Answer 1

Adjusted 1,312,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Unadjusted 750,000

outstanding checks 350,000

Purchase net of discount 147,000

Shipped FOB destination 65,000

the title of the goods passes when the supplier deliver to the carrier.

Adjusted 1,312,000

The check were not mailed until next year, so it doesn't decrease the AP balance

The purchase is recorded net of discount

150,000 x (1-2%) = 147,000
