2021 2021
Total accounts receivable
Less: Allowance for uncollectible acounts
Net accounts receivable

Answer:

Net account receivable

2021 $8,085

2022 $5,335

Explanation:

Calculation for the net account receivable

2021 2022

Total account receivable 14,700 9,700

(33,200-18,500=14,700)

(48,200-38,500=9,700)

Less: Allowance for doubtful accounts (6,615) (4,365)

(45%*14,700=6,615)

(45%*9,700=4,365)

Net account receivable 8,085 5,335

(14,700-6,615=8,085)

(9,700-4,365=5,335)

Therefore Net account receivable will be :

2021 $8,085

2022 $5,335

Much has been written about how to identify and interpret signs that indicate that a new organizational form is needed. Grinnell and Apple have identified five signs in addition to those previously described in Section 3.625:Management is satisfied with its technical skills, but projects are not meeting time, cost, and other project requirements.There is a high commitment to getting project work done, but great fluctuation in how well performance specifications are met.Highly talented specialists involved in the project feel exploited and misused.Particular technical groups or individuals constantly blame each other for failure to meet specifications or delivery dates.Projects are on time and to specification, but groups and individuals aren’t satisfied with the achievement. Grinnell and Apple state that there is a good chance that a matrix structure will eliminate or alleviate these problems. Do you agree or disagree? Does your answer depend on the type of project? Give examples or counterexamples to defend your answers.

In a Las Vegas casino, an employee discovered a flaw in the accounting system. The accounts payable clerk discovered that he was able to change the names of vendors in the computer system to his name. As a result, the employee could create false invoices and then cut a check for the false invoice. The name on the check would be changed to the name of the employee. After the check was printed, the name in the system could then be changed back to the appropriate vendor. The check register would show only the name of the vendor. The fraudulent employee had authorization to sign checks under $1,000. By writing small checks, the employee was able to defraud the company of $10,000. This fraud was caught by accident then the employee of another department was looking through the vendor list on her computer after the fraudulent employee had changed the vendor name to his name. A few entries later, the vendor name changed again. She wondered how this could occur and asked her supervisor. Soon after, the fraudulent employee was caught.
1. What kind of fraud is being committed?2. What percent of frauds are of this type?3. How could this fraud have been prevented?
