Answer:

Bad Debt Expense for 20x2 is $50,245

Explanation:

Note: The full question is attached as picture below

Ending balance = Beginning balance + Sales on account or credit sales - Cash collected - Uncollected accounts

Beginning balance of Accounts receivable (given) = $850000

Credit sales in 20X2 = 80% * $3125000 = $2500000

Cash collections (given) = $2400000

Uncollectible accounts (given) = $52100

Ending balance = $850000 + $2500000 - $2400000 - $52100 = $897900

Allowance required to be made for 20X2 = 5% of Accounts receivables ending balance on 20X2  = 5% * $897900 = $44895

First we will write off uncollectible accounts of $52100 from the beginning balance of allowance for uncollectible accounts. (Beginning balance of allowance for doubtful accounts = $46750 ).

Difference = Beginning balance of allowance account - Uncollectible accounts = $46750 - $52100 = - $5350

It means that there is a shortfall of $5350 in the allowance for doubtful accounts. And, also a total of $44895 should be there in the credit of Allowance for doubtful accounts at the end of 20X2.  Allowance needed in 20X2 = $44895 + $5350 = $50,245 . So, the Bad debt expense for 20X2 is $50,245.

Suppose that​ Roots' marginal cost of a jacket is a constant ​$100.00 and the total fixed cost at one of its stores is ​$1 comma
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

What is this​ store's average total cost of a jacket sold before the advertising begins and after the advertising begins.

before advertising costs increase:

marginal cost is constant, so we can state that the total variable costs are $100 per jacket

total fixed costs = $1,000 per day / 15 jackets = $66.67 per jacket

average total cost per jacket before increasing advertising expense = $100 + $66.67 =) $166.67

after advertising costs increase:

total variable costs are $100 per jacket

total fixed costs = $2,000 per day / 55 jackets = $36.36 per jacket

average total cost per jacket after increasing advertising expense = $100 + $36.36 =) $136.36

Can you say what happens to the price of a Roots​ jacket, Roots'​ markup, and​ Roots' economy?

Roots is experiencing economies of scale since average total cost per jacket decreased as the total number of jackets sold increased. But in order to sell that new amount of jackets, their price probably decreased. If the price hadn't changed, then the profit maximizing number of jackets sold per day would be close to 30, but it clearly isn't. That means that the company's markup decreased, but the company is now better off since it is maximizing its profits even though its expenses increased and the markup decreased.

Anastaziya [24]

Answer and Explanation:

The preparation of the vertical analysis is presented below:

Particulars       Amount           %      Amount    %

Sales                 $830,700 100      $634,900 100

Less:

Cost of goods sold $529,000 63.7    $415,000 65.4

Gross Profit          $301,700 36.3     $219,900 34.5

Less:

Selling Expenses $124,700 15.0       $73,600 11.6

administrative expenses $78,800 9.5   $53,900 8.5

Total Operating

expenses               $203,500 24.5 $127,500  20.9

Income before

income taxes         $98,200          11.8  $92,400  14.5

Less:

Income tax expenses $33,500 4.0    $23,400  3.7

Net Income               $64,700 7.8     $69,000 10.8

Working note

The percentage is like

= Items value ÷ sales × 100

Like for cost of goods sold

= $529,000 ÷ $830,700 × 100

= 63.68%

It is same applicable for other items also
