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.

Agile project management is superior to traditional project management in which of the following situations?
OleMash [197]

Answer:

The correct answer is (d) when you have a small, experienced team assigned to work on the project .

Explanation:

Agile project management is a project management methodology that is defined by its signature iterative and incremental approach to achieving requirements throughout the project life cycle. Its particularly suited for small dynamic projects and relies heavily on teamwork.

Traditional project management is a project methodology that emphasizes on a sequential predetermined approach to the project life cycle. The procedures to be followed throughout every phase of the project's life is already laid out. Changes to the laid down plan are not anticipated.This project management style is preferred  for larger projects.

In conclusion,when you have a small, experienced team assigned to work on the project  then you should utilize the agile project management style. Since the team is small, they are more suited to handle a smaller or medium project and  will have to rely more on their teamwork to ensure project success. A traditional project management approach would require a bigger team whose experience wouldn't add any substantial edge since the project plan is already laid out. Additionally, a traditional project management approach is inherently personnel intensive, whereas the available personnel is smaller.
