All sales are made on credit. Based on past experience, the company estimates 1% of credit sales to be uncollectible. What adjus

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

Debit : Bad Debts account : $2000 (appearing in the income statement)

Credit : Provision for doubtful debts account : $2000 (appearing in the balance sheet)

Explanation:

This is an example of provision for doubtful debts. Provision for doubtful debts is an estimated amount of bad debts from accounts receivables that has been issues but not yet collected. This is done under the accrual accounting concept where an expense is identified as soon as invoices have been issued rather than waiting long periods to find out which invoice is irrecoverable. It is typically an estimate based on past experience.

In this question, the sales value has not been provided, hence an assumption is made:

Sales : $200,000

If provision for doubtful debts is 1% of sales and all sales is on credit, then the provision for doubtful debts amount is = 1% x $200,000 = $2000

Provision for doubtful debts is an accounts receivable contra account and thus has a credit balance and is recorded in the balance sheet, listed directly under accounts receivables.

The entry is recorded as:

Debit : Bad Debts account : $2000 (appearing in the income statement)

Credit : Provision for doubtful debts account : $2000 (appearing in the balance sheet)

Setting prices for products and services requires entrepreneurs to balance a multitude of complex forces as entrepreneurs determ

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

produce a profit

Explanation:

Price refers to the amount of money that is paid by one party to another to acquire a particular commodity or in return for unit of commodities. Some of the factors that determines the price of a commodity include cost of production, product demand, product supply, targeted profit, and among others.

A profit is the amount earned from selling a commodity minus the amount expended to purchase, operate, or produce the commodity.

The primary aim of an entrepreneur is to make a profit, and price setting is one of the important activities that influences a profit. Since the higher the price, the higher may be the profit. However, a higher price may also dicourage customers from buying a product and then reduces profit.

Therefore, setting prices for products and services requires entrepreneurs to balance a multitude of complex forces as entrepreneurs determine prices for their goods and services that will draw customers and produce a profit.

Cr Cash $3,600,000

2022

Dr Research and development expense 1,500,000

Dr Software and development costs 594, 000

Cr Cash 2,094,000

B. $148,500

Explanation:

1. Preparation of the journals entry

2021

Dr Research and development expense $3,600,000

Cr Cash $3,600,000

(To record the expenses incurred on research and development)

2022

Dr Research and development expense 1,500,000

Dr Software and development costs 594, 000

Cr Cash 2,094,000

(1,500,000+594,000)

(To record the software development costs incurred)

2.Calculatation for the amortization for 2022

Using percentage of revenues method

Amortization= Current revenue/Total revenue* Software development costs

Amortization=$1,560,000/$7, 800,000*$594,000

Amortization=0.2*$594,000

Amortization=$118,800

Using straight line method

Amortization =1/Useful life* Software devel opment costs

Amortization=1/4*$594,000

Amortization=$148,500

Based on the above calculation Tmte expense amounts under straight-line method is higher . Which means that , the amortization is $148,500.
