On May 1, Dexter, Inc. factored $1,600,000 of accounts receivable with Quick Finance on a without recourse basis. Under the arrangement, Dexter was to handle disputes concerning service and returns of purchases. Quick Finance was to make the collections, and absorb any credit losses for bad debts. Quick Finance assessed a finance charge of 6% of the total accounts receivable factored and retained an amount equal to 2% of the total receivables to cover sales discounts.

Instructions

(a)   Prepare the journal entry required on Dexter's books on May 1.

(b)   Prepare the journal entry required on Quick Finance’s books on May 1.

(c)   Assume Dexter factors the $1,600,000 of accounts receivable with Quick Finance on a with recourse basis instead. The recourse provision has a fair value of $28,000. Prepare the journal entry required on Dexter’s books on May 1.

(d) Prepare the entry on Dexter’s books if a customer returned $3,500 of purchases. Next, also prepare the entry on Quick Finance’s books when notified by Dexter of the $3,500 customer return. Note: the customer’s $3,500 account was included in the total accounts factored with Quick Finance and was still outstanding (unpaid) at the time of the return.
