500 + $10,400).

1.75% of sales is $11,375; so, if the write-off above had been recorded against the allowance account, it would have been in debit, so the bad debt expense would be $10,400 + $11,375 = $21,775. Otherwise, bad debt expense would be $11,375. The required journals would be a debit to bad debt expense and credit to allowance for doubtful accounts.

astraxan [27]

Answer:

<u>The actual direct labor hours are 45,000.</u>

<u>The overhead rate for Year 2 is $1.74.</u>

Explanation:

Compute the actual direct labor hours:

\begin{aligned}\text{Actual direct labor hours}&=\dfrac{\text{Applied overheads}}{\text{Overhead rate}}\\&=\dfrac{\$76,500}{1.7}\\&=45,000\end{aligned}

<u>Therefore, the actual direct labor hours are 45,000.</u>

Compute the overhead rate for Year 2:

\begin{aligned}\text{Overhead rate}&=\dfrac{\text{Actual overheads}}{\text{Actual direct labor hours}}\\&=\dfrac{\$78,300}{45,000}\\&=1.74\end{aligned}

<u>Therefore, the overhead rate for Year 2 is $1.74.</u>

<u />

Working note:

Calculate the overhead rate for Year 1:

\begin{aligned}\text{Overhead rate}&=\dfrac{\text{Budgeted overheads}}{\text{Estimated direct labor hours}}\\&=\dfrac{\$74,800}{44,000}\\&=1.7\end{aligned}
