vekshin1

Answer:

The opportunity cost of that decision is - $250,000

Explanation:

For computing the opportunity cost, we have to use the formula of opportunity cost which is shown below:

= Return of project which is not chosen - the return of a chosen project

= $750,000 - $1,000,000

= - $250,000

Since in the question, it is given that the chosen project is X so we write the project X amount in the formula and the not chosen project of-course is Y.

Hence, the opportunity cost of that decision is - $250,000

In the balance sheet at the end of its first year of operations, Dinty Inc. reported an allowance for uncollectible accounts of
Vlada [557]

Answer:

The correct option is 2. $50,200

Explanation:

Please see below the required journals for the transactions that occurred:

Debit Allowance for doubtful accounts             $31,800

Credit Accounts receivable                                $31,800

(<em>To record write-off of accounts receivable)</em>

Debit Accounts receivable                           $2,340,000

Credit Sales revenue                                    $2,340,000

<em>(To record credit sales during the year)</em>

Debit Cash                                                      $1,910,000

Credit Accounts receivable                           $1,910,000

<em>(To record collection on account)</em>

  • The effect of the above journals on allowance for doubtful account is a reduction. Since Dinty already assessed its allowance for doubtful account to be $82,000, bad debt expense required will be $50,200 ($82,000 - $31,800).
  • The balance in accounts receivable will be $2,340,000 - $1,910,000 - $31,800 = $398,200.
