Answer:

2017 Net Income = $53000

2018 Net Income = $87000

Explanation:

The overstatement of ending/closing inventory causes the Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) to be understated and the Gross and Net profit to be overstated by the same amount.

If the 2017 ending inventory was iverstated by $7000, the correct profit figure for 2017 will be $7000 less than is reported.

2017 correct Net Income = 60000 - 7000 = $53000

An overstatment of ending inventory in one year also means and overstatement of opening inventory of the next year. Thus, the 2018 opening inventory is overstated by $8000 and an overstatement of opening inventory means an overstatement of COGS and an understatement of Gross and Net Income by the same amount.

Thus, the correct Net Income for 2018 = 80000 + 7000 = $87000

posledela

Answer:

$17,000

Explanation:

The amount of credit balance is $18,000 which is then subtracted from the amount of Receivables which are written off which is $14,000. The difference of both the amounts is then subtracted from the allowance for uncollectible accounts which is required, the amount is $21,000.

Credit balance - Written off amount

$18,000 - $14,000 = $4000

Allowance for uncollectible accounts - $4,000

$21,000 - $4,000 = $17,000

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

D) Establish the mission, vision, and values statements

Explanation:

A mission statement is a short written description of what is the purpose of your company, or why does it exist. The mission statement usually includes the company's capabilities, what unsatisfied needs will the company satisfy, and activities will be carried out to satisfy their customers' needs.

The mission statement is the cause (before) and the vision statement is the effect (after). The vision statement should describe the long term goals that your company should accomplish. It serves as a guide to where you want to be in the future.

The value statements should describe how Jordan values his own business (including employees), his customers (including the community) and his suppliers. The values statements serve as a guide on how Jordan and his employees should behave within the business.

The measurement of earnings concept that consists of a company’s profit from operations after taxed are subtracted is ________.
babunello [35]

Answer:

Net Operating Profit After Taxes or NOPAT

Explanation:

NOPAT is calculated by substracting the tax expense from the revenue that the company obtains exclusively from its operating activities. This means that NOPAT does not include income from non operating activities like small investments or one time sales of capital goods.

NOPAT is a very important indicator in corporate finance, often used by analysts to gauge a company's true level of profitability. It is also an important element in the calculation of another important indicator, Economic Value Added or EVA.
