Team cohesiveness does not necessarily lead to higher team productivity.
LuckyWell [14K]
This statement is true - only because a team is cohesive doesn't mean that it is going to be very productive.
This doesn't only depend on the team itself, but also on the relationship between management and the working team. The team has the potential to be very productive, but it will depend on this relationship I mentioned. If it's good, they are likely to be productive, and vice versa.

Shore Co. provides for doubtful accounts based on 4% of credit sales. The following data are available for 2014.
laiz [17]

Answer:

The balance in Allowance for Doubtful Accounts at December 31, 2014 is $96,916 and the required bad debt expense is $101,116, journalized as follows:

Debit Bad debt expense                                    $101,116

Credit Allowance for doubtful accounts           $101,116

<em>(To record bad debt expense for the year)</em>

Explanation:

Let's journalize the transactions that occurred in 2014 as follows:

Debit Accounts receivable                           $2,422,900

Credit Sale revenue                                      $2,422,900

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

Debit Accounts receivable                                   $9,200

Credit Allowance for doubtful accounts              $9,200

<em>(To re-eastblish sales on account previously written off)</em>

Debit Cash                                                             $9,200

Credit Accounts receivable                                  $9,200

<em>(To record collections on account previously written off)</em>

Debit Allowance for doubtful accounts               $31,500

Credit Accounts receivable                                  $31,500

<em>(To write-off accounts receivable that is uncollectible)</em>

Since Shore Co. adopts 4% of credit sales. This translates to 4% x $2,422,900 = $96,916. The effects of the journals above on the opening balance of the allowance for doubtful accounts is $18,100 + $9,200 - $31,500 = $4,200 (debit). Bad debt expense is therefore $101,116 ($4,200 + $96,916).
