Answer:
Weighted average cost per unit = $10.10
Explanation:
We know,
Under weighted average unit cost, the cost for purchased inventory = Total inventory costs ÷ total inventory in units
Given,
Total inventory in units = 205 + 310 = 515 units
Total inventory costs = (205 units × $9.50) + (310 units × $10.50)
= $1,947.50 + $3,255 = $5,202.50
Therefore,
Weighted average cost per unit = $5,202.50 ÷ 515 units
Weighted average cost per unit = $10.10
Therefore, the company will use this cost per unit to determine cost of goods sold and ending inventory.
Answer:
When a company sells different securities together (this usually happens during mergers and acquisitions):
- and the price of all the securities is not certain, the incremental method will first allocate proceeds to the sale of securities whose price is actually certain. The remaining proceeds will be allocated to the securities whose price is uncertain. E.g. total sales $10 million, stocks worth $5 million were sold and bonds worth ? million were sold. The company will allocate $5 million to stocks and $5 million to bonds.
- and the price of all the securities is certain, the proportional method allocates the sales proceeds proportionally among the different securities sold. E.g. total sales $10 million, stocks worth $5 million were sold and bonds worth $3 million were sold. The company will allocate ($5/$8) x $10 million = $6.25 million to stocks and $3.75 to bonds.
Answer: No, this was merely Carl's opinion.
Explanation:
Labelling a statement as an opinion generally protects the person who said it from defamation suits however this is not always the case.
If the opinion is based on disclosed and well known facts, the action is free of defamatory or libel charges.
This seems to be the case in this scenario as his column seems to be based on the performances for the year.
Bottomline is, Stella cannot sue Carl for libel as it is his opinion.
