Answer:
1. the equivalent units of production
A. Materials = 72,000 units Conversion = 64,320 units
B. Materials = 60,000 units Conversion = 45,600 units
2. Materials = 45,600 units
3. $ 1,684,000
Explanation:
1. the equivalent units of production
The Concept of Equivalent Units of Production Measures the number of units completed to the extend of inputs introduced in the process
A.
Materials
units completed and transferred (52,800×100%) = 52,800
units in Ending Work In Process (19,200 × 100%) = 19,200
Total equivalent units of production = 72,000
Conversion
units completed and transferred (52,800×100%) = 52,800
units in Ending Work In Process (19,200 × 60%) = 11,520
Total equivalent units of production = 64,320
B.
First Determine the number of units completed and transferred.
units completed and transferred = 12,000 + 48,000 - 24,000
= 36,000
Materials
units completed and transferred (36,000×100%) = 36,000
units in Ending Work In Process (24,000 × 100%) = 24,000
Total equivalent units of production = 60,000
Conversion
units completed and transferred (36,000×100%) = 36,000
units in Ending Work In Process (24,000 × 40%) = 9,600
Total equivalent units of production = 45,600
2. the equivalent units of production
Materials
units completed and transferred (80,000×100%) = 80,000
units in Ending Work In Process (20,000 × 80%) = 16,000
Total equivalent units of production = 45,600
3. the cost of the units completed
First Calculate the cost per equivalent of production
cost per equivalent = Total Cost / Total Equivalent units
= $960,000 / 45,600
= $21.05
Then , calculate the cost of the units completed and transferred out
cost of the units completed and transferred = $21.05 × 80,000
= $ 1,684,000
On December 31, 2021, Caria vista inc. appropriately changed its inventory valuation method to FIFO cost from weighted average cost for financial statement and income tax purposes. The change will result in a $38,500 increase in the beginning inventory at January 1, 2021. Assume a 20% income tax rate. The cumulative effect of this accounting change on beginning retained earnings is:_______
Answer: Increases by $30,800
Explanation:
If the inventory increased by $38,500 in January then that means that the Net Income for the previous period has increased because the Cost of Goods sold for the previous period will be less.
Since the Income for the year 2020 has increased by $38,500, the tax rate needs to be applied to it to see how much goes to retained earnings.
= 38,500 ( 1 - tax rate)
= 38,500 * ( 1 - 20%)
= $30,800
The beginning Retained Earnings balance Increases by $30,800
Answer: $30,800
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that On December 31, 2021, Caria Vista Incorporation appropriately changed its inventory valuation method to FIFO cost from the weighted average cost for financial statement and income tax purposes
Due to this, there was an increase in the beginning inventory by $38,500.
With an income tax rate of 20%, remaining amount on the net income would be carried to the retained earnings. The income tax rate on the increase will be:
= 20% × $38,500
= 20/100 × $38,500
= 0.2 × $38,500
= $7,700
Therefore, the balance of the net income which will be carried to the retained earnings will be:
= $38,500 - $7,700
= $30,800
Therefore, there will be an increase of $30,800 in retained earnings balance.
Your aunt is about to retire, and she wants to sell some of her stock and buy an annuity that will provide her with income of $50,000 per year for 30 years, beginning a year from today. The going rate on such annuities is 7.25%. How much would it cost her to buy such an annuity today
Answer:
$605,183.13
Explanation:
For computing the cost her to buy an annuity today we need to find out the present value by applying the PV formula i.e shown in the attachment
Provided that,
Future value = $0
Rate of interest = 7.25%
NPER = 30 years
PMT = $50,000
The formula is shown below:
= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)
So, after applying the above formula, the present value is $605,183.13
You have just learned that one of your customers, Tom’s Discount Store, has received a shipment of faulty goods from your warehouse. The total cost of the merchandise is $2,500. Your company has a returned goods policy that allows you to return only $500 worth of your product at one time unless a reciprocal order is placed. What would you do? And Why
Answer: d. Go to Tom's as soon as possible that day, check the shipment to see if there are any undamaged goods that can be put on the shelf, take a replacement order from Tom's manager, and phone in the order immediately.
Explanation:
This indeed would be the best course of action because some of the goods will be saved while at the same time increasing your company's relationship and profile with Tom's Discount Store.
This is because Tom will be very pleased at the prompt and personal response to the situation and be more receptive towards the solution.
Once the items that are damaged are identified, placing a replacement order immediately is in line with your company's policy of returning goods over $500 if a reciprocal order is placed immediately.
With this course of action, you would endear your company to Tom's Discount store as well as manage to sell the goods in total.
George’s Car Repair Shop buys parts from a local parts distributor. The distributor delivers the parts promptly under terms stated on the invoice: 3/15 net 30. George has always paid the bill within 30 days and has never really worried about these invoice terms. Which of the following statements is true of this scenario?
a. George should not react to these payment terms because they area tactic used by many distributors to get customers to pay early, with little or no benefitto George.
b. These terms mean that the payment is due in 30 days, but that as long as he is not more than 15 days late, he can avoid the 3% late penalty. Thus, George could actually delay payment until the 45th day without incurring a penalty.
c. He is smart to wait until the 30th day before making payment because this gives him the use of cash for the maximum possible amount of time.
d. If possible, it is smart to pay the bill within 15 days after receipt because then he will receive a 3% discount. If he does a lot of business with this firm, this will result in a sizeable savings for George by year’s end.
Answer:
d. If possible, it is smart to pay the bill within 15 days after receipt because then he will receive a 3% discount. If he does a lot of business with this firm, this will result in a sizeable savings for George by year’s end.
Explanation:
In the given instance the supplier of parts to George uses invoice 3%/15 net 30. This means if payment for parts is made within 15 days George will get a discount of 3%, if not the total amount of the parts is to be repayed within 30 days.
The best option for George will be to reduce his repayment period from 30 days to 15 days or less.
This way he will get 3% discount on sales and if he does a lot of business with the spare parts dealer, he will save a large sum of money
7. Identifying costs of inflation Bob manages a grocery store in a country experiencing a high rate of inflation. He is paid in cash twice per month. On payday, he immediately goes out and buys all the goods he will need over the next two weeks in order to prevent the money in his wallet from losing value. What he can't spend, he converts into a more stable foreign currency for a steep fee. This is an example of the of inflation.
Answer:
Shoe-leather Costs.
Explanation:
In this scenario, Bob manages a grocery store in a country experiencing a high rate of inflation. He is paid in cash twice per month. On payday, he immediately goes out and buys all the goods he will need over the next two weeks in order to prevent the money in his wallet from losing value.
What he can't spend, he converts into a more stable foreign currency for a steep fee. This is an example of the Shoes-leather costs of inflation.
A Shoe-leather costs refers to the costs of time, energy and effort people expend to mitigate the effect of high inflation on the depreciative purchasing power of money by frequently visiting depository financial institutions in order to minimize inflation tax they pay on holding cash.
Metaphorically, it ultimately implies that in order to protect the value of money or assets, some people wear out the sole of their shoes by going to financial institutions more frequently to make deposits.
Hence, Bob is practicing a shoe-leather cost of inflation so as to reduce the nominal interest rates.
A complaint of sexual harassment by a part-time worker in a hardware business was upheld when the Tribunal found that the employer had failed to take sufficient action in relation to the employee's report of inappropriate behaviour. The alleged sexual harassment included kissing, touching her breasts and leg, persistent requests to have a drink outside work hours despite an ongoing refusal, asking for cuddles, telephoning her at home and making repeated unsolicited sexual remarks. Based on any four ethical theories, explain how these acts constitute unethical behaviours at the workplace
Answer:
The ethical theory of rights is being violated in this case.Explanation:
As we know sexual harassment is a violation against an individual's civil rights, the ethical theory of rights is being violated in this case. The part-time worker who is being harassed by another employee is being violated of her right to a safe workplace under the civil rights.
The ethical theory of rights provides that rights designed and formulated by the society and the government should be upheld with commitment and priority. They are the basic human rights that guarantees equal and dignified life for all.
If any unethical behaviors at the workplace such as sexual harassment, abuse, threat, etc, occurs, it is a direct violation to the basic human rights of an individual.
A company had the following purchases and sales during its first year of operations: Purchases Sales January: 10 units at $120 6 units February: 20 units at $125 5 units May: 15 units at $130 9 units September: 12 units at $135 8 units November: 10 units at $140 13 units On December 31, there were 26 units remaining in ending inventory. Using the perpetual FIFO inventory costing method, what is the cost of the ending inventory? (Assume all sales were made on the last day of the month.)
Answer:
Ending Inventory $ 3540
Explanation:
FIFO means first in first out. This rule applies to counting of the inventory in such a way that the units first purchased are sold out first. The following schedule has been prepared to arrive at the ending inventory at each date of sale .
Purchases Sales Ending Inventory
January: 10 units at $120 6 units 4 units at $120
February: 20 units at $125 5 units 19 units at $125
May: 15 units at $130 9 units 10 units at $125
15 units at $130
September: 12 units at $135 8 units 2 units at $125
15 units at $130
12 units at $135
November: 10 units at $140 13 units 4 units at $130
12 units at $135
10 units at $140
On December 31, there were 26 units remaining in ending inventory
Ending Inventory = $ 3540= $ 520 + $1620 + $1400
4 units at $130 = $ 520
12 units at $135 = $ 1620
10 units at $140= $ 1400

1. A company sells a plant asset that originally cost $375,000 for $125,000 on December 31, 2017. The accumulated depreciation account had a balance of $150,000 after the current year's depreciation of $37,500 had been recorded. The company should recognize a
Answer:
The company should recognize a loss on sale of plant asset of $100,00.
Explanation:
The cost = $375,000
Accumulated Depreciation = $150,000
Therefore, book value = $225,000
This book value is compared with the sales value of $125,000.
There is a difference of $100,000 ($225,000 - $125,000).
Since the book value is greater than the sales value, it means that the plant asset was sold at a loss.
The cost is the amount at which the plant asset was purchased. The accumulated depreciation represents the cost that has been expensed so far. The sales value is the amount at which the plant asset was sold.
A change in price will lead to a change in __________ and to a change in __________, while a change in government subsidies will lead to a change in __________ and a change in the number of buyers will lead to a change in __________.
Answer:
quantity demanded; quantity supplied; supply; demand
Explanation:
When there is a change in price of goods, this change will lead to quantity demanded and it will also lead to a change in the quantity supplied. According to the law of demand, an increase in price will lead to a decrease in quantity demanded and vice-versa.
When there is a change in government susidies, this change will lead to a change in supply, and a change in the number of buyers will lead to a change in demand.
Therefore, the correct statement is:
A change in price will lead to a change in quantity demanded and to a change in quantity supplied, while a change in government subsidies will lead to a change in supply and a change in the number of buyers will lead to a change in demand.
Imaging Inc., a developer of radiology equipment, has stock outstanding as follows: 20,000 shares of cumulative preferred 4% stock, $140 par, and 67,000 shares of $10 par common. During its first four years of operations, the following amounts were distributed as dividends: first year, $75,000; second year, $159,000; third year, $190,300; fourth year, $205,130.
Requried:
Compute the dividends per share on each class of stock for each of the four years.
Answer:
Dividend per Share:
1st Year
Preferred dividend per share = $3.75
Common dividend per share = $0
2nd Year
Preferred dividend per share = $7.45
Common dividend per share = $0.149
3rd Year
Preferred dividend per share = $5.6
Common dividend per share = $1.169
4th Year
Preferred dividend per share = $5.6
Common dividend per share = $1.39
Explanation:
The cumulative preferred stock is the stock which accumulates or accrues dividends in case the dividends are not paid or partially paid in a particular year. These accumulated dividends or dividends in arrears are paid whenever the company declares dividends next time.
Preferred dividend per year = 20000 * 140 * 0.04 = $112000
1st year
Preferred dividend = 75000
Preferred dividend per share = 75000 / 20000 = $3.75 per share
Accumulated preferred dividends = 112000 - 75000 = $37000
Common dividend = 0
Common dividend per share = 0
2nd year
Preferred dividend = 37000 + 112000
Preferred dividend per share = 149000 / 20000 = $7.45 per share
Common dividend = 10000
Common dividend per share = 10000 / 67000 = $0.149 per share
3rd year
Preferred dividend = 112000
Preferred dividend per share = 112000 / 20000 = $5.6 per share
Common dividend = 78300
Common dividend per share = 78300 / 67000 = $1.169 per share
4th year
Preferred dividend = 112000
Preferred dividend per share = 112000 / 20000 = $5.6 per share
Common dividend = 93130
Common dividend per share = 93130 / 67000 = $1.39 per share

Beginning inventory 7 units at $49 First purchase 18 units at $50 Second purchase 53 units at $59 Third purchase 18 units at $64 The firm uses the periodic system, and there are 23 units of the commodity on hand at the end of the year. What is the ending inventory balance at the end of the year according to the LIFO method? a.$5,522 b.$1,447 c.$1,127 d.$1,143
Answer:
The correct answer is D.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Beginning inventory 7 units at $49
First purchase 18 units at $50
Second purchase 53 units at $59
Third purchase 18 units at $64
The firm uses the periodic system, and there are 23 units of the commodity on hand at the end of the year.
To calculate the ending inventory using the LIFO (las-in, first-out), we need to use the cost of the firsts units incorporated to inventory:
Ending inventory= 7*49 + 16*50= $1,143

Holt Enterprises recently paid a dividend, D0, of $3.75. It expects to have nonconstant growth of 23% for 2 years followed by a constant rate of 6% thereafter. The firm's required return is 9%.
a. How far away is the horizon date?
I. The terminal, or horizon, date is Year 0 since the value of a common stock is the present value of all future expected dividends at time zero.
II. The terminal, or horizon, date is the date when the growth rate becomes nonconstant. This occurs at time zero.
III. The terminal, or horizon, date is the date when the growth rate becomes constant. This occurs at the beginning of Year 2.
IV. The terminal, or horizon, date is the date when the growth rate becomes constant. This occurs at the end of Year 2.
V. The terminal, or horizon, date is infinity since common stocks do not have a maturity date.
b. What is the firm's horizon, or continuing, value? Round your answer to two decimal places. Do not round your intermediate calculations.
c. What is the firm's intrinsic value today, P0? Round your answer to two decimal places. Do not round your intermediate calculations.
Answer:
a. How far away is the horizon date?
IV. The terminal, or horizon, date is the date when the growth rate becomes constant. This occurs at the end of Year 2.
b. What is the firm's horizon, or continuing, value? Round your answer to two decimal places. Do not round your intermediate calculations.
to determine the horizon value we can use the Gordon growth formula:
stock price = future dividend / (required rate of return - constant growth rate)
Div₀ = $3.75
Div₁ = $4.6125
Div₂ = $5.673375
Div₃ = $6.97825125
since the terminal value is calculated for year 2, we must use Div₃ in our calculations:
stock price = $6.97825125 / (9% - 6%) = $232.61
c. What is the firm's intrinsic value today, P0? Round your answer to two decimal places. Do not round your intermediate calculations.
we have to calculate the present value of:
P₀ = $4.6125/1.09 + $5.673375/1.09² + $232.608375/1.09² = $4.2317 + $4.7752 + $195.7818 = $204.7887 ≈ $204.79

8. Problems and Applications Q8 The city government is considering two tax proposals: • A lump-sum tax of $300 on each producer of hamburgers. • A tax of $1 per burger, paid by producers of hamburgers. Which of the following statements is true as a result of the lump-sum tax? Check all that apply. Average fixed cost will increase. Average variable cost will remain unchanged. Average total cost will increase. Marginal cost will increase. Which of the following statements is true as a result of the per-burger tax? Check all that apply. Average fixed cost will remain unchanged. Average total cost will increase. Average variable cost will increase. Marginal cost will remain unchanged.
Answer:
Which of the following statements is true as a result of the lump-sum tax?
Average fixed cost will increase.
Average total cost will increase.
The lump-sum tax of $300 is a one time payment that does not depend on the amount of output, for this reason, it is a fixed cost that is spread over the total quantity of burgers that are produced, and that also affect average total cost.
Which of the following statements is true as a result of the per-burger tax?
Average fixed cost will remain unchanged.
Average total cost will increase.
Average variable cost will increase.
The per-burger tax depends on the quanityt of burgers produced, therefore, it is another variable cost. It affects average total cost, and average variable cost, while average fixed cost remains unchaged precisely because it is not a fixed cost.
The average cost of production is computed by dividing the number cost (TC) by the output produced (TO) (Q). When we say "per unit cost of production," we mean that all fixed and variable costs are taken into account when calculating the average cost.
As a result, it's also known as Per Unit Total Cost.
The answers to the above questions are:
1) The $300 lump-sum tax is a one-time contribution that is not based on the amount of output; as a result, it is a fixed cost that is distributed across the total quantity of burgers produced, affecting the average total cost.
So, Option A and C are correct.
2) The per-burger tax is a variable expense that is determined by the number of burgers consumed. It has an effect on average total cost and average variable cost, but it has no effect on average fixed cost because it is not a fixed cost.
So, Option A, B, and C are correct.
Thus these Options are correct for the following question.

They estimated that Johnny Pig would lose $150 in storage and rental fees per day if the building was not completed on time. The contract contained a liquidated damage clause. The clause required Big Bad Wolf to pay liquidated damages of $150 per day if the work was completed late. Big Bad Wolf finished the home twelve days late. Johnny Pig actually lost $1,000 because of the breach. Is the liquidated damage amount stated in the contract between Big Bad Wolf Masonry and Johnny Pig a valid or invalid liquidated damage clause and why
Answer:
In this case, the liquidated damages are too high and can be considered a penalty instead. Unreasonable penalties, like this one, can be considered unenforceable since they are treated as coercive measures to force the contractor to finish early. Big Bad Wolf would probably have to pay only the actual loss suffered by Johnny Pig ($1,000), instead of the amount stated as liquidated damages ($1,800).
You find a zero coupon bond with a par value of $10,000 and 29 years to maturity. The yield to maturity on this bond is 5.1 percent. Assume semiannual compounding periods. What is the price of the bond
Answer:
The price of the bond is $2,321.30
Explanation:
In this question, we are concerned with calculating the price of the bond.
We can calculate this mathematically by using the formula below;
Price of bond = P ÷ (1 + r/n)^nt
where P = par value of coupon bond = 10,000
r is the interest rate = 5.1% = 5.1/100 = 0.051
n = number of times yield to maturity is compounded. Since it is semi-annually, it means it is twice per year and thus, n = 2
t is the number of years to maturity = 29 years
Plugging these values into the equation above, we have
Price of bond = 10,000 ÷ (1 + 0.051/2)^(2)(29)
Price of bond = 10,000 ÷ (1.0255)^58
Price of bond = $2,321.30
g "Problem-solving: Calculate the break-even point (Q), for a firm whose: (a) total fixed cost (TFC) = $100,000, product price (P) = $10.00, and average variable cost (AVC) = $7.50. (b) TFC = $600,000, P = $15,000, and AVC = $12,000."
Answer:
a. $40,000
b. $200
Explanation:
The computation of break-even point is shown below:-
Break-even Point (Q) = TFC ÷ (Price - AVC)
Now we will put the values into the above formula.
a. Break even point = $100,000 ÷ ($10 - $7.5)
= $100,000 ÷ 2.5
= $40,000
b. Break even point = $600,000 ÷ ($15,000 - $12,000)
= $600,000 ÷ $3,000
= $200
Therefore for computing the break even point we simply applied the above formula.

The most recent comparative balance sheet of Giacomelli Corporation appears below: Which of the following classifications of changes in balance sheet accounts as sources and uses is correct? Select one: a. The change in Accounts Payable is a source; The change in Accrued Wages and Salaries payable is a use b. The change in Accounts Payable is a use; The change in Accrued Wages and Salaries payable is a use c. The change in Accounts Payable is a source; The change in Accrued Wages and Salaries payable is a source d. The change in Accounts Payable is a use; The change in Accrued Wages and Salaries payable is a source
Answer:
The correct option is B: "The change in Accounts Receivable is a source; The change in Inventory is a use"
Explanation:
However, you will need to look at the asset section as well in order to determine the correct response to this question statement. Depending on how the accounts receivable and inventory changes, you will be able to ascertain which is a source and which is a use. For instance, if the balance in Accounts Receivable and the Inventory has increased, the change is a use. And vice versa.
A company purchased factory equipment on April 1, 2022 for $128,000. It is esti salvage value at the end of its 10-year useful life. Using the straight-line method depreciation expense at December 31, 2022 is:___________.
a. $9.600.
b. $11,200.
c. $8,400.
d. $12.800.
Answer:
Depreciation expense= $9,600
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
A company purchased factory equipment on April 1, 2022 for $128,000. 10-year useful life.
We weren't provided with the salvage value.
First, we need to calculate the annual depreciation:
Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)
Annual depreciation= 128,000/10= 12,800
Now, for 9 months:
Depreciation expense= (12,800/12)*9= $9,600
In addition to the positive welfare effects that free trade has on an economy, there are a variety of other benefits of international trade. Consider the following scenario: Without free trade, Sapphira has market power as a local producer. Once free trade is implemented in the local economy, Sapphira is no longer able to raise its prices above competitive levels. The previous scenario represents which of the following benefits of free trade?A. An enhanced flow of ideas B. Increased competition C. Lower costs through economies of scale D. Increased variety of goods
Answer:
B. Increased competition
Explanation:
Free trade is an economic policy where there are no restrictions to imports or export of goods and services.
Before the free trade, Sapphira had market power. She could set the price of her products. She would probably set her prices high enough to maximise profits.
Due to free trade which introduces more products to the market, sapphira is no longer able to set her prices as high as she used to. If her price is too high, consumers would not purchase her products.
This is an example of increased competition.

Like many college students, Angie applied for and got a credit card that has an annual percentage rate (APR) of 18%. The first thing she did was buy a new HD Television for $300. At the end of the month, her credit card statement said she only needed to make a minimum monthly payment of $10. Assume Angie makes her payment when she sees her statement at the end of each month. If Angie doesn't charge anything else and only makes the minimum monthly payments, approximately how many months would it take her to completely pay off the HD Television
Answer:
during the first month, Angie will pay $4.50 in interests and $5.50 in principal
I prepared an amortization table using an excel spreadsheet to determine the number of years it takes to pay off the debt balance.
At the end of the 40th month, her balance will only be $1.53. So the 41st month should be the last month that she pays and her payment should only be $1.55 to payoff her debt completely.
To advertise or not to advertise Suppose that Creamland and Dairy King are the only two firms that sell ice cream. The following payoff matrix shows the profit (in millions of dollars) each company will earn depending on whether or not it advertises:
Dairy King
Advertise Doesn't Advertise
Creamland Advertise 10,10 18, 2
Doesn't Advertise 2,18 11,11
For example, the upper right cell shows that if Creamland advertises and Dairy King doesn't advertise, Creamland will make a profit of $18 million, and Dairy King will make a profit of $2 million. Assume this is a simultaneous game and that Creamland and Dairy King are both profit-maximizing firms.
a. If Creamland decides to advertise, it will earn a profit of $ _______ million if Dairy King advertises and a profit of $_______ million if Dairy King not advertise.
b. If Creamland decides not to advertise, it will earn a profit of________ million if Dairy King advertises and a profit of______ $ million if Dairy King does not advertise.
Suppose that both firms start off not advertising. If the firms act independently, what strategies will they end up choosing?
a. Creamland will choose not to advertise and Dairy King will choose to advertise.
b. Both firms will choose not to advertise.
c. Both firms will choose to advertise.
d. Creamland will choose to advertise and Dairy King will choose not to advertise.
Answer:
a. 10, 18
b. 2, 11
c. Both firms will choose to advertise.
Explanation:
Interpreting the payoff matrix for all possible cases:
Both Advertise:
Dairy King profit = 10
Creamland profit = 10
Neither Advertise:
Dairy King profit = 11
Creamland profit = 11
Only Dairy King advertises:
Dairy King profit = 18
Creamland profit = 2
Only Creamland advertises:
Dairy King profit = 2
Creamland profit = 18.
Filling in the blanks:
a. If Creamland decides to advertise, it will earn a profit of $10 million if Dairy King advertises and a profit of $18 million if Dairy King not advertise.
b. If Creamland decides not to advertise, it will earn a profit of $2 million if Dairy King advertises and a profit of $11 million if Dairy King does not advertise.
For both firms, if they choose not to advertise and the other firm advertises, they will have a much lower profit than their competitors. Therefore, the dominant strategy for either firm is to advertise since it will at least keep them even with their competitor (if both advertise).
The answer is c. Both firms will choose to advertise.
TB MC Qu. 05-100 A company had the following... A company had the following purchases and sales during its first year of operations: Purchases Sales January: 10 units at $120 6 units February: 20 units at $125 5 units May: 15 units at $130 9 units September: 12 units at $135 8 units November: 10 units at $140 13 units On December 31, there were 26 units remaining in ending inventory. Using the perpetual LIFO inventory costing method, what is the cost of the ending inventory
Answer:
$3,270
Explanation:
The perpetual LIFO inventory costing method is one in which adjustments are made to the balance of inventory for every item issued or received in a sequence of last in first out.
Given that 10 units at $120 6 units February: 20 units at $125 5 units May: 15 units at $130 9 units September: 12 units at $135 8 units November: 10 units at $140 13 units On December 31, there were 26 units remaining in ending inventory.
The net inventory units = 10 - 6 + 20 - 5 + 15 - 9 + 12 - 8 + 10 - 13
= 26 units
Since
January reminder (in value) = 10 - 6 ) $120 = $480
February remainder (in value) = (20 - 5) $125 = $1,875
May remainder = (15 - 9) $130 = $780
September = 12 - 8) $135 = $540
In November 10 items were purchased but 13 were sold.The makeup of the items sold are the 10 purchased in the month and 3 out of the remaining 4 items left off from September. Hence the balance for September will be
=$135
Cost of ending inventory
= $480 + $1,875 + $780 + $135
= $3,270
