Answer:

Option A,$72000

Explanation:

Bad debt expense is computed on the net  credit sales amount, in other words, the bad debt expense is 12% of credit sales of $600,000.

Bad debt expense=$600,000*12%

                               =$72000

Option C is wrong because the answer was arrived at by calculating 12% of $750,000 the net sales amount that also has cash sales of $150,000 included in it($750000-$600000)

Option B is wrong as the amount of sales returns and allowances of $50,000 was deducted from $600,000 prior to applying 12% allowance for bad debt

An individual is now 50 years old, that he plans to retire in 10 years, and that he expects to live for 25 years after he retire
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Ans.  He must save during each of the following 10 years, at the end of each year $32,452.

Explanation:

Hi, in order to find the amount of money that he should have in ten years so he can receive an annual payment of $65,156 for 25 more years (24 payments), we need to bring to present value all 24 payments to year 10. Let me show you the formula.

PresentValue_{10} =\frac{A((1+r)^{n}-1) }{r(1+r)^{n} }

Where:

A= $65,156

n= 24

r= 0.08

Therefore the present value in year 10 is:

PresentValue_{10} =\frac{65,156((1+0.08)^{24}-1) }{0.08(1+0.08)^{24} }=686,012

So that is our present value in year 10, or to put it in other words, our future value (if we look at it from year 0). Now we need to find the annuity (amount to save) that with account for $686,012, plus that $100,000 that he already has saved.

Every should look like this.

686,012=100,000*(1+0.08)^{10} +\frac{A((1+0.08)^{10}-1) }{0.08(1+0.08)^{10} }

And we solve this equation for "A".

686,012=A(14.4865625)+215,892

A=\frac{(686,012-215,892)}{14.4865625} =32,452

Best of luck.
