Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

B) quota

Explanation:

A quota is a trade constraint imposed by government, which confines a nation's import or export within a certain period, or the amount or monetary value of the products. Nations use quotas to control trading volumes between them and the other nations in global trade. A tariff would put taxation on the Chinese's exports and it doesn't favour them.

To raise operating funds, North American Courier Corporation sold its building on January 1, 2021, to an insurance company for $

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

North American Courier Corporation

1. Appropriate Entries:

Jan. 1, 2021:

Debit Cash Account $503,000

Credit Building $500,000

Credit Gain on Sale-Leaseback $3,000

To derecognize the asset and recognize the gain on the sale-leaseback.

Dec. 31, 2021:

Debit Lease Rental $89,023

Credit Cash Account $89,023

To account for the lease rental for the year.

Note: This treatment is in accordance with ASC 842 and not IFRS 16, which has withdrawn the concepts of operating and finance (capital) leases. The treatment under IFRS 16 is quite different.

Explanation:

A transaction qualifies for sale and leaseback accounting under ASC 840 when an entity has determined if the transfer of the underlying asset meets the definition of a sale under ASC 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The two key criteria which can be used by an entity to determine this, are as follows:

1. Does a contract exists; and

2. Has control of the asset been transferred?

We believe that the criteria are met. Since this transaction qualifies for sale and leaseback accounting under the old ASC 840, the accounting for the Seller-lessee (North American Courier Corporation) is:

1. Recognize transaction price (determined under ASC 606) when buyer-lessor obtains control, adjusted for any off-market terms

2. Derecognize the carrying amount of the underlying asset

3. Recognize gain or loss in full, subject to any off-market terms

4. Account for the (operating) lease in accordance with ASC 840.

Which of the following statements are correct with regards to a change in a company's sales mix? (check all that apply)- A chang

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The answers are:

A change in sales mix from high-margin to low-margin items may cause total profits to decrease despite an increase in total sales.
A change in sales mix from low-margin to high-margin items may cause total profits to increase despite a decrease in total sales.

Explanation:

A company's profit is affected by its sales mix. Profits will always be higher if high margin products or services make up a large proportion of the sales mix. Even if total sales decrease, due to a decrease in the sales of low margin products, the company's profits might increase if more high margin products are sold.

For example, a Ford sells mostly pick up trucks, SUVs and cars. The profit margin from car sales is very low, so in order to make a larger profit the company must focus on selling more pick up trucks and SUVs. Even if the company losses market share by not selling cars, it will make more money by selling high margin products.
