The following exercise will help you identify how business owners function within the different stages of retailing. The wheel o

f retailing describes how new forms of retail outlets enter the market. Usually, they enter as low-status, low- margin stores such as a drive-in hamburger stand with no indoor seating and a limited menu. Gradually, these outlets add fixtures and more embellishments to their stores (in-store seating, plants, and chicken sandwiches, as well as hamburgers) to increase the attractiveness for customers. With these additions, prices and status rise. As time passes, these outlets add still more services and their prices and status increase even further. These retail outlets now face some new form of retail outlet that again appears as a low-status, low-margin operator and the wheel of retailing to as the cycle starts to repeat itself.
As defined by the Wheel of Retailing, rank the following items in their positions on the wheel as time passes.
a) Rank the options below. Haute Mexican-To serve the customers seeking a fine dining experience, Maria opens an upscale, stand-alone, expensive restaurant serving haute cuisine.
b) Joe's Burrito Box-Recognizing an opportunity to sell low-price, no-frills lunches, Joe's Burrito Box sells boxed burrito lunches out of a mobile cart on Main Street.
c) Maria's Taco Stand-First to introduce Mexican food to the market, Maria opens a no-frills taco stand offering budget meals.
d) Maria's Mexican Restaurant-As Maria's Mexican food grows in popularity, Maria opens a restaurant in the local mall. The restaurant offers a wider menu, sit-down dining, and higher prices.

kogti [31]

Answer:

Bad debt expense  $ 26,300

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts   $ 26,300

Explanation:

Initial Balance  

Accounts Receivable  $ 121,000

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts   $ 2,100 - Debit

Bad Debts Expense =  20% / Accounts Receivable $ 24,200

Adjusting Entry

Bad debt expense  $ 26,300

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts   $ 26,300

Final Balance  

Accounts Receivable  $ 121,000

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts   $ 24,200 - Credit

Accounts Uncollectible are those credit that the company give and there are not chances of been collected.

When the customers buy products on credits but then the company can't collect the debt, then it's necessary to write off the unpaid bill as uncollectible

One way it's to write-off directly the bad debts at the moment decided that the credit are uncollectible, the total amount it's reported as bad debt expenses which affect negativly the income statement and the accounts receivable are reduce in the same amount, less assets.

The other way it's to determine a percentage of total amount of accounts receivables as uncollectible, exist many ways to analize the accounts receivable and figure the value of uncollectible.

When the company have the percentage of uncollectible accounts the journal entry required is Bad Expenses (debit) with Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (credit)

At the moment of the write-off as the expenses were before recognized we only use the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (Debit) with Accounts Receivable (Credit), with this we are recognizing the uncollectible credit of the company.

Trade payable                 $300

Cash                                                           $300                              

Explanation:

First we have to reverse the wrong journal entry which has been made by the inexperienced bookkeeper in the Adams Company accounts:

                                      Debit                  Credit

Trade payable                 $300

Cash                                                           $300                              

Now we have to record the correct journal entry in the accounts of Adam Company in respect of account settlement with supplier which is given as follow:

                                      Debit                  Credit

Trade payable                 $300

Cash                                                           $300

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

7.92%

Explanation:

The computation of the return on total assets is shown below:

Return on assets = (Net income) ÷ (average of total assets)

where,  

Net income is $2,100

Average total assets = (Beginning total assets + ending total assets) ÷ 2

= ($33,500 + $19,500) ÷ 2

= $26,500

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the ratio would equal to

= $2,100 ÷ $26,500

= 7.92%
