Answer:
July 24 Cash $1470 Dr
Discount allowed $30 Dr
Account Receivable $1500 Cr
Explanation:
The receipt of payment for accounts due will cause a credit to accounts receivable for that particular debtor along with a debit to cash as payment is received. However, as there were some sales returns, the outstanding amount in the accounts receivble account was sales less sales returns that is 3100 - 1600 = 1500.
The terms state 2/10, n/30 which means 2% cash discount is allowed if payment is made within 10 days of sale. The payment is made within 10 days, as July 24 falls under this period so cash received will be 1500 * 98% = 1470.
While Accounts recevables will be reduced by 1500. The difference of 30 is discount allowed and it is an expense and will be debitted.
If demand changes greatly with a small change in price, we say the demand is elastic.
Answer: B) The longer the cash cycle, the more likely a company will need external financing.
Explanation:
The cash cycle refers to the amount of time it would take a company to be able to convert the goods that it has in inventory to actual cash. If this cycle is long, then the company will have less cash than it needs because it is not raising cash fast enough.
To be able to fund operations therefore, the company might be forced to seek external financing.
