A sample of 30 houses that were sold in the last year was taken. The value of the house (Y) was estimated. The independent variables included in the analysis were the number of rooms (X1), the size of the lot (X2), the number of bathrooms (X3), and a dummy variable (X4), which equals 0 if the house does not have a garage and equals 1 otherwise. The following results were obtained: Coefficients Standard Error Intercept 15,232.5 8,462.5 X1 2,178.4 778.0 X2 7.8 2.2 X3 2,675.2 2,229.3 X4 1,157.8 463.1 Analysis of Variance DF SS MS Regression 204,242.88 51,060.72 Residual (Error) 205,890.00 8,235.60 Test whether or not there is a significant relationship between the value of a house and the independent variables. Use a 0.05 level of significance. Be sure to state the null and alternative hypotheses. (f) Test the significance of β1 at the 5% level. Be sure to state the null and alternative hypotheses. (g) Compute the coefficient of determination and interpret its meaning. (h) Estimate the value of a house that has 9 rooms, a lot with an area of 7,500, 2 bathrooms, and 2 garages.

Assume that XYZ company was started a year ago. As they are trying to figure out how to account for the uncollectible accounts, they are unsure of which method to use. If you recall in your principles class, it was broken down in to the Allowance Method and the Direct Write-Off Method. This book breaks the Allowance Method into two areas: 1. The sales revenue approach; and 2. The gross accounts receivable approach. There are not sure which method to use: 1. The sales revenue approach; 2. The gross accounts receivable approach; or 3. The direct write off method approach.
You have been hired to answer these specific questions: 1. Explain to them the difference among these three methods and which method you recommend and explain specifically why you would recommend that method. 2. Discuss the importance of making sure the accounts receivable reflects the correct balance and what the net realizable value is.
