Answer: $520,000

Explanation:

A bad debt expense occurs when an economic entity which could be an individual or firm cannot collect a receivable because the said customer can't meet their obligations anymore.

The amount of bad debt expense recognized for the year will be the outstanding accounts receivable at year end multiplied by the percentage of uncollectible outstanding receivables. This will be:

= 8% × $6,500,000

= 8/100 × $6,500,000

= 0.08 × $6,500,000

= $520,000

Answer: Import quota

Explanation:

Import quotas are a means of controlling trade into a country. It is usually done because the good being imported is produced in the importing country but when it is imported it is cheaper which will have the effect of harming the domestic producers.

Import quotas will restrict trade by limiting the amount of the specific good that can be imported into the country within a given period. For instance, the U.S. mandating that only 30,000 tonnes of sugar may come into the country in a year. After that amount, no more sugar will be allowed in.
