Answer:
Entry: 1. Dr bad debts expense 5500
Cr Allowance for uncollectible accounts 5500
Explanation:
1.Account receivable = $44000
Allowance for uncollectible accounts(Dec,31 2021) = $1100
44000* 15% = 6600 - 1100 = $5500 Allowance for uncollectible accounts
2. Bad debts expense = (44000* 15%) = 6600
3. Uncollecible accounts = (Open) Allowance for bad debts + Current year Allowance.
= 1100 + 6600 = $7700.
4. 44000 - 7700 = $36300 net account receiable

<u>Analysis of the effect of discontinuing Product Line C</u>
Income :
Rent Income $6,000
Savings : Fixed Costs - Avoidable $3,000
Total Income $9,000
Costs :
Opportunity Cost - Contribution Margin $4,500

By discontinuing Product Line C, operating income for the company will likely Increase by $4,500
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below
1. The adjusted balance in the retained earning is shown below:
= beginning balance of retained earning + adjusted net income
where,
beginning balance of retained earning is $860,000
And, the adjusted net income is
= $68,000 × (1 - 0.35)
= $44,200
So, the adjusted balance in the retained earning is
= $860,000 + $44,200
= $904,200
2. Now the journal entry is
Inventory $68,000
To Retained earning $44,200
To Tax payable $23,800 ($68,000 × 35%)
(Being the adjustment of ending inventory is recorded)
It increased the inventory and along with it it also increased the equity and liabilities so the respective account is debited and credited
Answer:
The answer is expectancy.
Explanation:
Expectancy theory is a concept developed by Victor H. Vroom in 1964, where he postulated, that the strength an individual has in terms of his or her motivation to do an action, would appear when three components are satisfied to a certain value: expectancy, instrumentality, and valence. The question above is relevant to the expectancy component, which is detailed as the belief that an individual has regarding their efforts would result in the individual choosing to perform an action. In the case of Martha, she wasn’t sure that her efforts in trying to win the contract would lead to her 10% raise (outcome, a component of instrumentality), and thus, she decided not to try.
