It is only option <em>D.  − = n/a − n/a + − n/a</em> that reflects the effect of the year-end adjusting entry for Uncollectible Accounts Expense when the allowance method is used.

The entry reduces Accounts Receivable (Assets) through its contra account (the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts).

It does not affect the liabilities.  It reduces Equity because it is an expense that reduces Retained Earnings.

The entry does not affect the Revenue but increases Expenses, which reduce the Net Income.

It is not a cash flow item and does not affect the Statement of Cash Flows.

Data and Options:

                                           Balance Sheet  Income Statement  Statement of

                                                                                                        Cash Flows

Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders' Equity  Revenue Expense = Net Income

A.  −     =      n/a             −                                    n/a           −             −       − OA

B.  n/a  =       −               −                                    n/a           +             −         n/a

C. n/a   =       −               −                                    n/a           +             −       − OA

D. −      =      n/a             −                                    n/a           +             −       n/a

The estimated <em>Uncollectible Accounts Expense</em> is Bad Debt Expense.  

When this year-end adjusting entry is recorded, the financial statements affected are only the Income Statement (expenses) and the Balance Sheet (equity).

Thus, the only correct reflection of the adjustment is option D.

Deffense [45]

Answer:

$810,000

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

The increase in fixed cost is

= Salary of each sales representative × number of sales representatives hired

=  $45,000 × 18

= $810,000

Now the increase in sales needed for break even is

= Increase in fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin ratio

= $810,000 ÷ 30%

= $2,700,000

As we know that break even sales is computed by dividing the fixed cost by the contribution margin ratio and we applied the same

initial investment $25,000

  • $29,000 loss ⇒ 15% x $5,000 = $750
  • $40,000 gain ⇒ 5% x $65,000 = $3,250
  • break even ⇒ 60% x $25,000 = $15,000

total expected value = $21,000
