Answer:
$4,038
Explanation:
Present value (PV) is the current value of a future sum of money or stream of cash flows given a specified rate of return. Future cash flows are discounted at the discount rate, and the higher the discount rate, the lower the present value of the future cash flows.
Present Value = Future Value x (1/ ( 1 + interest rate ) ^ number of periods)
Present Value = 6,000 x (1/ ( 1 + 0.08) ^ 5)
Present Value = 6,000 x 0.68058
Present Value = $4,038

Answer: $5,440
Explanation:
When using the percent of sales method to determine bad debts, the company estimates a percentage that it believes will results in uncollectible debt and then applies it to the sales/revenue figure. The figure that is calculated is then debited along with the debit balance on the Allowance for doubtful accounts to the Bad debts account for the year and credited to the Allowance for doubtful accounts.
This company estimates that they will have 0.6% of credit sales uncollectible.
There are also $790,000 in sales of which all are on credit.
The Uncollectible estimate is therefore,
= 790,000 * 0.6%
= $4,740
This figure is then added to the debit amount on the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts.
= 4,470 + 700
= $5,440
Note; A debit balance on the Allowance for doubtful debt account signifies that the bad debts were higher than anticipated the last time. This is why the figure is added to the current bad debts expense.
