Near the end of 2010, the ledger of Stivers Company included the following accounts and balances: Allowance for Doubtful Account

Minchanka [31]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the balances of the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, Bad Debt Expense and Accounts Receivable is shown below;

For Accounts receivable

a) Opening balance $200,000 Debit balance

b) Current year credit sales (75% of $800,000) $600,000 Debit balance

c) (-) Current collection from accounts receivables -$450,000 Credit balance

d) (-) Bad debt expenses -$11,000 Credit balance

e) Closing balance of accounts receivables $339,000 Debit balance

for Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Allowance required as per Current year analysis (2% of (75% of $800,000) $12,000 Credit balance

(-) Opening balance $1,000 Credit balance

$11,000 Credit balance

The journal entry is

Bad debt expense a/c …Dr 11000

To Allowance for Doubtful Accounts 11000

The Closing balance of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts 12000 Credit balance

For Bad debt expenses

The journal entry is

Bad debt expense a/c …Dr 11000

To Allowance for Doubtful Accounts 11000

The Closing balance of Bad debt expense account 0

"Moccasin Company manufactures cotton shirts. 12,000 shirts are produced during the first week of July. The unit quantity standa

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

<em>The answer is 72,000 Meters.</em>

Explanation:

From the question given, let us recall:

Moccasin Company produces cotton shirts. =12,000

The unit quantity standard = 6 meters

The quantity used actually was = 0.50 meters per shirt

The next step is to determine the quantity of cloth that should be used for the actual output of 12,000 shirts.

Quantity of cloth that should be used

= 12,000 * 6 meters cloth per shirt

= 72,000 Meters

Poland's Paints allocates overhead based on machine hours. Selected data for the most recent year follow.Estimated MOH $238,000A

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

B.) $11.90

Explanation:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate are based on the estimates made by the company.

So the calculation should be:

Estimated MOH of $238,000<em> divided by</em> Estimated Machine Hours of 20,000.

Giving us the result of $11.90

(238,000 / 20,000 = 11.90)

Melissa invests $37,000 today in a savings account that pays 4 percent interest compounded annually. She wants to know the total

MissTica

Answer:

a. N = 7, I/Y = 4, PV = -37,000

Explanation:

In financial calculator % is already written in the calculator so we have to write only number in calculator.

Option b incorrect because it has included a number with % ( 4% ) sign that we dint do usually in calculator.

Option c is incorrect because it has taken pv as positive

Option d is incorrect because it has written 4% that we don't put in calculator as well as it has inserted positive pv which is also wrong.

For the following demand equation compute the elasticity of demand and determine whether the demand is elastic, unitary, or inel

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Note: While answering this question, there is a confusion as to whether the correct demand equation is p= 157 − x2 as it appears in the question, or p= 157 − x^2 which is suspected to be the correct equation. Whichever the case may be, answers are provided for the two equations. Just confirm from the original question or your teacher which one is correct and pick the relevant answer out of the two following answers:

1. If p= 157 − x2 is the correct equation:

Elasticity of demand = - 0.15

Since -0.15 in absolute term |-0.15| is less than 1, the demand is inelastic.

2. If p= 157 − x^2 is the correct equation:

Elasticity of demand = - 0.28

Since -0.28 in absolute term |-0.28| is less than 1, the demand is also inelastic.

Explanation:

Elasticity of demand is the degree of responsive of quantity demanded of a good to change in its price.

For this question, elasticity of demand can be computed using the formula for calculating the elasticity of demand as follows:

1. If p= 157 − x2 is the correct equation

E = Elasticity of demand = (p / x) * (dx / dp) ............................... (1)

From the question, we have:

p = 157 − x2.

Therefore, we solve for as follows:

x2 = 157 - p

x = (157 - P) / 2

x = 78.5 - 0.5p ....................................................... (2)

Differentiating equation (2) with respect to p, we have:

dx/dp = -0.5

Substituting values for dx/dp and x into equation (1), we have:

E = [p / (78.5 - 0.5p)] * (-0.5)

Since p = 20, we have:

E = [20 / (78.5 - (0.5 * 20))] * (-0.5)

E = [20 / (78.5 - 10)] * (-0.5)

E = − 0.15

Since -0.15 in absolute term |-0.15| is less than 1, the demand is inelastic.

2. If p = 157 − x^2 is the correct equation

E = (p / x) * (dx / dp) ............................................ (1)

From the question, we have:

p = 157 − x^2.

Therefore, we solve for as follows:

x = 157^(1/2) – p^(1/2)

x = 157^0.5 – p^0.5 ........................................... (2)

Differentiating equation (2) with respect to p, we have:

dx/dp = -0.5p^(-0.5) = -0.5/p^0.5

Substituting values for dx/dp and x into equation (1), we have:

E = (p / x) * (dx / dp)

E = [p / (157^0.5 – p^0.5)] * [ -0.5/p^0.5]

Since p = 20, we have:

E = [20 / (157^0.5 – 20^0.5)] * [–0.5/20^0.5]

E = - 0.28

Since -0.28 in absolute term |-0.28| is less than 1, the demand is inelastic.
