On December 31, Year 1, the Loudoun Corporation estimated that 3% of its credit sales of $112,500 would be uncollectible. Loudou
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. (3,375) = NA + (3,375) NA − 3,375 = (3,375) NA.

Explanation:

The question asks for the effect of the adjusting entry on December 31, Year 1, that is, the creation of the 3% allowance for uncollectible debts.

Allowance for bad debts = 3% x $112,500 = $3,375

Its effect is as follows.

Assets: Since accounts receivable (an asset) is reduced, assets are reduced  by $3,375.

Liabilities: No effect.

Equity: As Equity = Assets - Liabilities, the net effect is to reduce the equity by $3,375.

Revenue: No effect.

Expenses: Sales worth $3,375 is written off as an expense. Hence, total expenses increase by $3,375.

Net increase: As revenue remains unchanged while expenses increase by $3,375, the net increase is a negative of $3,375.

Cash flow: No effect, because there is no exchange of cash since the amount of $3,375 was never received by Loudoun Corporation.

These entries correspond to option B. which is thus the correct answer.

The current value of a property is $60,000. For real estate tax purposes, the property is assessed at 30 percent of its current
Damm [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

Current value, C = $60000

Assessed value, A = 30 percent of its current value

= 30% × C

Equalisation factor, E = 1.25

The tax rate is $4 per $100 of assessed valuation.

Assessed value, A = 30/100 × 60000

= $18000

Total assessed valuation = assessed value × E

= $18000 × 1.25

= $22500

Tax rate of $4/$100 × assessed valuation

Tax amount = tax rate × assessed valuation

= ($4 × $22500)/$100

= $900

Discuss briefly how each of the following changes would affect the natural rate of unemployment.
Mariana [72]

Answer:

a. Schools operate for the full year, so no students are looking for summer work.

This will cause that the total labor force decreases, so the natural rate of unemployment will decrease. The natural rate of unemployment includes only structural and frictional unemployment. Since no students will look for summer jobs, then frictional unemployment will decrease, therefore, total natural unemployment will decrease also.

b. The Internet lists all the jobs available in the whole country, so it is easier for job seekers to locate potential jobs.

This will help to decrease structural unemployment which will in turn decrease the natural rate of unemployment. Structural unemployment happens when an unemployed individual cannot find a job that fits his/her skills. Internet job postings will make it easier for unemployed people to find jobs that match their skills.

c. People who quit their jobs are drafted into low-wage community-service jobs.

This should reduce frictional unemployment (which reduces the natural rate of unemployment), since frictional unemployment is made up of people that quit their jobs in order to search a better job or are looking for their first job ever. If people realize that quitting their current jobs will result in them being drafted into low wage jobs, less people will quit their jobs. This doesn't mean that they will stop searching for a better, it means that they will continue searching for a better while still employed.

d. In addition to unemployment insurance, the unemployed receive a bonus for finding new jobs; the bonus is greater if the job is found in the first few weeks of search and declines with the duration of search.

This should motivate people to get any available job as quick as possible. Sometimes a person that is fired will not accept possible jobs because they consider that they can get a better job, so they decide to wait until they get the job that they want. If a bonus is given, a lot of people will be motivated to accept any new job that they can find as long as it allows them to collect the bonus. This doesn't mean that they will quit looking for their dram job or the job that they deserve, it means that they will be working while doing so. This should decrease the natural rate of unemployment.
