Answer:
Decentralization
Explanation:
It is a process through which the authority of an organization is delegated to lower managers. The lower managers are given more responsibility which is the opposite of the centralization in which the decision making power is concentrated in the hands of a few people. The top-level managers take all the decisions in the organization with centralized authority.
In decentralized authority, lower managers can decide on their own as long as it is in sync with the overall goal of the organization, but the authority to take static decisions and control and coordination remain in the hands of top-level managers.
Answer:
On February 1, a customer's account balance of $2,700 was deemed to be uncollectible.
The entry to be recorded on February 1 to record the write-off assuming the company uses the allowance method is:
Debit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $2,700; credit Accounts Receivable $2,700.
Explanation:
Using the allowance method, every bad debt entry is first reflected in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts before it is taken to the bad debt expense account.
The entries above reduce the Accounts Receivable account by the amount of the write-off and reduces the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts by the same amount. Any recovery of written off debt is also treated in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and the Accounts Receivable account in revised order. This method is unlike the direct write-off method. With the direct write-off method, the Accounts Receivable is credited with the amount of the write-off and the write-off is expensed in the Bad Debts Expense account directly.
Answer: Actually refinance the obligation.
Management indicated that they are going to refinance the obligation.
Have a contractual right to defer settlement of the liability for at least one year after the balance sheet date.
The liability is contractually due more than one year after the balance sheet date.
Explanation:
A current liability is an obligation payable within a year. A short term liability can be excluded from current abilities if management indicates that they are going to refinance it and show that they are capable of doing so.
Also if the company has a contractual right to defer settlement of the liability for at least one year after the balance sheet date, the short term obligation can be excluded. The deferment means that it will be recognized in another period.
When the liability is contractually due more than one year after the balance sheet date, it stops being a current liability and becomes a non-current liability payable after a year.
