P(x) = -30x^2 + 9000x - 567000. Explanation: Initially, we must recall the components of a Profit function. The profit of a business is equivalent to its revenue (R(x)) minus its costs (C(x)). There are two elements: 1. Revenue: defined as the number of units sold multiplied by the price, where x indicates the price charged and Q(x) reflects the number of shirts sold. 2. Cost: The cost function is directly provided in the prompt. Aggregating these elements yields the complete profit function.
Answer:
P14 = $55.69545045394 rounded to $55.70
Explanation:
The dividend discount model (DDM) based on constant growth can help determine the current stock price. It assesses a stock’s price using the present value of the anticipated future dividends. The formula for determining today's price with a constant growth DDM is,
P0 = D1 / (r - g)
Where,
- D1 represents the expected dividend for Year 1 or the following year
- g denotes the constant growth rate for dividends
- r signifies the discount rate or the required rate of return
To find the stock price today, we will utilize the dividend expected in Year 1. Consequently, to compute the stock price 14 years into the future, we calculate D15. D15 can be figured out as follows,
D15 = D1 * (1+g)^14
D15 = 0.50 * (1+0.09)^14
D15 = $1.67086351362 rounded to $1.67
Now applying the DDM formula for the price,
P14 = 1.67086351362 / (0.12 - 0.09)
P14 = $55.69545045394 rounded to $55.70

$ 11,785 Debit
$ 61,170 Debit
$ 58 Credit
$ 58,825 Credit
$ 14,072 Debit Balance
Explanation:
To ascertain the amount of debt written off during the ongoing year, take into account the balance from the previous year and factor in the total recorded for bad debts within the year. The difference between the total for the current year and these figures will indicate the written-off amount.
- In the current year, Hassell noted a bad debt expenditure of $94 with no recoveries reported.
Dr Bad Debt Expense $ 94
Cr Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts $ 94

Clarification:
The disparity between the inventory count recorded and the actual count suggests that the goods in stock have either been sold or lost. For the sake of ongoing operations, it is presumed they have been sold. Accordingly, the journal entry to document the sale is -
December - 31 Cost of goods sold Debit 45,000
($415,000 - $370,000)
Merchandise Inventory Credit 45,000
(To record the sale of merchandise: adjusted)
