Answer: $520,000
Explanation:
A bad debt expense occurs when an economic entity which could be an individual or firm cannot collect a receivable because the said customer can't meet their obligations anymore.
The amount of bad debt expense recognized for the year will be the outstanding accounts receivable at year end multiplied by the percentage of uncollectible outstanding receivables. This will be:
= 8% × $6,500,000
= 8/100 × $6,500,000
= 0.08 × $6,500,000
= $520,000
Answer:
1) a. True
Rosa is almost always right when she knows that her company is a monopoly, i.e. has no competition, but is generally wrong when her company has to compete with other contractors. It is simple, a monopolist can decide which markup percentage to use, and can use a really high one, but when competition exists, markups are not so high and profits not so abundant. That is why she almost always gets it wrong when having to deal with other competitors.
2) a. False
The winner's curse usually happens when someone wins a bid over some contract or asset, but then they realize that the actual price of the contract or asset was lower than the bid. E.g. in an auction, two people are fighting over to see who buys an antique car which increases the price of the car way beyond the real market value. But it can also happen to a company that offers very low prices, and then after they won a contract, cannot perform properly because their actual costs are higher.
When a company makes an offer, they are certain about the price of the contract and they should know the value of the services or goods that they are offering. If Rosa underestimates her costs, and prepares her offer using unrealistically low costs, then she will probably win the bid but end up losing money.
The range for daily sales for the week, $89,000, $75,000, $98,000, $66,000, and $99,000, is ________. a. $33,000. b. $85,400. c.
Ann [662]
Answer:
$33,000
Explanation:
The daily sales for a particular week is given as follows: $89,000, $75,000, $98,000, $66,000, $99,000
Range can be defined as the difference between the highest value and the lowest value within a particular set of number
From the question above;
The highest value is $99,000
The lowest value is $66,000
Therefore, the range for the daily sales for the week can be calculated as follows
Range= Highest value-Lowest value
= $99,000-$66,000
= $33,000
Hence the range is $33,000
Answer:
The new Quantity to be sold at $1 is 200 in the short run
Explanation:
The question is to determine the Popsicle sold each day in the short run for a price rise of $1
The formula to use for the Price elasticity of supply in short run
(New Quantity demanded - Old Quantity demanded )/ Old Quantity + New Quantity/ 2
÷
(New Price - Old Price) / (Old Price + New Price)/ 2
The formula can also be simply written as
[(Q2 – Q1)/{(Q1 + Q2)/2}] / [(P2 – P1)/{(P1 + P2)/2}]
Step 2: Solve using the formula
Old Quantity = 100
New Quantity = Q2
Old Price = 0.50
New Price = $1
Solve:
[(Q2 – 100)/{(100+ Q2)/2}] / [(1 – 0.50)/{(0.50 + 1)/2}] = 1
=100 + Q2= 3Q2-300
= 2Q2= 400
Q2= 400/2
Q2= 200
The new Quantity to be sold at $1 is 200
Answer:
c. 99
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the forecast for period 11
Using this formula
Forecast for period 11=Forecast *Smoothing constant*Period 11 Forecast
Let plug in the formula
Forecast for period 11=90*.10*11
Forecast for period 11=99
Therefore the forecast for period 11 is 99
