If Nathan sells now, after paying a commission of $160 and margin account interest of $90, he will lose <u>$650</u>.

<h3>What is buying on margin?</h3>

Buying on margin is a situation when an investor buys an asset by <u>borrowing the balance </u>from the brokerage firm.

With buying on margin, the investor pays part of the investment cost while the remaining is met by the broker.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Cost of 200 shares at $40 per share = $8,000

Investor's cash = $5,000

Margin purchase = $3,000

Interest rate = 6%

Interest amount = $90 ($3,000 x 6% x 1/2)

Commission = $160

Total amount spent = $8,250 ($8,000 + $90 + $160)

Total amount realized from sale = $7,600 ($38 x 200)

Loss from sale = $650 ($7,600 - $8,250)

Thus, if Nathan sells now, after paying a commission of $160 and margin account interest of $90, he will lose <u>$650</u>.

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Performing service is part of normal business activities. It generates revenue for the business.

Once a service has been performed, revenue increases. Revenue is an equity account (it increases the owner's equity). An increase to an equity account is recorded by crediting the account.

The payment will be received in 30 days. This is an increase in accounts receivables ( asset account). An increase in assets is recorded as a debit.

A sporting goods manufacturer budgets production of 45,000 pairs of ski boots in the first quarter and 30,000 pairs in the secon
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

The budgeted materials need in kg. in the first quarter is 90,000 kg

Explanation:

For computing the budgeted material needed in the first quarter, first we have to calculate the consumption of first and second quarters separately, so that we can arrive to a solution.

The consumption of first quarter = Budgeted production × required kg

                                                   = 45,000 × 2

                                                   = 90,000 kg

The consumption of second quarter = Budgeted production × required kg

                                                   = 30,000 × 2

                                                   = 60,000 kg

The ending raw material inventory = 30% of second quarter

                                                      = 30% × 60,000

                                                      = 18,000 kg

Now put the formula to find out the purchase amount. The formula is shown below:

Raw material consumption = Opening raw material inventory + purchase of raw material - ending raw material inventory

where,

beginning inventory = 18,000 kg

90,000 = 18,000 + purchase - 18,000

So, the purchase is 90,000 kg

The question has asked the amount in kg so cost per kg is irrelevant.

Hence, the budgeted materials need in kg. in the first quarter is 90,000 kg

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

$87,200

Explanation:

The computation of the total amount of merchandise purchase is shown below:

As we know that

Cost of goods sold = Beginning merchandise inventory + purchase of merchandise - ending merchandise inventory

$69,400 = $11,600 +  purchase of merchandise - $29,400

$69,400 = -$17,800 + purchase of merchandise

So, purchase value of merchandise is

= $69,400 + $17,800

= $87,200

A company purchased $3,600 worth of merchandise. transportation costs were an additional $315. the company later returned $250 w
Anestetic [448]

Answer: $3,564.50

Explanation:

The total amount that the company will pay for the merchandise is the net cost of the merchandise, less a 3% cash discount, plus the transportation costs. The cash discount normally only applies to the merchandise and not the transportation costs.

The cost of the merchandise is $3,600 less the $250 refund, which equals $3,350. With a 3% cash discount they will pay 97% of this amount, which is $3,249.50. After adding the additional transportation charge of $315, the total amount to be paid is $3,564.50.
