Explanation / Answer

1) Cost of Sales = Cash sales +Credit sales -sales return and allowances -sales discount - gross profit

Cost of sales = 1350000-90000-43000 =1217000

=1217000+450000 = 1667000

total sales -gross profit = cost of sales

=1667000-1360000 = $307000

3) Accounts Receivable = 1100000

5 % is uncollectible so 5% of 1100000 = $5500

Allowance for doubtfull debts = $1200

bad debts = 5500-1200= $4300

the correct option is D

4) Income from operations will decrease.

5) C. The journal entry to write-off an uncollectible account receivable decreases operating income.

6) CAsh received form collection of Accounts Receivable = credit sales +beginnig Accounts Recievable -ending Accounts receivable -Accounts receivable write offs

=900000+150000-210000-11500 = $828500
