Answer:

37.9 days

Explanation:

Given that,

Net sales = $951,000

Beginning accounts receivables = $75,500

Ending accounts receivables = $122,000

Average accounts receivables:

= (Beginning accounts receivables + Ending accounts receivables) ÷ 2

= ($75,500 + $122,000) ÷ 2

= $98,750

Accounts Receivable Turnover:

= Net sales ÷ Average accounts receivables

= $951,000 ÷ $98,750

= 9.63

Average collection period:

= 365 days ÷ Accounts Receivable Turnover

= 365 days ÷ 9.63

= 37.9 days

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

option (c) $875 per year

Explanation:

Given;

Average cost of collision claims for careful drivers = $500 per year

Average cost of collision claims for for poor drivers = $3000 per year

Poor drivers known by the company = 15%

thus,

Careful drivers = (100% - 15%) = 85%

Therefore,

Insurance company's breakeven price for the collision insurance  

= (Poor drivers known × Average cost of collision for poor drivers ) +( Careful drivers × Average cost of collision claims for careful drivers)

= 0.15 × $3000 + 0.85 × $500

= $450 + $425

= $875 per year

Hence, the correct answer is option (c) $875 per year

Answer:

The fraud was discovered Option D: The operations manager found a check made payable to Phillips while searching Phillips' desk for some accounting records.

Explanation:

In the given case study, Ernie Phillips had got a job as a 'controller'. He had started writing checks to himself other than the payroll checks.

This fraud can be discovered when the operations manager found a check on Phillips desk which was payable to himself and it was other than the payroll check. Thus, Option D is the statement as an answer.

Cancelled checks do not have to do anything with the fraud, as per Option A, because cancelled checks are never cleared in the bank. The receiver doesn't usually receive a call before check clearance. So, Option B is also incorrect. No error was there in the check as stated in Option C.
