Answer:

Wei Company

Journal Entry:

Debit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $7,800

Credit Accounts Receivable $7,800

To write-off accounts determined to be uncollectible.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts (Balance) = $35,000

Uncollectible accounts:

Oakley Co. $1,400

Brookes Co. $6,400

Total = $7,800

b) The amount of $7,800 considered to be uncollectible is written off against the Accounts Receivable.  This reduces the Accounts Receivable while correspondingly increasing the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts.

A company uses the percent of sales method to determine its bad debts expense. At the end of the current year, the company's una
ValentinkaMS [17]

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.

A bakery buys sugar in 15-pound bags. The bakery uses 5000 bags of sugar each year. Carrying costs are $20 per bag per year. Ord
Marianna [84]

Answer:

the total cost of ordering and holding sugar is $1,000 per year

Explanation:

<em>Step 1 Calculate the Economic Order Quantity(EOQ).</em>

EOQ = √(2×Total Demand×Ordering cost)/ Holding Cost per Unit

        = √(2×250×20×5)/20

        = 50

<em>Step 2 Calculate the total  cost of ordering and holding sugar</em>

Total cost = Ordering Cost + Holding Cost

                = (250×20)/50 × $5 + 50/2 × $20

                = $500+$500

                = $1,000

Therefore,  the total cost of ordering and holding sugar is $1,000 per year

Free cash flow is projected to be $80,000 and $100,000 for the next 2 years, respectively; after the second year, FCF is expected to grow at a constant rate of 10%. The company's weighted average cost of capital is 18%. What is the terminal, or horizon, value of operations

 Terminal value   = $1,783,333.33

Explanation:

Terminal value = FCF3/(WACC � g2)

FCF3 = FCF2 x 1.07 = $100,000 x 1.07 ? $107,000

      = $107,000/(.13 - .07)

      Terminal value = $1,783,333.33

Keith_Richards [23]
