Answer:
If the money wage rate increased from $40.00 to 45.24 and hour and consumer prices rose by 16%, we would expect _______ people to try to find a job and employed people to want to work _______ hours.
a. more; longer.
The____ would _____. 
b. quantity of labor supplied; increase.
Explanation:
Generally, when wage rates increase, this will led to an increase in the inflation rate. The problem is what happens if wages increase less than the inflation rate. This means that real wages will actually decrease once we adjust them to inflation. This will cause more people trying to get a job or working longer hours just to be able to pay for the same amount of goods as before. 
In this example, the wage rate increased by 13.1%, but the inflation rate increased by 16%, so real wages decreased. 
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
The adjustment to record bad debts for the period will be:
Debit Bad debt expense ($20,000 - $3,000)                    $17,000
Credit Allowance for doubtful accounts                            $17,000
<em>(Bad debt expense required)</em>
Explanation:
Bicylce Company adopts the aging of accounts receivable method. The aging of accounts receivable is a criterion for apportioning the balance in the accounts receivable into different buckets (aging), for example: Not due, 1 - 30 days, 30 - 60 days, over 60 days, based on historical information and assigning a credit loss percentage to each bucket.
Since the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts has a $3,000 credit, to calculate the required bad debt expense, we need to back out this amount from the amount that is deemed uncollectible, that is $20,000 - $3,000 = $17,000.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer: Bar codes
Explanation:
A barcode is a way of representing data in a machine-readable and visual form. In the past, barcodes illustrated data by placing the parallel lines at intervals and altering the widths. Nowadays, barcodes known as one-dimensional (1D) or linear are scanned by optical scanners. Also, the two-dimensional (2D) barcodes were manufactured using dots, rectangles, hexagons and some geometric patterns, known as matrix barcodes. Barcodes are used for the tracking of products.
