Explanation / Answer

a) The company could only account for 1,20,000$ out of (3,00,000 - 1,00,000) = 2,00,000 $ for disposal.

Thus, it has $80,000 loss at disposal.


b) assuming simple interest,

P*N*R / 100 = Interest

P= ?

N = 90 days = 3 months = 0.25 year

R = 8%

Interest = 800

So, P = 800 * 100/ (0.25 * 8) = 40,000 $


c) The Accounts receivable can't be striked off as doubtful allowance as the receivable part is sure to get credited.

Hence, statement (c) i.e. James' account was written off because it was determined to be uncollectible. is false.
