Using the following categories, indicate the effects of the following transactions. Indicate the accounts affected and the amounts. (Enter any decreases to account balances with a minus sign.) a. During the period, customer balances are written off in the amount of $11,600.
b. At the end of the period, bad debt expense is estimated to be $9,600.

Note: See the attached excel for the Indication of the effects of the two transactions.

Explanation:

From the attached excel file, we have:

a. During the period, customer balances are written off in the amount of $11,600.

Assets increase as the Allowance for doubtful accounts increases by $11,600; but Assets also decreases at the same as Accounts receivable decreases by $11,600.

b. At the end of the period, bad debt expense is estimated to be $9,600.

Assets decrease as the Allowance for doubtful accounts decreases by $9,600; and Stockholders' Equity also decreases as Bad debt expense increases by $9,600.

bd = 9 cm

step-by-step explanation:

in a 30°-60°-90° triangle, the ratio of side lengths is 1 : √3 : 2. that is, the longest side (hypotenuse) is twice the length of the shortest side.

all of the triangles in your geometry are 30°-60°-90° triangles. ac is the hypotenuse of δacd, and the short side of δabc.

the short side ad of δacd will be half the length of ac, so 3 cm. the hypotenuse ab of δabc will be twice the length of ac, so 12 cm. segment bd is the difference of the lengths ab and ad, so is

bd = ab -ad

bd = 12 cm - 3 cm = 9 cm

comment on side length ratios

you can figure the ratios of side lengths in a 30°-60°-90° triangle by considering the trig ratios of the angles. or you can figure the length of the altitude of an equilateral triangle of side length 2 using the pythagorean theorem.
