Answer:

$60,500

Explanation:

With regards to the above, the write off does not affect the realizable value of accounts receivables. Also, the total asset or net income is not affected by the write off or specific account. Instead, both assets and net income are affected in the period when bad debt expense is predicted and then recorded with an adjusting entry.

Accounts receivables

$550,000

Less:

Allowance for doubtful account

($550,00 × 2.5%)

($13,750)

Estimated realizable accounts receivables

$536,250

If the amount of bad debt decreases or increases as given below, then the income is also increased or decreased by the amount given.

Bad debts = $13,750

Uncollectible previously written off = $8,800

Difference

$4,950

Net income

$60,500

Less:

Difference

($4,950)

Reported income

$55,550

At the current prices of goods X and Y, the quantity demanded of good X is 10 units, and the quantity demanded of good Y is 5 un
damaskus [11]

Answer:

When the price of good y increases by 10% it will result in the quantity demanded of x to increase by (0.6*10) =6%. The current quantity demanded of good x is 10 so a 6% increase will mean the quantity demanded of x will be (1.06*10)= 10.6

Explanation:

The cross elasticity of goods x and y is 0.6, which means that a one percent increase in price of good y will increase the demand for good x by 0.6%, this means that x and y are substitute goods, as when the price of y increases people tend to buy more of x.

When the price of good y increases by 10% it will result in the quantity demanded of x to increase by (0.6*10) =6%. The current quantity demanded of good x is 10 so a 6% increase will mean the quantity demanded of x will be (1.06*10)= 10.6

If a bond's yield to maturity is less than its coupon rate, the bond will sell at a _____, and increases in market interest rate
KiRa [710]

If a bond's yield to maturity is less than its coupon rate, the bond will sell at a premium, and increases in market interest rates will decrease this premium.

If the bond's coupon rate is lower than YTM, the bond will be sold at a discounted price. If the bond's coupon rate is higher than its YTM, the bond is sold at a premium. If the bond's coupon equals YTM, the bond is sold at face value.

If the coupon is higher than the yield, investors should expect the bond's capital value to fall over the remaining term. Therefore, the price of the bond must be higher than its face value. If the bond's coupon rate is lower than its lifetime, the bond's price increases over its remaining lifetime.

If the interest rate falls below the coupon, the bond can be sold at a premium above face value. Interest rates on bonds vary according to prevailing interest rates and perceived risks of the issuer. Suppose he has a 10-year bond for $5,000 with a 5% coupon.
