Palm Company gathered the following reconciling information in preparing its April bank reconciliation: Cash balance per books, 4/30 $4,300 Deposits in transit 150 Notes receivable and interest collected by bank 850 Bank charge for check printing 20 Outstanding checks 2,000 NSF check 170 The adjusted cash balance per the books on April 30 is a.$2,280. b.$4,960. c.$3,110. d.$2,450.
Answer:
$4960
Explanation:
Given that:
Cash balance per books, 4/30 $4300
Deposits in transit 150
Notes receivable and interest collected by bank 850
Bank charge for check printing 20
Outstanding checks 2,000
NSF check 170
The adjusted cash balance per the books on April 30 can be calculated by the expression:

Adjusted cash balance per the books = $4300 + 850 - 20 - 170
Adjusted cash balance per the books = $5150 - 190
Adjusted cash balance per the books = $4960

Kansas Enterprises purchased equipment for $81,000 on January 1, 2021. The equipment is expected to have a five-year service life, with a residual value of $7,500 at the end of five years.
Using the straight-line method, depreciation expense for 2021 would be:_________.
Answer:
Depreciation expense for 2021 will be $14700
Explanation:
The straight line method charges a constant depreciation expense each period throughout the useful life of the asset. The depreciation expense per period under the straight line method is calculated as follows,
Depreciation expense = (Cost - Residual value) / Useful life of the asset
Depreciation expense = (81000 - 7500) / 5
Depreciation expense = $14700
Q 8.38: The financial statements of the Robertson Company report net sales of $400,000 and accounts receivable of $40,000 and $20,000 at the beginning of the year and end of year, respectively. What is the accounts receivable turnover for Robertson
Answer:
13.33 times
Explanation:
The computation of the accounts receivable turnover ratio is given below:
Account receivable turnover ratio = Net credit sales ÷ Average accounts receivable
where,
Net credit sales is $400,000
And, the Average accounts receivable would be
= (Accounts receivable, beginning of year + Accounts receivable, end of year) ÷ 2
= ($40,000 + $20,000) ÷ 2
= $30,000
So, the account receivable turnover ratio is
= $400,000 ÷ 30,000
= 13.33 times
A standard work year is 2080 hours at the Luther Mill and it takes about 2 hours to fill a customer order. The manager at the mill is always concerned about employee idle time, so he aims for a capacity cushion of two percent. Last year saw 15,000 customer orders at the mill and the manager has a new Mercedes in mind as a company car, so he hopes that there is an increase of 10% in customer orders for next year. How many workers will the manager need to have at the mill next year
Answer:
16 workers
Explanation:
current demand = 15,000 customers x 2 hours per customer = 30,000 hours
we add the 2% cushion = 30,000 x 1.02 = 30,600 hours
if sales increase by 10% next year, next year's demand = 30,600 x 1.1 = 33,660 hours
33,660 hours / 2,080 hours per employee = 16.18 employees, which we should round to 16

Trina's property is listed with Avalon Homes. The market is a little slow, and Trina's listing is a high-end home, where sales are even slower. She's had several showings, but no offers. The term of the listing agreement is nearly over. What happens when the termination date is reached?
Answer: Listing expires and terminated
Explanation: In the scenario above, Avalon homes only serves to aid the sale of Trina's property and as such will not be held liable for any offense if the property isn't sold within the listing period.
