Answer:
Debit Supplies expenses for $275
Office supplies for $275
Explanation:
Before the adjusting entry, the following adjustment has to be made first:
Ending balance of supplies that has not been adjusted = $379
Physical ending balance = $104
Amount of used supplies during the period = $379 - $104 = $275
This $275 will be recorded as supplies expense. Therefore, the adjusting entry will be as follows:
Particulars Dr ($) Cr ($)
Supplies expenses 275
Office supplies 275
(To record the supplies expense for the period.)
The above entries will then reduce enduing balance of supplies from $379 to $104.
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
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 following lots of Commodity Z were available for sale during the year. 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
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 $1,000 par bond is currently selling for $1,100. It has a 9% coupon rate, fifteen years remaining to maturity, and pays interest semi-annually. If the firm's tax rate is 35%, what is the after-tax cost of debt
Answer:
$54.17 per bond
Explanation:
the journal entry to record the issuance of the bond:
Dr Cash 1,100
Cr Bonds payable 1,000
Cr Premium on bonds payable 100
The bond premium amortization using straight line amortization:
$100 / 30 = $3.33 per coupon payment
journal entry to record coupon payment:
Dr Interest expense 41.67
Dr Premium on bonds payable 3.33
Cr Cash 45
the yearly interest expense = $41.67 x 2 = $83.34 x (1 - tax rate) = $83.34 x 0.65 = $54.17
Skysong Corporation has retained earnings of $691,300 at January 1, 2020. Net income during 2020 was $1,552,100, and cash dividends declared and paid during 2020 totaled $82,000. Prepare a retained earnings statement for the year ended December 31, 2020. Assume an error was discovered: land costing $88,390 (net of tax) was charged to maintenance and repairs expense in 2019. (List items that increase retained earnings first.)
Answer:
Skysong Corporation
Statement of Retained Earnings
Retained earnings balance January 1, 2020 $691,300
Add:
Adjustments to 2019 Income Statement $88,390
Net profits 2020 $1,552,100
Less:
Dividends declared and distributed ($82,000)
Retained earnings balance December 31, 2020 $2,249,790
Since the land purchase was recorded as maintenance expense by error, the 2019 income statement must be adjusted by adding that amount.
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

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.
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
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
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

It records warranty expense with an adjusting entry on December 31. On January 5 of Year 2, the copier requires on-site repairs that are completed the same day. The repairs cost $114 for materials taken from the repair parts inventory. These are the only repairs required in Year 2 for this copier. Based on experience, Hitzu expects to incur warranty costs equal to 4% of dollar sales. It records warranty expense with an adjusting entry at the end of each year.
Required:
a. How much warranty expense does the company report in 2015 for this copier?
b. How much is the estimated warranty liability for this copier as of December 31, 2015?
c. How much warranty expense does the company report in 2016 for this copier?
d. How much is the estimated warranty liability for this copier as of December 31, 2016?
Answer:
Explanation:
Requirement 1
Warranty expense in 2015 = $9,000 x 6%
Warranty expense in 2015 = $540
Note: As mention above Hitzu expects warranty cost to be 6% of dollar sales
Requirement 2
Estimate warranty liability as of Dec 2015 = $540
Requirement 3
Warranty expense in 2016 = 0
Requirement 4
Estimated warrant liability as of Dec 2016 = $540 -$114
Estimated warrant liability as of Dec 2016 = $426
Note: As the repair costs 114 on the same day of repair.
Suppose a piece of plant equipment that PepsiCo put into service on January 1, 2014 at a total cost of $300,000 with an expected useful life of 5 years and a salvage value of $60,000 is sold on June 30, 2018 for $60,000. The accumulated depreciation is $216,000.What would the journal entry look like to record this sale?
Answer:
Preparation of how the journal entry will look like to record the sale
Dr Cash $60,000
Dr Accumulated Depreciation $216,000
Dr Gain/Loss on Disposal of Assets $24,000
Cr Property, Plant & Equipment $300,000
Explanation:
Since we assumed that a piece of plant equipment was put into service on January 1, 2014 at a cost of $300,000 with a salvage value of $60,000 which is been sold out on June 30, 2018 for $60,000 in which the accumulated depreciation was $216,000 this means we have to record the transaction by Debiting Cash with $60,000 ,Debiting Accumulated Depreciation with $216,000 and Debiting Gain/Loss on Disposal of Assets with $24,000 while we Credit Property, Plant & Equipment with $300,000
Calculation of Gain/Loss on Disposal of Assets
Using this formula
Carrying Value = Cost - Accumulated
Depreciation
The Carrying value will be :
300,000 - 216,000 = $84000
The asset loss on disposal of Assets will be:
60,000 - 84,000 = loss of 24000
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.

Big Bad Wolf Masonry Co. agreed to build a brick home for Johnny Little Pig, the Third by November 1. Big Bad Wolf and Johnny Pig could not predict Pig's losses of Big Bad Wolf failed to complete the house on time. 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).
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.
Quantum Company uses the high-low method to estimate the cost function. The information for 2017 is provided below: Machine-hours Labor Costs Highest observation of cost driver 1,000 $32,000 Lowest observation of cost driver 200 $16,000 What is the constant for the estimated cost equation
Answer:
Fixed costs= $12,000
Variable cost per unit= $20
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Machine-hours Labor Costs:
Highest observation of cost driver 1,000 $32,000
Lowest observation of cost driver 200 $16,000
To calculate the fixed costs under the high-low method, we need to use the following formulas:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (32,000 - 16,000) / (1,000 - 200)
Variable cost per unit= $20
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 32,000 - (20*1,000)
Fixed costs= $12,000
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 16,000 - (20*200)
Fixed costs= $12,000
g sells its product for $60 per unit. During 2019, it produced 48000 units and sold 40000 units (there was no beginning inventory). Costs per unit are: direct materials $15, direct labor $9, and variable overhead $3. Fixed costs are: $576000 manufacturing overhead, and $72000 selling and administrative expenses. Under absorption costing, what amount of fixed overhead is deferred to a future period?
Answer:
Fixed overhead allocated to ending inventory= $96,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production= 48,000
Sales= 40,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead= $576,000
First, we need to calculate the unitary fixed manufacturing overhead:
Unitary fixed manufacturing overhead= 576,000/48,000= $12

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

The question is incomplete:
Debbie works as a floor representative at a cellular phone company. Her job is to receive information from potential customers about their needs and interests and enter it into a computer system that then passes the information on to the appropriate specialized technician in order to meet customer needs. Debbie is the metaphorical _____ of the firm.
A) axon
B) cell body
C) dendrite
D) nucleus
Answer:
C) dendrite
Explanation:
-Axon is a part of the neurons that takes the information to other neurons, glands and muscles.
-Cell body is a part of the neurons that contains the nucleus and connects to the dendrite and the axon.
-Dendrite is a part of the neurons that receives information from other cells and pass it to the cell body.
-Nucleus is a part of the cell that controls the activities of it.
According to this, the answer is that Debbie is the metaphorical dendrite of the firm because she receives the information and this information is passed to the appropiate technician to fulfill the customer needs and the dendrite receives the information and passes it to the nucleus that controls the functions.
. Assuming the workers can shift to the production of the new TMP-20 thermostat while maintaining the same average efficiency, regardless of which assembly station they are at, what worker would you assign to each station to achieve the highest possible hourly output rate
Answer:
hello your question is incomplete attached to the answer is the complete question
Answer : The worker with the highest efficiency will be stationed at the station with the highest processing time and the highest possible hourly output rate = 60 / 2.06 ≈ 29 units
Explanation:
The maximum cycle time of the assembly line has to be reduced to get maximum output from the workers assigned to them
The assignment of workers to each station to achieve the highest possible hourly output rate is shown in the table attached below
from the table we can conclude that the maximum cycle time of the stations reduced from 2.3 mins to 2.06 mins
therefore the highest possible hourly output rate = 60 / 2.06 ≈ 29 units
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
Based on the data below, how would the inventory appear on the balance sheet, assuming that the lower of cost or market is used and the cost is determined by the First-in, first-out (FIFO) method?
Total cost: $248,000
Total market: $252,350
Lower-of-cost-or-market (LCM): $239,350
The inventory would appear in the current assets section, as follows:
Inventory-at cost (first-in, first-out method) X

Remember that inventory is an asset account. The method of determining the cost of the inventory and the method of valuing the inventory is also reported
Learning Objective 6
Answer:
On the balance sheet, the inventory would appear as:
Inventory $248,000
Explanation:
In the notes to the accounts, the method of determining the cost and the method of valuing the inventory would be disclosed. It is not disclosed on the balance sheet, but on the notes to the accounts.
It would make the balance sheet appear unorganized to include details that should have been included in the notes. The presentation of information is very important in order to ensure that those reading the information understand it. Understanding is not aided by including information that could be displayed elsewhere.
Answer:
$239,350
Explanation:
The inventory would appear in the current assets section, as follows: Inventory-at lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value $239,350
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.

At the beginning of the year, a firm has current assets of $327 and current liabilities of $231. At the end of the year, the current assets are $491 and the current liabilities are $271. What is the change in net working capital?
Answer:
Change in the Net working capital is $124
Explanation:
Working Capital can be define as the net amount between the Current Asset and Current liability of a particular year
It is better written as Working capital = Current Asset - Current Liabilities.
At the beginning of the year, the working capital is = $327 - $231 = $96
At the end of the year, the working capital is = $491 - $271 = $220
Change in Net working capital = $96 - $220
Change in Net working capital = $124
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.
